I play on Rp servers and am usualy the gundealer. i have created my own gunshop with shipment crates. but i want to make it so i can wire a text screen to the box so i can see how many items are left in that crate. is that possiblE?
It would need a custom wire addon.

No, it would not.
E2 and findInBox(V,V)
findInBox ?
That finds entities inside a box, not lua variables.
well I assume the shipment crate has a networked int that shows it's amount of guns, and I bet E2 can get that.
E2 can't get networked ints.
I suppose the only logical way is get an E2 to detect when you press E on the box, and subtract 1 every time, The hard part is i guess OP knows shit about wire let alone E2.
Oh, I see what you mean now.
Make a box, put crate in, shoot crate.
No I don't know a thing about wire, I can make a few things in wire but I just want it to read what I can see whn I look at the shipment, it comes up something like
10 x M4
that's what I want wire to read and display on a text screen.
You would need a E2 extension to read shipment contents. I'll see if I can find one...
EDIT:
Here we are:
[url]http://divranspack.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/%20divranspack/Divrans%20various%20E2%20Plugins/darkrpfunctions.lua[/url]
Goes in :
addons\wire\lua\entities\gmod_wire_expression2\core\custom
I'll try a quick E2 with that extension.
[code]
@name Lol Shipments
@outputs String:string
runOnTick(1)
findIncludeClass("spawned_shipment")
findInSphere(entity():pos(),200)
Crate=find()
if (Crate) {
String="Crate holds "+Crate:shipmentAmount()+" "+Crate:shipmentContents()+"s"
}
[/code]
Should work. Put it by a crate, wire String to a text screen.
