GivePedWeapon

From Multi Theft Auto: Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This function gives the specified weapon to the specified ped. This function can't be used on players, use giveWeapon for that.

This function is mainly useful for client side created peds however you can use it on a server side ped, though note that the weapon wouldn't be synced between clients unless your script gives the weapon to the ped on every client.

There is an optional argument to specify ammunition and whether to set as the current weapon. If you don't specify an ammo value it will give 30 ammo by default and for a melee weapon you can specify just 1 or above.

[[{{{image}}}|link=|]] Note:
  • When setting ammo for weapons in slot 0,1,10,11 or 12 the maximum ammo is 1
  • When setting ammo for weapons in slot 3,4,5 the ammo is added
  • When setting ammo for weapons in slot 2,6,7,8,9 and the slot weapon is changing, the ammo is replaced

function cmdArmedPed( command )
    local x, y, z = getElementPosition(localPlayer) -- Get your position
    local thePed = createPed(0, x + 1, y, z) -- Create a CJ ped nearby
    givePedWeapon(thePed, 31, 5000, true) -- Give him 5000 rounds of M4
    setControlState(thePed, "fire", true) -- Make him shoot continuously
end
addCommandHandler("armedped", cmdArmedPed)
