I get an error whenever I call the DTBool on an entity in the world through a autorun script.

attempt to call method 'GetDTBool' (a nil value)

local entity = ents.FindByClass("entity")
local bool1 = entity:GetDTBool(0)
local bool2 = entity:GetDTBool(2)

if bool1 and not bool2 then
 --code
end

[/QUOTE]

FindByClass returns a table of entities, not just one.

You know how when you look around in game your player model turns with it (not just his head, the whole body), how can I do that in lua? Ent:SetAngle() doesn't seem to be doing anything. I'm trying to do this to a clientside model btw.

Any way to force my hud under the default darkrp scoreboard? Already using SetZPos and ParentToHUD on the root hud elements.

oh ok, how do I get the variable of each of them?

You loop through them.

I'm trying to make my accessories file less large using loops to do most of the work for me.

For some reason this doesn't work and I'm not quite sure why. (unexpected symbol near 'for')

Example:

Accessories = {
    for i=0, 4 do
        ["beanie2_gta_skin" ..tostring(i)] = { type = "Model", model = "models/modified/hat04.mdl", bone = "ValveBiped.Bip01_Head1", rel = "", pos = Vector(5.714, -2, 0), angle = Angle(0, -74, -90), size = Vector(1, 1, 1), color = Color(255, 255, 255, 255), surpresslightning = false, material = "", skin = i, bodygroup = {} },
    end
}

You can't include a for loop to a table.

Do it outside the table.

for i=0, 4 do
    Accessories["beanie2_gta_skin" ..i] = { type = "Model", model = "models/modified/hat04.mdl", bone = "ValveBiped.Bip01_Head1", rel = "", pos = Vector(5.714, -2, 0), angle = Angle(0, -74, -90), size = Vector(1, 1, 1), color = Color(255, 255, 255, 255), surpresslightning = false, material = "", skin = i, bodygroup = {} },
end

Note: most of the time you can just concatenate numbers without tostring

Thanks man :3

Accessories = { Data = { } }

function Accessories:Define( name, data )
  --Validate the input - set defaults that are missing, etc

  --Then,
  self.Data[ name ] = data
end

function Accessories:Exists( name )
  return self.Data[ name ] ~= nil
end

function Accessories:GetField( name, field )
  if not self:Exists( name ) then
    return
  else
    return self.Data[ name ][ field ]
  end
end

for i = 0, 4 do
  Accessories:Define( "beanie2_gta_skin" .. i, { type = ... } )
end

Something like that would probably work. Abstract away directly touching the data, make helper functions to improve quality of life, etc. Also, :ninja:'d for longer reply.

apparently, I was running DX 7, just used -dxlevel 98 in start up commands.

[keeperman]

Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong?

    local entity = ents.FindByClass("entity")
    for k, v in pairs( entity ) do
        local bool2 = entity:GetDTBool(2)
        local bool1 = entity:GetDTBool(0)
    end

In this code entity is your table and v is your value from the table, so replace entity with v within the loop.

[MaxShadow]

I have a problem. Every time I do npc:AddEntityRelationship( player, D_HT, 0 ), the enemy will completely ignore other NPC's, an he will only try to kill the player. Even if I enable ai_ignoreplayers and then I disable it, the enemy will target the player again. Changing the priority doesn't seems to do anything. Any ideas?

[QUOTE=bigdogmat;49650104]In this code entity is your table and v is your value from the table, so replace entity with v within the loop.[/QUOTE]

oh yea thanks

The entity doesn't pass on the boolean so it just says false even though it should be true

[Jonzky]

Slight bump on this - Ethics aside (assuming there's a disclaimer and such), how effective is render.Capture at detecting hacks? Are there any effective/known ways of avoiding it or are their choices to return nothing or garbage?

[kpjVideo]

Is there anyway to allow a player to see around their entire body left and right but not up and down?

Similar to how prisoner pods work in a CalcView.

-sorry for so many posts in this thread recently, hopefully last thing I'll need to ask for :3-

Having an issues was making items on pointshop2 then i got this error!

" [ERROR] lua/vgui/dimage.lua:153: attempt to index local 'Mat' (a nil value)

FixVertexLitMaterial - lua/vgui/dimage.lua:153

The point shop won't close now and it lags the game its also unuseable any help would be great!

Is there a hook or way to run code once the player is 100% done connecting, after they loaded all of the player entities.

[G😹nz😻]

Run a function, if the LocalPlayer() it's not valid, then run a timer inside linked into the function parsing the player as argument

[MaxShadow]

[QUOTE=YourStalker;49653218]Is there a hook or way to run code once the player is 100% done connecting, after they loaded all of the player entities.[/QUOTE]

hook.Add( "InitPostEntity", "something", function()
	ply = LocalPlayer()
        -- Do stuff
end )

[YourStalker]

[QUOTE=MaxShadow;49653478][/QUOTE]

Players aren't 100% loaded in that

[kpjVideo]

[QUOTE=YourStalker;49653679]Players aren't 100% loaded in that[/QUOTE]

I believe Acecool made something that added a hook called PlayerFullyConnected. Sadly I think the links died, but his explanation may be of use: [url]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1416484[/url]

Trying to make this SWEP be useable two times for the whole team.

