Okay thanks, for the reply.

I'm working with the pedastrions resource and i want to make two modifications. One. The citizens spawn when the script starts . But can't do cuz' they spawn where you entered the command.. Don't know Two: Want to set their health but did not found the script citizens.lua addCommandHandler("citizen", function(thePlayer, command, gender, skin) local x, y, z = getElementPosition(thePlayer) local int = getElementInterior(thePlayer) local ped if gender and skin then if gender == "male" or gender == "female" then ped = createPed(skin, x, y, z) if isElement(ped) == false then outputChatBox("Can't spawn a ped with this skin (an invalid skin)", thePlayer, 255, 0, 0) else setElementInterior(ped, int) setElementData(ped, "Gender", gender) setElementData(ped, "type", "Citizen") end else outputChatBox("Valid genders are female and male", thePlayer, 255, 0, 0) end elseif gender and not skin then if gender == "female" or gender == "male" then if gender == "male" then ped = createPed(7, x, y, z) setElementInterior(ped, int) setElementData(ped, "Gender", gender) setElementData(ped, "type", "Citizen") elseif gender == "female" then ped = createPed(226, x, y, z) setElementInterior(ped, int) setElementData(ped, "Gender", gender) setElementData(ped, "type", "Citizen") end else outputChatBox("Valid genders are female and male", thePlayer, 255, 0, 0) end else if math.random(0, 1) == 0 then ped = createPed(226, x, y, z) setElementInterior(ped, int) setElementData(ped, "Gender", "female") setElementData(ped, "type", "Citizen") else ped = createPed(7, x, y, z) setElementInterior(ped, int) setElementData(ped, "Gender", "male") setElementData(ped, "type", "Citizen") end end end ) addCommandHandler("despeds", function() for i, v in ipairs(getElementsByType("ped")) do destroyElement(v) end end ) addCommandHandler("onClientResourceStart", function(thePlayer, command) local x, y, z = getElementPosition(thePlayer) local int = getElementInterior(thePlayer) for i = 0, 200 do if math.random(0, 1) == 0 then local ped = createPed(226, x, y, z) setElementInterior(ped, int) setElementData(ped, "Gender", "female") setElementData(ped, "type", "Citizen") else local ped = createPed(7, x, y, z) setElementInterior(ped, int) setElementData(ped, "Gender", "male") setElementData(ped, "type", "Citizen") end end end ) local lastX = {} local lastY = {} local lastZ = {} local lastHealth = {} setTimer( function() for i, peds in ipairs(getElementsByType("ped")) do if getElementData(peds, "type") == "Citizen" then if getElementHealth(peds) > 0 then if getElementData(peds, "Gender") == "female" then if getElementData(peds, "Panic") == true then setPedAnimation(peds, "ped", "woman_runpanic") else setPedAnimation(peds, "ped", "woman_walksexy") end else if getElementData(peds, "Panic") == true then setPedAnimation(peds, "ped", "sprint_civi") else setPedAnimation(peds, "ped", "walk_gang1") end end end if getElementHealth(peds) > 0 and getElementData(peds, "Rotating") == false and isPedDead(peds) == false then if lastX[peds] == nil then local x, y, z = getElementPosition(peds) lastX[peds] = x lastY[peds] = y lastZ[peds] = z lastHealth[peds] = getElementHealth(peds) end local x, y, z = getElementPosition(peds) if lastHealth[peds] > getElementHealth(peds) then lastHealth[peds] = getElementHealth(peds) setElementData(peds, "Panic", true) setTimer( function() if isElement(peds) then setElementData(peds, "Panic", false) end end , 30000, 1) end local g = 0.5 if getElementData(peds, "Panic") == true then g = 0.25 end if getDistanceBetweenPoints3D(x, y, z, lastX[peds], lastY[peds], lastZ[peds]) < g then local success = false local rot = getPedRotation(peds) setElementData(peds, "Rotating", true) local module = "positive" local executed = 0 local rand = math.random(0, 1) if rand == 0 then module = "negative" end setTimer( function() if isElement(peds) == false then return end executed = executed + 1 local rot = getPedRotation(peds) if module == "positive" then setPedRotation(peds, rot + math.random(5, 10)) else setPedRotation(peds, rot -

local x = 1 -- it's local variable. (This variable exists only within this file.) So the global variable exists in another files if i create them here? Where else? If i create this one i can use x without setting the value in an other file? Just type x in the other file and it will know that is 1? OFF QUESTION: I can use the mulitple assigment here: x, y = 1, 2 print(x,y) But i can't use here. It's not possible? t = {a, b = 1, 4} print(t.a, t.b)

