I did need to think, but now I'm quite ashamed I did that...

           giveWeapon ( player, 30, 10000 ) 
           giveWeapon ( player, 22, 10000 ) 
           giveWeapon ( player, 27, 10000 ) 
           giveWeapon ( player, 32, 10000 ) 
           giveWeapon ( player, 16, 10000 ) 
           giveWeapon ( player, 44, 10000 ) 
           setPlayerArmor ( player, 100 ) 
           setPlayerSkin ( player, 287 ) 
           spawnPlayer ( player, 2725.2253417969, -2384.9313964844, 17.213558197021 ) 

I would actually think that while you're dead, and someone gives me weapons and then respawns me... That I don't have those weapons.

Try spawnPlayer in front of the first giveWeapon.

[Michael_Sund]

Oh thx

[Michael_Sund]

ok, sorry i haven't posted for years...

but now i got probs again, i want to get some cash ingame

but my snippet doesn't work

function consoleGiveCash ( thePlayer, command, amount ) 
        givePlayerMoney ( thePlayer, amount ) 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "givecash", consoleGiveCash  ) 

[Ace_Gambit]

function consoleGiveCash ( thePlayer, command, amount ) 
        givePlayerMoney ( thePlayer, amount ) 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "givecash", consoleGiveCash  ) 

Try this.

  
function consoleGiveCash ( thePlayer, command, amount ) 
        givePlayerMoney ( thePlayer, tonumber(amount) or 0 ) 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "givecash", consoleGiveCash  ) 
  

This converts the amount parameter to a numeric value and also makes sure that any bs input like blablabla is not crashing your script by automatically assigning 0 instead.

[Michael_Sund]

thx hope it works my server seems a little bitchy today

[Michael_Sund]

nope didn't work, damn i hate this server x'(

[50p]

You must be doing something wrong. Are you sure the file with command is added to meta.xml? Are you sure the server uses the updated file? Do you get any errors in debug window ("/debugscript 3")?

[Gamesnert]

50P... That reminds me of something...

Is this script server-side, or client-side..?

And indeed do "/debugscript 3" in-game.

Also, can you give all the errors/warnings/whatever your script (I mean: that section) gives? Might help.

[Michael_Sund]

i believe this can be because i added the KIHC as include to my GM, and none of the new scripts i made isn't working and kihc is a bit weird too because i get wrnings and stuff in the console, and i can't use the most of the commands in it weird

[churchill]

there's nothing that can't be fixed - you just need some patience, and some information to work things out. Seriously, login as your admin user on your server, and then type debugscript 3 in the console. you'll get a message to say your debugscript has been set accordingly and then you'll get some nice messages explaining where in your script things are going wrong. if that fails, start adding outputChatBox("someVariable=" .. someVariable) where someVariable is a variable you are using in your code. You do this to a) ensure your code reaches the expected point and b) check that your variable contains the value that you expect, or whether it's returning nil or false.

[Michael_Sund]

umm, debugscript 3= this error: "debugscript: Incorrect client type for this command" ???wtf

[Gamesnert]

And indeed do "/debugscript 3" in-game.

[Michael_Sund]

And indeed do "/debugscript 3" in-game.

OH, that's so LOLOLOL that i missed it

[Michael_Sund]

Hmm, i haven't done anymore changes for the moment, you got any ideas for my server?

I'll maybe clean up the script and release it today

[haybail]

You could do moveable gates at the teams bases.

And maybe a map file to accompany the script.

[Gamesnert]

And is it easily editable? Not that you need to modify the entire script to get the result you want?

[Ace_Gambit]

I'd like to see the result too after all those people who've put effort into this thread lol.

[Gamesnert]

I'd like to see the result too after all those people who've put effort into this thread lol.

Hehehe. I would like to see the results too. And see if it's good!

A 5 pages topic... Should be good enough.

[Scarface]

This looks really good!

[Michael_Sund]

The only stuff which is scripted by me right now is the team like cops, army and civilians i got help by Gamesnert, Ace_Gambit, Churchill and many more, if your name isn't here it's because i got bad memory

And i'm using others resources too...

I got a private map file

It's not really good cleaned, if someone would want to make the script better and clean it up make it easier to edit just tell me to attach the file here.

But if you're gonna edit it don't delete any of the functions ^^

I would really appreciate some cleaning and fixing

And BTW i was going to upload as resource but then it said wrong file format, and when i wanted to try again about 100 lines of description was gone

EDIT: I have attached the files.

[attachment=0]Michael's_RPG.rar[/attachment]

[Mr.Hankey]

it said wrong file format because you didnt zip it but used winrar instead so it became .rar and not .zip

Not bad, but could be better.

And what does the .bak file do? ^^

And I'm actually quite scared about cops walking around with Assault Rifles+DEagles

And ofcourse a soldier with 9999 Grenades... How heavy!

Further more: Nice little script.

I would suggest you to work some more on it. For example movable gates for the army?
