ents.FindByClass

[jSherz]

I am having trouble using [b][url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/?title=Ents.FindByClass]Ents.FindByClass [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img][/url][/b].

-Client- When I use:

local AllDoors = ents.FindByClass("*door*")

I get this:

Seems it doesn't like wildcards in the beginning of the string, just search for them one class at a time and merge the returned tables.

[lua]
function ents.GetDoors()
local doors = {}
for k,v in pairs(ents.GetAll()) do
if( string.match(string.lower(v:GetClass()), "door") ) then
table.insert(doors, v)
end
end
return doors
end
AllDoors = ents.GetDoors();
