How do I prevent people from dual wielding?

[slate hornet]

Im making a PVP game and I dont want people holding more than one weapon.
(Its paintball weapons by the way, not actual custom weapons.)

there is an event in the event reciever for a player picking something up. You could check when an item is picked up, and check if they are already holding something using - might be the wrong name - get equipped items; if they are already holding an item, unequip the one they just picked up

you'd need a delay between picking it up and dropping it, though, which can break

I have thought of a better method, but have not tested it: when a player picks up an item, give them a role that blocks them from picking up all items. When they drop an item, remove the role

(You can do that by editing the role, going to the restricting pick up section, and blocking all. Items already held don't get unequipped, I believe!)

use a get equipped objects

then an event recviver with update

and use an if is valid and if has tag twice for each hand

and give all the weapons a tag that you will put into the if has tag

[minor granite]

That uses more cpu than necessary

if doing it that way, you only need to check when an item is picked up

if fixes the problem of duel wielding still existing

from my experience it takes like 1/10-1/5 of an fps

[minor granite]

but it does it in a less efficient way

[rustic raven]

cool but fps is slightly less important than game breaking bugs

[minor granite]

this would use less chips and less cpu

and, in my opinion, would be a smoother user experience

[rustic raven]

cool but fps is slightly less important than game breaking bugs
most other things take multiple times more cpu this takes like 0.02%-0.05%

(depending on if you are holding something)

dont trust delays ever

[minor granite]

it wouldn't use a delay

it's just using the built in item restriction feature lol

functions better, less chips, less cpu

[slate hornet]

isaac his idea is just objectively better

since things such as holding a grenade and a gun would count as a dual wield with your idea

giving the weapons tags would just be better

@rustic raven how tf do I connect the and chip

[minor granite]

nope

the pickup restrictions has a tag feauture

[minor granite]

you only need the is valid output

[minor granite]

if you're using an and chip, I think you need to instead use has tag

as that will output a bool

[tawny raven]

• Player get Equipped items
• Dominant If is valid
Has tag (Your Tag)
• Off-Hand If is valid
Has tag (Your Tag)

• Both has tags to an And
• And to an if (on true) - unequip
