Newbie here, few questions

I am coming from 7 Days to die to play a more realistic game and i was wondering how all the scripts work as in giving a player a compass or map, I know a buddy of mine told me awhile ago you could give starter gear? 

Just wondering how i would go about that on this server as i have never used this host before.

Thanks!

Not to worry. Here is a link that I have going to show some basic starting gear edits that can be done within the files.

Right now with modding just coming out there isn't much out there yet but each day more is coming i have noticed.

Awesome currently checking out the link now, i was curious why we can only do 4 items? For example i wanted to do a map, compass and a few other items but goes over 4, is there a way to add more then 4 items? 

 

Thanks

The amount of items you can hold entirely depends on how much "space" each time takes up. So you can add more lines to add more gear, however if your character can only hold so much gear, the additional gear likely isn't being added into the inventory.

 

One way to get around that would be to add a backup to each characters starting gear.

 

This little bit of code should when added to your code give players a backpack on spawn! (I haven't actually tested this myself)

itemEnt = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory("AssaultBag_Green");
itemBs = ItemBase.Cast(itemEnt);

My friends asked me the same question this morning so quickly made a class and shared with them. You can check it out here:

• The script will allow you to be spawn with: an M4, a handgun, some stuff and a Hatchback
• Just open DefaultPlayerLoadout.c and make changes according to your needs
