onMarkerHit not working

[hackermagus]

When I hit a marker I want to Display "GG" in the chat.

I have got a resource which is a garage system that will have a marker. I write this code:

Marker = createMarker(1702.7998046875, -1079.2001953125, 22.89999961853, "cylinder", 2, 0, 0, 255)
local myMarker = createMarker(1702.7998046875, -1079.2001953125, 22.89999961853, 'cylinder', 2.0, 0, 0, 255, 150)

function MarkerHit( Element, matchingDimension )
    triggerClientEvent ( "onMarkerHit", getRootElement())
    outputChatBox("GG")
end
addEventHandler( "onMarkerHit", Marker, MarkerHit )

And when I go to the marker I created, nothing happened. But when I go to the garage system marker, that works. And the marker position in this code is not the same as the garage system marker.

Please help!!

Line 2, after "cylinder" you put 2.0 instead of just 2 as the size, that might be your issue

Not working..

You should always try to pin point the problem by adding output messages everywhere. Or prints, but anyway, try putting a output right after the createmarker so you know that was successfully made, then another message right before TriggerClientEvent… Wait, I don't even think you need the TriggerClientEvent line, that would keep looping forever...

Try commenting out that line and see if it works

Marker = createMarker(1702.7998046875, -1079.2001953125, 22.89999961853, "cylinder", 2, 0, 0, 255) -- Global variable for a marker (Probably should be local)
local myMarker = createMarker(1702.7998046875, -1079.2001953125, 22.89999961853, 'cylinder', 2.0, 0, 0, 255, 150) -- Locl variable for a marker

function MarkerHit( Element, matchingDimension )-- The function, notice the arugments as it will be useful (Element is whatever hits the marker, a player)
    -- triggerClientEvent ( "onMarkerHit", getRootElement())-- This will call MarkerHit, but we already triggered MarkerHit, so this is an infinite loop
    outputChatBox("GG",Element)-- This is our goal... By adding the Element argument, sends the message ONLY to the player that hit the marker
end -- Ends the function, easy enough

addEventHandler( "onMarkerHit", getRootElement(), MarkerHit )-- Defines that MTA-SA's onMarkerHit will be the function MarkerHit, had to change this too...

It will take some time, but you must learn in general how coding/scripting is done, try to understand what every line is doing. Use the MTA-SA Wiki for Events, Functions and such. Lua is the language MTA SA uses, will need to learn how the language operates too.  Remember, baby steps
