You should add a setting to allow only special infected or common infected to disarm you, Its cool to have a tank disarm me whereas its annoying to lose my gun in the middle of a horde with nothing but a pistol to kill them

Ellis doesn't get stumbled there, he just runs away

You should make the survivors stumble when they drop a weapon, similar to the video

@Geebanger0

Many thanks for the explanation, I hope you have a fantastic night and good fortune on future projects!

If you get an error, it means that at some point during this the script failed. So long as it still otherwise works though, it's fine. Almost every script I make produces errors in console constantly. I don't know how/can't be bothered to make them in such a way that they don't produce the errors. The scripts still work perfectly fine otherwise, and most people don't check the console at all so they won't even know.

So yeah, unless the script doesn't work, you don't have to worry about the errors.

The function basically means this

When a player takes damage:
- Check which player it was who took the damage
- Check what damage type that player took. Every damage type has a corresponding number
- If the damage type equals 128 (which it should if a common infected hit the player):
-- Continue with the rest of the script

Hey I don't know if you still watch over this mod but on line 117 to 122 which is this:

function OnGameEvent_player_hurt(event)
{
local victim = GetPlayerFromUserID(event.userid);
local damagetype = event.type;
if(damagetype == 128)

I think this is what causes error problems on my computer, as in the console it show it as "type is not a valid" something of this sort. I was wondering if you can explain what this function does and maybe review it to see if it happens on your end too.

Thank you for your time! :-3

@an apocalypse fae It's not like anyone's asking you to download this lol

i'd like to keep my reserve ammo :/

is it possible to add a variable in the cfg to blacklist what weapons can be dropped?

thank you. i found it the mod causing it but, curiously, it seems this mod has an error actually

@SP-Calamitas , the file is inside the vpk file. Use GCFScape tool to check what's inside the vpk file. The mod that has that error must be related to item drop mechanisms.

thanks for the insight. how would i go about doing this? using wiztree i cant seem to find a file with that name or a folder called vscripts

@SP-Calamitas , I think you mistook it for other mod. I checked this mod, & this mod didn't use "weapon_drop". The clue is on that " scripts/vscripts/DropDaGun.nut ". This mod uses "director_base_addon.nut" so if there's an error, the error would be like this instead: " scripts/vscripts/director_base_addon.nut ".
So, the error in your case is caused by other mod. You need to find the mod that uses that "DropDaGun.nut".

yes but this error pops up in the console

does the script still work?

go for it dude itd be funny

oh ok. I dont know how to prevent a stagger, but i can make the second thing

what? oh nah sorry for the confusion. my request is completely unrelated to this mod; i was thinking to prevent the player from staggering when on green (or whatever health in cfg). but the thought of infected smacking the survivors around sounds hilarious too.

so the same as this but with stagger instead of dropping your gun?

is alr....instead how about a mod that only allows you to get staggered when ur below a certain (configurable) amount of health?

well... nah. I could do it. I just didnt see much point is all

darn nvm then

i could but itd take ages

can you add a configurable setting to tweak which weapons can get dropped or not?

Only thing I gotta say about this mod: Dicks.
Ngl, got the Nightmare collection with this mod and I was so thrown back by my sudden missing gun. I mean, I love it, but damn, half the time I didn't know where my gun was. Still a solid 10/10.

yeah it should work

Does it work well with this mod? https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3190399417

Thx ! I love the idea and i need that ! But for consistency with other mod as well as for QoL would it be possible to add an indication on the HUD to have a marker where the weapon is located (like in "current item drop on immobilization") ?

pretty sure it's broken or a conflict, it's occuring 100% of the time, but i love the idea

Much obliged

I love these mods, keep em up man!

Survivor dropping weapon.
Bots: Its free real estate

@The Austrian Painter It is the default G3 sniper in the game or "Military Rifle", as they like to call it.

what gun is that ellis has

I have something goofy in my mind, Make every single special have the knockback of a normal tank, that would be absolutely goofy. idk why but flying is funi.

much obliged

geebanger really lives for his name, he makes banger mods like these

YES! This will make my game much harder & balance more of my pros that I have in the game w/more cons. I need my difficulty to be much higher than expert, w/these small details.

Gee never fails to make bangers.

this is some grim shit we got ourselves into

The immerzion is real
