Knockout script not working

[CGHippo]

Hey guys, I'm making a new gamemode with a bud of mine called LostRP.
Anyways, I'm working on a knockout script and its not working.

function GM:ScalePlayerDamage( ply, hitgroup, dmginfo )
	if ( hitgroup == HITGROUP_HEAD ) and ply:GetAttacker() and HasWeapon("weapon_fists") then

		ply:DrawMaterialOverlay( "models/props_c17/fisheyelens", -0.06 ) 
		ply:IsRagdoll() if false then ply:CreateRagdoll( timer.Simple( 20, function() ply.RagDoll = false end ) ) end
		timer.Simple( 20, function() ply.KnockedOut = false end )

	end
end

Anyone here know why? No errors, it just doesn't work.

try this:

function GM:ScalePlayerDamage( ply, hitgroup, dmginfo )
	if ( hitgroup == HITGROUP_HEAD ) and ply:GetAttacker() and HasWeapon("weapon_fists") then
		if ply.KnockedOut then return end
		ply:DrawMaterialOverlay( "models/props_c17/fisheyelens", -0.06 )
		if !ply:GetRagdollEntity() then
			ply:CreateRagdoll()
		end
		ply.KnockedOut = true
		timer.Simple(20, function()
			ply.KnockedOut = false
			ply:GetRagdollEntity():Remove()
		end)

	end
end

Didn't work. No errors though. But still thank you

try using the playerhurt hook instead: [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/GM/PlayerHurt]GM/PlayerHurt[/url]

function GM:ScalePlayerDamage( ply, hitgroup, dmginfo )
        if( ply:IsPlayer() and dmginfo:GetAttacker():IsPlayer() and dmginfo:GetAttacker():GetActiveWeapon():GetClass("weapon_fists" ) ) then
                ply:CreateRagdoll()
                timer.Simple( 20, function()
                        local ent = ply:GetRagdollEntity()
                        local pos = ent:GetPos()
                        ent:Remove()
                        ply:Spawn()
                        ply:SetPos( pos )
                end )
        end
end
hook.Add("ScalePlayerDamage", "Some Name", ScalePlayerDamage)

Sorry to bump but I'm still having major problems to get this to work,
I've tried prints, reworking the code, almost everything. Its still not working. It's in init.lua and I just can't get it to work. Anyone here know a fix? :)

You're calling Scale Player Damage twice here, by the way.

don't use (hook.Add("ScalePlayerDamage", "Some Name", ScalePlayerDamage))
or remove the GM from your function and make it local V:
