List close players name on guigridlist

[NickScripter]

Hello!! I'm having a little trouble showing the names of the near players on the weapon sales list. I am trying to do it this way:

 

function putPlayers()
	guiGridListClear(players_grid)	

    if (source and isElement(source) and getElementType(source) == "player") and localPlayer ~= source then 
        local sX, sY, sZ = getElementPosition(localPlayer) 
        local rX, rY, rZ = getElementPosition(source) 
        local distance = getDistanceBetweenPoints3D(sX, sY, sZ, rX, rY, rZ) 
        if distance <= range then
			for _,player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do	
				local row = guiGridListAddRow(players_grid)
				guiGridListSetItemText(players_grid,row,1,getPlayerName(source),false,false)  
			end
        else 
            guiGridListClear(players_grid) 
        end 
    end  
end

I have no idea how i can do it XD

end

local players = getElementsByType("player") -- get all players
for i = 1, #players do -- use int loop, no need for ipairs unless you need sorting, it's better for performance.
	local player = players[i] -- get player
	if player then
		local player_name = getPlayerName(player)
		local row = guiGridListAddRow(players_grid)
		guiGridListSetItemText(players_grid, row, 1, player_name, false, false)
	end
end

Adjust it to your code, i doubt that you've checked debugscript 3 for errors/warnings.

I want to show on the list only the close ranged players, not everyone

That's why i noticed you about that:

Adjust it to your code

You should do it by yourself, if something will not work let me know.

Okey. I will try to help you a bit with it.
First of all, this is function called only on client or it's function from event handler?
I'm wondering because you used source. Provide me more information so i could help you.

Okay... It is a client only that through this function identifies nearby players and lists them.

Should work, untested.

function putPlayers()
	guiGridListClear(players_grid)

	-- i've deleted conditions which didn't make any sense...

	local players = getElementsByType("player") -- get all players
	for i = 1, #players do -- use int loop, no need for ipairs unless you need sorting, it's better for performance.
		local player = players[i] -- get player
		if player and player ~= getLocalPlayer() then -- remove player ~= getLocalPlayer() if you want to count yourself
			local x, y, z = getElementPosition(getLocalPlayer()) -- get position of local player
			local posX, posY, posZ = getElementPosition(player) -- get position of another player
			local distance = getDistanceBetweenPoints3D(x, y, z, posX, posY, posZ)
			if distance <= 30 then -- range
				local player_name = getPlayerName(player)
				local row = guiGridListAddRow(players_grid)
				guiGridListSetItemText(players_grid, row, 1, player_name, false, false)
			end
		end
	end
end
