How can i make npcs ignore factions

Is is possible to do this for mpf, ota and CA? I seen it on a server, turrets would only should citizens but they ignored MPF , CA and OTA units. Anyway to do this? Thanks in advance.

 

You can try using http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=121388
And instead of checking player models you can try if (player:IsCombine) or however it goes. I have no clue if this will work as this is a really old addon and I came across a difficulty where it would only check which faction a player was in when they were created. So if you spawned a metropolice NPC while you were a citizen and had them to attack citizens, they would attack you. If you switched to the combine without respawning the NPC, they'd still attack you.

 

Editing it to work should be super possible.

 

Uhh, that addon looks like its out-dated. Anyone with good lua knowledge could help me on this?

Thanks for the replies by the way!

 

Code:

if player:IsCombine(player) then
			fact = "f_combine"

Been a while since I messed with LUA. If that doesn't work then try just player:IsCombine instead of player:IsCombine(player).

 

Sorry If I am being annoying, but where does that go exactly? Thanks for the reply once again.

 

This
---------------------------------------------------------------------

PHP:

function DoMove(ply,move)
    if ply:GetVar("faction") == nil then
        mdl = string.sub(ply:GetModel(),15,-5)
        local fact = ""
        if mdl=="police" || mdl == "combine_soldier" || mdl == "combine_soldier_prisonguard" || mdl == "combine_super_soldier" || mdl == "breen" then
            fact = "f_combine"

PHP:

function DoMove(ply,move)
    if ply:GetVar("faction") == nil then
        mdl = string.sub(ply:GetModel(),15,-5)
        local fact = ""
        if player:IsCombine(player) then
            fact = "f_combine"

Unfortunately that didn't work out for me , I have tried both ways :-\, thanks however.

 

What happens?

 

Silly you, it's SchemalayerIsCombine(player)

 

+1

There it is

 

Going to try it out, thank you all for helping m out.

 

THANK YOU!

You guys just gave me a brain wave on the easiest way to code this.

 

Am I right in thinking this would work in replacing the DoMove? I'm not sure whether when doing GetFaction I have the "Schema:" or not.

Code:

function DoMove(ply,move)
	if ply:GetVar("faction") == nil then
		local fact = ""
		if Schema:PlayerIsCombine(ply) or ply:Schema:GetFaction() == FACTION_CWU or ply:Schema:GetClass() == CLASS_ENSLAVED_NORM then
			fact = "f_combine"
		elseif ply:Schema:GetFaction() == FACTION_CITIZEN or ply:Schema:GetFaction() == FACTION_RESISTANCE or ply:Schema:GetClass() == CLASS_ENSLAVED_FREED then
			fact = "f_human"
		else 
			fact = "f_human"
		end
		ply:SetVar("faction",fact)
		ply:SetName(fact)
		ChangeFaction()
	end
end

 

Why are you using "ply" it should really be "player"

Also, "ply:SchemaGetFaction()" is not necessary just do something like

"local faction = player:GetFaction()" or just "player:GetFaction()" then just refer to faction when grabbing player faction.

 

It would actually be ply because of the parameters he's using.

 

It's within the plugin. The parameters in DoMove for player is 'ply' by default, and I don't see the need to change it. If this addon is changed to work as a plugin, I'm assuming I'd only need to do ply:GetFaction as opposed to ply:Schema:GetFaction ? Or doesn't it matter which way I do it?

 

May I ask you what are you even trying to do?

 

Make it so NPC cops don't shoot Combine players.

 

If you give me a couple of days I'm actually working on it so cops won't shoot citizens unless given Anti-Citizenship status.
