I saw someone saying in another thread:
[quote]It's ply, not pl[/quote]

that is funny
anyway looks like your doing everything right but we need more code

[werewolf0020]

Well heres it

AddCSLuaFile( "cl_init.lua" )
AddCSLuaFile( "shared.lua" )

include( 'shared.lua' )

// Serverside only stuff goes here

/*---------------------------------------------------------
Name: gamemode:PlayerLoadout( )
Desc: Give the player the default spawning weapons/ammo
---------------------------------------------------------*/

function GM:PlayerLoadOut( pl )

pl:StripWeapons()
pl:Give( "empty_weapon" )

end

function GM:OnNPCKilled( victim, killer, weapon)
local RandomNumber= math.random(1,5)
local SpawnHight = 124
local NpcPos = victim:GetPos()
if RandomNumber == 1 then
local Drop = ents.Create("weapon_scar")
Drop:SetPos(NpcPos+Vector(0,0,SpawnHight))
Drop:Spawn()
Drop:Activate()
elseif RandomNumber == 2 then
local Drop = ents.Create("weapon_p90")
Drop:SetPos(NpcPos+Vector(0,0,SpawnHight))
Drop:Spawn()
Drop:Activate()
elseif RandomNumber == 3 then
local Drop = ents.Create("Commando")
Drop:SetPos(NpcPos+Vector(0,0,SpawnHight))
Drop:Spawn()
Drop:Activate()
end
end

And the gamemode works fine with pl:StripWeapons() removed right?

[werewolf0020]

even deleting GM:PlayerLoadout function and letting only the second one(the npc thing)

it crashes! maybe should i add on my shared.lua DeriveGamemode( "sandbox" ) ?

[|FlapJack|]

pl:StripWeapons() might call GAMEMODE.PlayerLoadout

No promises whether or not it does, but that would make sense.

[werewolf0020]

mmmm i find one more problem if i load the gamemode it crash if i load it again it crashes but if i load it a THIRD time it works

this is a too messy!!!!!!!!!!!

Try changing:
[lua]function GM:PlayerLoadOut( pl )[/lua]
to
[lua]function GM:PlayerLoadout( pl )[/lua]

Actually, it does matter. It's whatever you put in the function arguments (the parentheses).

You could put retard and call retard:StripWeapons() and it would be the same thing.
