Script Help

[Pixel 181]

Basically, I got a beginner's challenge to modding from Lossy, and he gave me this:

 

[00:36] [Raid]Lossy: spawn a random weapon trigger with a box model on a random spawn and if you press F on it, it will give you a random gun

 

So, I tried this, went on Zeroy's script reference etc, but I am getting an error in my script which I don't know what is causing it.

 

Code: http://hastebin.com/aqikonunay.coffee

 

Error:

Hmm think I found it. Supposed to be a : instead of ; ... my bad. But I can see another error popping up so I will edit this thread if I do

 

EDIT: Updated

            player switchToWeapon(" m40a3_mp ");
        break;

            player switchToWeapon( " ak47_mp ");
        break;

            player giveWeapon(" usp_mp ");
            player giveMaxAmmo(" usp_mp ");
            player switchToWeapon( " usp_mp ");
        break;
                    
    }
    
}

I think it should be something like this.

Why have you done precache()?

 

Can't I do that in main() ?

Yes you can but i put it there so you know it ;)

 

Added some new stuff for ya ;)

precache()
{
    precacheModel("ch_crate64x64");
}

box1()
{
	box = spawn("script_model", (-254 , 274 , 26));
	box setModel("ch_crate64x64");
	trigger = spawn( "trigger_radius", (-254, 274, 26), 0, 64, 64 );
	trigger.targetname = "box1";
	
	for(;;)
	{
		trigger waittill("trigger", player );
		if ( player isTouching( trigger ) && player useButtonPressed() )
		{
			weapon = randomInt(3);

			switch(weapon)
			{
			
				case 0:
					player giveWeapon(" m40a3_mp ");
					player giveMaxAmmo(" m40a3_mp ");
					player switchToWeapon(" m40a3_mp ");
				break;
					
						
				case 1:
					player giveWeapon(" ak47_mp ");
					player giveMaxAmmo(" ak47_mp ");
					player switchToWeapon( " ak47_mp ");
				break;
						
				case 2: 
					player giveWeapon(" usp_mp ");
					player giveMaxAmmo(" usp_mp ");
					player switchToWeapon( " usp_mp ");
				break;
							
			}
		}
		else
		{
		wait 0.5;
		}
	}
}

Not sure if it works but you could use something like that ;)

Psst... :ph34r: Had to wait for someone so challenge accepted  :P

 

 

It will not work on a server but it gives you the impression  :P

He makes you do a little bit yourself so you can learn :).
