                        A buy system. Buy weapons with money, kill enemies for money.
The .rar contains the source, a .bsp example map, and a clean map with
only the buy system in it. Info on using the system in a map is in a
readme in the .rar
Please, post any bugs you find in this topic. I already know of a bug
that makes hl2 crash when you try to load another map after having
loaded this one. So until I fix this, get around it by quitting hl2 and
then loading the other map. If a
mapper more experienced than I could point out why it makes hl2 crash,
that would be most appreciated. I also know the credits don't display
properly when 2 or more enemies die at the same time, but they display
properly when the credit amount is changed again, so its not too
catastrophic.
Enjoy, make cool missions with this.

                        This looks interesting, I'll give it a try. Certainly sounds like it's worth writing a tutorial for :wink:

                        So does anyone have any suggestions on fixing the hl2 crash when you
try to load another map after having loaded sp_purchases? Or, at the
very least, confirm there is a crash on their machine, since I haven't
tested it on another machine.
I really don't understand why it'd crash hl2 after loading a new map,
because if there's a problem with the entities it should be crashing
when it uses them, or on map load, not on map end. Makes my simple
brain spin.
