Title: Spawn point by player name?
Post by: xxxMDjxxx on October 10, 2011, 05:00:42 pm

How could i make a player always spawn at a certain coordinate?

Lets say there is a player with a name "testplayer123"

So when this player joins the server or dies, he will spawn at a certain coordinate?

Other players will spawn at default spawnpoints...

You can check the player name with player.Name;
So on spawn you could do this:

Code: [Select]

function onPlayerSpawn( player, spawn )
{
if ( player.Name == "testplayer123" ) player.Pos = Vector( x, y, z );
}

The code is not working...

Code: [Select]

function onPlayerSpawn( player, spawn )
 if ( player.Name == "xXxMDjxXx" )
 {
  player.Pos = Vector( -812.2, 355.7, 51.32 );
  return 1;
 }
Have i done something wrong?

Err yes..

Code: [Select]

function onPlayerSpawn( player, spawn )
{
if ( player.Name.tolower() == "xxxmdjxxx" ) player.Pos = Vector( 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 );
return 1;
}

If there are multiple instances of onPlayerSpawn, it likely won't work, so you might want to check that. Same with having onPlayerSpawn in multiple script files.
