E2: Few new functions

[d3cr1pt0r]

Hello,

I decided to start learning lua, so this is my first thing I made. Some usefull and not usefull E2 functions you can use.

[highlight=lua]
AddCSLuaFile('custom.lua')

registerFunction("setEyeAngle", "e:a", "", function(self,args)
local op1, op2 = args[2], args[3]
local rv1, rv2 = op1[1](self,op1), op2[1](self,op2)
if(!self.player) then return end
rv1:SetEyeAngles(Angle(rv2[1],rv2[2],rv2[3]))
end)

registerFunction("setPos", "e:v", "", function(self,args)
local op1, op2 = args[2], args[3]
local rv1, rv2 = op1[1](self,op1), op2[1](self,op2)
if(!validEntity(rv1)) then return end
rv1:SetPos(Vector(rv2[1],rv2[2],rv2[3]))
end)

registerFunction("setRunSpeed", "n", "", function(self,args)
local op1 = args[2]
local rv1 = op1[1](self,op1)
if(!self.player) then return end
self.player:SetRunSpeed(rv1)
end)

registerFunction("setGravity", "n", "", function(self,args)
local op1 = args[2]
local rv1 = op1[1](self,op1)
self.player:SetGravity(rv1)
end)

registerFunction("chatPrint", "e:s", "", function(self,args)
local op1, op2 = args[2], args[3]
local rv1, rv2 = op1[1](self,op1), op2[1](self,op2)
rv1:ChatPrint(rv2)
end)

registerFunction("createRagdoll", "", "", function(self,args)
self.player:CreateRagdoll()
end)

registerFunction("sendLua", "s", "", function(self,args)
local op1 = args[2]
local rv1 = op1[1](self,op1)
if(!self.player or !self.player:IsAdmin()) then return end
self.player:SendLua(rv1)
end)

registerFunction("concmd", "e:s", "", function(self, args)
local op1, op2 = args[2], args[3]
local rv1, rv2 = op1[1](self, op1), op2[1](self, op2)
if(!self.player:IsValid() or !self.player:IsAdmin()) then return end
rv1:ConCommand(rv2)
end)

E:setEyeAngle(A) - Sets the screen view to a desired angle
E:setPos(V) - Will move a prop to a desired position (vector input)
E:chatPrint(S) - Will print a string in the targets chat field
E:concmd(S) - Just extended normal concmd. In this one, you can run a console command on someone else, but you need to be admin.
setRunSpeed(N) - Will set your speed you rum/sprint
setGravity(N) - Sets gravity that affects only the chip owner (default=1)
createRagdoll() - Will drop a ragdoll from your position
sendLua(S) - Sends a lua command to client

Thanks to n00berific for help.

Nice codes, but I don't see the point in the createRagdoll function.

[Donkie]

Me thinks its like the ULX ragdoll command?

[d3cr1pt0r]

No it shoves a ragdoll from you. I made that just for fun. It looks epic if you put it under interval(10).

[Eirath245]

Epic and Laggy :P?

Cool, though. I think we're going to reach a point where the whole functionality of lua is going to be exposed through E2 commands xD

setAngle would work for making a makeshift aimbot, no?

[ZeikJT]

You should check out the prop repositioning I put on the Unofficial expression function wiki:
Expression 2 - Prop Repositioning - GMod Wiki

It includes checks for frozen props to move them properly. If not you may have noticed it will look like it is in the same place but when you phys gun it it teleports to the new position.

The other ones like look fun

He already did

Damn, if I ever get my own server I'm gonna have setPos(), no more teleport noise and tiny, though I might learn some lua and restrict it to only me and my admins.

You can simply restrict it to admins only by just adding 1 more thing to 1 line:

[highlight=lua]
registerFunction("setPos", "e:v", "", function(self,args)
local op1, op2 = args[2], args[3]
local rv1, rv2 = op1[1](self,op1), op2[1](self,op2)
if(!validEntity(rv1) or !self.player:IsAdmin()) then return end
rv1:SetPos(Vector(rv2[1],rv2[2],rv2[3]))
end)
