setting player weapon

[Blue_Dragn]

Is there anyway to do this? Say i want to have a certain weapon called to be the players active weapon (Thats activated when weaponfired)?

I tried a few things but have failed miserabally

Edit:

ive tried so far

selectedweapon =

but i think npcid changes, so that dosent work?
and i know you cant write #w like setplayerprop #w

NPC Code:

---

for (a = 0;a < weaponscount;a++) {

  if (strequals(#w(a),WeaponName)) selectedweapon = a;

}

---

?

(No, I don't like i.)

Well if youre doing it from serverside access, you could remove it from their inventory then readd it. The newest weapon added always gets focus.

****y:
if(hasweapon(weaponname)){
}
Sorry double posted, here

if(!hasweapon(weaponname)){
addweapon namehere; //serverside
}

If they don't have the weapon it will add it.

What Kat said is clearly the preferred way
Please think of the background work that has to happen when deleting and readding a weapon.

I hadnt thought of running it in a loop like that, thanks.
