GM:DrawDeathNotice

[dpoolas]

Is there anyway that i could make the draw deathnotice only for admins?

[SchumacherAlt]

if ( pl:IsAdmin() or pl:IsSuperAdmin() ) then
      return true
else
      return false
end

ugh... when i put that in i get this

ERROR: GAMEMODE:'HUDPaint' Failed: DarkRP\gamemode\cl_init.lua:59: attempt to index global 'ply' (a nil value)

Try LocalPlayer() instead of ply!

[dpoolas]

I don't know whats up with it is their anything else that will tell only admins who is killing who?

if( LocalPlayer():IsAdmin() or LocalPlayer():IsSuperAdmin()) then
LocalPlayer():ChatPrint(killer:GetName().." killed you")

end

You want to do this in init.lua:

[lua]function GM:DrawDeathNotice( ply )
if ply:IsPlayer() && ply:IsAdmin() then
return true
else
return false
end
[/lua]

or

[lua]function DeathNotice(ply)
if ply:IsPlayer() && ply:IsAdmin() then
return true
else
return false
end
hook.Add("DrawDeathNotice", "DeathNotice", DeathNotice)
[/lua]

Well, it depends if it's clientside or not. I'm not sure what library the hook belongs to. If clientside, use LocalPlayer():, if serverside, use pl:, but you need to make sure to add ( ply ) as the arguments.

Untested.

[lua]
local function DeathNotice(x, y, death, hud_deathnotice_time)
local ply = LocalPlayer()
if !ply:IsPlayer() || !ply:IsAdmin() then return false end
end

hook.Add("DrawDeathNotice", "DeathNotice", DeathNotice)
[/lua]

The sanity checks are probably not necessary.

I would just set hooks up in the Init.lua instead of having a massive cl_init file.
