Also Kaimetsu is right, your script would do bugger all..

With that script you could simply select another weapon.
Use timeouts and set selectedweapon to this weapon always.
I did so in the Nimda sparring.

But we are off-topic now.

We wanted to disable the sword, and just the sword.
By doing "setsword no-sword.png,0;" you still have a zero displayed.
Using disabledefmovement would hide that, but I couldn't carry NPCs anymore.
I know how to carry tile objects like bushes and so, and yes I could even make the player carry a bomb, but I can't make him carry a whole script.

if (playerenters) {
if (!isweapon) {
toweapons NoWeaponSelected;
}
disableselectweapons;
timeout = .05;
}

if (timeout) {
if (!strequals(#w(selectedweapon),NoWeaponSelected)) {
for (this.index = 0; this.index <= weaponscount; this.index++){
if (strequals(#w(this.index),NoWeaponSelected))
break;
}
selectedweapon = this.index;
}
timeout = .05;
}

That should be the correct way to disable npc weapons...
almost forgot the disable q select

[R0b1n-NPC]

disableweapons;

That disables all weaons including D NPCs.
His just stops the sword from working.

Disable Weapons does not let you use your sword...
that script lets you use your sword...

also, I had to re-edit because I forgot about disableselectweapons;

Hmm. Surely shoot and putnpc2 could do the trick. I'm not sure, I haven't ever really used shoot.

But it's the way it works
after doing shoot the control-npc would get triggered, you set some params with setshootparams and it reads them out
after this you can place the right NPC whre you actually throw it

Why would you really want to disable JUST the sword?? I generally do it the other way, KEEP just the sword, in which case you run it on a timeout, and have it set a this.var of what the selectedweapon is. Such as like:

NPC Code:

---

if (created)

{ toweapons *Sword-Only;

   this.weap=selectedweapon;

  timeout=0.25;

}



if (timeout)

{ if (!selectedweapon=this.weap)

   { selectedweapon=this.weap;}

  timeout=0.25;

}

---

Is it setting the selected weapon or setplayerprop, god, I dunno, I have one I made that I just repeatedly used. I'm scripted out for a few days, I just made a security system, took AGES to do, it wasn't necessarily hard, just long coded. Angel wanted it scripted, so I did :P I worked on it a total of three days, but it was mostly sitting down and doing one thing, coming back hours l8er or what not It's got a keypad that you can click or type in.

I don't think that would work as good as the example I posted earlier because the weapon's index would change if a weapon whose index is lower gets deleted.

Also one reason why to have the sword disabled is so you can have a server whose primary weapon is not a sword. Like for instance it could be a regular pistol or socom.