How I'm doing this is I'm counting the number of traitors and adding 2.

However, when I try to print the values in console, they return nil. Any ideas?

Here's where I print my values...

function SWEP:PrimaryAttack()
	print (numberOfTraitors)
	print (numberTefibLimit)
  if CLIENT then return end

  local tr = util.TraceLine({
    start = self.Owner:EyePos(),
    endpos = self.Owner:EyePos() + self.Owner:GetAimVector() * 80,
    filter = self.Owner
  })

  if IsValid(tr.Entity) and tr.Entity:GetClass() == "prop_ragdoll" then
    if not tr.Entity.uqid then
      self:FireError("FAILURE - SUBJECT BRAINDEAD")
      return
    end

    local ply = player.GetByUniqueID(tr.Entity.uqid)

    if IsValid(ply) then
      self:BeginDefib(ply, tr.Entity)
    else
      self:FireError("FAILURE - SUBJECT BRAINDEAD")
      return
    end
  else
    self:FireError("FAILURE - INVALID TARGET")
  end
end

Here's my code for the numbers check.

if (SERVER) then
        hook.Add( "TTTBeginRound", "NumberOfTypes", function()
                local numberOfTraitors = 0
				local numberOfPlayers = 0
                for k, v in pairs( player.GetAll() ) do
                        if v:IsTraitor() and v:Alive() then
                                numberOfTraitors=numberOfTraitors+1
                        end
						if v:Alive() and !v:IsSpec() then
								numberOfPlayers=numberOfPlayers+1
						end
                end
                timer.Simple( .5, function() 
                        PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "Traitors: "..numberOfTraitors )
						PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "Number of Players: "..numberOfPlayers )
                end )
				local numberTefibLimit = numberOfTraitors + 2
				PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "Number of Traitors Allowed: "..numberTefibLimit )
        end )
end

Here's my altered error message in Think...

function SWEP:Think()
  if CLIENT then return end

  if self:GetDefibState() == STATE_PROGRESS then
    if not IsValid(self.Owner) then
      self:FireError()
      return
    end

    if not (IsValid(self.TargetPly) and IsValid(self.TargetRagdoll)) then
      self:FireError("ERROR - SUBJECT BRAINDEAD")
      return
    end

    local tr = util.TraceLine({
      start = self.Owner:EyePos(),
      endpos = self.Owner:EyePos() + self.Owner:GetAimVector() * 80,
      filter = self.Owner
    })

    if tr.Entity ~= self.TargetRagdoll then
      self:FireError("ERROR - TARGET LOST")
      return
    end
	
	if numberOfTraitors == numberTefibLimit then
      self:FireError("ERROR - TOO MANY TRAITORS")
      return
    end

    if CurTime() >= self:GetDefibStartTime() + 5 then
      if self:HandleRespawn() then
        self:FireSuccess()
      else
        self:FireError("ERROR - INSUFFICIENT ROOM")
        return
      end
    end


    self:NextThink(CurTime())
    return true
  end
end

And here's where I produce the amount of traitors and adding and stuff...

function SWEP:HandleRespawn()
  local ply, ragdoll = self.TargetPly, self.TargetRagdoll
  local spawnPos = self:FindPosition(self.Owner)

  if not spawnPos then
    return false
  end
  
  local credits = CORPSE.GetCredits(ragdoll, 0)
  local health = 50
  
  if ragdoll:GetRole() == "ROLE_INNOCENT" or ragdoll:GetRole() == "ROLE_DETECTIVE" then
	numberOfTraitors = numberOfTraitors + 1
  end
  

  ply:SpawnForRound(true)
  ply:SetCredits(credits)
  ply:SetRole(ROLE_TRAITOR)
  ply:SetHealth(health)
  SendFullStateUpdate()
  ply:SetPos(spawnPos)
  ply:SetEyeAngles(Angle(0, ragdoll:GetAngles().y, 0))

  ragdoll:Remove()

  return true
end

If you need any addition code to help, I'll be more than happy to provide it.

[Giraffen93]

the client doesn't load/init the other players until you get in their pvs
onentitycreated is a really useful hook

[Nipah]

I'm not getting any output in my server console.
Wiki link [URL="http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/GM/ShowSpare1"]ShowSpare1[/URL][LUA]if SERVER then
hook.Add( "ShowSpare1", "fbkjftgi", function( ply )
print( "A player hit F3 ("..ply:SteamID()..")" )
end)
end[/LUA]

[keeperman]

The booleans always give me false even though it should be true

	local entity = ents.FindByClass("entity")
	for k, v in pairs( entity ) do
		local bool1 = v:GetDTBool(2)
		local bool2 = v:GetDTBool(0)
	end

[Coment]

ez stuff from a noob with weapons:
How do I play an ACT_ when doing primary attack, for everyone (not just client) to see? Do I really have to go for k,v in pairs(player.GetAll()) to execute clientside code on each of them for something like that?

I think I've tried every single function with 'anim' on its name from the wiki, and none of them do anything when called serverside.

It's not one of the standard ones, but ACT_FLINCH_HEAD. (A shame, because it would've been a nice solution)
