SetElementData/GetElementData

[fairyoggy]

--client
function HudOpening ()
local meatn = getElementData(localPlayer, "meat") or 0
    dxDrawText("Meat: "..math.floor(meatn).." ед", 1800*x, 750*y, 1670*x, 25*y, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 2, "Arial", "center", "center", false, false, true, true, false)
end
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,HudOpening)

function initGUI( )
    btnOutput = DGS:dgsCreateButton( 0.7, 0.1, 0.2, 0.1, "+", true )
    addEventHandler ( "onDgsMouseClick", btnOutput, outputEditBox )
end
addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement( getThisResource( ) ), initGUI )

function outputEditBox ( button, state )
    if button == "left" and state == "down" then
    triggerServerEvent( "m9cko", getLocalPlayer(), 0, 24, 35 )
    end
end

--server
function hhh ()
takePlayerMoney(client,2)
setElementData(client, "meat", (getElementData(client, "meat") or 0) + 10)
end
addEvent("m9cko",true)
addEventHandler("m9cko",getRootElement(),hhh)

ElementData = meatn 

When I press the button, it is added +10 (meat) for localplayer

Everything works as it should, but how do I bind to some object or marker, or create a separate variable for this ElementData(not localPlayer)

local meatn = getElementData(localPlayer, "meat") or 0

I mean Instead "localplayer" Create a variable instead or bind to an object. How to do it?

--client

local meatn = getElementData(localPlayer, "meat") or 0

--server
setElementData(client, "meat", (getElementData(client, "meat") or 0) + 10)

I just need instead "localPlayer", "client" create a variable that is not bound to the Localplayer.

You can use also:

root -- attach to the mother element of all elements

resourceRoot -- attached to the resource which it is currently executed in

local newElement = createElement("elementName") -- attach to a new element of your choice

local meatn = getElementData(localPlayer, "meat") or 0 -- old
local meatn = getElementData(elementName, "meat") or 0 -- new

--
setElementData(client, "meat", (getElementData(client, "meat") or 0) + 10) -- old with localplayer
setElementData(elementName, "meat", (getElementData(elementName, "meat") or 0) + 10) -- new

And how to use it correctly?

Use newElement, that is a variable.

not elementName which is just a "string". Or in this case an empty variable.

I do not understand how I use it to work like for Locaplayer but now for new variable.

Basically:
 

--Client

local newElement = createMarker(0,0,0,"cylinder",1,255,255,255,255)

if ( newElement ) then
    setElementData(newElement, "meat", (getElementData(newElement, "meat") or 0) + 10)
end

As long as this is client-sided it should work as intended.

Did as you wrote, and used for display number

dxDrawText("Мясо: "..math.floor(meatnz).." ед", 1800*x, 750*y, 1670*x, 25*y, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 2, "Arial", "center", "center", false, false, true, true, false)

newElement = createPickup (1322.2575683594,358.23822021484,19.5546875, 3, 2663, 1, 1 )

function HudOpening ()
local meatn = getElementData(localPlayer, "meat") or 0
local meatnz = getElementData(newElement, "meat") or 0
    dxDrawText("Мясо: "..math.floor(meatnz).." ед", 1800*x, 750*y, 1670*x, 25*y, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 2, "Arial", "center", "center", false, false, true, true, false)
end
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,HudOpening)

local player = getLocalPlayer()
function initGUI( )
--showCursor(true)
    btnOutput = DGS:dgsCreateButton( 0.7, 0.1, 0.2, 0.1, "+", true )
    addEventHandler ( "onDgsMouseClick", btnOutput, outputEditBox )
end
addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement( getThisResource( ) ), initGUI )

function outputEditBox ( button, state)
    if button == "left" and state == "down" then
	if (newElement) then
	setElementData(newElement, "meat", (getElementData(newElement, "meat") or 0) + 10)
    --triggerServerEvent( "m9cko", root,  0, 24, 35 )	
    end
	end
end

Not working, what am I doing wrong or again I do not understand

It works as intended for localplayer and used in server part:

function hhh ()
takePlayerMoney(client,2)
setElementData(client, "meat", (getElementData(client, "meat") or 0) + 10)
end
addEvent("m9cko",true)
addEventHandler("m9cko",root,hhh)

UPDATE: SOLVED.

Your example helped me a lot. Did everything as intended.

Thank you all very much for the answers.

Another question, how to make the numbers saved? On the local player, they are saved after restarting the script, but on "NewElement" not save

How to save these numbers for variable "NewElement" or create xml file and to keep these numbers there, and then read. The main thing to do is save, the method is not important

[fairyoggy]

and how to make it work on the server side? Ie other players do not see the change in these numbers

[justn]

1- For data saving on objects I'd suggest using SQLite(or MySQL) 
2- You could use tables.
