Unfortunately Steam is likely to blame for the missing options. As it works just fine with my setup.

If I get another report of it I will start doing extra testing to see if the server I run with this still works or not. But nothing should have changed, so everything should still be functioning...

I have the same problem with the WeShop options not appearing, I only have this addon installed (never touched the other one) and I attempted unsubbing and resubbing to the mod two times and it still didn't work. So I dunno what else could be happening.

Only subscribe to *one* version of the addon. Do not subscribe to both at the same time. They will conflict. Also if the resub doesn't work, since the addon is working perfectly fine with my setup, I do not know how further to help you.

i have 1000+ hours on gmod and i have tired resubbing to both verisons of the mod

You have it collapsed then because the category would not be there if there's nothing under it. Expand it, and the answers you seek lie there. If it still doesn't have anything under it, you probably have a corrupt download and need to unsub and resub to fix it.

i see weshop admin but under it there is no options

OK, so...

You mean to tell me that, when you look at the "Options" part of the tool menu on the right side of the spawn list, you don't see "WeShop Admin"?

it ask me to set buy-able weapons in the spawnlist options

What do you mean by "options in the spawnlist," @hes_madyes?

the options in the spawnlist dont show up

ok thanks ! i'll try it out

The MK1 runs off of kills; every 4 kills it spawns a money entity which can be picked up by anyone.
The MK2 uses the printer assets which I explained already.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/12f4RBSw7EwpZPNOwZ1zYlYl0Lh1w6leI?usp=drive_link

Here's the public assets I have uploaded; this includes the two printers I made, one of which uses another printer's entities to upgrade it [and can overheat].

Well there's no point in the printers if it is spawnable by everyone.

Plus, its hard to balance the printers to work with economy as it is different for every player.

So yeah, I'll try to export the blueprint and see if I can share it here.

oh that nice, yes I am curious about it. do you want to know why I asked that in the first place ? I like the idea of people fighting over printers in sandbox, like something forcing the interaction. It would make sandbox way less boring

@Notispadiko
Funny story about that, I did actually make a money printer entity using GMOD Blueprints.

And because of the changes I made to this addon to allow modifying the player's money via setting data (and pinging the player with changes), it actually works quite well.

If you are curious I could see about attaching the Blueprint.

I love this mod 10/10, it would also be great to have a money printer entity btw

Hi...
So sometimes Workshop doesn't download addons correctly. In that case, yeah, it can fix itself. That's not an issue I can fix. Sorry!

and now it's fixed


wth

hello hi, for some reason whenever i try saving a preset it doesn't show up in the presets just a heads up. i don't know if im the only person getting this

Alrighty thx for the answer

@E-4 Sgt. Tom

The place you can find this is under your install's Data (Steam/apps/common/GarrysMod/garrysmod/data/weshop). This provides all data stored by the addon. And thank you for adding a FAQ question for me.

where can I find my saved shop txt?

@w4defish

That's defined by the end user via the parameters set... If you're referring to multiple guns using the same ammo type however, well, unfortunately there's no real easy way around that.

would it be possible to have it so that the ammount of ammo given in a singular purchase is equivalent to that weapons clip size, and then the max is just like 10 clips or something?

@Famous5000 Sure thing, if I got anything else about the mod issue, I take care of that, so yeah

Regardless I've created an issue on Github (#28); if you want to comment on that issue feel free to.

The weird thing is that it *shouldn't* be popping up at all... The network messages which the mod uses should have correct lengths taken care of, unless the latest patch caused some issues that I'd need to fix... Please check and make sure the addon's properly installed (Validate installed files) and if the issue still persists I'll check on the issue once I get a free moment, unless @w.black57 is willing to help test and confirm.

@Famous5000 Before gmod releasing a patch theres no error like this when buying ammo, after gmod release this patch, it popped up somehow, I run only few mods that I use like, ARC9 and things like that.

