SetPlayerHealth(health) - assign a new health value to the player (total health).
AddPlayerHealth(health) - adds additional health to the player
HurtPlayer(e,v) - injure the player, great for custom objects

Not sure there is a way to actually get the current health value but the above commands should do most things in terms of player health... depends what you are trying to write a script to do...

Quote: "AddPlayerHealth(health) - adds additional health to the player"

just to clarify that actually needs an entity number not a value

also SetPlayerHealth isn't a good command to use as it doesn't have any noticeable effect in game if you set HP to 0 (or below) so use HurtPlayer(e,v) whenever possible

Quote: "HurtPlayer(e,g_PlayerHealth)"

would be the same as SetPlayerHealth(0) but would also have the desired effect of killing the player for example.

as avram said g_PlayerHealth stores the current HP

What I'm trying to do is to stop the player health going over the maximum when you take a medikit etc. In other words, if playerhealth > 500 then playerhealth = 500. I'll try g_PlayerHealth.

Thanks Avram - g_PlayerHealth works perfectly.
smallg - it seems as though SetPlayerHealth takes a health value, not an entity value, as the following script worked for me.

+ Code Snippet

function playerhealth_init(e)
end
	 
function playerhealth_main(e)
if g_PlayerHealth >250 then
	SetPlayerHealth(250)
	end
	end

Good script. I've used this to a Nurse character

+ Code Snippet

function medichealth_init(e)
end
      
function medichealth_main(e)
if g_PlayerHealth < 400 and PlayerDist < 200 then
    PlaySound(e,0)
    SetPlayerHealth(800)
    PromptDuration("I've restored your health",2000)
   end
 end

Smile today, tomorrow could be worse
