[QUOTE=Z0mb1n3;48999406]Is there a reason this does not work? Inside the init of an html panel, I have

	self:AddFunction("prop", "realwidth", function(str)
		self:SetRealWidth(tonumber(str))
                print(self:GetRealWidth())
	end)

and when I run the javascript function, it works fine, but if I try to print that value any other time, it doesn't exist, example:
I run the javascript, and the callback prints the value. I use the accessor function I created and try printing the value of RealWidth and it returns nil.

Is it asynchronous and I'm being dumb?

[editline]28th October 2015[/editline]

Yes I guess it is asynchronous, sorry.[/QUOTE]

Looking at your last few posts, you can get the width and height from JavaScript using window.outerHeight and window.outerWidth. [URL="http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/prop_win_outerheight.asp"]W3Schools (ew, I know)[/URL]

[QUOTE=Becomeimp;48996443]What can cause a file like "lua/autorun/something_example.lua" to run fine in single player but not run in a multiplayer/online server? I used "AddCSLuaFile()" in a combination of ways but non seem to be fixing it. Is there anything else I can check?[/QUOTE]

Any file placed in lua/autorun/ and NOT lua/autorun/server will execute on the client. You do not need to add AddCSLuaFile for files in the directory. Are you sure there are no errors, the file is not empty and the file actually exists?

[/QUOTE]

Well I've got the width and height correct, but the problem is I made a custom SizeToContents function for these panels, and the unfortunate thing is that it runs javascript to retrieve the width of the icons. Unfortunate because it takes about 0.12 seconds for the javascript to run and resize the panel, at which point garry's mod still thinks the panel's boundaries are 64 x 24, because GetSize returns a value before the sizing is run by the javascript.

There used to be an old module that would change the information that player entities (and other entities) would transmit. I believe it was a part of the Sassilization stuff.

Does anyone have the source to that module (from the Sassilization release maybe?) or know how you could even mess with that in a module?

I want to insert a newline into a string every x characters, what method should I use for this? Like, I can explain what I want but looking at the wiki, can't figure out what to use for this

Thanks!

You can use string.Explode, loop through the table, and when the key % x is 0, table.insert a newline at that position, and table.concat when you're finished.

You can also just use the string library, using a loop, the # operator and string.sub.

[Teddi]

Maybe I'm just pulling a dumb here or my memory is failing me, but I thought when ENT.Base was set to another entity the child entity would then inherit that entities functions and so on via the ENT table.

Or am I totally wrong?

Anyone know why Atmos wont work with maps on a dedicated server? I'm trying to get it working with rockford, it works fine in singleplayer but I get the default skybox with clouds and the dnc cycle wont work when on a dedicated server. No errors relating to this in the console.

Thanks.

So I'm trying my hand at making some more VGUI, and in the style of material design, as I wanted to make my own base for it, but when testing a way for the button tap animation to draw, if the circle extends beyond the bottom-right corner of the button, a segment's alpha will reset.

[video=youtube_share;rlzLGyWqFYA]http://youtu.be/rlzLGyWqFYA[/video]

Here is the code for it, in case you want to test it and/or tell me there is a better way to do this.

function draw.Circle( x, y, radius, seg )
    local cir = {}

    table.insert( cir, { x = x, y = y, u = 0.5, v = 0.5 } )
    for i = 0, seg do
        local a = math.rad( ( i / seg ) * -360 )
        table.insert( cir, { x = x + math.sin( a ) * radius, y = y + math.cos( a ) * radius, u = math.sin( a ) / 2 + 0.5, v = math.cos( a ) / 2 + 0.5 } )
    end

    local a = math.rad( 0 ) -- This is need for non absolute segment counts
    table.insert( cir, { x = x + math.sin( a ) * radius, y = y + math.cos( a ) * radius, u = math.sin( a ) / 2 + 0.5, v = math.cos( a ) / 2 + 0.5 } )

    surface.DrawPoly( cir )
end


if button then button:Remove() button = nil end
surface.CreateFont("robomed", {font = "Roboto-Medium", antialias = true, size = ScreenScale(9), weight = 500})
button = vgui.Create("DButton")
button:SetFont("robomed")
button:SetText("Shitty button")
button:SetSize(400, 500)
button:Center()

