player_weaponstrip

Hi I have placed the player_weaponstrip in my map (for CS) but I still have weapons

Where do you place the entity (actually in the person or what?)

Thanx

I've never used this entity myself but I'd bet it has to be triggered.

You have to trigger it with a trigger_multiple or something and then everyone loses their weapons (including the knife!).

Build a brush covered in the AAA texture, and stretch it to cover all the info_terrorist/ct start points at your respawn.

Have it up to about knee height. Select the brush and tie it to a "trigger_multiple" entity (Keyboard shortcut - Ctrl+T).

Right click the trigger brush, go to its properties - click the
smartedit button, and add to the target field the name of your your
weaponstrip entity.

If it doesnt have a name (the weaponstrip), invent one so the trigger_ brush can target it.

Insted of creating 2 brushes at the spawn, here is an easier way.

Create a trigger_multiple point based entity (aka not a brush :smile: ) and give it the name game_playerspawn. You can place this anywhere in the map (except the void ). This name triggers it everytime the player spawns. Others include game_playerjoin, game_playerleave etc... but ignore them for now, game_playerspawn will do us fine.

Then create a player_weaponstrip and name it 'strip' w/o quotes. Now to configure your trigger_multiple. Turn off smartedit and create a new entry. The name should be the name of the player_weaponstrip (in this case 'strip') and the value should be the number of seconds after the player spawns when the entity should be 'triggered' (the value I normally use is 0.1). Thats the config done!

Your trigger_multiple config should now be:

trigger_multiple
name:game_playerspawn
strip:0.1

REMEMBER: This is not a brush, it is a point based entity :biggrin:

Any problems just contact me here :razz:

hi, im using the strip too in my map. but when a player triggers the strip, he cant pickup any weapons on the ground.. anyone knows how to fix that???

its a map where you pickup weapons during gameplay, and i need to make people loose weapons every round start...

isn't it like... a block entity ? make a big block like a buy zone and call it a player_weaponstrip or something, i know witchever it is it does no have to be triggered
