How would i make it possible for my entity to have string inputs and outputs, ive already gotten regular wire ones but now there is the need to have strings for a few more ;]

You'll need the use of the "WireLib.CreateSpecialOutputs" or "WireLib.CreateSpecialInputs "command.

Example:

Code:

self.Outputs = WireLib.CreateSpecialOutputs(self.Entity,{"A"},{"STRING"})

but the way "ENT:TriggerInput" works doesn't change

Code:

self.Inputs = Wire_CreateSpecialInputs(self.Entity,{"useable","Price","[STRING] Item1","[STRING] Item2"},{"NORMAL","NORMAL","STRING","STRING"})

Thats what i have and it makes it so there are no inputs..

Are you getting any error or something? Normaly you should, because the command "Wire_CreateSpecialInputs" doesn't seem to exists in the wirelib.

So, as I said, use "WireLib.CreateSpecialInputs" or "WireLib.CreateSpecialOutputs"
