How to get players position on doclick?

[ZeroToHero]

Hi I am wondering how to get a players positions as soon as he/she presses a dbutton. I am not wanting to continusly get his/hers location but just the location where they were when they pressed the dbutton. How would I do that. Here is the code I got.

	button.DoClick = function()
            playerpos = ? 
	end

Be aware it returns 2 values ( the x and y position )

I think you misread me. I meant the location in the 3D world. Not their mouse location.

I guess they mean the literal position of the player, as of [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Entity/GetPos]Entity:GetPos[/url]

Yeah but how do I get the ent that pressed the button

If uppon pressing the button, the action you want the player to make should influence something serverside/on other players, you should use the [URL="http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Net_Library_Usage"]Net library[/URL]
If you just want to store the information on the client that presses the button, then use [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Global/LocalPlayer]LocalPlayer[/url]

GetPos Is shared, there's no need of networking it

I said the thing about networking for the server to get the pos of the client, not for the client to send a vector which any script kiddie can "hack" if they find the source code
