you want to count from 3 to 1 as example

then if the count up kill player?

if u want that u will use

OnPlayerSpawn

and

SetTimer

using number more than spawn time

and for the count number

and the Main Event

OnPlayerWasted

that you will work in it

[bencskrisz]

Can you do a quick example in script? Im not lazy or anything to do it cause if I would be able to do, I would do it on my own but I just started to deal with this scripting only from yesterday.

[salh]

you want when player die create timer for like 5s when 5s end respawn player?

[bencskrisz]

No no, I want a countdown (for example counting from 10 minutes) and if its up, then player dies. After respawning the timer restarts from 10 min. Is it possible?

[salh]

all player die?

[bencskrisz]

Yes, exactly!

[salh]

players = getElementsByType ( "player" )
for playerKey, playerValue in ipairs(players) do
	setTimer ( function()
			killPlayer(playerValue)
	end, 10000, 0 )
end

this code for 10s

you can change the time

I tried it and it indeed killed me first after 10 sec (as I set it to 10) but after that it respawned me only in the blueberry farm after everry 10 sec..

WARNING: Time\time.lua:7: Bad argument @ 'killPed' [Expected element at argument 1, got table]

As it said I needed to change killPlayer to killPed

AFter that I got that warning

[salh]

you want change spawn place?

[bencskrisz]

No no. I dont want it to change spawn place. 

[salh]

the code is runing what the problem

use the code

players = getElementsByType ( "player" )
for playerKey, playerValue in ipairs(players) do
	setTimer ( function()
			killPlayer(playerValue)
	end, 10000, 0 )
end

 

oh the debug

use this

players = getElementsByType ( "player" )
for playerKey, playerValue in ipairs(players) do
	setTimer ( function()
			killPed ( playerValue, playerValue )
	end, 10000, 0 )
end

 

the code is serverside not Clientside

[bencskrisz]

Now its not working at all....

ERROR: Loading script failed: Time\time.lua:6: unexpected symbol near '10000'

oh sorry, its working now  

And can you make it visible, I mean the counter? That"d be awesome!!

[salh]

Countdown Text?

[bencskrisz]

Yes yes,, Something like this: Timeleft: *the time*

[salh]

function GuiSetTextCountDown ( guiElement , Text, count ) 
         if not guiElement or not Text or not count then 
        outputDebugString("Bad arugment @ GuiSetTextCountDown ",0,255,0,0) 
       return end 
        guiSetText ( guiElement ,Text..' '..tonumber( count ) ) 
        setTimer( 
            function ( ) 
            if not tonumber ( count ) then return false end 
                count = count -1 
            guiSetText ( guiElement ,Text..' '..tonumber( count ) ) 
        end , 1000 , count  ) 
end 

times = guiCreateLabel(4, 255, 250, 53, "", false)  
GuiSetTextCountDown(times, "Timer", 10)
 

this is Client Side

[bencskrisz]

Thank you so much! It appears and counts but doesnt restart after respawning. It remains 0     

[salh]

this is Useful Functions

player make this code not me i can't edit make it restart the timer

[bencskrisz]

But you cant do the same what you did at the killing function? There you made it to restart the counter. Same or similar script for visible countdown is not possible?

[salh]

the timer function  1s = -1 

10 - 1 = 9 

every second -1

but killing function every 10 second kill Players

[bencskrisz]

Oh okay. Thank you so much for your help! For last thing, can u tell me how to change the colour of the visible counter? Cause I wrote the color code before the "Timer" but it just made only appear the color code too and didnt change its colour

[salh]

if the timer end the visible = false?

[bencskrisz]

Nah, im talking about the changing of colour of the counter. Not the visibility

[salh]

>

guiLabelSetColor(times, 255, 0, 0) -- 255,0,0 the code color

 

Add this under

times = guiCreateLabel(4, 255, 250, 53, "", false)  
--here
GuiSetTextCountDown(times, "Timer", 10)
