GM:PlayerInitialSpawn
Description
Called when the player spawns for the first time.
See GM:PlayerSpawn for a hook called every player spawn.
This hook is called before the player has fully loaded, when the player is still in seeing the "Starting Lua" screen. For example, trying to use the Entity:GetModel function will return the default model ("player/default.mdl")
Due to the above note, sending net messages to the spawned player in this hook is highly unreliable, and they most likely won't be received. See https://github.com/Facepunch/garrysmod-requests/issues/718.
Current dirty hack is:
Arguments
Example
Prints the name of the player joining.
function GM:PlayerInitialSpawn(ply)
print( ply:GetName().." joined the server.\n" )
end
-- That way you are overriding the default hook
-- you can use hook.Add to make more functions get called when this event occurs
local function spawn(ply)
print( ply:GetName().." joined the game.\n")
end
hook.Add( "PlayerInitialSpawn", "some_unique_name", spawn )
Output: Player1 joined the game
