Position of the Health bar etc.

[Trevit]

Hi,

If you look at any Player ingame, you see his name and health. I want to change the position of the player's name to his head and I want to make a seperate bar for his armor.

How can i do this?

You can't move the default health bars, name, you must create your own using DX drawing functions.

But if I create them clientside, only the player see them.

I want that every player can see the bar, expect the player himself.

[Castillo]

that's not right, if i'm right every should see them, and about that you shouldn't see yours, there is a way but i don't know it.

[Aibo]

well every player will see it, because client scripts run for every player.

loop through players onClientRender event, and draw a bar for every one, if player ~= getLocalPlayer().

[Castillo]

so with that check, won't show for the local player, right? ( i suposed was like this )

Check this resource or the video if you don't want to download it: https://community.multitheftauto.com/index.php?p= ... ils&id=234

It was made as an example for people to learn about ped controls, there is also a health bar for the peds, check how it was made.

THANK YOU!

Now i want to draw the players name over his head. Wich function is right for that?

[Castillo]

to draw his name use https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/DxDrawText combined with getPlayerName.

MetalGear14, you know he won't be able to do that only by using those 2 functions, and very few days on MTA Server Developing level

I suggest you use this resource: https://community.multitheftauto.com/index.php?p=resources&s=details&id=734

When you know how to script, you will be able to do it by yourself.

Thanks for the link.

I have another little problem at the moment:

Always when a player enters a vehicle, he starts the engine.

I tried to solve it with "onPlayerVehicleEnter" and "onVehicleEnter", but if i use that, he tries to start the engine, but the process gets interrupted. I want that he doesn't try it. Do you know any way for that?

cancelEvent() 

onVehicleStartEnter?
