I think that his { is in the wrong place:

Plaintext

 give_ammo();
   {
   while(1)

Should be:

Plaintext

 give_ammo();
   while(1)
   {

or he put what you said inside another function? and all this should be moved and fixed. None of this appears to belong here.

Oh, lol. It's actually inside the main() function i didn't even notice..

So yeh, remove that one ; and move the new function to outside of the main() (or any other) function

there's allready a call from the triggers a bit above, so it looks like this should be a new function all together:

   level.give_ammo = 0;

first enable 'developer 1' in the console, and then load with 'devmap mapname'. Then it should give a better explanation

I forgot an opening bracket after the while() loop, the continue statement needs to be inside a loop, and the game does not recognise the loop. I allready changed the code in my post above, but i guess you copied it before that.

Use this function and it should work:

give_ammo()
{
   while(1)

      who = undefined;
      cost  = 1500;

      string = "Press &&1 to buy ammo [Cost: " + cost + "]";

      self sethintstring( string );

      if( maxammo <= ammocount - clipcount )
      {
         wait 0.05;
         continue;
      }

      if ( weapon != "fraggrenade" && weapon!= "stielhandgranate" && weapon != "molotov" && weapon != "mine_bouncing_betty" && weapon != "mortar_round" && weapon != "satchel_charge_new")

         }
         else
         {
            level.give_ammo = 0;

Try replacing "continue;" with a "return;"

You should copy blunts function and replace yours. Your also missing another end bracket at the end of your function that you posted.

He does not want to return. That will leave the function, which is not thread again.

He also had the function itself inside another function rather than the "call" to the function
