Real Godmode

[Bubka3]

I'm currently using the below code, yet I don't know what type of godmode this provides. I can still die by cars and barrel myself.

[lua]local function ccGodModeOn( ply )
if not ply:HasPriv(ADMIN) then ply:PrintMessage(2, string.format(LANGUAGE.need_admin, "rp_godmodeon"))
return
end
if ply:HasPriv(ADMIN) then
ply:GodEnable()
end
end
concommand.Add("rp_godmodeon", ccGodModeOn)

local function ccGodModeOff( ply )
if not ply:HasPriv(ADMIN) then ply:PrintMessage(2, string.format(LANGUAGE.need_admin, "rp_godmodeoff"))
return
end

if ply:HasPriv(ADMIN) then
ply:GodDisable()
end
end
concommand.Add("rp_godmodeon", ccGodModeOff)[/lua]

[lua]function GM:EntityTakeDamage( t_Entity, t_Inflictor, t_Attacker, t_DamageAmount )

if ( t_Ent:IsPlayer() && t_Ent:GetNetworkedBool( "IsGod" ) ) then
return;
end

end[/lua]

Now just make something to toggle "IsGod".

[Bubka3]

I toggled IsGod however:

[lua]
[gamemode\server\gamemode_functions.lua:871] attempt to index global 't_Ent' (a nil value)(Hook: EntityTakeDamage)
[gamemode\server\gamemode_functions.lua:871] attempt to index global 't_Ent' (a nil value)(Hook: EntityTakeDamage)
[/lua]

[.\\Shadow}]

Change t_Entity to t_Ent (line 1), or t_Ent to t_Entity (line 3). Either will work.

[Bubka3]

Now, I just need to figure out the toggle. My attempt of ply:IsGod() did not go so well. ^_^

[lua]
concommand.Add("rp_godmodeon", ccGodModeOn)
concommand.Add("rp_godmodeon", ccGodModeOff)
[/lua]

Be best to use PlayerShouldTakeDamage.

Oh wow I'm sorry, my bad. I didn't realize I did that.

[lua]function GM:EntityTakeDamage( t_Entity, t_Inflictor, t_Attacker, t_DamageAmount )

if ( t_Entity:IsPlayer() && t_Entity:GetNetworkedBool( "IsGod" ) ) then
return;
end

end[/lua]

There are multiple ways you could toggle it, although I recommend using the new net library that's in Garry's Mod 13 (Beta).

If you were to do so, then please examine and process the following:

[b]Serverside:[/b]

[lua]util.AddNetworkString( "ToggleGodmode" );

net.Receive( "ToggleGodmode", function( )

local t_Player = net.ReadEntity();

-- Is the requesting entity valid, and a player?
if ( IsValid( t_Player ) && t_Player:IsPlayer() ) then

-- If it is a valid player, then we make sure they're at least an administrator.

-- You can put any type of check in here, you could even add another variable
-- to the networked message like "t_Password", so the player could either be
-- an admin, or provide a correct password.
if ( t_Player:IsAdmin() ) then

-- Basically what this does is, it sets the networked boolean "IsGod" to
-- opposite of what it currently is.

-- If it doesn't exist, that just means it'll return true and enable it
-- on the first request.
t_Player:SetNWBool( "IsGod", !t_Player:GetNWBool( "IsGod" ) );

-- Not something you really need, but an example of how you could display
-- to the server's console that somebody toggled godmode on themself.
MsgN( "Player " .. t_Player:Nick() .. " toggled godmode on themself. (Active = " .. t_Player:GetNWBool( "IsGod" ) .. ")" );

end

end

end );[/lua]

[b]Clientside:[/b]

[lua]concommand.Add( "rp_godmode", function( )

net.Start( "ToggleGodmode" );
net.WriteEntity( LocalPlayer() );
net.SendToServer();

end );[/lua]

Excuse my broad usage of spaces, I find it much easier to read it when there are larger spaces.

Also I usually start non-global variables with 't_' defining that they're temporary, because I can't stand capitalized variables.

The sad part is, even with you posting this, it took me 5x times reading it over to understand. :P

@DaneSomdahl, I will use the network method when GMOD 13 is out from beta, thanks! :D

Possibly because said killers use :Kill and do not apply damage.

[QUOTE=Wizard of Ass;37716562]Possibly because said killers use :Kill and do not apply damage.[/QUOTE]

Even so, you could still use the same networked boolean to make the player unable to die that way as well.

[Wizard of Ass]

No lol.

Kill() simply kills a player, there is no damage applies thus this hook is pointless.
