# Find CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam

Locate `CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam` in CS2 server.dll or server.so using IDA Pro MCP tools.

## Method

1. Search for the debug string:
   ```
   mcp__ida-pro-mcp__find_regex pattern="ChangeTeam\(\) CTMDBG"
   ```

2. Get cross-references to the string:
   ```
   mcp__ida-pro-mcp__xrefs_to addrs="<string_addr>"
   ```

3. Decompile the referencing function:
   ```
   mcp__ida-pro-mcp__decompile addr="<function_addr>"
   ```

4. Rename the function:
   ```
   mcp__ida-pro-mcp__rename batch={"func": [{"addr": "<function_addr>", "name": "CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam"}]}
   ```

5. Find VTable and Calculate Offset:

  **ALWAYS** Use SKILL `/get-vtable-index` to get vtable offset and index for the function.

   VTable class name: `CCSPlayerController`

6. Generate and validate unique signature:

   **ALWAYS** Use SKILL `/generate-signature-for-function` to generate a robust and unique signature for `CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam`.

7. Write IDA analysis output as YAML beside the binary:

   **ALWAYS** Use SKILL `/write-vfunc-as-yaml` to write the analysis results for `CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam`.

   Required parameters:
   - `func_name`: `CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam`
   - `func_addr`: The function address from step 3
   - `func_sig`: The validated signature from step 6

   VTable parameters (when this is a virtual function):
   - `vtable_name`: `CCSPlayerController`
   - `vfunc_offset`: The offset from step 5
   - `vfunc_index`: The index from step 5

## Signature Pattern

The function contains a debug log call with format string:
```
"%s<%i><%s><%s>" ChangeTeam() CTMDBG , team %d, req team %d willSwitch %d, %.2f
```

## Function Characteristics

- **Parameters**: `(this, team_id)` where `this` is CCSPlayerController pointer, `team_id` is the target team

## Team IDs

- `0`: Unassigned
- `1`: Spectator
- `2`: Terrorist
- `3`: Counter-Terrorist

## VTable Information

- **VTable Name**: `CCSPlayerController::\`vftable'`
- **VTable Mangled Name**: `??_7CCSPlayerController@@6B@`
- **VTable Index**: 102 (0x66) - This can change when game updates.
- **VTable Offset**: 0x330  - This can change when game updates.

* Note that for `server.so`, The first 16 bytes of "vftable" are for RTTI. the real vftable =  `_ZTV19CCSPlayerController (0x221e390)` + `0x10` = `0x221e3A0`.

## Output YAML Format

The output YAML filename depends on the platform:
- `server.dll` → `CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam.windows.yaml`
- `server.so` → `CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam.linux.yaml`
