There's the answer to your question.

[Zikry]

urr can I get points by killing NPCs?

[blackrock]

[QUOTE=Zikry;21833606]urr can I get points by killing NPCs?[/QUOTE]

It's not meant to be for single player. (You will be told that.)
But, being a noob in lua and all that stuph, How CAN you do that?

[Zikry]

Owh yea.. but. urr Im not realy a "Multiplayer Guy" so how do I change it to Kill NPCs instead of other players

[Uzalon]

Does the points save with the server???

[lua]
hook.Add( "OnNPCKilled", "Points", function( ply, victim )
if ValidEntity( victim ) and victim:IsPlayer() then
victim:GivePoints( 15 )
end
end )
[/lua]

How can I make it add points to the player every 5 minutes?

[lua]
local PointsToGive = 10

timer.Create( "GivePoints", 300, 0, function()
for k, v in ipairs( player.GetAll() ) do
v:GivePoints( PointsToGive )
end
end )
[/lua]

[QUOTE=antid2;21734780]What?, L4D2 doesn't have a "Item Buy system".[/QUOTE]Actually, someone did port my shitty plugin to L4D2, but it is really buggy.

[ROFLBURGER]

Holy shit, this is awesome.
Why don't you make it so you sell it for 2/3 of the price? losing 2/3 seems like alot

[Seanm07]

Another question, is it possible to make it have some entities in there which when purchased are put into the inventory and players have to open the inventory to spawn the entity?

I tried:
[lua]
PointMod.Items[1] = { "SF-AACannon", "SF-AACannon", "models/Slyfo/flakvierling_blasternorm.mdl", "SF-AACannon", 60, "PlayerLoadout", function( ply )
local ent = ents.Create( "SF-AACannon" )
ent:SetPos( SpawnPos )
ent:Spawn()
ent:Activate()
ent.SPL = ply

return ent
end }
[/lua]
But this didn't work.

[CombineGuru]

Defined SpawnPos?

[Seanm07]

[QUOTE=CombineGuru;21937199]Defined SpawnPos?[/QUOTE]
Huh?

How do I do that?

[BillyMays]

Where would I add

local PointsToGive = 10
timer.Create( "GivePoints", 300, 0, function()  
  for k, v in ipairs( player.GetAll() ) do     
   v:GivePoints( PointsToGive )
    end
end )  

?

lua/autorun/server

[Seanm07]

Or you can add it to the hooks.lua file like I did.

Stupid thing to do. When you update your server, your changes will be lost.

[Seanm07]

[QUOTE=|FlapJack|;21990286]Stupid thing to do. When you update your server, your changes will be lost.[/QUOTE]

No? Everything is still here and has been all the time, no point losses or anything.

[BillyMays]

I'm having another problem, I need to know how to put the menu on the F6 key.

[hakusaro]

Or you guys could use it like it's intended, as a base for a gamemode, in which case he doesn't need to worry about what ever the fuck he's doing.

[King Kambroo]

What sort of code (and where would you need to put it) do you need to set a person's points to 100 on the first time they join the server?

I'd imagine it's along the lines of checking if the points == nil then using ply:ps_setpoints(100?)

Sorry, I'm very new to lua.

sv/hooks.lua, line 6.

Change:

[lua]
ply.Points = ply:GetPData( "Points" ) or 0
[/lua]

to

[lua]ply.Points = ply:GetPData( "Points" ) or 100[/lua]

[rrkpp_]

The HUD and Derma for it is kinda ugly, consider revising it?

[King Kambroo]

Thanks for the help Guru.

[Staneh]

Awesome!

[Uzalon]

Will this also allow me to pickup items to put in the inventory?

It would be helpful to find the coding for this in the script... Considering that the gamemode I am using, already has F2 in use. I'm assuming this would be under [I]lua/PointMod/cl/menu[/I], but I couldn't find anything. If anyone finds it, that'd be great!

It's not going to be clientside, since the hook is serverside and will be in sv/hooks.lua. You can't change it to F6 unfortunately.