button.color = color_white

--button.bubblecolor = Color(button.color.r-50, button.color.g-50, button.color.b-50, button.color.a-50)
button.bubblecolor = color_black
button.Paint = function(but, w, h)
    surface.SetDrawColor(but.highlighted and but.highlightcolor or but.color)
    surface.DrawRect(0, 0, w, h)
    
    if button.bubble then
        surface.SetDrawColor(button.bubblecolor.r, button.bubblecolor.g, button.bubblecolor.b, button.bubblealpha)

        draw.Circle(button.bubblex, button.bubbley, button.bubbleradius, 150)
        --surface.DrawCircle(but.bubblex, but.bubbley, but.bubbleradius, ColorAlpha(but.bubblecolor, but.bubblealpha))
    end
end

button.Think = function(bu)
    if button.bubble then
        button.bubbleradius = (button.bubbleradius or 1)+5
        button.bubblealpha = math.Clamp((button.bubblealpha or button.bubblecolor.a)-10, 0, 255)
        if button.bubblealpha <= 0 then
            button.bubble = false
        end
    end
end

function button:OnCursorEntered()
    local h,s,v = ColorToHSV(self.bubblecolor)
    local highlight = HSVToColor(h, s*0.5, v*0.5)
    self.highlighted = true
    self.highlightcol = highlight
end

button.DoClick = function(bu)
    bu.bubble = true
    local x,y = bu:GetPos()
    bu.bubblex = gui.MouseX() - x
    bu.bubbley = gui.MouseY() - y
    button.bubbleradius = 0
    button.bubblealpha = 255
end

Can you include fonts (.ttf) in a workshop addon? I recall at some point it wasn't possible - or didn't work.

No. It doesn't work, but I heard it will be fixed at sometime.

Tried, doesn't seem to do anything.

[QUOTE=kpjVideo;49004793]Is there anyway to freeze the playermodel moving animation in DModelPanel?[/QUOTE]

Parent the clientside model to the model in the DModelPanel somehow. I dunno how PAC does it when you render a PAC inside a DModelPanel, so try looking there.

Sorry, but could I please get an answer for this? (I [URL="https://forums.coronalabs.com/topic/38127-how-to-call-a-function-from-another-lua-file/"]found a solution[/URL] to my previous question):

Maybe I'm just being stupid, but what is max? Is it just some arbitrary number?

[MysteryPancake]

In my case it's 20 (but I want it to be any number)

I just want a number to go from 0-20 then back to 0 and to 20 again forever, but since it's in a panel:Paint() hook, I don't want it going too fast depending on the user's computer speed.

Does entity/SetSequence not work on players..? Im not getting an error when i try to do it but it doesnt force the animation..Im using npc model on nutscript so it should be working..

Well the original code that Kogitsune gave you doesn't work for me either, so I'm not sure.

[editline]30th October 2015[/editline]

Okay, I got it to work:

value = math.min( max, value + ( max / seconds ) / ( 1 / RealFrameTime() ) )

if value == max then
  value = 0
end

I'm fairly certain the ugly fractions in a fraction can be simplified, but I'm not good at math so I'm not sure how to do that.

[skullorz]

value = math.min( max, value + ( max * RealFrameTime() / seconds ) )

Anyone have any idea why input.IsMouseDown or any variation doesn't work with the scroll wheel?

      number = number - 1

How do I have some playermodel bones hidden without affecting bonemerged models ? Using ENT:ManipulateBoneScale and zero vector affects bonemerged models also.

Hey guys,

How would one go about hiding or making invisible the world and view models for a step? I'm making a small knife for prop hunt props to use on glass windows that doesn't damage players and the hands holding the knife don't look good at all so I just wanna get rid of the model and have it be an invisible glass breaker.

Thanks for the help,

Hey, I have a problem with my FastDL.
The FastDL is working just fine, but with just this one file, it is giving this error upon joining:
HTTP ERROR 8 downloading [url]http://fastdl.einfach-gmod.de/sound/vehicles/tdmcars/scania/third.wav.bz2[/url]
Normally this error appeared, when the file is not existend, but this time, the file exists and can be downloaded through my browser.
Any idea? :/
