    Some questions reguarding scripting....

    in Scripting

    Posted

    1) I wouldn't say Lua's syntax is very similar to C++.

    Lua:

    something = 1 
if something == 1 then 
    doSomething() 
else 
    doSomethingElse() 
end

    C++

    int something = 1; 
if (something == 1) { 
    doSomething(); 
} 
else { 
    doSomethingElse(); 
} 
 

    2) Server-side scripts are executed on the server while client-side scripts are downloaded for the client and executed locally. Some functions like GUI stuff can be used client-side only.

    3) You can use any script on any server as long as you have admin access to it.

    4) I'm not completely sure what you mean but you can't execute a script if you don't have admin access at the server.

    Edit: Dang, Ace_Gambit was faster ;P

    Also noticed this:

    function Money( hitElement, matchingDimension) 
    if ( getElementType ( hitElement ) == "player" ) then 
        timers[ source ] = setTimer( givePlayerMoney, 1000, 0, hitElement, 10 ) 
    end 
end

    Should be:

    function Money( hitElement, matchingDimension) 
    if ( getElementType ( hitElement ) == "player" ) then 
        timers[ hitElement ] = setTimer( givePlayerMoney, 1000, 0, hitElement, 10 ) 
    end 
end

    And read what 50p said. Why use a ColShape at all?

    Read: http://development.mtasa.com/index.php? ... ShapeLeave

    function money_stop () 
    killTimer( timers[ source ] ) 
end

    You are killing the timer for ColShape not the player which is wrong. It should look like this:

    function money_stop (leaveElement, matchingDimension) 
    if ( getElementType ( leaveElement ) == "player" ) then  -- not really needed. just to prevent killing non-existing timers 
        killTimer( timers[ leaveElement ] ) 
    end 
end

    well i couldn't find a function that is called giveMoney http://development.mtasa.com/index.php?search=giveMoney&fulltext=Search

    and i always used this and it works fine http://development.mtasa.com/index.php?title=GivePlayerMoney

    hm... and for the marker you're right the hitElement is the marker i have never checked it but someone here in this thread said that hitElement is the player^^

    That's because he's using onColShapeHit event not OnPlayerMarkerHit ;)

    You can only give money to players. Maybe there's another element in that sphere. Try this:

    function Money( hitElement, matchingDimension) 
    if ( getElementType ( hitElement ) == "player" ) then 
        timer = setTimer( givePlayerMoney, 1000, 0, hitElement, 10 ) 
    end 
end

    Attaching Guns to Vehicles?

    Why the hell do you have 2x "end" in the function? And the variable "localvehicle" in "setElementAlpha ( localvehicle, tonumber ( level ))" isn't even defined....

    Are you sure you've coded before? :) I seriously doubt you would forget basic stuff as syntax ...

    onClientChangeNick

    in Scripting

    Posted

    Parameters for functions are:

    - oldnick

    - newnick

    and source returned is the player who changed his nick.

    This is not a function! This is an Event! The way function works is different to the way event works. Function gets attached to event.

    With onClientChangeNick(source, oldnick, newnick), I wanted to show which parameters are used by "onClientChangeNick" event. I didn't say you should call function onClientChangeNick ;)

    Uhm you wont spawn just by making a map. You'll have to code a script that reads data from your map file ...

    Here's a nice example:

      
<map> 
  
    <spawnpoint id="spawnpoint1" posX="1959.5487060547" posY="-1714.4613037109" posZ="877.25219726563" rot="63.350006103516" model="0"/> 
    <pickup id="Armor 1" posX="1911.083984375" posY="-1658.8798828125" posZ="885.40216064453" type="armor" health="50" respawn="60000"/> 
    <flag posX="1959.5487060547" posY="-1714.4613037109" posZ="877.25219726563" team="blue" /> 
    ... 
</map> 
  


      
local flagElements = getElementsByType ( "flag" ) 
-- loop through them 
for key, value in pairs(flagElements) do 
        -- get our info 
        local posX = getElementData ( value, "posX" ) 
        local posY = getElementData ( value, "posY" ) 
        local posZ = getElementData ( value, "posZ" ) 
        local team = getElementData ( value, "team" ) 
        -- create an object according to the flag position 
        createObject ( 1337, posX, posY, posZ ) 
        -- output the team that we created a base for 
        outputChatBox ( "Base for team " .. team .. " created" ) 
end 
 

    [REQ] : /setwritecollor - command

    function setPlayerTextColor(source, commandName, playerName, colR, colG, colB) 
    player = getPlayerFromNick(playerName) 
    setElementData(player, "colR", colR) 
    setElementData(player, "colG", colG) 
    setElementData(player, "colB", colB) 
end 
  
function onPlayerChat(message, messageType) 
    if messageType == 0 then 
        local playerName = getClientName(source) 
        local colR = getElementData(source, "colR") 
        local colG = getElementData(source, "colG") 
        local colB = getElementData(source, "colB") 
        outputChatBox(playerName .. ": " .. message, getRootElement(), colR, colG, colB) 
        cancelEvent() 
    end 
end 
  
function setData() 
    players = getElementsByType("player") 
    setElementData(players, "colR", 0) 
    setElementData(players, "colG", 0) 
    setElementData(players, "colB", 0) 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onPlayerChat", getRootElement(), onPlayerChat) 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), setData) 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", getRootElement(), setData) 
  
addCommandHandler("setwritecollor", setPlayerTextColor)

    Something like that should work. Didn't test though. The command is /setwritecollor playerName r b g

    F11 Map, scriptable?

    Read this: http://development.mtasa.com/index.php? ... entHandler

    You forgot one parameter in addEventHandler. Also make sure you use this client side since "onClientResourceStart" is a client-side event.

      
function keybind () 
    bindKey ( "r", "down", clientToggleGui ) 
end 
addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), keybind ) 
 

    And btw, the client-side script doesn't need the source element. And type debugscript 3 in the console. It'll show all errors in your script
