Command problem

[SWEMike]

function onResourceStart ( name, root )
vehBar = getElementByID ( "vehbar" )
origX, origY, origZ = getElementPosition ( vehBar )
end
 
function closeVehicleBar ( playerSource, commandName )
local preX, preY, preZ = getObjectRotation( vehBar )
if preY == 0.0 then
local rotY = 90.0
moveObject ( vehBar, 4000, origX, origY, origZ, 0.0, rotY, 0.0 )
end
end
 
function openVehicleBar ( playerSource, commandName )
local preX, preY, preZ = getObjectRotation( vehBar )
if preY == 90.0 then
local rotY = -90.0
moveObject ( vehBar, 4000, origX, origY, origZ, 0.0, rotY, 0.0 )
end
end
 
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getRootElement(), onResourceStart )
addCommandHandler ( "closebar", closeVehicleBar )
addCommandHandler ( "openbar", openVehicleBar )

Can anyone tell me why I have to write the commands two times everytime I want to use it to make it work?

Explanation: I go ingame, write /openbar, ntohing happens, I write /openbar again, it works. I then want to close it, I use the command /closebar, ntohing happens, I do it again there it goes down. I have tested it lots of times it always works on the second use of the commands, and yes, I even tried waiting a few seconds after that it closed/opened all the way, still the same result.

example:

function onResourceStart ( name, root )
  vehBar = getElementByID ( "vehbar" )
  origX, origY, origZ = getElementPosition ( vehBar )
end
 
function closeVehicleBar ( playerSource, commandName )
outputDebugString("player "..getPlayerName(playerSource).." wants to close bar")
local preX, preY, preZ = getObjectRotation( vehBar )
outputDebugString("current bar rotation: "..tostring(preY))
if preY == 0.0 then
outputDebugString("moving bar:")
local rotY = 90.0
outputDebugString(tostring(moveObject ( vehBar, 4000, origX, origY, origZ, 0.0, rotY, 0.0 )))
end
end
 
function openVehicleBar ( playerSource, commandName )
outputDebugString("player "..getPlayerName(playerSource).." wants to open bar")
local preX, preY, preZ = getObjectRotation( vehBar )
outputDebugString("current bar rotation: "..tostring(preY))
if preY == 90.0 then
outputDebugString("moving bar:")
local rotY = -90.0
outputDebugString(tostring(moveObject ( vehBar, 4000, origX, origY, origZ, 0.0, rotY, 0.0 )))
end
end
 
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getRootElement(), onResourceStart )
addCommandHandler ( "closebar", closeVehicleBar )
addCommandHandler ( "openbar", openVehicleBar )

I don't get it! D:

and what if you wait few seconds after closing/opening?

could you post your map file too (can be just with that one object)?

this looks rly weird

[SWEMike]

If I wait a few seconds nothing happens. And sure, I'll give ya the map.

Looks like this is a bug (i will report it).

Just after every move, getObjectRotation twice - to get right value..

and btw: onResourceStart should be attached to getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()) NOT to getRootElement() ! Why? Read here.

Here's your script:

function onResourceStart ( name, root )
  vehBar = getElementByID ( "vehbar" )
  origX, origY, origZ = getElementPosition ( vehBar )
end
 
function closeVehicleBar ( playerSource, commandName )
local preX, preY, preZ = getObjectRotation( vehBar )
local preX, preY, preZ = getObjectRotation( vehBar )
if preY == 0.0 then
local rotY = 90.0
end
end
 
function openVehicleBar ( playerSource, commandName )
local preX, preY, preZ = getObjectRotation( vehBar )
local preX, preY, preZ = getObjectRotation( vehBar )
if preY == 90.0 then
local rotY = -90.0
end
end
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), onResourceStart )
addCommandHandler ( "closebar", closeVehicleBar )
addCommandHandler ( "openbar", openVehicleBar )

Okay, thanks! I'll try it right away.

I don't think LUA likes me too much.

Okay, it works now. Thank you very much!

Oh, and sorry about the edit thing, I'll use it next time.
