Problems Changing Slots

Garry's Mod coding
#1

Hello, I am having trouble with something regarding the gamemode I am working on.



function weapon_set(ply,cmd,args)

	if (args[2] == nil) then
		if (ply:HasWeapon(args[1])) then
			ply:Give(args[1])
			umsg.Start("Change_Slot",ply)
				umsg.String(args[1])
				umsg.Char(tonumber(args[3]))
			umsg.End()
		end
	else
		if (ply:HasWeapon(args[1])) then
			ply:StripWeapon(args[2])
			ply:Give(args[1])
			umsg.Start("Change_Slot",ply) 
				umsg.String(args[1])
				umsg.Char(tonumber(args[3]))
			umsg.End()
		else
			return
		end
	end
end

concommand.Add("weapon_set",weapon_set)





function assign_weapon_slot(SlotMsg)

	for b,n in pairs(LocalPlayer():GetWeapons()) do 
		if ( n:GetClass() == SlotMsg:ReadString() ) then
			n.Slot = SlotMsg:ReadChar()
			n.slot = SlotMsg:ReadChar()
		end
	end
end

usermessage.Hook("Change_Slot",assign_weapon_slot)

Problem is, when it calls the usermessage, which doesn’t give an error, it doesn’t reassign the slot.

What is your main goal here? Are you trying to make it so you only have one primary secondary etc?

You cannot convert a char into its ASCII value by using G.tonumber, instead use string.byte.
