Hi,
I am trying to c_scan from my player but it always returns the Weapon entity that is attached to his hand.
How can I tell the C_scan to ignore the weapon?!
I don't care!

There is no IGNORE_PASSABLE with c_scan.
Maybe (not tested) you can use SCAN_LIMIT and not use ENABLE_SCAN with the scanned entites?

From the manual:
IGNORE_PASSABLE
A7.2 LC
Ignores entities with the PASSABLE flag; to be combined with SCAN_ENTS.
IGNORE_FLAG2
A7.2 LC
Ignores entities with FLAG2; to be combined with SCAN_ENTS.
Further:
"To prevent that a scanning entity triggers itself, set IGNORE_ME.
To ignore a certain entity, set me or you to the entity pointer."
Hope this helps.
no science involved

Would you be that kind to tell me what manual you're using?
My A7.70 did not specify IGNORE_PASSABLE nor IGNORE_FLAG2 for c_scan.
[edit] - i see the german manual is out of date...

I would go for what one point that fogman mentioned.
Set the YOU pointer to the players weapon entity before the scan,
and have IGNORE_YOU in the scan flags.

I don't know why non of them works?!
I tried whatever you mentioned even before I ask it here.
I mean when I c_scan and ignored the passable or flag2 or ignored the you entity this code still runs:
c_scan(my.x,my.pan,vector(180,0,1000),ignore_me|ignore_passable);
if (you==weapon)
{
exit;
}
But it shouldn't run.
I don't care!

try this.
you = weapon;
var dist = c_scan(my.x,my.pan,vector(180,0,1000),scan_ents|ignore_me|ignore_you|ignore_passable);
if(dist!=0)
{
//do something cause "you" is NOW the closest entity, which isnt weapon.
}
if(dist==0)
{
//do nothing, cause nothing was found and weapon is still in the "you" pointer.
}
