The text is yellow, meaning that it's clientside error.
You can't include them because you simply didn't send them, do AddCSLua in init.lua

It always draws in the right position relative to the machine, but it only draws at the right angle when the machine is at an angle of (0,0,0). This is bad.

[LUA]function ENT:Draw()

self.Entity:DrawModel()

local Text="$".." "..tostring(self:GetDTFloat(0)) --THIS IS EXPENSIVE
local TheAngle=-self:GetRight():Angle()
TheAngle:RotateAroundAxis(TheAngle:Forward(),90)
cam.Start3D2D(self:GetPos()+self:GetForward()*17.5-self:GetRight()*19.5+self:GetUp()*10,TheAngle,0.035)
draw.RoundedBox(6,0,0,140,45,Color(255,255,255,255))
draw.DrawText(Text,"HUDNumber5",12,0,Color(0,20,40),255)
cam.End3D2D()
end[/LUA]

Would someone please just tell me what I'm doing wrong? Because I thought I was drawing always relative to the machine by using GetRight():Angle(), but [b]I just don't know what went wrong[/b]

hi
I'm trying to use AbyssRP in Garry's Mod 13 beta for my server. It had a few LUA errors in it about Fonts not being found. Those were easy to fix, just changed the font to something it did find. But I can't fix these

[QUOTE][lua\includes\modules\draw.lua:71] surface.SetFont - no such font "TabLarge"
[lua\includes\modules\draw.lua:145] surface.SetFont - no such font "TabLarge"[/QUOTE]

And they keep getting spammed, It causes minor lag, and isn't fun to play with. I can find the 2 lines, but nothing to find called TabLarge, I've searched through every LUA script in that folder. Anyone know a fix for it?

Just use self:GetAngles()

[Jackarunda]

[QUOTE=ralle105;36807010]Just use self:GetAngles()[/QUOTE]

But then it's not oriented properly.

And even WHILE it's not oriented properly, it continues to rotate all out of whack as the machine turns.

It's not a question of orientation. GetRight():Angle() is the same as GetAngles():Right():Angle(). It's a matter of getting the piece of shit to stay aligned with the damn machine at all angles.

[b]Edited:[/b]

Ok, nevermind, I got it by doing this:
[LUA]local TheAngle=self:GetAngles()
TheAngle:RotateAroundAxis(TheAngle:Forward(),90)
TheAngle:RotateAroundAxis(TheAngle:Right(),-90)[/LUA]
Apparently you can't use Right(), Up(), Forward(), GetRight(), GetUp() or GetForward() or else everything fucks up. Thanks anyways.

[lua]
local ENT = Entity(83) // vending machine

function DrawText()

local angle = ENT:GetAngles()
angle:RotateAroundAxis(ENT:GetAngles():Right(),90)
cam.Start3D2D(ENT:GetPos() + ENT:GetForward()*17.5 + ENT:GetRight()*-26,angle,1)
draw.RoundedBox(0,1,1,5,8,Color(255,255,255,255))
cam.End3D2D()
end

hook.Add("PostDrawTranslucentRenderables","DrawText",DrawText)

[/lua]

That worked perfectly for my vending machine.

[QUOTE=I Fail At Lua;36802719]I can't seem to get my timer and disconnect hook to work. The timer for some reason makes "Money" nil and the save on disconnect doesn't work either and I can't figure out why. They're both not producing any errors either.

file.Write( "Money/" .. self:FormatSteamID() .. ".txt", tostring( self:GetMoney() ) )

Hey everyone,
is there a way to make players not swim in water? So that they just walk always on the ground and can not swim? I tried the DropToFloor method, but than you always stuck at the border of the water. Would be cool, if somebody knows a way how to do it.

