Custom weapon firing but not damaging

[Elmatus]

Hi, thanks everyone beforehand

I'm making a script o attach a m4 in a migun base and that a player can enter it and shoot.

When I tested it with a friend in the server, he doesn't see the bullets coming out. I made it shootable everywhere (me far from the minigun bae) and I stepped in front of it, and I do get killed.

I think the problem has to be with being client-side. But createWeapon is only a client-side function.

Here is the function that fires the weapon:

Client-side

  
  
customWeapon = createWeapon ("m4",0,0,0) 
setElementAlpha(customWeapon,0) 
setElementCollisionsEnabled(customWeapon,false) -- For field of view bug 
attachElements (customWeapon,minigun,0.5,0,1.1,0,0,0) 
setWeaponClipAmmo(customWeapon, 99999) 
setWeaponFlags (customWeapon, "disable_model",true) -- Hides it 
setWeaponFiringRate(customWeapon,50) 
  
function startFiring (_, state) 
    if state == "down" then setWeaponState(customWeapon, "firing") 
    else setWeaponState(customWeapon, "ready") 
    end 
end 
  
bindKey ("mouse1","both",startFiring)

Your problem is that you didn't sync your function to the server side, use triggerServerClient and then triggerClientEvent for all the players in the server

I didn't realize that, thanks! I have another question, too small for making it a post.

Can you get a return in server-side, by a client-side? Or vice versa

Not directly - there's the callback method via events though.

You can just use triggerServerEvent to trigger back
