WorkingOn: "Team-Spawn-Locations"

[Maurize]

.. I started to learn .lua.

My problem is im very very new and i want to know if my team spawn work.

I want to spawn different teams in different locations...

So i used MtaWiki for help

And now i want to know if this is correct or will i have to change something?

addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, 
    function() 
        for i,player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
            spawn(player) 
        end 
    end 
) 
  
function spawn(player, source, key, TeamName ) 
    local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam ( source ) 
    if ( playerTeam == "Mercenaries" ) then 
    spawnPlayer ( player, 2824.647+math.random(-0,5), -2438.673+math.random(-0,5), 13, 90, 179 ) 
    giveWeapon(player,23,51) 
    fadeCamera(player, true) 
    setCameraTarget(player, player) 
    else 
    spawnPlayer ( player, 1000+math.random(-0,5), 1000+math.random(-0,5), 13, 90, 177 ) 
    fadeCamera(player, true) 
    setCameraTarget(player, player) 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, 
    function() 
        spawn(source) 
    end 
) 
  
addEventHandler("onPlayerWasted", root, 
    function() 
        setTimer(spawn, 5000, 1, source) 
    end 
)

addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot,
function()
for i,player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do
		spawn(player)
end
end
)
 
function spawn(player) -- not sure where you want to get source, key, and TeamName from, you use spawn(player), therefore the first argument will be the only valid one, as you don't use any of those anyways i'd just remove them
local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam ( player ) -- player instead of source here
if ( getTeamName(playerTeam) == "Mercenaries" ) then -- remember that a team element is not the same as the teams name
spawnPlayer ( player, 2824.647+math.random(-0,5), -2438.673+math.random(-0,5), 13, 90, 179 )
giveWeapon(player,23,51)
fadeCamera(player, true)
setCameraTarget(player, player)
else
spawnPlayer ( player, 1000+math.random(-0,5), 1000+math.random(-0,5), 13, 90, 177 )
fadeCamera(player, true)
setCameraTarget(player, player)

hmm there must be a bug. this ressource doesn´t work but the console don´t say anything...

the spawn script doesn´t, work the others does.

i tried do debug but i don´t know...

u use autoteams... if this is important

there is the standart team ( civilian )

then ( police ) and ( mercenaries )

so this is what i did:

addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot,
function()
for i,player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do
        spawn(player)
end
end
)
 
function spawn(player)
local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam ( player )
if ( getTeamName(playerTeam) == "Mercenaries" ) then 
spawnPlayer ( player, 2824.647+math.random(-0,5), -2438.673+math.random(-0,5), 13, 90, 179 )
giveWeapon(player, 22, 51)
giveWeapon(player, 31, 100)
setPlayerStat ( thePlayer, 69, 999 )
setPlayerStat ( thePlayer, 78, 1000 )
setPlayerStat ( thePlayer, 24, 1000 )
fadeCamera(player, true)
setCameraTarget(player, player)
elseif ( getTeamName(playerTeam) == "Police" ) then 
spawnPlayer ( player, 2300.647+math.random(-0,5), -2000.673+math.random(-0,5), 13, 90, 172 )
giveWeapon(player, 22, 51)
setPlayerStat ( thePlayer, 70, 999 )
fadeCamera(player, true)
setCameraTarget(player, player)
else spawnPlayer ( player, 1000+math.random(-0,5), 1000+math.random(-0,5), 13, 90, 177 )
fadeCamera(player, true)
setCameraTarget(player, player)
end
 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root,
function()
     spawn(source)
end
)
 
addEventHandler("onPlayerWasted", root,
function()
setTimer(spawn, 5000, 1, source)
end
)

oh yes, there's an 'end' missing after line 28, also note that the player has to be in a team already if you want them to spawn in the predetermined area for the Mercenaries and the Police
