scripting [Help] Drawing text on element(s)

[Kazafka]

This, don't work. Idk why. Look:

addEventHandler("onClientRender", resourceRoot, function()
	dxDrawTextOnElement(localPlayer, "P L A Y E R", 1, 20, 0, 0, 255, 255, 1, "pricedown")
end)

Ofcourse, I have dxDrawTextOnElement() function in my script and script is in type client.

Replace source of event to root instead of resourceRoot.

It has nothing to do with maths.

But with breaking down the instructions (for the computer) in to pieces and debug every piece individually.

 

When running this code you gave the computer 4 instructions.

1. Load the file

Runs a debug line if added.

2. Attach the eventhandler (returns true if attached, which is a value you can debug)

3. The event is fired, which calls the function you have attached.

If you did add a debug line here, you would have noticed that the code didn't run. (If the debug line is not visible, then there must have been something with the addEventHandler)

Hmmmmaybe compare the code to something similar that does work?

 

4. Call your custom function.

Check which value it returns.

 

This is something that takes time to learn. So maybe put some more time in debug your code in details. This will save you a lot of time in the long run.
