Races +1 (client)

[[DMC]]

function addStatsData()  
    setElementData(localPlayer,"Race Loses",0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerWasted", getLocalPlayer(), addStatsData) 

Well im using this to set in a label the amount of DM's lost

But when i die it sets to 0 and when i change 0 to 5 it sets to 5

My question is how can i do +1 every time i die

[dzek (varez)]

omg.. its too easy to ask o_O

and was asked 10000000000000 times..

make script from these ( i did not follow syntax etc, and it can have some typos)

  
x = getElementData 
if not nil and not false 
setElementData (..., x+1) 
else 
setElementData(...,0) 
end

looks complicated

function addStatsData()  
x = getElementData 
if not nil and not false 
setElementData (localPlayer,"Race Loses", x+1) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerWasted", getLocalPlayer(), addStatsData) 
  

i tried this

[dzek (varez)]

1.) dont forget about else i've written

2.) https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/GetElementData

3.) think!

4.) if x ~= nil and x ~= false then -- until you come with new question..

Like u did + i tried that before but it didnt work. but im sure it needs to work

cuz i tried +1 before and then it worked but now it doesnt anymore

argh argh....

Should i give you link to lua tutorial and debugging tutorial? Just check other topics - every 5 messages i'm posting these links but nobody even cares to CLICK those links:/

  
function addStatsData()  
  x = getElementData(localPlayer,"Race Loses") 
  if x ~= nil and x ~= false then 
    setElementData (localPlayer,"Race Loses", tonumber(x)+1) 
  else 
    setElementData (localPlayer,"Race Loses", 0) 
  end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerWasted", getLocalPlayer(), addStatsData) 
  

you just got to my personal blacklist of ppl not trying to think, which means i'm not interested in your topics anymore - if you care..

i think this was easier,

if getElementData(localPlayer,"Race Loses") then 
setElementData(localPlayer,"Race Loses",tonumber(getElementData(localPlayer,"Race Loses"))+1)    
else 
setElementData(localPlayer,"Race Loses",1)

same thing but looks more confusing for me (but eliminate my mistake when after first death Loses are set to 0 instead of 1)
