The script keeps giving me the error "exceeded maximum number of child0 scripts"

the mod itself loads but then once i spawn it freezes and gives that error.

Im pretty sure the error is in all the m40, w1200 and defultgun threads cause i copy pasted them.

Couldn't figure out how to use the code box thing so http://pastebin.com/HmfcXrG6

help would be helpful.

Uhm, could you explain exactly what you want the script 'to do' even?

 

I don't get why you put a loop in here e.g.:

 

    for(; //why looping? the thread is called everytime a player spawns...
               {
                       self endon("death"); //what is that doing here?!
                       if(getDvar("mapname") == "oilrig") { 
                               if (self.m40 == true) {
                                       self takeWeapon( curWep );

                                       wait 0.001;

                                       self giveWeapon( "m40a3", 0, false );
                                       wait 0.001;

                                       self switchToWeapon("m40a3");

                                       wait 0.05; 

                                       self giveMaxAmmo ("m40a3");
                                       }
                       } else {
                               self iPrintLnBold( "M40A3 Only Works On Oilrig" );
               }

 

Also, please use proper indentation next time and not so many huge white spaces....

I don't get why you put a loop in here e.g.:

 

 

I guess i could have been more descriptive, all it does is when you do +weap it takes you current wepon and vies you the m40, w1200, or the gun you had at the start. as for the forever loop it is there so when you do +weap it works, and the endon is there cause i threaded it in onplayerspawned and i don't want many copy's of the same thread running at once.

Ah, now i understand what you want.

Yes, but the endon should be above the loop and not in it...

 

Anyway, i will fix that script asap.

Cheers, thanks for the help.

Ok, i made it work like this:

 

- you type in: /+weap in console

- it says: weapon changes to m40a3 next spawn

-> next time you spawn you get m40a3 as primary

 

(w1200 if you type /+weap again, your default weapon when you type it a third time and so on...)

Oh and it should work in all gametypes on oilrig. On other maps it will show a message that m40a3 isn't available.

precacheItem("m40a3");
