player_activate

Description

Called when a player has entered the game (connected and loaded).
From this point you can use Player(userid) (serverside or in singleplayer)

This is called almost directly after GM:PlayerInitialSpawn in the same tick, so you could just use that hook serverside.
Just like GM:PlayerInitialSpawn, players may not have finished loading when its called. See the warning in GM:PlayerInitialSpawn for more details about possible issues

Members

number userid
The UserID of the Player.

Examples

Example

This is a basic template with the purpose of including all arguments / table variables to make it easily known which values can be accessed.

gameevent.Listen( "player_activate" ) hook.Add( "player_activate", "player_activate_example", function( data ) local id = data.userid // Same as Player:UserID() for the speaker // Called when a player is fully connected and loaded end )
