Hey, I'm having an issue where I would like the player to know which ammo they are picking up instead of just "collected ammo" this is my script which I basically used the default ammo script. Could anybody tell me what's wrong with my code because I can't get it to work at all?
Thanks for your help !

+ Code Snippet

 
function ammo_init(e,name)
	ammo_name[e] = name
end

function ammo_main(e)
 PlayerDist = GetPlayerDistance(e)
 if PlayerDist < 40 and g_PlayerHealth > 0 and g_PlayerThirdPerson==0 then
   Prompt("Collected "ammo_name[e]" ammo")
   PlaySound(e,0)
   AddPlayerAmmo(e)
   Destroy(e)
   ActivateIfUsed(e)
 end
end

This should work.

ammo_name = {} - was not declared
function ammo_init_name(e,name) - was wrong _name missing
added double dots into the string field around the variable - ..ammo_name[e]..
added PromptDuration(text,v) so you get a chance to read the text after it is picked up. 2000 = 2 seconds, edit this to suit

+ Code Snippet


  	ammo_name = {}

function ammo_init_name(e,name)

    ammo_name[e] = name
	
end
 
function ammo_main(e)

	PlayerDist = GetPlayerDistance(e)
	if PlayerDist < 40 and g_PlayerHealth > 0 and g_PlayerThirdPerson == 0 then
		PromptDuration("Collected "..ammo_name[e].." ammo", 2000)
		PlaySound(e,0)
		AddPlayerAmmo(e)
		Destroy(e)
		ActivateIfUsed(e)
	end
 
end