[MrManiak]

I want to detect if the entity is touching the world or not. Here's my code :

function ENT:IsTouchingSomething()
    MsgN("called ENT:IsTouchingSomething")
    if !Touching then return false; end
    MsgN("ENT:IsTouchingSomething returned true !")
    return true;
end

function ENT:StartTouch( ent )
    if ent:IsWorld() then
        Touching = true;
        MsgN("Entity is touching world")
    end
    MsgN("Entity is touching something")
end

function ENT:EndTouch( ent )
    if ent:IsWorld() then
        Touching = false;
        MsgN("Entity is no longer touching world")
    end
    
    MsgN("Entity is no longer touching something")
end

ENT:StartTouch and ENT:EndTouch aren't called when touching the world. Is there another way to detect world/entity colisions ? Please help.

Try the ENT:PhysicsCollide hook.

Thanks. But how would I detect if it stops touching ... ?

I'm trying to make an edit on the WAC Base for my custom helicopters, and I want to know if there is a way to make it so that for example helicopter_interior.mdl is visible to players inside the helicopter and helicopter_exterior.mdl is visible to players outside the helicopter, and if it's possible how can I do it?

How can I make it so every time a player gets a kill it runs a command (such as ply:GiveMoney )

[triscuit6264]

[QUOTE=Earl.;36821348]How can I make it so every time a player gets a kill it runs a command (such as ply:GiveMoney )[/QUOTE]

hook.Add( "PlayerDeath", "Money_On_Death", function( ply,  Inflictor,  Killer)
	 ply:GiveMoney()
end)

Thanks, but this is giving money when the player dies, I need it to give money when the player kills someone else

[zzaacckk]

Give the money to the 'Killer' instead of the Victim.

[lua]
hook.Add( "PlayerDeath", "Money_On_Death", function( ply, Inflictor, Killer)
Killer:GiveMoney(-100)
end)
[/lua]

[ralle105]

Also make sure ply and killer aren't the same person (no money for suicide)

[Kogitsune]

And that killer is a player.

You're using the path to the NPC model, use the path to the player model.
"models/player/Group03/male_02.mdl"

Thanks a lot!

[PaellaPablo]

Rather simple, but I don't know what hook this would go on.

Essentially, for the deathrun gamemode I am working on, players will have the ability to use !redie, meaning if they die and have the upgrade, they can respawn as a 'Ghost' and run around and such.

I want to know how to disable the ghosts from activating triggers/pressure plates and stuff like that.
My current use is via a network boolean of "DEAD", and this disables them from picking up weapons/ hurting players/ pressing buttons.

tl;dr

How do I stop a player from being able to activate things like trigger_once, breaking func_breakables, and all that type of thing.

Is there a way to do a trace that will tell me if it hits NPC Clip? ("tools/toolsnpclip" in hammer)

Edit: Solved it myself:

mask = MASK_NPCSOLID_BRUSHONLY

[Thoof]

I'm trying to make a round timer in cl_init, counting down from 300 seconds:

function DrawTimer()
local roundLength = 300
local time = round(NextPrintTime,0)
local roundtimeleft = roundLength - time
local roundsInSession = 0

if (CurTime() >= NextPrintTime) then
function self:HUDPaint()
if roundtimeleft > 0 then
draw.RoundedBox(6, ScrW()/2 - 120, 0, 243,50, Color(50,50,50,200))
draw.DrawText("Time Left in Round: "..roundtimeleft.." seconds", "ScoreboardText", ScrW() / 2, 15, Color(255, 255, 255, 255),TEXT_ALIGN_CENTER)
else
roundsInSession = roundsInSession + 1
roundtimeleft= roundtimeleft +(300*roundsInSession)
draw.RoundedBox(6, ScrW()/2 - 120, 0, 243,50, Color(50,50,50,200))
draw.DrawText("Time Left in Round: "..roundtimeleft.." seconds", "ScoreboardText", ScrW() / 2, 15, Color(255, 255, 255, 255),TEXT_ALIGN_CENTER)
end
end
NextPrintTime = CurTime() - 2
end
end
hook.Add("Think", "DrawTimer", DrawTimer)
end

However this only runs for two iterations before going onward to negative infinity... how could I get it to loop endlessly?

[Awakened]

Nvm, I figured it out.
