function coltSend(client) 

Remove 'client' from there.

ok thanks but is this gonna give colt 45 to every single player or just the one who triggered event?(while using client as player element)

[Castillo]

Just the one who triggered the event.

For no one it will work, because 'thePlayer' is not defined. Change it to 'source' to give only the player who triggered a weapon:

function coltSend() 
giveWeapon(source,22,200) 
end 
addEvent("onColtRequest",true) 
addEventHandler("onColtRequest",root,coltSend)

Ah, he edited the script, the original was using 'client' which is also a pre-defined variable like 'source' when triggering events.

Yes, I understood out of the Wiki that 'client' has to be used instead of 'source' because it's safer?

[Castillo]

That's what I read aswell, so I guess is safer.

i forgot to re-re-edit my topic,sorry i was using client and it worked out but i was confused whether it would give the gun to everybody or just that 1 player who triggered event because of:

The client class represents any client that is connected to the server.

anyway thanks guys it works

[Castillo]

You're welcome.
