Question about printers

[dogs eater]

Sometimes printers blow automatic, How to disable that?

[Killervalon]

I assume you're talking about DarkRP?

Yes

[Bo98]

So you want printers that don't blow up unless shot?

Yeah

[Example]

Take out the random.math and the stuff that makes it overheat.

[lua]
function ENT:OnTakeDamage(dmg)
if self.burningup then return end

self.damage = (self.damage or 100) - dmg:GetDamage()
if self.damage <= 0 then
local rnd = math.random(1, 10)
if rnd < 3 then
self:BurstIntoFlames()
else
self:Destruct()
self:Remove()
end
end
end

function ENT:Destruct()
local vPoint = self:GetPos()
local effectdata = EffectData()
effectdata:SetStart(vPoint)
effectdata:SetOrigin(vPoint)
effectdata:SetScale(1)
util.Effect("Explosion", effectdata)
GAMEMODE:Notify(self:Getowning_ent(), 1, 4, "Your normal money printer has exploded!")
end

function ENT:BurstIntoFlames()
GAMEMODE:Notify(self:Getowning_ent(), 0, 4, "Your money printer is overheating!")
self.burningup = true
local burntime = math.random(8, 18)
self:Ignite(burntime, 0)
timer.Simple(burntime, function() self:Fireball() end)
end

function ENT:Fireball()
if not self:IsOnFire() then self.burningup = false return end
local dist = math.random(20, 280) -- Explosion radius
self:Destruct()
for k, v in pairs(ents.FindInSphere(self:GetPos(), dist)) do
if not v:IsPlayer() and not v:IsWeapon() and v:GetClass() ~= "predicted_viewmodel" and not v.IsMoneyPrinter then
v:Ignite(math.random(5, 22), 0)
elseif v:IsPlayer() then
local distance = v:GetPos():Distance(self:GetPos())
v:TakeDamage(distance / dist * 100, self, self)
end
end
self:Remove()
end[/lua]

Now i can't blow the printers.

[Example]

Sorry, my mistake, keep the following in the lua:
[lua]function ENT:Destruct()
local vPoint = self:GetPos()
local effectdata = EffectData()
effectdata:SetStart(vPoint)
effectdata:SetOrigin(vPoint)
effectdata:SetScale(1)
util.Effect("Explosion", effectdata)
GAMEMODE:Notify(self:Getowning_ent(), 1, 4, "Your normal money printer has exploded!")
end[/lua]

Still can't blow it, This is my printer's init.lua

[lua]-- RRPX Money Printer reworked for DarkRP by philxyz
AddCSLuaFile("cl_init.lua")
AddCSLuaFile("shared.lua")
include("shared.lua")

ENT.SeizeReward = 950

local PrintMore

local phys = self:GetPhysicsObject()
phys:Wake()

self.sparking = false
self.damage = 100
self.IsMoneyPrinter = true
timer.Simple(math.random(60, 61), function() PrintMore(self) end)
end

function ENT:OnTakeDamage(dmg)
if self.burningup then return end

self.damage = (self.damage or 100) - dmg:GetDamage()

end

function ENT:Destruct()
local vPoint = self:GetPos()
local effectdata = EffectData()
effectdata:SetStart(vPoint)
effectdata:SetOrigin(vPoint)
effectdata:SetScale(1)

if not IsValid(ent) then return end

end)
end

end

function ENT:Think()

if self:WaterLevel() > 0 then
self:Destruct()
self:Remove()
return
end

if not self.sparking then return end

local effectdata = EffectData()

Where to start... first of all, as I said on your other DarkRP threads. THIS IS NOT THE PLACE. Nor is it the place for lua scripting help.

As for the anwser to your question. Why the fuck did you modify the ENT:OnTakeDamage? You are the one that fucked it up. Example gave you what you needed, minus the part where he took out ENT:Destruct.

[B][I][U]Do not come back[/U][/I][/B] with your DarkRP questions. Go put them in the DarkRP Mega thread. If you have a legitimate issue regarding the game, by all means post them here, otherwise stay out.
