Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description

Description

setnamecallmethod changes the method name that will be used for the current __namecall invocation. This allows you to redirect method calls to different methods.

Example

local oldNamecall
oldNamecall = hookmetamethod(game, "__namecall", newcclosure(function(self, ...)
    local method = getnamecallmethod()
    
    -- Redirect Kick to a harmless method
    if method == "Kick" then
        setnamecallmethod("GetFullName")
        return oldNamecall(self, ...)
    end
    
    return oldNamecall(self, ...)
end))

Spoofing Example

local oldNamecall
oldNamecall = hookmetamethod(game, "__namecall", newcclosure(function(self, ...)
    local method = getnamecallmethod()
    
    -- Change FireServer to something else for debugging
    if method == "FireServer" then
        print("FireServer intercepted, redirecting...")
        setnamecallmethod("Fire")
    end
    
    return oldNamecall(self, ...)
end))

Notes

Only works inside __namecall hooks
The change only affects the current call

getnamecallmethod - Get current method
hookmetamethod - Hook metamethods
