you can kill Generic_actor and some Func_door connected by trigger.

There should be a blacklist on invincible NPCs like Half-Life 1 Gman and npc_furniture.

Don't want to type things forever. :P

i will try making a workaround for outliers

Comments can be impossible to type since they can contain Non-English characters. (I had a short russian phrase pop up a handful of times)

There should be an option to attack NPCs of different dispositions (I.e. only attack Combine & Zombies)

there are 2 short russian prompts how am i meant to type those

To everyone saying they can't type non-English letters, you can refresh the prompt by typing R and pressing ENTER in the chatbox.

i freaking it hate when i have to use a capital letter on the start of the word.

I am playing through HL2 campaign with this mod, and helicopters are kind of seeming to be invincible. That may be worth looking into.

hmm i think i can do something about this

[Type to KILL - Kill enemies with words!] lua/autorun/sh_gmod_totd.lua:851: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'gtotd_total_char_typed' (a nil value)
1. v - lua/autorun/sh_gmod_totd.lua:851
2. unknown - lua/includes/modules/hook.lua:96

Getting this as an error, It seems the trigger is rerolling what you have to type while there are still visible things to type, then getting to a new enemy, it throws up this error in console with each key press instead of allowing any inputs.

hmm could you re-elaborate? i dont quite comprehend your report im a bit slow...when does the error occur and does the error occur every time you type?

Ok, the way I discovered it is by encountering a language I couldn't type, so I used R to refresh the prompts, but after I deal with those enemies and get to the next encounter, I try to type the prompt I see and no matter what key I press that error appears each time and the prompt isn't progressed.

If it helps at all I was in a campaign style map, so the enemies I encountered may have been spawned in already, but I hadn't reached them to get a prompt yet.

yeah i recreated the error in Shootbang map pack
still investigating how to fix it
hopefully i can haha

Apparently I am led to believe this addon is single player only. Using this addon alone works just fine but on the other end this happens.

[Type to KILL - Kill enemies with words!] lua/autorun/sh_gmod_totd.lua:545: attempt to index a nil value
1. GenerateTextForHealth - lua/autorun/sh_gmod_totd.lua:545

Timer Failed! [Simple][@lua/autorun/sh_gmod_totd.lua (line 763)]




Only the host is able to type stuff. Which is very odd.

Edit: Neither of us had any addons.
