This step shows how to assign a weapon to a player at the start of the game.

When a player spawns for the first time, grant them the first weapon in the WeaponGranters array. To do this, you’ll need to subscribe functions to each player spawn pad. See the Coding Device Interactions page for more details on subscribable events.

Follow these steps to subscribe to player spawn events and to assign their first weapon.

1. Add a new method OnPlayerSpawn() to the team_elimination_game class. This method makes sure that you assign the player the right weapon when they spawn for the first time, and when they respawn.

   
   
   |  | OnPlayerSpawn(InPlayer : agent) : void = |
   | --- | --- |
   |  | Print("A Player just spawned!") |

2. To subscribe the functions you just set up to their associated events, you need to add new code to OnBegin(). Create a for loop to subscribe to each player spawner’s SpawnedEvent using OnPlayerSpawn.
