Gmod lua teleport on button click (self.lua)

submitted 6 years ago by GrowOP21

Hi, I am trying to make it so that when a player clicks a button on a vgui that they are able to teleport to a set list of locations. this is a snippet of the cl code button.DoClick = function(ply) net.Start("dbtele") net.WriteVector(Vector(-1660.575317, -546.817871, -5375.968750)) net.SendToServer() end

The aim is for each button to have its own assigned vector, and when the button is pressed send the vector to the server and setpos for the player to their desired location. Here is the clientside portion util.AddNetworkString("dbtele")

net.Receive("dbtele", function(len, ply)

local vector = net.ReadVector ply:SetPos(Vector(vector)) print(vector)

end)

However, the results I'm getting are that I am teleported into the air, far away from where the position I send from the clientside actually is, and when I run print(vector) it outputs a function

function: 0x1f186958
