Parsing & handling custom net-messages

Finding interesting messages

You can use the build tag debugdemoinfocs to find interesting net-messages.

Example: go run myprogram.go -tags debugdemoinfocs | grep "UnhandledMessage" | sort | uniq -c

Sample output

      1 UnhandledMessage: id=10 name=svc_ClassInfo
      1 UnhandledMessage: id=14 name=svc_VoiceInit
   9651 UnhandledMessage: id=17 name=svc_Sounds
      1 UnhandledMessage: id=18 name=svc_SetView
    227 UnhandledMessage: id=21 name=svc_BSPDecal
  12705 UnhandledMessage: id=27 name=svc_TempEntities
    514 UnhandledMessage: id=28 name=svc_Prefetch
  85308 UnhandledMessage: id=4 name=net_Tick
      2 UnhandledMessage: id=5 name=net_StringCmd
      3 UnhandledMessage: id=6 name=net_SetConVar
      3 UnhandledMessage: id=7 name=net_SignonState
      1 UnhandledMessage: id=8 name=svc_ServerInfo

Configuring a NetMessageCreator

NetMessageCreators are needed for creating instances of net-messages that aren't parsed by default.

You need to add them to the ParserConfig.AdditionalNetMessageCreators map where the key is the message-ID as seen in the debug output.

Example: ConVar messages

import (
	dem "github.com/markus-wa/demoinfocs-golang"
	msg "github.com/markus-wa/demoinfocs-golang/msg"
)

cfg := dem.DefaultParserConfig
cfg.AdditionalNetMessageCreators = map[int]dem.NetMessageCreator{
	6: func() proto.Message {
		return new(msg.CNETMsg_SetConVar)
	},
}

Registering net-message handlers

To register a handler for net-messages Parser.RegisterNetMessageHandler() can be used.

When using Parser.ParseToEnd() net-messages and events are dispatched asynchronously. To get around this you can use Parser.ParseNextFrame() instead.

Example:

p.RegisterNetMessageHandler(func(m *msg.CNETMsg_SetConVar) {
	for _, cvar := range m.Convars.Cvars {
		fmt.Println(fmt.Sprintf("cvar %s=%s", cvar.Name, cvar.Value))
	}
})
