Get a bone as an entity

[runamagic]

Hey guys, I need your help.

I'm working on a gamemode and I wanna add armor to it, so I look for bones. I found a command Entity:LookupBone() but this return an integer which is good for some command like Entity:GetBonePosition() but I wanna parent a prop or an entity to it.

Any idea?

Bones are no entities, you can parent to attachments though.

[lua]
local function Parent_Hologram(holo, ent, bone, attachment)
if ent:GetParent() and ent:GetParent():IsValid() and ent:GetParent() == holo.ent then return end

holo.ent:SetParent(ent)

if bone != nil then
holo.ent:SetParentPhysNum(bone)
end
if attachment != nil then
holo.ent:Fire("SetParentAttachmentMaintainOffset", attachment, 0.01)
end
end
[/lua]
