gg_cheap_equip

Description:
Allows players to re-equip themselves in game using the !equip (by default) command.

NOTE: This has the same function as the !give command used in GunGame4, but gg_cheap_equip will not fix any issues in GunGame5.
NOTE: There is no "incorrect weapons" bug to be fixed in GunGame5, but I found that many people liked using the !give command in GunGame4 to reload themselves quickly. This lets you use that exploit.

Installation:

• Extract this file to your server
• Restart your server or reload GunGame

Is ther a way to setup a dely, maybe a time delay or only allowed to use X amount of times per round would be better

GunGame5 Cheap Equip Updated!
Version: 1.0.1
Updated on: 2008-11-17 01:32:49
Version Notes:
Added a gg_cheap_equip_uses variable to the configs. This controls how many times players can use the command per round.

If people like using it to reload quicker, surely we could just make an unlimited ammo addon?

I just want to point something out:

There was a bug in GG3 and GG4 that allowed a player to sometimes pickup the wrong weapon when leveling up. The !give command was created to help rectify this deficiency. The intent of !give was never to be a fast reload exploit, but that's how allot of people use it.

In GG5 you will always get the correct weapon. So the only use of this script is for a faster than normal reload time.

You didn't read that description RideGuy? ^^ ;D

I read the description. I just want it to be clear.

GunGame5 Cheap Equip Updated!
Version: 1.0.2
Updated on: 2008-11-20 16:47:43
Version Notes:
Added the ability to disallow the command on specific levels.

wow, very nice option that is great

Great job ScOpE. Most of the players om my servers would miss this option on the GG5 server, so I'm glad you made this available and it works great!!!

is there anyway of making the command useable in console so it can be bound to a key?

In gg_cheap_equip.cfg, if you set:



The script bombs out when someone uses the command with this error:

GunGame5 Cheap Equip Updated!
Version: 1.0.3
Updated on: 2009-02-21 22:11:54
Version Notes:
gg_cheap_equip_uses now is based on lives instead of rounds.
Fixed an error caused by gg_cheap_equip_exceptions 0.

Not sure what this is about but my console gets spammed with it.

I'm getting the following:

thoughts?

This is not how you load GunGame5 custom addons. Simply type gg_cheap_equip 1 in console, reload GunGame5, or restart the server.

a server restart got it working (before that gg_cheap_equip wasn't added as a valid command in console).

Any word on the " File "D:\HLServer\csserver\cstrike\addons\eventscripts\gungame\custom_addons\gg_cheap_equip\gg_cheap_equip.py", line 63, in player_death" type error? I'm getting those as well.

Thanks!

The error shouldn't really affect gameplay. But to fix it, just change:
to
Satoon

Hello, the above patch seems to work great, thanks!

Sorry to continue to bother, but does anyone know if it's possible to only permit one "!equip" per level? In other words I want to prevent it from being used the way !give is used to reload ammo quickly.

What I want to happen is use nonturbo gungame, you earn a level, you can stay on your current gun if you have more people to battle. Once you get to a quiet spot, you can !equip and move to the next weapon. However I don't want people to be able to !equip if they are already holding the weapon for the level they have earned. If they could still replace a weapon that they accidentally dropped with !equip that would be ideal, but not critical.

You may ask why I don't just run turbo, and the reason is with turbo sometimes if you face off against several enemies at once, you have to wait for a weapon switch before you can return fire, and die in the interim. This I want to avoid.

Thanks for all of the help!
