I was wondering if there is a notify for when a projectile is fired, the same way like there's one for grenade's

Code Snippet

Plaintext

		self waittill( "grenade_fire", grenade, weapName );

i've tried using that on a projectile weapon, but it doesn't seem to work.
I know that there's is one for projectile-impacts:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

		self waittill("projectile_impact", weaponName, impact);

But i would like to get the projectile while it's in mid-air..

There also is,

Code Snippet

Plaintext

self waittill("weapon_fired");

Which notifies when you shoot any weapons that is being fired with left mouse click. So this notify is being detected when you shoot.

yeh, i also knew that one. But as far as i know that doesn't allow me to get the projectile same way like the grenade_fired does?

I'm looking for something like:
( i know this one doesn't exist, it's just an example )

Code Snippet

Plaintext

  self waittill( "projectile_fired", weapname, projectile )

So that it returns the projectile itself right after it's being fired, instead of waiting for the impact..

Are you trying to spawn something while it's in mid-air in the projectile? If so then maybe you can just spawn or whatever in front of the player through angles/vectors after you shot?

And yea I don't know if there's any other way to get the projectile like that, I'm just trying to give other solutions that could work too.

Think i'll just keep it a grenade-weapon then. That way seems to work, would have been just a bit nicer if it worked with projectile's too
