What do you need help with? V3

[QUOTE=Zyler;39548037]Is it at all possible in lua to auto-generate new variables? What I have in mind is that the code auto-generates a new variable every time you run a function and a variable is already present, e.g. if var1 exists create var2, if var2 exists create var3 and so on. This way it will procedurally create new variables without you having to manually create them.[/QUOTE]

[lua]
local vars = {}
vars[0] = 0

function addVar()
vars[#vars] = 0 //# prefix gives us the number of values in a table
end
[/lua]

Might give you an error, not sure, can't try it out right now...

Does http.Fetch only retrieve once? Then from a cache or something?

It seems to not be updating when i run the function, unless the file is reloaded.

Is it possible to change the colour of anything printed to the console?

Yes, with the MsgC() function [url]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Global/MsgC[/url]

[editline]11th February 2013[/editline]

It works for both client console and server console. And you need to add new line at the end.

Is it in a serverside script and are you sure the script is being ran?

Try adding print("this hook is running") above that line and restart the server; if it prints to the server console then we can explore other possible problems.[/QUOTE]

[lua]
hook.Add( "PlayerShouldAct", "no actin' fool", function( objPl, strAct, iAct ) print("Hook fired"); return false; end );
print("Hook created")
[/lua]

Running on serverside creates the console output of:
[quote]
Hook created
[/quote]
but it never outputs
[quote]
Hook fired
[/quote]

I've been testing with
[quote]
act muscle
[/quote]
and
[quote]
act group
[/quote]
on the console.

Where should I look for creating a third person script?

can anyone answer this

[QUOTE=>>;39558051]can anyone answer this[/QUOTE]
I don't think http.Fetch will cache. It shouldn't.
.. but again I got no idea (It doesn't say it anywhere).

[Science]

It doesn't say it does.

But it does for sure, and I can't have it do that.

Is anyone aware of how to, or even if it's possible, to deploy the css Colt M4A1 or the HK USP without a suppressor being drawn on the world model? I have all of the back end code written regarding first person view for suppressed drawing, and unsuppressed drawing, as well as suppressed and unsuppressed firing, but I have no clue how you can remove the suppressor from the world model.. Is it a skin, an alternative model, a flag, or is it just not possible at all??

How do you stop a sound from playing that's being emitted from your weapon?

Preferably on death or on holster.
[lua]self.Weapon:StopSound(Sound ("SOUNDPATH.wav" ) )[/lua]
doesn't work

[soupface]

I have the Q menu disabled on my zombie server, is it possible to make only Super admins able to open the menu?

[ExtReMLapin]

Try to find the lines of code that disable the Menu and add a

(ServerSide)
[lua]
if !ply:IsAdmin()
[/lua]

btw , you should use SandBox as base gamemode

[soupface]

Hmm, can't seem to find it in any of my cl_init.lua's.
Any ideas?

Trying to make a swep go into a passive animation when you do use+primary fire, this is the code I got

function SWEP:PrimaryAttack()
	if(self.Owner:KeyDown(IN_USE)) then
		if(self.SetWeaponHoldType("revolver"))then(self.SetWeaponHoldType("passive"))else(self.SetWeaponHoldType("revolver"))
	end

And it does this error.

[ERROR] ...myaddon/lua/weapons/wep_mywep/shared.lua:154: syntax error near 'else'
  1. unknown - addons/myaddon/lua/weapons/wep_mywep/shared.lua:0

Any help? As far as I can see my use of else is just fine, but that can't be true.

You're trying to get the holdtype by doing SetWeaponHoldType... use Weapon:GetHoldType() and btw KeyDown() is gonna be returning true for the duration it is pressed/down, maybe you should try KeyPressed() instead

Set the sequence to the ones that aren't silenced?
There's different sequences like idle_silenced and etc.. it's probably playing the silenced ones instead of the non-silenced.

Oh, didn't know there was a seperate function for getting the hold type, thanks for that.
Still getting the same error though.