@ZendoVG
That sounds like a mod conflict... What mods are you running? And please do testing to find out what mod is causing the conflict so I can figure out what's going on a bit better.

As soon I prompted to buy ammo for the current weapon, this pop up
[Sandbox Weapon Shop and Money System] Trying to read more data (32 bit) than the net message has left (6 bits)!
1. func - lua/entities/weshop/init.lua:2064
2. unknown - lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:34
It happened after gmod released a small patch just now

new information: works in singleplayer with wiremod

I've logged the issue on the Github issue tracker; that'll be one of the first things I tackle once I get a free moment. If you feel you can help with debugging the issue and getting exact specifics to happen feel free to comment on the latest issue (#27) on the Github.

Strangely enough I play *with* Wiremod and haven't had any issues before... Maybe something changed on their end which makes it incompatible... I'll investigate once I have time.

it IS a wiremod incompabillity, retrying the entity thing, there are NO errors, when wiremod is disabled (test done in singleplayer) presets work too

something that may be happening, is a wiremod incompabillity, because wiremod expression 2 has a file, in basically the same path, for wiremod e2 extentions.

what about being unable to add entities with some weaponbyclass thing?

OK, please confirm if the issue persists when it's *just this addon* present. If it doesn't happen then retry with the full mod list you have and tell me the results, @Luca1808. Those tables should not be nil, and it's concerning that it is nil.

i also have issues making presets: [Sandbox Weapon Shop and Money System] lua/entities/weshop/init.lua:1960: bad argument #1 to 'TableToJSON' (table expected, got nil)
1. TableToJSON - [C]:-1

3. func - lua/entities/weshop/init.lua:2813
4. unknown - lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:34

i have a large amount of errors, first off i cannot add entities to the store, and after attempting to, the store breaks error: [Sandbox Weapon Shop and Money System] lua/entities/weshop/init.lua:1160: bad argument #1 to 'ipairs' (table expected, got nil)
1. ipairs - [C]:-1
2. FindWeaponByClass - lua/entities/weshop/init.lua:1160
3. unknown - lua/entities/weshop/init.lua:2432

That seems... Odd... What mods are you running @dinogutt? Can you reproduce the issue if you're just using this mod?

The money-counter doesnt show on the hud, and I get an error message when I try to open the shop.
[Sandbox Weapon Shop and Money System] lua/entities/weshop/init.lua:1960: bad argument #1 to 'TableToJSON' (table expected, got nil)

Are there any known causes or mod incompabilites that cause this?

Past this point, complaints regarding NPCs being broken, unless it's sent to the Github with good information, will be deleted. Please read the description.

OK guess I'm putting a caution on the addon's page which indicates that NPCs aren't supported at the moment.

i cant spawn custom npcs even if they have the default game classes (combine citizen)

hmm... Thanks for the reports and the addon links. I'll investigate if I can, don't expect much luck though...

HLW Rebel Special Units seem to work totally fine:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2571249023

ZBASE rebel NPCs spawn, but sadly without a weapon. (Beside Gordon, as he can switch weapons.)

You can make them pick up weapons with this addon:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3255679741
(But you will need to add all custom NPCs to the supported list in this addon manually.)

Finally you can use this addon to make them follow you, teleport close or run to position under your crosshair: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3309330691

Yeah, I've had some success with buying any npc that's specifically not from the rebel faction. Rebels just don't spawn at all even though I can buy combine, zombies and all the like.

Thanks for lookin' into it. :)

@Mr. Troll
So to clarify you're trying to buy NPCs, correct? Currently I don't think buying NPCs is supported by this addon, however, I did put it as an issue on the GitHub, which is basically acting as my TO-DO list for the future. Most likely it'll be a toggle when adding a price to regular entities; "is this an NPC?".

@Mr. Troll
I'll take a look when I get a free moment and see if I can figure out what's going on. If I can fix it I'll put out a hotfix, if not, I will put cautions up on the workshop itself.

@Ace Beta
Uh... Singleplayer or server?
