Oh yeah, from this example...

Code:

function ona_trigger:OnTrigger( trigger_entity )
	if IsPlayer( trigger_entity ) then
		local player = CastToPlayer( trigger_entity )
		if player:HasItem("ona_party_rock") then
			BroadCastMessageToPlayer( player, "O&A PARTY ROCK!" )
		end
	end
end

You're right, Nezumi, your example line wouldn't work. That specific line would work if it was done like this, though...

Code:

trigger_entity = CastToPlayer( trigger_entity )
if trigger_entity:HasItem("ona_party_rock") then

But really, you'd probably want to leave trigger_entity alone and just make a new shit instead, which is what "player" is for...

Code:

local player = CastToPlayer( trigger_entity )
if player:HasItem("ona_party_rock") then

That makes sense.
