How to restrict ENTITIES and WEAPONS?

[MrPresident]

I learned LUA by looking at example code to see how it worked. Now I'm the greatest LUA coder on the planet. It is known.

You can't argue with that, because it's true.

yeah i learned (the little i know lol) in a few days by making a code from an example that i used and modified it

I really want to learn bad. I would have so many applications for it but I've never learned much by looking at others codes.

OK uh well go to youtube and find a good series OK? and then just pretty much do what they do then you'll learn the basics fast and if there is something you forget then just look on google there are a lot of archives and stuff but yeah just look up lua tut or something on youtube and it doesn't necessarily have to be an addon. Hope this helps!

Virtual Planets in your self-made gamemodes don't count!

Sam,
This Swep Hook you posted for SWEPS should work, as long as it's running on the server.

Code: [Select]

function DenySWEPs(ply, class)
    if not ply:IsUserGroup("donator") then
        ply:ChatPrint("You must be a donator to use this item!")
        return false
    end
end
hook.Add("PlayerSpawnSWEP", "DenySWEPs", DenySWEPs)
What do you not understand about it?
What doesn't work about it?

[Samg381]

Well, I placed it in the code and it had no effect whatsoever. Not sure what the issue is.

However, I have found a workaround and I am no longer in need of a quick solution.
Although a universal Entity/Swep User restrict code would be handy, I might just forget it.

[lampman13]

can you tell me your work around please?

[Samg381]

Sure.
I opened the URS configuration "urs_server.lua", and made a custom code on line 8.
It pretty much makes any user who spawns a donator+ weapon get a "You need to buy donator" message,
and everyone who is already a donator get the message "This entity is restricted for your group".
