Is there a way to get the tire entities of a vehicle?

Is SpawnIcon re-render broken?

What kind of vehicle? What are you trying to do with the tires?

prop_vehicle (like HL2 jeep) aren't made up of multiple entities, it's a single entity instance.

Hi guys :)

I want to create a thing that can deviate an attack/bullet but I don't really know how to handle it, for now I've done that:

 local function deviatingBullet(target, dmginfo,dir,trace)
	 
	if target:GetActiveWeapon():GetClass() == "usl_lightsaber" then		
		local newTrace = trace
		newTrace.HitNormal = target:GetEyeTrace()
		newTrace.StartPos = target:GetActiveWeapon():GetPos()		
		target:DispatchTraceAttack(dmginfo,newTrace) 
		dmginfo:SetDamage( 0 )
	end 
end
hook.Add("PlayerTraceAttack","usl_deviate_lightsaber",deviatingBullet) 

But it creates a stack overflow error ...
Do you have any idea ?

I'm trying to use the hook PhysgunPickup however it doesn't work, the hook never gets called. I assume this is because some other PhysgunPickup hook returns a value.
I need to use the hook but would rather not make other addons not function, any way to do this?

If you have ulib, you can prioritize your hook to get called before the other one. Or you could figure out why it returns something.

Hey, guys. How can I change angle of flashlight light on player's hand when he is turning on his flashlight. I want to change it, because I don't want light angled on the floor.

What can I use to help NPCs detect where to spawn? I made my own SENT that spawns NPCs within a radius, but the spawner says it's full when I can only find like 25% of the mobs, leading me to believe they spawned inside a wall or underground.

Is there anyway I can get a list of fully connected clients from the client? I'm trying to make a player list that updates automatically but [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/player/GetAll]player.GetAll[/url] returns unconnected players.

if v:Team() ~= 0 then
table.insert(players, v)
end
end

[/lua]
I'm 99% sure that unconnected players are on Team 0, so the above should work.

I just tried this out but it only seems to work about ~80% of the time.

Yes, network the result of IsConnected.

Anything thats universal?

[wauterboi]

Since ENT:OnGround() isn't working for my SENT, and doing a TraceHull downwards is resulting in no hits when my SENT is on the ground, are displacements just broken for tracing? What would be an alternate soluition? I've tried a variety of tracing methods and distances to no avail.

TraceHull should work. I was using it for custom player movement to detect collision, even against displacements. Are you sure your tracemask and tracefilter are correct?

Is there anyway to achieve the metropolice pistol hold type for player?
Like you have both hand on the gun (not like revolver)

lua_run local e=Entity(1):GetEyeTrace().Entity local p=e:GetPos() print(util.TraceHull({start=p,endpos=p-vector_up,filter=e,mins=e:OBBMins(),maxs=e:OBBMaxs()}).Hit)

Doing this for a prop sitting on a displacement works fine. Alternatively, you can use TraceEntity and it will set the bounds automatically. I have found after going through some Source Engine code that FL_ONGROUND isn't set automatically for anything but players. I'll document this on the wiki.

That's part of the NPC anim set and thus is not available to player models. You might be able to convert the set to use player bones then use an m_anm recompile to add it.

This work but the pistol anim doesn't have 8 way movement so your leg keep going forward when you go diagonal

[QUOTE=YoutoYokodera;52442194][url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=831242294&searchtext=old+animation[/url][/QUOTE]

Yes, that's an m_anm recompile.