I see. And the other statements are true anyway? EDIT: Two hours ago i would not have any idea what are you talking about. Now i just understand. It seems i started to learn

I'm just a newcomer, and i'm watching many tutorials on lua.org but i don't understand one thing so far. if it's a local variable: local x = 1 end --this is the end of the variable local x = 2 -- so from now the x is 2? Then where is the end of the global variable? If there is no end of it, how to "destroy it" x = 1 -- how to destroy this? Thanks for any help Nick

Thanks i missed this link. Will check it out now.

I'll never learn this. No way. Browsing the wiki but can't figure it out. No problem i won't give up. Thanks.

There we are. I started it. I want that if the resource starts everyone got a target. You have one target, and this can't be yourself. Then if everyone has a target, and a new player joins he got a target. It doesn't matter that he has the same target that somebody else, but want to limit this number. So 3 men could have the same target. And when somebody kills his target he gots the recently joined new player as a target. I'm stepping into a big task, but i belive that i can make it with help. I like to start things in the middle. So i started learning lua from here. I have this so far: Meta.xml "--" version="1.0" type="script" description="Target system"/> target.lua addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", resourceRoot, function () for index, player in pairs(getElementsByType("player")) do while true do local randomTarget = getRandomPlayer ( ) if randomTarget ~= player then outputChatBox ("Your target is: " ..getPlayerName ( randomTarget ), player ) break end end end end ) ) Stuck at the beggining. Any tips? EDIT: So far made by Alpha

It doesn't work. I have a newskin folder in resources in there are one tex foler. It's coontaining the 287.txt and 287.dff And there are two files that you've posted. And if i load it and enter doesn't change it.

Good Xeno thanks.

Got it! Thanks.

I'll try it tomorrow, thank you so much you helped me a lot. I'll post it in here if you don't mind (if it won't work)

Thanks i have this one too.

Thank you Solidsnake14, it seems, your are my guardian.

In my head i was dreaming about that: You have a target to KILL, and you are a target too. So someone has to kill you too.

And can you tell me where are those files?

Just one more thing: addEventHandler ( "onPedWasted", root, function ( _, killer ) setElementHealth ( killer, -50 ) -- It not works outputChatBox ( "Just in the middle", killer, 255, 0, 0 ) end ) In clientside it should be working i think. How can i just decrease hp?

Oh I see. I'm searching for those files that the user's data are in. Where the server knows, if that user is already exists, so it can log you in.

Yes about that.

Thanks you for the explaining. Not easy for me.

Correct me if i'm wrong: The onClientPedWasted is client side, but the OnPedWasted is server sided? And i can't set the player's health in the client just in the server side? I think i'm starting to understand this.

It works thank you so much everyone. But i have an other question: What makes it's serverside? What is the difference between this and above the last script?

I mean: It works when i kill a player, i die. But when i kill a ped, an npc(don't know what the difference is) it not works. I'm trying this on the citizens resource:https://community.multitheftauto.com/index.php?p=resources&s=details&id=3390

It's working with a player, but not on the NPC. Can i use it on NPC?

Thanks. One more thing. In this: function PedWasted(player) --The player definition goes here i think setElementHealth ( killer, 0 ) outputChatBox( "Just in the middle", player, 255, 0, 0 ) end addEventHandler("onClientPedWasted", getRootElement(), PedWasted) But how to define killer in this one? Thank you for helping a beginner EDIT:These are for only player or NPC's too? Cuz' not working. I'm doing something wrong function PedDamage(player) outputChatBox("Just in the middle", player, 255, 0, 0) end addEventHandler("onClientPedDamage", getRootElement(), PedDamage)
