How to preven gmod to changing the weapon via mouse wheel when E is pressed - Developers

So, here am I forum coding a better way of implementing the selection of the active point ID for the track assembly tool. [url]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=287012681[/url] I am doing this because I can select a piece faster when I first insert it in the database and then Use: ( Default E ) and the mouse scroll to select point ID, which is rather easier than going trough all of them via a right click. You can find the main code for this in my DEV branch here: [url]https://github.com/dvdvideo1234/TrackAssemblyTool/blob/dev/lua/weapons/gmod_tool/stools/trackassembly.lua#L1149-L1168[/url] The thing is when I press E everything works as expected besides changing of the weapon, which selects let's say ... physgun and everything become pointless and you cannot left-click to spawn a track. So, how can I tell gmod not to switch the weapon when E is pressed ? Thanks !

Is anyone here :D

I believe Wiremod wiring tool has something similiar You take a tool, and with mouse scroll wheel you can select what to wire And I think wire is on github, so you can find something helpful there

Allows to block commands."... So did you try it yet? Does it work?

[QUOTE=Trixas;50890202] So did you try it yet? Does it work?[/QUOTE] Sadly I did not have time to try it past evening. Today I will try to see that it will work ;) Though is it possible to call [url]https://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/input/IsKeyDown[/url] in the hook's function and is the bind key going to be different then, because I only need to disable scrolling when E is pressed?

I can be wrong tho, because my Lua knowledge is shit. Just trying to drop some ideas.

[QUOTE=Trixas;50894262]Good luck, inform me how it goes[/QUOTE] Astonishing success! Just as I want it .. Thought now When I hit E + some button nothing happens when the hook function returns true at the end. Left click is dead too Maybe because the function is over-ridden and other buttons are not set. The player can't even move properly as it returns true generally... [url]https://github.com/dvdvideo1234/TrackAssemblyTool/blob/dev/lua/autorun/trackassembly_init.lua#L102-L131[/url] Judging by the log [code] 36 >> CLIENT > TRACKASSEMBLY [LUA] POINT_SELECT(invnext): Success 37 >> CLIENT > TRACKASSEMBLY [LUA] POINT_SELECT(+use): Skipped 38 >> CLIENT > TRACKASSEMBLY [LUA] POINT_SELECT(+attack2): Skipped [/code] For all others it must return false, because they must not be overloaded Notice the if statement [code] if((oBind == "invnext") or (oBind == "invprev")) then [/code] which returns true at the end
