What is wrong?

[LooooP]

Well, I made a script for make a object lose Collision after a player hit the Marker

My script: (called 'Script.lua')

Player = getLocalPlayer
function ClientStarted ()
WaterJump = createObject(1655, 264.8388671875, -2051.4384765625, 21.06884765625, 53.9912109375, 0, 180)
WaterJumpCheckpoint = createMarker(264.8388671875, -2034.388671875, 50.7795753479, "cylinder", 7, 0, 0, 255, 0)
end
 
function MarkerHit(hitPlayer, matchingDimension)
if hitPlayer ~= Player then
return
end
Car = getPedOccupiedVehicle(hitPlayer)
if source == WaterJumpCheckpoint then
setElementCollisionsEnabled(WaterJump, false)
setTimer(Collision, 10000, 1)
end
end
 
function Collision ()
setElementCollisionsEnabled(WaterJump, true)
end
 
addEventHandler ( "onClientMarkerHit", getRootElement(), MarkerHit )
addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), ClientStarted )

When I open the map with /debugscript 3 MTA shows it for me:

INFO: #ffffffLo#ff0000oooP opened map [DM] LooooP ft NitroN. (opening took 172 ms)
INFO: Suspending editor_main
INFO: Votemanager precreateGuiElements
INFO: Race resource starting
INFO: Race onGamemodeStart
INFO: onGamemodeMapStart(editor_test)
INFO: Loaded race mode Freeroam

The problem: The script make the object, but after I hit the Marker the object don't become non-collision. I checked the script about 100 times and I didn't find any error, but what is wrong with my script?

bug on first line

Player = getLocalPlayer()

btw: you can attach your onClientMarkerHit to your marker, instead of checking source

edit:

for what is line 11?

Ok, I put the '()' in front of getLocalPlayer, but now the object is non-collision before hit the marker

[dzek (varez)]

Player = getLocalPlayer()
 
function ClientStarted ()
outputDebugString("starting resource")
  WaterJump = createObject(1655, 264.8388671875, -2051.4384765625, 21.06884765625, 53.9912109375, 0, 180)
  WaterJumpCheckpoint = createMarker(264.8388671875, -2034.388671875, 50.7795753479, "cylinder", 7, 0, 0, 255, 0)
addEventHandler ( "onClientMarkerHit", WaterJumpCheckpoint, MarkerHit )
end
 
function MarkerHit(hitPlayer, matchingDimension)
outputDebugString("something hit marker?")
if hitPlayer == Player and matchingDimension then
outputDebugString("and looks like this is local player")
--Car = getPedOccupiedVehicle(hitPlayer)
setElementCollisionsEnabled(WaterJump, false)
setTimer(Collision, 10000, 1)
end
end
 
function Collision ()
outputDebugString("reverting collision")
setElementCollisionsEnabled(WaterJump, true)
end
 
addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), ClientStarted )

now watch out for messages in debugscript /3

Its a problem in the marker, the car hit it with 50meters Z far away of the marker (the marker is in the top of a loop)

EDIT: I fixed it using a new timer:

Player = getLocalPlayer ()
function ClientStarted ()
WaterJump = createObject(1655, 264.8388671875, -2051.4384765625, 21.06884765625, 53.9912109375, 0, 180)
WaterJumpCheckpoint = createMarker(264.8388671875, -2034.388671875, 50.7795753479, "cylinder", 7, 0, 0, 255, 0)
end
 
function MarkerHit(hitPlayer, matchingDimension)
if hitPlayer ~= Player then
return
end
if source == WaterJumpCheckpoint then
setTimer(Collision1, 3000, 1)
end
end
 
function Collision1 ()
setElementCollisionsEnabled(WaterJump, false)
setTimer(Collision2, 10000, 1)
end
 
function Collision2 ()
setElementCollisionsEnabled(WaterJump, true)
end
 
addEventHandler ( "onClientMarkerHit", getRootElement(), MarkerHit )
addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), ClientStarted )

Thank you for help

yup.. you can hit marker in any height, even 100000units above.. You can fix it with getting local player and marker position on hit and getting distance with some function (cant remember its name) (you can find it on wiki - search "useful functions") -- but remember -- once you hit marker and distance will be too far - you have to left marker and hit it again
