I mean like using a traceline in the engine. I have a traceline that I use in player_pre_think, and I can't find any way to make it false. It really is heavy on the framerate(I lose around 3-4 fps)

So I thought If I just did it in The engine, I might save some memory strains. And the function is to make the crosshairs turn red. when the traceline hits something that takes damage, the crosshair turns red.

Create a float crosshair_time, and use it to only run the traceline check at a fixed time interval, like 0.1 seconds.

The traceline is already done in engine code. All QC does is call the function. All the overhead isn't in the function call, it's what the function itself (which in the engine) is doing. Moving the traceline CALL to the engine won't solve anything.

In the other thread I posted an example of what mk suggested...
