teleport script

Loren_ita · January 25, 2010

I'm learning how to script in mta.

When i click with the cursor che marker isn't where i click. It appears another place of the map. why?

I have copyed this script from mta site and edited it..

Client side:

function Script1 ()
  bindKey( "I", "down", modeIO )
end
 
function modeIO ( source, key, keyState )						--This function toggles the cursor on/off
if isCursorShowing ( source ) then						--If cursor was already showing,
	showCursor ( false )						--then hide it;
else										--if it wasn't showing,
	showCursor ( true ) 						--then show it.
   end
end
 
function Script4 ( key, keyState, element, x, y, z )
   --if keyState == "up" then return end						--Don't do anything if he's releasing the button.
if key == "left" then
    local del = getElementData ( source, "teleport" )								--If it's left-click:
	destroyElement ( del )
	local screenx, screeny, worldx, worldy, worldz = getCursorPosition()
	local theMarker = createMarker ( worldx, worldy, worldz, cylinder, 1.5, 1, 255, 0, 50 )	--Create a cylindric marker
	setElementData ( theMarker, "type", teleport )				--Mark the cylinder as a teleport
	setElementData ( source, "teleport", theMarker )				--Link the creator to the teleport
	setElementData ( theMarker, "owner", source )				--Link the teleport to its creator
 
elseif key == "right" then							--If it's right-click
    local del = getElementData ( source, "destination" )								--If it's left-click:
	destroyElement ( del )		--Destroy his destination point, if any
	local screenx, screeny, worldx, worldy, worldz = getCursorPosition()
	local theMarker = createMarker ( worldx, worldy, worldz, cylinder, 1.5, 1, 255, 255, 50 )	--Create a glowing corona
	setElementData ( theMarker, "type", destination )			--Mark the corona as a destination point
	setElementData ( source,"destination", theMarker )			--Link the creator to the teleport
	setElementData ( theMarker, "owner", source )				--Link the teleport to its creator
	end
end
 
	--This event tells what happens if a player steps inside a marker.
function Script5 ( player )
if getElementData ( source, "type" ) == teleport then				--If the marker is a teleport point,
	local owner = getElementData ( source, "owner" )			--Get the owner linked to the teleport point.
	local destination = getElementData ( owner, "destination" )		--Get the destination point linked to the owner.
	if destination then							--If destination point exists,
		local x, y, z = getElementPosition ( destination )		--Get the destination point's position.
		setElementPosition ( thePlayer, x, y, z )				--Put the player there.
	end
end
end
 
--This event tells what happens if a player disconnects.
function Script2 ( reason )
destroyElement ( getElementData ( source, "teleport" ) )			--Destroy his teleport point, if any
destroyElement ( getElementData ( source, "destination" ) )			--Destroy his destination point, if any
end
 
addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), Script1 )
addEventHandler ( "onClientPlayerQuit", getRootElement(), Script2 )
addEventHandler ( "onClientClick", getRootElement(), Script4 )
addEventHandler ( "onClientMarkerHit", getRootElement(), Script5 )

Please help my!

Please say which script did you take it from because someone who made it was at similar scripting level as you are. (Function names Script1, Script2, etc. wtf?)

-- Change this:
function Script4 ( key, keyState, element, x, y, z )
-- To this:
function Script4 ( key, _, _, _, x, y, z ) -- you don't need keystate, nor absolute screen coords but you need world x, y and z
-------------------------------------------------------
-- Change this
local screenx, screeny, worldx, worldy, worldz = getCursorPosition()
local theMarker = createMarker ( worldx, worldy, worldz, cylinder, 1.5, 1, 255, 0, 50 )
-- To this:
local theMarker = createMarker ( x, y, z, cylinder, 1.5, 1, 255, 0, 50 )

Ok now script work but when i enter in a marker it don't teleport...

I have downloaded the script tutorial N° 1 from mta web site. http://www.mtasa.com/tutorial1.html

Now the script is:

   end
end
 
function OnClick ( key, _, _, _, x, y, z )
   --if keyState == "up" then return end						--Don't do anything if he's releasing the button.

These tutorials are outdated unless someone has changed them and I don't know it.

Why don't you debug it yourself? Learn to debug, it will save you time to wait for reply and save us time asking you to find out what "this" and "that" returns, holds, etc.

As I said, these tutorials are outdated so you better try looking at wiki instead or force authors of these tutorials to remake them.

Are the markers actually created when you click? If so, I can't believe it's this code that creates the marker.

cylinder seems to be variable. Have you defined it somewhere? It should be string "cylinder". Similar with if statement (where teleport is). It's almost morning here... I'm tired and there is so many errors in the code that you should trace them yourself. Again, debug.

OK. however i already use the debug. I'm italian so i don't understand all of the wiki. That's why I asked you for help. Thanks anyway!

Once you learn how to debug what is basically showing what variables contain in your chatbox or debug window, you will fix many scripts yourself, even with little scripting knowledge. Most of people posting their problems here just ignore debugging what makes them go mad sometimes because they can't wait for replies. You have to understand error messages your scripts may give you since they will come up very often if you're new scripter. If you don't understand English very well, use a translator or a dictionary to find out what wiki is trying to tell you.

i am new where to copy this script plz help me i want to learn lua if someone has a video one youtube that will explain it will be very helpfull thx

dzek (varez) · November 9, 2010

nice bump..

January 2010 -> November 2010..

if you don't know lua - don't try to use these things.

start learning -> https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Scr ... troduction

or use ready scripts -> https://community.multitheftauto.com/

At least what he says is not ridiculously pointless.

Remember about https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Main_Page and http://www.lua.org/pil/index.html
