Get the spread vector of the current weapon

[yakahughes]

Would anyone know how to get the spread vector of the currently equipped weapon?

I have tried

[cpp]
CBaseCombatWeapon* weap = GetActiveWeapon();

Vector v = weap->GetBulletSpread();

Msg("%i %i %i\n", v.x, v.y, v.z);
[/cpp]

which seemed to be the obvious way to do it but it gives the same erroneous result no matter which weapon is equipped:

1610612736 -1046898280 -2147483648

What's the proper way?

You should've mentioned in the title that this was about Source.

Make sure you're using the right format specifiers in the Msg format string, that could be the problem (I don't know the Vector internals so I can't tell).

something else might not be right. the numbers would be 3.6893488e19, -0.22500002, and -0.0.

Sorry, I thought it was implied, but I forgot this isn't a forum specifically for source.

As for the format specifiers, I was using the wrong ones since the coordinates are float, not int, but changing the format spec to %f just gave an erroneous value as a float:

-107374104.000000 -107374176.000000 -107374176.000000

Is there any documentation on what format it should be? That's really the only problem.

No, the problem is that it returns bad values [i]and[/i] those bad values do not change when I switch weapons.
