getPlayerMoney strange..

[Feche1320]

getPlayerMoney on client-side scripts sometimes returns me 0, is it a bug?

[Zango]

If player's cash isn't 0 and the result differentiates from the serverside one, then yes?

[Feche1320]

I have a server-side client (/cash), and it show the right ammount, but client-side sometimes returns $0.

[Aibo]

well you haven't posted any code.

[Feche1320]

  
local player = getLocalPlayer() 
  
addEventHandler('onClientGUIClick', BuyMapButton, 
    function() 
        local money = getPlayerMoney(player) 
        if money > 3499 then 
            local row, column = guiGridListGetSelectedItem(Shop) 
            local mapname = guiGridListGetItemText(Shop, row, column) 
            triggerServerEvent("buyMapFromPanel", getLocalPlayer(), mapname) 
        else 
            outputChatBox("You don't have enough money, you have $" ..tostring(money).. ", you need $3500.", 255, 0, 0) 
        end 
    end 
) 

That is.

[Aibo]

thats the whole code?

are you sure that script local «player» variable is not reassigned somewhere else?

anyway its a bad decision to store local player in «player» variable, can be confusing.

[Feche1320]

No, it's not the hole code, just a part.

And in that client-side script its the only player variable that I have.

Also, I have three buttons on my gui, and if I press at the middle of the gui for example, is like the buttons are pressed.

EDIT:

I still have the getPlayerMoney problem, I also tried getPlayerMoney(getLocalPlayer()) and still not working.

Show me the eventHandlers or what you use

I solved that, I had to put false at the end

Still having getPlayerMoney bug..

Is there any other way on getting a player's money?

Oh ok theres the "strike" for

It should just work, really weird i'll try something and see if i get problems

EDIT: Works for me, i did ( at result of clicking GUI button, to test: )

outputChatBox("you cash is: "..getPlayerMoney(client),client)  

and it resulted in giving me my cash number, so it must be the element...

[Feche1320]

addCommandHandler('asd', 
    function() 
        outputChatBox(tostring(getPlayerMoney(getLocalPlayer()))) 
    end 
) 

This simply returns $0 to me..

[Fabio(GNR)]

addCommandHandler('asd', 
    function() 
        outputChatBox(tostring(getPlayerMoney(getLocalPlayer()))) 
    end 
) 

This simply returns $0 to me..

why do you use tostring and stuff try the exact same i did

EDIT: im sorry but i don't think i can help you

[Feche1320]

No..

Still not working

Why the hell it returns 0??

[Aibo]

do you have any money?

which gamemode are you using?

[Feche1320]

Yes, my /cash command script-sided returns the right ammount of money.

I'm using the race gamemode.

Something that I discovered, if I login, money will be displayed, and when another map starts, it returns 0 again, but if I set my money, it will return the right value.

Could it be a MTA bug?

A temporary fix that I did is this:

  
addEvent('onMapStarting') 
addEventHandler('onMapStarting', g_Root, 
    function() 
        for i, player in ipairs(getElementsByType('player')) do 
            local moneys = getPlayerMoney(player) 
            setPlayerMoney(player, moneys) 
        end 
    end 
) 

It seems to be working..

[Aibo]

are there any other resources running that can possibly set player money?

[Feche1320]

Mh.. no.. really strange.
