Can't switch weapons in ZS?
« on: May 24, 2011, 05:58:37 PM »

I was in ZS a few moments ago. The 1 2 and 3 options for weapons are there, but it doesn't list a held weapon and I cannot switch between weapons, even after earning them. To switch, I have to drop all of my weapons until my desired weapon is held, then pick everything back up. Due to this, I have been "robbed" several times by users taking the weapons I dropped.

Is there a fix for this? Restarting Gmod was not effective.

its a bug, when you don't have any ammo for the gun you can't switch to it.

I am aware of this bug. This is not the same case. When starting out, with my melee and handgun, I cannot switch at all. And after earning any weapon with kills, I cannot switch to it without my dropping method. What's also odd, though not a nuisance, is a possible circumventing of that bug. I picked up another player's Carpenter Hammer and it had 7 nails in it. Then I found an SMG with a full clip.

I played this way for 3 maps before calling it quits.

This was with the latest Garry's mod update.. which as you may have noticed broke more than a few visual things as well.

I believe to do with this commit

I believe mouse wheel works? But not everyone has those..

Every time you download Garry's Mod illegally, Garry makes a bug.

When people ask me "Plz" because its shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because its shorter than "Yes".
