Good...

I really didn't want to post this but,

What make's you diffrent when you just post "Good..."?

That's the same.

[Jaysds1]

ok, Now can you guyz get on Topic,

I need help with this update gui thing.

[Jaysds1]

how do you show the gui to the client when triggering a Client Event?

[Castillo]

guiSetVisible?

[Jaysds1]

No, I meant only showing the gui to the person not to others.

Sorry about the first question.

[Castillo]

triggerClientEvent(playerElement,"eventName",playerElement) 

[Jaysds1]

so, the playerElement could be "source" or "client"?

[Castillo]

playerElement = your player element, is that hard to understand?

[Jaysds1]

attitude....

I'm just trying to learn like everybody else....

GOOOSH!

[JR10]

You want to show a gui for 1 player only just like castillo you trigger a client event for the player like this:

--server side 
triggerClientEvent(player, 'showGUI', player) 
  
--client side 
addEvent('showGUI', true) 
addEventHandler('showGUI', root, 
    function() 
        guiSetVisible(gui, true) 
    end 
) 

player is the player you want to show him the gui

[Jaysds1]

ok, thanks

THAT'S SOOOO BETTER!

How do you make a script on, when a admin login and automatically adds "{SERVERNAME}" at the beginning of the admin name?

My server-side script:

  
function iamAdmin(player) 
local account = getPlayerAccount(player) 
if not account then return end 
local accountName = getAccountName(account) 
if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accountName, aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
            local tag = "{JWORLD}" 
            local oldName = getPlayerName ( client ) 
            local newName = tag .. oldName 
            setPlayerName (source, newName) 
            setPlayerTeam" class="kw6">setPlayerTeam (source, teamA) 
            ouputChatBox ("ADMIN ON LINE") 
end 
if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accountName, aclGetGroup ( "Moderator" ) ) then 
            local tag = "{JWORLD MODERATOR}" 
            local oldName = getPlayerName ( client ) 
            local newName = tag .. oldName 
            setPlayerName (source, newName) 
            setPlayerTeam" class="kw6">setPlayerTeam (source, teamM) 
            ouputChatBox ("MODERATOR ON LINE") 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlyerLogin", getRootElement(), iamAdmin) 
  

[CowTurbo]

[/lua]

function iamAdmin()

local account = getPlayerAccount(source)

if not account then return end

local accountName = getAccountName(source)

if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accountName, aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then

setPlayerNametagText (source, "{JWORLD}..getPlayerName(source))

setPlayerTeam (source, teamA)

ouputChatBox ("* INFO: Admin have logged in!")

end

if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accountName, aclGetGroup ( "Moderator" ) ) then

setPlayerNametagText (source, "{JWORLDMOD}..getPlayerName(source))

setPlayerTeam (source, teamM)

ouputChatBox ("" INFO: Moderator have logged in!")

end

end

addEventHandler("onPlyerLogin", getRootElement(), iamAdmin)[/lua]

when you chat, then you will see the tag,

[Castillo]

What's that TurboCow? getAccountName(source) o,O? also.. when you chat your nametag text is not shown in the chat without the script to do that. You have a lot of mistakes in this script. Here's what Jaysd1 wanted:

function iamAdmin() 
    local account = getPlayerAccount(source) 
    local accountName = getAccountName(account) 
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accountName, aclGetGroup ( "Sr.Admin" ) ) then 
    setPlayerTeam (source, teamA) 
    setPlayerName(source, "{JWORLD}"..getPlayerName(source)) 
    ouputChatBox ("* INFO: Admin have logged in!") 
    elseif isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accountName, aclGetGroup ( "Moderator" ) ) then 
    setPlayerName(source, "{JWORLD}"..getPlayerName(source)) 
    setPlayerTeam (source, teamM) 
    ouputChatBox ("INFO: Moderator have logged in!") 
  end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin", getRootElement(), iamAdmin)

Thanks Castillo

I made this script, when a person change there nick to our beginning nick (ex. {SANL}....) it cancels the event but when an admin logs in it tries to cancel the Event but still goes through.

