Other Equipable Item on Spawn

Hi, referring to http://forums.cloudsixteen.com/thre...groups-on-my-clothing-item.37894/#post-281836;

Code:

local ITEM = Clockwork.item:New("equipable_item_base");
ITEM.name = "Metrocop Vest";
ITEM.uniqueID = "metrocop_vest";
ITEM.model = "models/tnb/items/shirt_metrocop.mdl";
ITEM.cost = 10;
ITEM.weight = 2;
ITEM.business = true;
ITEM.category = "Clothing";
ITEM.access = "z";
ITEM.description = "A Metrocop vest with light armor.";

-- Called when a player uses the item.
function ITEM:OnUse(player, itemEntity)
    findTorso = player:FindBodygroupByName("Torso");
    player:SetBodygroup(findTorso, 6);

    if (player:Alive() and !player:IsRagdolled()) then
        if (self:GetData("equipped") != true) then
            if (self:CanPlayerWear(player, itemEntity) != false) then
                self:SetData("equipped", true);
                self:OnWearItem(player, true);
                player:RebuildInventory();
                return true;
            end;
        else
            Clockwork.player:Notify(player, "You are already wearing this item!");
        end;
    else
        Clockwork.player:Notify(player, "You cannot do this action at the moment!");
    end;
   
    return false;
end;

function ITEM:OnPlayerUnequipped(player, extraData)
    findTorso = player:FindBodygroupByName("Torso");
    player:SetBodygroup(findTorso, 0);

    self:OnWearItem(player, false);
    player:RebuildInventory();
end;

function ITEM:OnStorageGive(player, storageTable)
    if (self:GetData("equipped") == true) then
        self:OnWearItem(player, false);
    end;
end;

function ITEM:OnDrop(player, position)
    findTorso = player:FindBodygroupByName("Torso");
    player:SetBodygroup(findTorso, 0);

    if (self:GetData("equipped") == true) then
        self:OnWearItem(player, false);
    end;
end;

-- Called when a player's character has loaded.
function Clockwork:PlayerCharacterLoaded(player)
        findTorso = player:FindBodygroupByName("Torso");
        player:SetBodygroup(findTorso, 0);
end;

ITEM:Register();

How do you ensure equipped items are shown when a character loads in? As it is, this code does not show equipped items on spawn. And once equipped, the next character I load in has their bodygroups manipulated as well, depsite not having this item equipped.

Thank you!

 

1. You can't afaik.
2. That issue has been around for years. No fix.

 

Why does clothing base have these capabilities, but it is impossible to make it work w/ bodygroups? I'm confused.
