My god dude.

  • Your writing style is very far off from the wiki's standards. "we want to make it pickup stuff right well we want to make a weapon and some ammo so it can shoot" Seriously? Look at any other page on this website. If you can't be bothered capitalize correctly and not act like you're having some rambling one-sided conversation with the reader, just quit making these pages. And don't indent for no reason?
  • You didn't clearly define what an "SNPC" is, you just said it's an NPC but smarter and left the reader to connect the dots.
  • NPCs in Half-Life 2 do not need ammo to fire their guns. This is why they don't run out of ammo.
  • NPCs in Half-Life 2 do not move to pick up ammo. You've provided nothing here that would make them move to a pickup.
  • A citizen becoming an ammo resupplier for only 30 seconds does not make any sense from a design, balancing, or even physical standpoint. Resuppliers don't have any distinctive indication that they are resuppliers. Players don't even realize that resupplying exists as a role citizens can take on, so anyone who hypothetically saw an ammo box simply disappear would believe they were just cheated out of ammo (which is an accurate statement, even if they did receive ammo from the citizen). Lastly, ammo does not just disappear after 30 seconds.
  • Citizens already do pick up weapons off the ground, and it doesn't require a prop or second NPC. You didn't even explain how the second NPC would manage to have a weapon in its hands which was just deleted. You also failed to mention how to make the gun actually look like it's in the prop's hands as it picks up the gun.

Again, stop making these pages if you don't even have basic knowledge on their subjects. Needless to say, I'm putting this up for deletion for being low quality. Seriously consider the quality of your contributions, cause every page you've made so far has been put up for deletion for being unnecessary or low quality.
