Nametag Problem.

[Vigo.K]

Greetings.

I have problem with Nametag.

I'm using MTA: Paradise Role-Play gamemode.

Okay, I made one script, when I'm using: /duty, then player Nametag changes its color.

Here is script:

addCommandHandler( "duty", 
    function( thePlayer, commandName, r, g, b ) 
        if exports.players:isLoggedIn( thePlayer ) then 
            local inPD, factionID, factionName, factionTag = exports.factions:isPlayerInFactionType( thePlayer, 2 ) 
            if inPD and factionTag then 
                giveWeapon ( thePlayer, 41, 500 ) 
                setElementHealth ( thePlayer, 100 ) 
                setPlayerNametagColor ( thePlayer, 176, 0, 0 ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 

But, when I'm using: /duty its changes to red color, but after 3-5 seconds it's back on white color.

Could you guys please, with your smart brains help me?

Thanks anyway, waiting your answers. <3

Maybe paradise game mode has something on it doing that, search in every script from it.

Probably that knot is here...

Script:

local function updateNametagColor( player ) 
    local nametagColor = { 127, 127, 127, priority = 0 } 
    if p[ player ] and isLoggedIn( player ) then 
        nametagColor = { 255, 255, 255, priority = 0 } 
        if getOption( player, "staffduty" ) then 
            for key, value in ipairs( groups ) do 
                if isObjectInACLGroup( "user." .. p[ player ].username, aclGetGroup( value.aclGroup ) ) and value.nametagColor then 
                    if value.priority > nametagColor.priority then 
                        nametagColor = value.nametagColor 
                        nametagColor.priority = value.priority 
                    end 
                end 
            end 
        end 
    end 
    setPlayerNametagColor( player, unpack( nametagColor ) ) 
end

Hm, you could try to export the updateNametagColor function in the meta.xml, and let it update the color itself. (but I don't know if it would set the color you want)

Maybe you should put all the changes your script does into the paradise gamemode, it could prevent a lot of work for you.

updateNametagColor calls for a getOption and setOption function, i tried working with your system but it's a little complicated when it comes to PRP's getOption and setOption

addCommandHandler( "duty", 
    function( thePlayer, commandName ) 
        if exports.players:isLoggedIn( thePlayer ) then 
            if isPlayerInFactionType( thePlayer, 1 ) then 
                if getElementData(thePlayer, "dutyOn") == true then 
                    takeWeapon( thePlayer, 41 ) 
                    setPedArmor( thePlayer, 0 ) 
                    setPlayerNametagColor( thePlayer, 255, 255, 255 ) 
                    outputChatBox("You are no longer on duty.", thePlayer, 255, 255, 255 ) 
                    setElementData(thePlayer, "dutyOn", false) 
                else 
                    giveWeapon( thePlayer, 41, 500 ) 
                    setPedArmor( thePlayer, 100 ) 
                    setPlayerNametagColor( thePlayer, 0, 0, 255 ) 
                    outputChatBox("You are now on duty.", thePlayer, 255, 255, 255 ) 
                    setElementData(thePlayer, "dutyOn", true) 
                end 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 

Is how far I got with it.
