[HELP] SPAWN

[MaRcell]

 

how do I pull the value from the table, for the spawn? I have doubts I thought it was so but it was not lol

local spawnLocation = {
    {2028.17480 ,-1405.71252 ,17.22696}
} 
function spawn()
spawnPlayer(source,spawnLocation)
fadeCamera(source, true) 
setCameraTarget(source, source)
end
addEventHandler( "onPlayerWasted", getRootElement(), spawn )

First of all, check the syntax of spawnPlayer. (https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/SpawnPlayer)

Quote

player thePlayer, float x, float y, float z

You need x, y and z, not a table.

 

I don't know why you want to use table only for 1 spawn, but then:

x, y, z = spawnLocation[1][1], spawnLocation[1][2], spawnLocation[1][3]
-- Why?
-- spawnLocation   => its the table
--              [1]   => its the first row of the table
--                 [2] => its the second value in the first row (the Y coord)

 

And here is a Lua tutorial, you should read that, if you want to learn.

it is because afterwards I will put other values in the table so from the table otherwise I would only do a spawnPlayer (source, x, y, z)

You can do spawnLocation[1][1], spawnLocation[1][2]... as Patrick told you to.

Or use unpack:

spawnPlayer(source,unpack(spawnLocation[1]))

 

[MaRcell]

would i have to use a spawn player for each value in the table?

I don't understand what you want, but I think select a random spawnpoint in every time.

If yes, here is an example:

local rows = #spawnLocation -- example, returns 2 if have 2 spawnpoints in the table
local randomRowIndex = math.random(1, rows) -- return a number between 1 and length of the table. (what can be 1 or 2, if have 2 spawnpoints in the table)
local x, y, z = spawnLocation[randomRowIndex][1], spawnLocation[randomRowIndex][2], spawnLocation[randomRowIndex][3] -- get values like in previous example
