Calling some code when player gets hurt

[gfwilliams]

Hi,

I've been playing around trying to add 'force feedback' to games with a shock machine controlled via Web Bluetooth, and QuakeJS looked like an awesome game to try and add it to.

Would it be possible for me to add such a thing? Is there anywhere obvious in the code that I could read the current player health from?

I had a quick look around but didn't find anything, and I have a feeling that Q3 uses a virtual machine for the game logic, so I'm not entirely certain if something like the health would be accessible in any meaningful way? The only thing I can think of right now is to try and intercept the draw calls for the HUD, but that's properly hacky.

Sorry for posting this as an 'issue', but I thought the answer might be of interest to others as well.

Thanks!

To do this, you would definitely have to modify the game source to call into the appropriate web APIs and recompile.
