    Default Lua Wire entity/stool tutorial needed

    Hi everyone.

    Recently I tried to find a tutorial that clearly explained how to make a wire entity or stool, and found nothing. I already know a fair amount of lua, and I look at the code in other ents and stools and can understand what it's doing, but the moment I try to make something myself it all goes wrong. My worst attempt so far it didn't even show up in the tool menu, my best so far I could select tool, it would show ghost, but when I click to try and spawn it would come up with an eror message saying the lua attempted to run MakeWireAdvKeyboardController (boolean value). I observed all related code and found one boolean value, which I accounted for by removing and setting what it changed myself.

    I would like someone, anyone, to make or provide me with a link to a tutorial that clearly explains how to do this. I know the basis of this but would still like everything other than basic syntax, etc that can be found in the wiremod ent and stool files explained.

    Thanks in advance
    Beowulf

    If you'd a look on this page, there is a forum-search. Yesterday BlackholeWM asked the same thing.

    Lua - GMod Wiki

    There's a whole bunch of Lua there, if that doesn't help you I am sorry. :P I also just look at code snippets from pre-made stools and such.

    Add me on Steam omicronium@hotmail.com perhaps we can both figure this stuff out.

    Yeah, the gmod wiki lua doesn't help that much, btw your account says that oyu havn't logged in for more than a year, if it's not actually you, add me as SchwarzeFuch (german for BlackFox)

    EDIT: oh, and i can't find that thread you were talking about satans, i went back a week and couldn't see it, went into all by blackhole, too.
