Yeah, I figured that out like 2 seconds ago. Also seems I needed to use CNetworkVarForDerived instead of IMPLEMENT_NETWORK_VAR_FOR_DERIVED in player.h. I tried modeling the code for m_iMental off of m_iHealth, but perhaps m_ArmorValue is better... because it's not inhereted from C_BaseEntity??? It's really too bad I have know idea what I'm doing. lol Thanks for all your help fellas. Still haven't got it compile yet, but making progress.
