F.A.Q

Q: I can't pick up any weapons! Turn off rp_license in the admin menu, or ask a chief or the mayor for a license.

Q: People keep talking about this "SVN", saying you can update in a couple of clicks. How do I get it? First, download and install TortoiseSVN, then check out this tutorial.

Q: I found a bug in DarkRP. What can I do to get it fixed? First of all you should post at www.facepunch.com. Then, you should also submit a bug report in the issues section of the DarkRP svn.

Q: Guns and money float in mid-air. Make sure you have Counter-Strike Source content installed, and you have a directory tree such as, server/orangebox/garrysmod/* server/orangebox/cstrike/*

Q: I downloaded DarkRP from garrysmod.org and... Please use the latest SVN Revision of DarkRP, there is a good chance that your problem would have been resolved in the most recent update.

Q: How to add a class to a "CP and Mayor Only door". Update! You can now easily make a "group" door at the bottom of shared.lua. Look at the default one to know how to.

Q: How do I extend the change job timer. Please note that this was put in for security by Falco to prevent malicious scripts from spamming that function. Open up gamemode/player.lua, and find;

 
if self.LastJob and 120 - (CurTime() - self.LastJob) >= 0 then  
         Notify(self, 1, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.have_to_wait,  math.ceil(120 - (CurTime() - self.LastJob)), "/job"))  
         return   
end  
 

Change both 120's to whatever time you want.

Q: How do I get my team name?

 
local plr = self.Owner --meant to go into a swep, sent, or stool
chat.AddText(plr, Color(100,255,100), "'s class is: " .. tostring( plr:Team() ) )
// Note, this will loop continuously.
// Also, self.Owner:Team() will output something along the lines of:
// 1, 2, 3, etc. This corresponds to the order of the jobs in shared.lua
 

This should output: "Cereal Killer's class is: 3" (Your name will appear instead of 'Cereal Killer'.)
