When Player Spawns, if x=1 then give weapon

[Brodster55]

I'm trying to make it so when a player spawns they are given a weapon if a certain variable equals 1. But it doesn't seem to work..

I tried using PlayerLoadOut and PlayerInitialSpawn..

How would I do this

[matt2458]

Is this variable set per-player or globally?
If it is per player use:[lua]function Loadout( ply )
if ply.VariableName == 1 then
ply:Give("weapon_shotgun") //what gun you want to give
end
end
hook.Add( "PlayerLoadout", "Loadout", Loadout)[/lua]
Otherwise: [lua]function Loadout( ply )
if VariableName == 1 then
ply:Give("weapon_shotgun") //what gun you want to give
end
end
hook.Add( "PlayerLoadout", "Loadout", Loadout)[/lua] should work fine

Also, if you want to override the gamemode's default PlayerLoadout, so the player is [B]only[/B] given the weapons you add in the callback, just return true.

[Brodster55]

[lua]function PlayersLoadout( ply )

local GlockVar = ply:GetPData( "PermGlockVar" )

if GlockVar == 1 then
ply:Give("weapon_real_cs_glock18")
end
end
[/lua]

GlockVar is equal to 1... and I don't get a gun.

You forgot the most important part.

[lua]
hook.Add( "PlayerLoadout", "whatever", PlayersLoadout)
[/lua]
Also, make sure player:GetPData("PermGlockVar") really is returning 1, and not "1", or something else.

I'm sure that pdata converts numbers to strings, so you would have to do 'if tonumber(GlockVar) == 1 then'
