Thermal Detonator or grenade for starwars is shooting insted of throwing grenade - Developers

Ok so Iv recently been configuring/developing for this server and someone suggested that we have grenades. Me being the Star Wars savvy guy I knew exactly what to do. So I used a base from this guy and the model is showing in the view-model but the world-model is showing a pistol hold type. Which inst how I coded it. Also it shoots like a pistol/shotgun which is weird and it inst showing any errors. Iv been looking through the code and changed it multiple time in the 3-4 hours spent on it and just said ok I need sleep. So I need help if someone would be kind enough. UPDATE/EDIT Ok got it working! Now I get an error when I try to spawn it with a tool gun. Here is the error also I update the new code below [CODE][ERROR] addons/thermalgernade/lua/weapons/sstw_weapon_thermaldetonator/shared.lua:109: attempt to call method 'DrawViewModel' (a nil value) 1.

You're never calling [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Weapon/SetHoldType]Weapon:SetHoldType[/url], and you didn't overwrite [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/WEAPON/PrimaryAttack]SWEP:PrimaryAttack[/url], so it just uses the default that shoots bullets.

Dang it, I knew something was missing. Thank you for the help man I really do appreciate it!

Oops! I updated the situation under the update/edit. got some errors Iv been trying to fix for hours! Hehe. Any help?

[img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Player/DrawViewModel]Player:DrawViewModel[/url] is serverside only, you're calling it shared.

Wow another great catch by the AwfulRanger :happy: Thanks dude now everything is working! Again really appreciate it! Happy Coding!
