Pointshop Banks, Shops and Item Gates

Second Warning: The MySQL saving format is currently not supported by this addon!





After 1000 hours of fiddling around in Garry's Mod, I have finally picked up the courage to start making my own addons.

This particular addon adds a Pointshop bank, a physical shop and an item gate/filter gate. Only admins may spawn shops and item gates.


The bank's saving methods are, in priority:
- based on the Pointshop sh_config's saving methods.
- stored into the server's BankStorage table.
- stored into the entity's BankStorage table.

Unlike Pointshop's shop UI, the physical shop has the ability to sell items that are admin only, unlisted or cannot be bought*. Please exercise caution when using it.

* To make an item that cannot be bought, add 'ITEM.CanPlayerBuy = false'.

The item gate/filter gate only allows users with a specified item equipped to pass.



banks_reset [player]

- Only those who have access to the Admin tab can use it.
- Resets the bank account of [player]. If unspecified, ALL bank accounts will be reset.
- This cannot be undone. You have been warned.

banks_display [player]

- Shows the amount of cash they have in storage. Shows everyone's storage if omitted.

banks_display_adminonly [value]

- Serverside console-only command.
- Sets whether the above command:
- 0: can be accessed by anyone.
- 1: can be accessed by admins only.
- 2: can be accessed by superadmins only.
- 3: can't be accessed.

banks_add [player] [amount]

banks_mysql_hostname [string]
banks_mysql_username [string]
banks_mysql_password [string]
banks_mysql_database [string]
banks_mysql_port [number]

- These convars only appear if you set MySQL as the data provider.
- Only the server console can read and store values into these convars.
- Sets the server address, username, password, database and port, respectively.
- A server restart is required for changes to take effect.



Please send me any suggestions to improve the UI. Any other suggestions/bug reports are also welcome, but don't expect me to perform and/or read all of them, as I am a really slow coder.

Thanks for reading, and have fun.

P.S.: The HUD seen in the screenshots is from Life Mod.
