Triggering clientside events won't work.

[Dzakub]

Hi,

I want to trigger a event from server by triggerClientEvent, but it doesn't work.

Here's the code:

  
Server: 
 function startTrip() 
    triggerClientEvent(source,"startTrip", source) 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onPlayerPickupHit", getRootElement(), startTrip) 
  
Client: 
addEvent("startTrip",true) 
addEventHandler("startTrip", getRootElement(), getTrip)

read more wiki.

source of onPlayerPickupHit event is PICKUP. and you are trying to trigger client event on PICKUP.

No, you are wrong.

The source of this event is the player that hit the pickup.

And it is not the problem, my server shows an error that the event startTrip is not added clientside, However if i copy this same code to runcode (by run and crun) it works

first: you should always tell us EXACT error.

second: you are right, i was wrong, just didnt read carefully - and this is caused because you wont tell its triggering any error

third: ill try it now

edit:

You may want to use onPlayerPickupUse instead.
