Taking legit requests

[QUOTE=Feihc;29932688]The problem is there isn't a whole lot we can do to check the prop itself.
There's physobj:IsPenetrating() but I don't believe that registers the world.
You could use the vertex module and check each point to see if its position is in the world, but that would get really slow really fast.[/QUOTE]

I expect that the vertex module would work wonders for quads and basic shapes. Though for barrels I do see where you are coming from. Quite a few vertices in such a simple object if I remember the wireframe. Kind of annoying if that function doesn't work with the world, it would be useful when I think about it.

Can you make me a function that if a persons health is below 20, they receive messeges at a time rate of about every 10 seconds, the message saying "You health has reached critical condition, seek medical attention"

[Science]

[QUOTE=hexpunK;29932624]Actually, it pretty much is, just Tools have access to certain Hooks and Functions that SWEPs don't as they are not needed. They are both weapons, they are both scripted.

Plus what you are asking for is basically a duplicator.[/QUOTE]
No. A duplicator is just a right click to copy the prop and left click to spawn.
My weapon is a left click to spawn a barrel.
Also, that won't be the final use for it, but it will be the base of it.

Request: Better Portal Turret SENT. I've been looking for one for a portal-themed gamemode I've been working on, but most are just combine turrets with the portal model, or just don't work.
Tried making my own, couldn't get it to aim right.

Should have a nice eye-laser, like effects/redlaser1.

If you're going to modify it then why not just make the base yourself as well :colbert:

Thought about making one a while back. I might do this one - takes a bit more work than most other requests though. Will keep it in mind

here ya go
[lua]

hook.Add("Think", "LowHealthWarning", function()
for k, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
v.LastWarned = v.LastWarned or 0
if v:Alive() then
if v:Health() <= 20 then
if v.LastWarned <= CurTime() then
v:ChatPrint("Your health has reached critical levels. Seek medical attention")
v.LastWarned = CurTime() + 10
end
end
end
end
end)
[/lua]

• A Pistol View And World Model
• A Barrel To Be Displayed where ever the player looks
• A 'Ghosted' Affect on the barrel so it doesnt collide and doesnt completely block your view
• Left Click Spawns A Barrel At That Position
• Right Click Rotates The Ghosted Barrel

[B]Extras[/B]
• If the barrel is colliding with something make it red and not able to spawn and green if its free of anything

Thank you.

hopefully you don't mind making one last request for me:p

Could you create a button(just parent it to PaintPanel, set the pos typically anywhere, ill fix that) where if a player clicks on it runs anothr function that does this: If ran, it will say in the servers chat "(player/killer) Has killed (Player/victim).

If you could do that for me, it would be awesome. You don't really have to create the button, as i can work on that but the function it will run on doclick would be great.

What exactly do you mean? Just a chat print for all players when you press said button? How are you getting the players?

[zynga]

Alright, what I'm saying is when the button is pushed, it prints whatever it says into the chatbox(every can see it).
And what i want it to print is something like, "player1" has killed "player2".

[QUOTE]How are you getting the players?[/QUOTE]
Ah sorry forgot about that, currently i have no way of getting the players.
If you could add this to it, it would be great.

Sorry if im asking for to much.

Still not entirely sure what you're after :|
I saw your other thread that kind of covered this same topic, did that not resolve it?

[zynga]

Oh no, that was something else.

Basically what im doing is making a menu pop up when the player dies,
and one of the buttons is basically what im asking you to make.

All i want is for when the button is clicked, it prints in the servers chat, not anything like chatprint where its only visible to just the player , i want it visible to the whole server.

Lets say playerA kills playerB
Player B died right, so when he died he pushs the button to found out who killed him, and what it prints out is : (playerA Killed PlayerB") Type of thing.

Did that help?

I just want the button done though, as i'm working on the other parts for this death menu.

From what i can tell, it looks right. Thank you.

Here's a mildly entertaining comic that explains it more clearly than I can I think.

[url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1044980-Bodygroups-and-YOU[/url]

The major issue I have with it is that it only lets you choose one bodygroup and subgroup at a time...which becomes kind of clunky when you're trying to use multiple models that have multiple bodygroups and subgroups. I was hoping for something that lets you choose more than one of each at a time, or ideally something that would have a list of them available to choose from. I know this is just a side project for you though, so really any improvement you could do to it would be fantastic.

Can you make a map menu (for a server) where you can switch the map by clicking on the map. Something like Evolve's map menu...

[TheNeonCannon]

Any chance you could make a Fretta gamemode that's basically just the mg_ maps from CSS?

[alexojm]

I have a request that I think you might like and I have wanted for a long time.

Have you ever used the stacker tool and wanted to be able to use your mouse and make a line of props like in rts games.

What do I mean exactly ?

When stacking something you normally have to guess what number to put in for all angles and it can take a long time.

My solution is to make it so that the prop stacker follows your mouse like building a wall in a rts game. This way you can easily make things exactly where you want them to be. You drag out how many props you want and it just makes more accordingly. With the option to make it so when a new prop is being created it does not just simply stack another on you can have the prop slightly in the last one.

Another option for it could be so it only lets you move in one direction (forward/backward/left/right/anywhere)

This would help so much with tricky angles to stack and things like that.

I guess you could call it aim stack.

Still no idea ? Basically this.

forward/backward

A holster script. Every time you swap your weapon the v_model goes directly down and the next weapon plays its default draw animation.

Also a script that causes a dust effect when you fall high enough and if it's very high it causes an explosion but the explosion does not damage the player. Also, make it togglable.

A "stumble" script. every time you take 35 or more damage at once you stumble for 1 second, which prevents you from shooting and the camera tilts all over the place. Kind of like in TES 4 where when you take alot of damage you stumble and cannot defend yourself, or Fallout when you break your arm and the screen shakes. Also when you take 60 from being hit by a phys object, explosion, or antilion guard you fly backwards and land on your back. Take 3 seconds to get back up

The "Are You Sure" box isn't always there, just when you click on a button to switch maps.

Oh, right. Type (or bind a key to) "SelectMap" to bring up the menu.

Also, I forgot to mention that if you add a new map to your server mid-game it wont appear on the list until you either re-connect or the map is changed (ironically).
