Team Base

[itHyperoX]

Hi, i'm working on a team base script, i'm stuck, i don't know why is the script is just doing something with the last created stuff in the TeamTable.

TeamTable = {
    {"Kings", 2048.7641601563, 1368.6136474609, 10.671875,    2045, 1368.6136474609, 10.671875, 0, 0, 0},
    {"WatoLocoos", 2066.482421875, 1369.6892089844, 10.671875, 2066, 1369.6892089844, 10.671875, 0, 0, 0},
    {"Police", 2060, 1369.6892089844, 10.671875, 2020, 1369.6892089844, 10.671875, 0, 0, 0}
}

counter = 0

addEventHandler("onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), function()
    for k, v in ipairs(TeamTable) do
        counter = counter + 1
        TableTeamName =     TeamTable[k][1]
        
        theGate = createObject(988, TeamTable[k][2], TeamTable[k][3], TeamTable[k][4],   TeamTable[k][8], TeamTable[k][9], TeamTable[k][10])
        teamMarker = createMarker(TeamTable[k][2], TeamTable[k][3], TeamTable[k][4] - 2, "cylinder", 5, 255, 0, 0, 150)
    end
    outputChatBox("found "..counter.." gate", root)
end)

 
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", root, function(player) 
    if (source == teamMarker and getElementType(player) == "player") then 
        outputChatBox("hit")
    
        local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam(player)
    
        if playerTeam then
            outputChatBox("team")
        
            local teamName = getTeamName(playerTeam)
            
            if teamName == TableTeamName then
                
                outputChatBox("yee")
            else

                outputChatBox("You are not in this team")            
            end
    
        else
            outputChatBox("not in team")        
        end    
    end 
end)

function getTeamDataFromName (name) 
	for i=1, #TeamTable do
		if TeamTable[i][1] == name then
			return TeamTable[i]
		end
	end
	return false
end

Usage:

local teamName = getTeamName(playerTeam)

if teamName then
	local teamData = getTeamDataFromName (teamName) -- returns the sub-table if successfull, else false.
	if teamData then
    	-- do your thing
	end
end

 

There are more ways to do this.

Because you keep overwriting the variables, if you have 5 gates, which gate do you think will open? Always the last one, since every time you go into the loop, a new value is assigned.

for k, v in ipairs(TeamTable) do
	counter = counter + 1
    TableTeamName = TeamTable[k][1]
    -- theGate and teamMarker are the variables being overwritten     
    theGate = createObject(988, TeamTable[k][2], TeamTable[k][3], TeamTable[k][4],   TeamTable[k][8], TeamTable[k][9], TeamTable[k][10])
    teamMarker = createMarker(TeamTable[k][2], TeamTable[k][3], TeamTable[k][4] - 2, "cylinder", 5, 255, 0, 0, 150)
end

Since you have multiple markers and gates, you should store them in a table.

local availableGates = {}


for k, v in ipairs(TeamTable) do
    counter = counter + 1
    local team = TeamTable[k][1]
    local theGate = createObject(988, TeamTable[k][2], TeamTable[k][3], TeamTable[k][4],   TeamTable[k][8], TeamTable[k][9], TeamTable[k][10])
	local teamMarker = createMarker(TeamTable[k][2], TeamTable[k][3], TeamTable[k][4] - 2, "cylinder", 5, 255, 0, 0, 150)
	table.insert(availableGates, {theGate, teamMarker, team})
end

function getTeamGateMarker( markerElement )
	for k, v in ipairs(availableGates) do
    	if(v[2] == markerElement) then
      		return v
     	end
    end
  	return false
end

addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", resourceRoot, function(player) 
    local gate = getTeamGateMarker(source)
    if (gate and getElementType(player) == "player") then     
        local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam(player)    
        if playerTeam then
            outputChatBox("team")        
            local teamName = getTeamName(playerTeam)            
            if teamName == gate[3] then                
                outputChatBox("yee")
            else
                outputChatBox("You are not in this team")            
            end    
        else
            outputChatBox("not in team")        
        end    
    end 
end) 

 

Try something like that, keep in mind I haven't touched MTA or LUA in ages..

Thank you, one more question. 

How can i move the gate ?

addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", resourceRoot, function(player) 
    local gate = getTeamGateMarker(source)
    if (gate and getElementType(player) == "player") then     
        local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam(player)    
        if playerTeam then
            outputChatBox("team")        
            local teamName = getTeamName(playerTeam)            
            if teamName == gate[3] then  
                
                moveObject ( theGate, 10000, TeamTable[k][4], TeamTable[k][5], TeamTable[k][6] )

            
                outputChatBox("yee")
            else
                outputChatBox("You are not in this team")            
            end    
        else
            outputChatBox("not in team")        
        end    
    end 
end)

I suggest u to use dutuchman moving gate resource resource  which is easy to use

Well, it depends how you want it to work. If you only want it to open then close after X amount of time, throw in two moveObjects, but you also have to think about the marker, what should happen if the gate is moving and somebody else (or the same guy) enters the marker again. You can put a "state" variable as the 4th argument of the table and when it opens/closes update it's state.
