Hi, I am trying to create a simple plugin that notifies players their name and map name when they join my server. I have this so far:
[CODE]
ply:ChatPrint("Welcome to Sycotic-Gaming | Sandbox #1, " .. LocalPlayer():GetName() .. " on " .. game.GetMap() .. " !")
end
end
[/CODE]
Am I missing something?
1. There's no function
2. You have too many ends.

What do I need to add as a function?

When do you want to print it?

On spawn, I have been at this for about 25 minutes and I keep getting <eof> errors.
[code]hook.Add( "PlayerInitialSpawn", "welcome", function( ply ) ply:ChatPrint("Welcome to Sycotic-Gaming | Sandbox #1, " .. LocalPlayer():GetName() .. " on " .. game.GetMap() .. " !") end )[/code]
Thank you!
Btw, what is the "welcome" part about? What does that do?

That's a hook identifier, you can name it anything.

Got it. I am new to the hook thing. Does it do what the literal definition of a hook says? Or does it do something completely opposite?

What do you mean by "definition?" If you mean the event, then it does exactly what is says, print it on a player's first spawn. Here's the hook documentation if you need it: [url]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/hook/Add[/url]

I must have worded it wrong, but that's what I was looking for. Thanks!
