Right guys, Wondering how to to link MTA SA with Mysql, now this may be stupid if someone has already posted a topic about it could you link me to it?. What i mean is, in big scripts such as Valhalla, Vedic etc. , they have a folder named Mysql, but how do they get it, i can set up a big script, but it is no use setting it up if you don't understand any of it,, How do you link MTA:SA with Mysql and Sqlite etc,? Please forgive if this makes me look stupid in some way, or if the question is stupid, but hey, we all need to learn!! Thanks again, Lloyd

Optimised?

No i didn't, a guy made them for me, but i now realise he isn't very clever, any suggestions?

Nothing for lazyquery, but do I check anywhere else

So add it in under getmysqlport?

"King Roleplay" type="script" description="MySQL"/>

Nope There is nothing there?

Explain More to me?

[2012-07-20 23:21:46] ERROR: call: failed to call 'mysql:lazyQuery' [string "?"] Is the Error I am getting whilst trying to add a new gate, please help... Thanks in advance, Lloyd

You can simply use if not var then Thanks Alot

Thanks

Right Guys, i tried to create a resource to set a players hp, could you tell me whats wrong, lol the console says it could even find the resource, here is the serverside function setElementHealth ( sourcePlayer, command, targetPlayerName) --look up the player whos health has to be set local targetPlayer = getPlayerFromName ( targetPlayerName ) --if there is a player with such name subtract tonumber from their health, if targetPlayer then setElementHealth ( getElementID, getElementHealth, - ( tonumber(setElementHealth) ) --check if the players health returned "false" if (setElementHealth == false) then -- if so, output a message to the chatbox, but only to this player. outputChatBox ("Failed to set players hp." ,thePlayer) end end addCommandHandler("sethp", setElementHealth) here is the meta "llsd" type="script" name="hpslap" description="set hp" /> Could you correct me in with any errors thanks lloyd

So, when the server is up on the browser, the default mode is play, but when i put in a custom resource and start it the gamemode changes to the name of the resource!

Why when i put a new resource in my server does the servers type change to the name of the resource? Thanks Lloyd

Thanks SS14 Any Ideas on Simple Scripting, Thanks Lloyd

Hi Guys, Was just wondering how to view your Co-ordinates in game as it is really irritating me now? And another thing, could someone give me a small list some good things a beginner scripter can... well script, so far I have done Simple Login/Register and a Teleporter, some other simple, but useful things would be appreciated, Thanks Lloyd

Thank you, Though I do not want money through being a scripter doesn't mean i am not good at it, I have been scripting for 4 years and have a full time job, i have previously scripted for Revolution Roleplay and Trollin' Roleplay. I do have a lot of experience in roleplay servers so do hesitate to contact me. Thanks Lloyd Logan
