onPickupHit?

[x86]

Hi,

This is my script for a house system (SQL)

  
onResourceStart()..... 
while ... do 
   createPickup(house["x"], house["y"], house["z"], 3, 1272, 2000) 
end 
--------------------------------------- 
  
function HuisjesPickup() 
    outputChatBox(source) 
    cancelEvent() 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerPickupUse", root, HuisjesPickup) 
  

And the error:

ERROR: ...A/mods/deathmatch/resourcecache/greenhood/server.lua:370: attempt to concatenate global 'source' (a userdata value)

Can you help me?

Thank you.

You can't output a player element to a chat box.

outputChatBox(getClientName(source))

You can't output a player element to a chat box.

But why isn't this possible? All elements have their numerical IDs, right?

Possibly because the function is expecting a string object and not an element object structure. And an element does not have a numeric id by default as far as I know.

It has something, not sure what it is. But when you use tostring it has some sort of id.

That random number is a memory address.

Oh, right.

source = pickup id ?

From wiki:

The source of this event is the player that is standing on a pickup.
