Try to give certain weapons to all players by using a runloop ,it doesn't work well.

Sunen · **Author**

I wrote a runloop like this tring to give weapons to every player (include bot).

Code:

for (int playerindex = 2; playerindex <= MaxClients; playerindex++)
	{
		int iCmdFlags = GetCommandFlags("give");
		SetCommandFlags("give", iCmdFlags & ~FCVAR_CHEAT);
		FakeClientCommand(playerindex, "give katana");
		FakeClientCommand(playerindex, "give rifle_ak47");
		SetCommandFlags("give", iCmdFlags);
	}

If i set playerindex=0 ,it doesn't start.If 1,sometimes it works,sometimes not.
I wonder why is this?
Is there other ways to give weapons to everyplayer?

Code:

for (int i = 1; i <= MaxClients; i++)
{
	if (!IsClientInGame(i) || !IsPlayerAlive(i))
		continue;
	
	GivePlayerItem(i, "katana");
	GivePlayerItem(i, "rifle_ak47");
}

Assuming those entity names are correct, this should give those items to all players that can accept them.

The compilation went well.
But this doesn't work in game.

Code:

#include <sdktools>
GivePlayerItem(i, "katana");
GivePlayerItem(i, "weapon_ak47");

And these code works well.

Code:

int iCmdFlags = GetCommandFlags("give");
SetCommandFlags("give", iCmdFlags & ~FCVAR_CHEAT);
FakeClientCommand(playerindex, "give katana");
FakeClientCommand(playerindex, "give rifle_ak47");
SetCommandFlags("give", iCmdFlags);

I wonder if "GivePlayerItem" doesn't work in l4d2?
