"Is_Object_Visible(looker,objtolookat);

this might be the thing you search

obj->As_SoldierGameObj()->Is_Visible()

thx for the fast reply^^

is there a way just to check if a player is visible without an object who "looks" to the player?

i want let the spy can read the enemie's team chat
but i needa check to prevent normal SBHs to get the enemy team msgs

my idea to check for spy if objekt is created is down xD
its cus object gets created and after this it get its invisible status so i cant use it -.-

i think about edit the ssgm crate source to write the spy player id in to a file where the chat hook get its "spy info" what do i after spy is dead? i can recheck on the object destroyed or player leave event. but how can i single check the visibility of a player?

is my idea possible to send enemie's teamchat to a spy? xD if not i let the project die^^

EDIT: thx for the line ill check later^^

By "visible" it sounds like you're talking about whether an object is cloaked or not, not if it's simply visible to another object (I don't know that that even takes stealthing into account either). You could always make a Spy_Script then attach it to the spy when they pick up the crate and if you want to check if somebody's a spy, simply do

if (Is_Script_Attached(obj,"My_Spy_Script"))
{
   ...do stuff for spies
}

Is_Visible() refers to the ability of objects with AI on them (e.g. turrets and the Obelisk) to "see" an object and thereby target it.

Is_Rendered() can be used to check if an object is rendered or not.

Is_Stealth() will tell you if an object is stealthed or not.

Put this in a chat hook and it will send the enemy's team chat to any players that Commands->Set_Is_Visible has been used on.

	if (Type == TEXT_MESSAGE_TEAM) {
		int Team = Get_Player_Team(ID);
		cScTextObj *ChatEvent = 0;
		for (SLNode<SoldierGameObj> *z = GameObjManager::StarGameObjList.Head();z;z = z->Next()) {
			SoldierGameObj *Soldier = z->Data();
			if (!Soldier->Is_Visible() && Soldier->Get_Player_Type() != Team) {
				if (!ChatEvent) {
					ChatEvent = Send_Client_Text(Msg,TEXT_MESSAGE_TEAM,false,ID,-1,false,false);
				}
				ChatEvent->Set_Object_Dirty_Bits(Get_Player_ID(Soldier),NetworkObjectClass::BIT_CREATION);
			}
		}
	}