Here is my script:

client-side only

  
function removeHEX(oldNick,newNick) 
        if (string.find(newNick,"{JWORLD}")) then 
            local account = getPlayerAccount(source) 
            local accountName = getAccountName(account) 
            if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accountName, aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
            triggerEvent() 
            end 
        else 
            outputChatBox("You can't have our beginning nick.", source, 255, 0, 0) 
            cancelEvent() 
        end  
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerChangeNick",getRootElement(),removeHEX) 
  

[JR10]

function removeHEX(oldNick,newNick) 
        if (string.find(newNick,"{JWORLD}")) then 
            local account = getPlayerAccount(source) 
            local accountName = getAccountName(account) 
            if not isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accountName, aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
            outputChatBox("You can't have our beginning nick.", source, 255, 0, 0) 
            cancelEvent() 
            end 
      end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerChangeNick",getRootElement(),removeHEX) 

[Jaysds1]

thanks

[JR10]

No problem.

[Jaysds1]

I have a problem with my rule/help gui.

When I press f2 the window is not in the center, all the gui elements/buttons and memo are in the left corner then when i press f2 again, it opens up more windows.

I want the window to be in the center, same with the elements and the button to close the gui.

Here is my script:

Server-side

  
  
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), 
function() 
    bindKey (source, "f2", "down", serverWin ) 
end 
) 
  
  
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), 
function() 
    for index, player in pairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
    unbindKey ( source, "f2", "down", serverWin ) 
    end 
end 
) 
function serverWin() 
    triggerClientEvent ( "server", getRootElement()) 
end 
  

Client-side

  
  
function CreateRule() 
  
GUIEditor_Window = {} 
GUIEditor_Button = {} 
  
rules = guiCreateWindow(194,108,426,400,"J World: Freeroam Service Window",false) 
--Buttons 
chg_pss = guiCreateButton(15,33,70,40,"change password",false,GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
chg_nick = guiCreateButton(95,35,70,40,"change nick",false,GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
lout = guiCreateButton(178,36,70,40,"Logout",false,GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
--Text 
read_only = guiCreateMemo(17,92,398,100,"                            Welcome to J World: Freeroam\n\n                             There is no rules on this server.\n\n          All we ask is to be respectful to others and have FUN.",false,GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
guiMemoSetReadOnly(read_only,true) 
guiCreateLabel(20,231,371,145,"COMING SOON!!!",false,GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
end 
  

[JR10]

How the window variable is rules? and your parent for all the buttons and memo is GUIEditor_Window[1]??

Replace GUIEditor_Window[1] with rules.

And, i don't see the event added, and you probably create the rule window each time the player press F2

create it on resource start, hide it, then show it when needed.

Here: client side

function CreateRule() 
GUIEditor_Button = {} 
  
rules = guiCreateWindow(194,108,426,400,"J World: Freeroam Service Window",false) 
--Buttons 
chg_pss = guiCreateButton(15,33,70,40,"change password",false,rules) 
chg_nick = guiCreateButton(95,35,70,40,"change nick",false,rules) 
lout = guiCreateButton(178,36,70,40,"Logout",false,rules) 
--Text 
read_only = guiCreateMemo(17,92,398,100,"                            Welcome to J World: Freeroam\n\n                             There is no rules on this server.\n\n          All we ask is to be respectful to others and have FUN.",false,rules) 
guiMemoSetReadOnly(read_only,true) 
guiCreateLabel(20,231,371,145,"COMING SOON!!!",false,rules) 
guiSetVisible(rules, false) 
end 
  
addEventHandler('onClientResourceStart', resourceRoot, 
function() 
CreateRule() 
end 
) 
  
addEvent('server', true) 
addEventHandler('server', root, 
    function() 
        guiSetVisible(rules, not guiGetVisible(rules)) 
        showCursor(not isCursorShowing()) 
    end 
)
