Clan Tags

[[DemoN]]

Guys I need help . I was editing playercolors for a clantag script but it outputs a message twice:

When I type: Hello World, it outputs;

DemoN: Hello World

[TestTag]DemoN: Hello World

If you know how to make it correct, here is my code(Note: I didn't make this resource, I've just changed it) :

local lowerBound,upperBound = unpack(get"color_range") 
g_Root = getRootElement () 
g_ResourceRoot = getResourceRootElement ( getThisResource () ) 
getPlayerColor = getPlayerNametagColor 
getPlayerColour = getPlayerNametagColor 
  
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", g_ResourceRoot, 
    function() 
        for i,player in ipairs(getElementsByType"player") do 
            processPlayer ( player ) 
        end 
    end 
) 
  
function processPlayer ( player ) 
    player = player or source 
    local r, g, b = math.random(lowerBound, upperBound), math.random(lowerBound, upperBound), math.random(lowerBound, upperBound) 
    setPlayerNametagColor(player, r, g, b) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerJoin", g_Root, processPlayer ) 
  
    function chatMyBox (msg, type) 
        if type == 0 then 
            cancelEvent() 
            local account = getPlayerAccount(source) 
            local r, g, b = getPlayerColor(source) 
            local name = getPlayerName(source) 
            local msg = msg:gsub('#%x%x%x%x%x%x', '') 
            if isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'Admin' ) ) then 
            outputChatBox( "#FF0000[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
        elseif isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'Moderator' ) ) then 
            outputChatBox( "#FF8000[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
        elseif isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'Member' ) ) then 
            outputChatBox( "#00FF00[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
        elseif isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'V.I.P' ) ) then 
            outputChatBox( "#0000FF[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
        elseif isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'Scripter' ) ) then 
            outputChatBox( "#00FFFF[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
        end 
            else 
            outputChatBox( name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler('onPlayerChat', g_Root, chatMyBox)

move end in line 39 to line 42.

also replace getPlayerColor with getPlayerNametagColor

not working and still outputs twice

thats why you want to keep spacing, so you can read it

function chatMyBox (msg, type) 
  if type == 0 then 
    cancelEvent() 
    local account = getPlayerAccount(source) 
    local r, g, b = getPlayerColor(source) 
    local name = getPlayerName(source) 
    local msg = msg:gsub('#%x%x%x%x%x%x', '') 
    if isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'Admin' ) ) the    
      outputChatBox( "#FF0000[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
    elseif isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'Moderator' ) ) the   
      outputChatBox( "#FF8000[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
    elseif isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'Member' ) ) then 
      outputChatBox( "#00FF00[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
    elseif isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'V.I.P' ) ) then 
      outputChatBox( "#0000FF[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
    elseif isObjectInACLGroup( 'user.'..getAccountName( account ), aclGetGroup( 'Scripter' ) ) the  
      outputChatBox( "#00FFFF[TestTag]" .. name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
   else    
      outputChatBox( name .. ': #FFFFFF' .. msg, g_Root, r, g, b, true) 
   end 
  end 
end

it still outputs twice. Try it on your pc. If it's correct, tell me

[karlis]

it work twice cuz some other res is running, try stopping playerblips/playercolors res.

[CowTurbo]

freeroam can have chat script too ?

[karlis]

dont know, stop res one by one and check

[Castillo]

Freeroam has a chat script also (if i'm not wrong), so maybe it's that or "playercolors" (this is the most usual).

[[DemoN]]

it work twice cuz some other res is running, try stopping playerblips/playercolors res.

If I close playercolors res., my script wont work because i'm working on it as Clan Tags.

Freeroam has a chat script also (if i'm not wrong), so maybe it's that or "playercolors" (this is the most usual).

Oh, really? If you know where i can find it, please tell me Castillo. I need it. Or tell me how can i make a script like that?

when you type on your server, it will output (If you are admin and your nick is Castillo): [MM]Castillo (for example).

Thanks for helpings but it still outputs twice. I think i won't make it correct

[karlis]

you just need to find other script that outputs chat too.
