What do you need help with? V3

[BL00DB4TH]

[QUOTE=Awakened;37684441]Basically, what I've been trying to do is make it so when a player enter's noclip, the script:
1. Saves the starting point where they went into noclip
2. Save their eyeangle point when they went into clip
3. Send them back to the location they first started out at when they exit noclip.

Problems: It won't send them back to the location they started off at and it doesnt set the eyeangles correctly. I can't seem to figure out why this is happening -_-

function AdminNoClip ( ply )        

    if (ply:GetMoveType() == MOVETYPE_NOCLIP) then
        print("noclip off")
        ply:SetPos( Vector(GetStartPos) )
        ply:SetEyeAngles( Angle(GetEyeAngles) )
        GetStartPos = nil
        GetEyeAngles = nil
    else    
        print("noclip on")        
        GetStartPos = ply:GetPos()
        GetEyeAngles = ply:EyeAngles()  
    end
end
hook.Add("PlayerNoClip", "AdminNoClip", AdminNoClip)

You're setting global variables serverside. What happens when 2 admins use noclip at the same time?

When you're trying to send them back to their start position, you're getting the vector of a vector. GetPos() returns a vector, and you're trying to get the vector of that vector. Same with the angle.

[lua]local function AdminNoClip( ply )
if ply:GetMoveType() == MOVETYPE_NOCLIP then
ply:SetPos( ply.LastNoclipPos )
ply:SetEyeAngles( ply.LastEyeAng )
else
ply.LastNoclipPos = ply:GetPos()
ply.LastEyeAng = ply:EyeAngles()
end
end
hook.Add( "PlayerNoClip", "AdminNoClip", AdminNoClip )[/lua]

Untested, but should work.

I was messing around with tables earlier when I saw this and came up with this:
[lua]
--This only works for Tables with numeric keys.
function table.IReverse(tbl)
for k,v in ipairs(tbl) do
tbl[v] = k
end
for i = 1, table.Count(tbl) do
tbl[i] = nil
end
end

local tables = {}
tables[1] = "John"
tables[2] = "Mary"
tables[3] = "Dave"

table.IReverse(tables)

for k,v in pairs(tables) do
print(k,v)
end
[/lua]

tbl[v] = k
end
for i = 1, table.Count(tbl) do
tbl[i] = nil
end
end
[/lua][/QUOTE]
uhhh why not just do it in one loop, instead of three (yes, you're currently using three loops. table.Count has a loop inside of it)
[lua]function table.IReverse( tbl )
for k,v in ipairs( tbl ) do
tbl[v] = k
tbl[k] = nil
end
end[/lua]

Wouldn't it be better to use pairs for yours Divran?

[QUOTE=Banana Lord.;37692138]Wouldn't it be better to use pairs for yours Divran?[/QUOTE]

He had commented "This only works for Tables with numeric keys." so I assumed that's what he wanted, and kept it that way
Personally, I would have used "for i=1,#tbl do" but I was just editing his.

I'm trying to include a file with some GAMEMODE. functions, but I'm always receiving a error like, [gamemodes/mygamemode/gamemode/stuff.lua:7] attempt to index global 'GAMEMODE' (a nil value)

how can I solve that?

[lorde banana]

the GAMEMODE variable exists after the gamemode has loaded

inside the gamemode you need to use GM

[Stillnex]

Hmm, so everything must use GM? because I started having a spam of errors:

Timer 'Stuff_Handling' Error: [gamemodes/Mygamemode/gamemode/stuff.lua:54] attempt to index global 'GM' (a nil value)

line 54 is

[lua]if #player.GetAll() < GM.Min_player then[/lua]

[lorde banana]

if that's inside a GM function then you should use self

[Stillnex]

[QUOTE=Banana Lord.;37693135]if that's inside a GM function then you should use self[/QUOTE]

it is, but now, the error changed from "attempt to index global 'GM'" to "attempt to index global 'self'"

[lorde banana]

can you most more code

i pasted the wrong code, sorry about that. Even though it's like that my main problem still exists. It doesn't teleport them back to their original position, it doesn't even set their angle back to the original position... :(

Thanks, however I keep getting an error when trying to use it. Code:

Error:

The first parameter of [i]halo.Add[/i] is a table which must contain the entities to give the halo.
So your code should be:
[lua]halo.Add({ self.Entity }, Color( 255, 255, 255, 255 ))[/lua]

The error is gone now, however the whole game stops responding.

[lorde banana]

what hook are you calling it in

[FPtje]

end[/lua][/QUOTE]

breaks when k == v.

[Undefined]

[QUOTE=FPtje;37701609]breaks when k == v.[/QUOTE]
It will also break when 2 members have the same value (one of them will disappear).

[Divran]

[QUOTE=FPtje;37701609]breaks when k == v.[/QUOTE]

And his original won't?
EDIT: No his should have the exact same problem.
All you have to do to fix it is to erase tbl[k] = nil

[FPtje]

[QUOTE=Divran;37701711]And his original won't?

that leads to redundant data if k != v.

What the fuck is the point of this reversing bullshit again?

[Divran]

[QUOTE=ralle105;37702870]What the fuck is the point of this reversing bullshit again?[/QUOTE]

lookup tables?

so your shit becomes O(1) instead of O(n)

[ralle105]

Then surely making a new table is a better idea?
[lua]
function table.reverse(t)
local newt = {}
for k,v in pairs(t) do
newt[v] = k
end
return newt
end
[/lua]

Sure, I guess. I was just optimizing his code, not debating which is the best way to do it

Also, I need help with a modified weedplant for DarkRP, whenever I destroy the max amount of weed pots you can have spawned at once, you can no longer spawn any more weed pots. It simply says that you have reached the limit for weed pots.
