[prodigy285]

Hello im trying to make my server good so i downloaded the spawn player script mod but idk how to add it or cofig it any help and make it position were i want players spawned.

[Castillo]

Is really hard to help you if you don't even tell us what is the script you're talking about.

[prodigy285]

I said the spawn script.

p-spawn

[Castillo]

Do you even know how to install a resource on your server?

[prodigy285]

Yes i do.

[Castillo]

Then what do you mean by "config it"?

[prodigy285]

Because look http://prntscr.com/1ct2cn idk what to do is it like adding a resource if so how do i set the location to make my players spawn there?

[Castillo]

Well, the script has several variables inside, you just change them.

-- Settings for when a player joins 
    -- XYZ coördinates 
    local joinX = 0.0 
    local joinY = 0.0 
    local joinZ = 0.0 
    -- Weapon and ammo 
    local joinWeapon = 22 
    local joinAmmo = 200 
    -- Message when player joins 
    local joinMessage = "Welcome to this server." 
    -- Skin that player gets 
    local joinSkin = 0 
  
-- Settings for when a player dies 
    -- XYZ coördinates 
    local spawnX = 0.0 
    local spawnY = 0.0 
    local spawnZ = 0.0 
    -- Weapon and ammo 
    local spawnWeapon = 22 
    local spawnAmmo = 200 
    -- Skin that player gets 
    local spawnSkin = 0 
  
-- Settings for the amounts of money 
    -- Money the killer gets 
    local killerMoney = 500 
    -- Money removed from player when they die 
    local deadPlayerMoney = 500 
    -- Money you get when you join 
    local joinMoney = 1000

My question is were do i drop the 2 files and how putting numbers to = like spawn x y z is ganna get my players into place.

[Castillo]

You don't "drop" the files, you put it as a .ZIP or unpack it into a folder and place it on the resources folder.

[prodigy285]

MTASA folder>mods>deathmatch>resources or MTAsa folder>server>mods>deathmatch>resources

[iPrestege]

MTA > Server > Mods > DeathMatch > Resources .

[Castillo]

I asked you if you knew how to install resources, you said yes, why do you say yes if you don't really know how?

Read this manual: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Se ... our_server

[prodigy285]

Sorry for being annoying but do i just put the folder in there becase this what it looks like http://prntscr.com/1ct77h an di put the 2 files in a winrar zip also how do i set the spawn spot?

[iPrestege]

As you like zip or folder .

[prodigy285]

Basically its not a resource we are working with its a script thingy that idk how to install and to have working.

[Castillo]

Place the .zip you've downloaded into the folder.

[prodigy285]

http://prntscr.com/1ct8a0 now what how to set the spawn spot?

[Castillo]

Now you can unpack it with WINrar, then remove the .ZIP and leave the folder, then you can open the .lua file inside and set the variables inside.

[prodigy285]

Ok you told me put the 2 files in a folder or in a zip and place it in resource folder now you want me to unpack it and put just the folders in resource and also idk the variables for the spot i really want my players to spawn at.

[Castillo]

You don't really need that script, the MTA server by default has a spawn system.

[prodigy285]

Yea i seen a youtube video on it all you have to do is go to edit thingy press definitions then add ctf but then idk how to get to the ctf menu it says scroll down but when i do it doe snothing

[Castillo]

It has spawnpoints by default.
