Crate Maker 2.0

[find me]

[highlight][b][u]Because of all the crap I've been offering to do lately I will be putting this project on hold for awhile. Although I put a download for the next version I was working on. Now you can set health and check if the crate is a super mystery box like the pictures below show.[/u][/b][/highlight]

Yes there is, [url]http://garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=5422[/url] and because there is another one doesn't make it stolen. Also if you download it and read what it says all the code is free for anyone to reuse as long as credit is given to mahalis. Although I didn't reuse his code I made my own.

[Kovacs]

I like the Mystery Box feature.

Thank you, if you like that you're going to like the super box. :D I'm not sure how it will be spawned, maybe a selection box in tool menu for right click.

Seems good, I like it bro.

[Mr. Bix]

Since you say you made the code, does it still crate players? If so, you'll have my download.

Not yet but I'll add that to the next update which will be here shortly. Of course it will be admin only that can crate players though.
In this next update a few things are setting crate health and other options in the crate maker menu.

YAY, you used my idea :D. Looks great, glad i could help.

[find me]

-snip- my fault wrong thread. I thought this was my flood gamemode thread ><

[QUOTE=Occlusion]YAY, you used my idea :D. Looks great, glad i could help.[/QUOTE]
But yea like I said give me ideas people I'm still making it.

[Venompapa]

find me:
Hi. This is very nice stool, but you can make func like Catdeamon Wraith harvester?
So players cannot put in Life Support storages this time :(
And little feature request :)
I think people wanna put more prop, health kit or weapon in one crate, so you can make it to select 5-6 max prop and put in crate?

[bassie]

If the vehicles can cause crashes, make them not be crate able, give a message that you can't do that instead if you can.

[Otoris]

Can you put a crate inside a crate inside a crate? Just a thought. :D

Good work though.

Well, you could always remove the line that prevents that and see what happens!

[hoot uk]

When you use it on vehicles the server crashes.

I always used to have fun with the original crate maker and teta bonita's nuke by firing the airstrike at the ground, catching it with the physgun and putting it into a crate. Then dial up a friend's stargate and throw it through. Hilarity ensues....

Open cratemaker.lua with notepad, and find the function IsReallyValid() (line 29). Add the line

if (tr.Entity:IsVehicle()) then return end

somewhere before the "return false"

Haha that's great.

Also, yea vehicles do crash and do what vir said to stop them from being crated.

Super mystery crate.
We need make a movie trailer about this.
2 kids found a super mystery crate.
What is in there?
A good thing or a bad thing.
Nobody knows.
Coming soon this summer.

How's about an Adv. Duplicator crate? That would be pretty amazing...you could crate whole contraptions instead of just single props or entities. I imagine it would mostly use the existing Adv. Duplicator code anyway so there wouldn't be that much extra work.

[flarn2006]

I think the mystery crate feature would be so much more fun (at least for me) if, instead of just NPCs and weapons, random props come out as well. Maybe only everyday objects, such as cooking pots, cash registers, telephones, watermelons, TV's, etc. Perhaps you can even provide options to switch between the current behavior, just props, or both. I hope you make it like this!
