give to someone weapon

[pyro199931]

hey everyone im trying to make simple script to learn lua and stuff like that
but i cant

i want to make console command like

giveweapon <name> <weapon>

i made script but its not that i want

autorun/server/sv_weapon.lua :

util.AddNetworkString("Weapon")
net.Receive("Weapon", function(length, ply)
local TheWeapon = net.ReadString()

if TheWeapon == "weapon" then
	ply:Give(WEAPON_NAME)
end
end)

autorun/client/cl_weapon.lua :

function weapon()

net.Start("Weapon")

			net.WriteString("weapon")
			
net.SendToServer()

end
concommand.Add("giveweapon", weapon)

autorun/config.lua :

WEAPON_NAME = "manhack_welder"

( sorry my english is bad )

The command 'give' is already implemented. I believe you use it 'give NameOfPlayer weapon_rpg'

You don't need any client side scripts to make this happen

[B]autorun/server/sv_weapon.lua[/B]

[lua]local function cc_giveWeapon( pl, cmd, args ) local wep = args[1];
local pl = findPlayer( args[2] );

if ( pl:IsPlayer() ) then
pl:Give( wep );
end
end
concommand.Add( "giveweapon", cc_giveWeapon );

local function findPlayer( name )
for k, v in pairs( player.GetAll() ) do
if ( string.lower(v:Nick()) == string.lower(name) ) then
return v;
end
end
end[/lua]
