Colorblips

[Resmurf]

i wanna make blips for the team color

  
root = getRootElement () 
color = { 0, 255, 0 } 
players = {} 
resourceRoot = getResourceRootElement ( getThisResource () ) 
  
function onResourceStart ( resource ) 
    for id, player in ipairs( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
        if ( players[player] ) then 
            createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
        else 
            createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
function onPlayerSpawn ( spawnpoint ) 
    if ( players[source] ) then 
        createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
    else 
        createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
    end 
end 
  
function onPlayerQuit () 
    destroyBlipsAttachedTo ( source ) 
end 
  
function onPlayerWasted ( totalammo, killer, killerweapon ) 
    destroyBlipsAttachedTo ( source ) 
end 
  
function setBlipsColor ( source, commandName, r, g, b ) 
    if ( tonumber ( b ) ) then 
        color = { tonumber ( r ), tonumber ( g ), tonumber ( b ) } 
        for id, player in ipairs( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
            destroyBlipsAttachedTo ( player ) 
            if ( players[player] ) then 
                createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
            else 
                createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
function setBlipColor ( source, commandName, r, g, b ) 
    if ( tonumber ( b ) ) then 
        destroyBlipsAttachedTo ( source ) 
        players[source] = { tonumber ( r ), tonumber ( g ), tonumber ( b ) } 
        createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
    end 
end 
  
addCommandHandler ( "setblipscolor", setBlipsColor ) 
addCommandHandler ( "setblipcolor", setBlipColor ) 
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", resourceRoot, onResourceStart ) 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerSpawn", root, onPlayerSpawn ) 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerQuit", root, onPlayerQuit ) 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerWasted", root, onPlayerWasted ) 
  
function destroyBlipsAttachedTo(player) 
    local attached = getAttachedElements ( player ) 
    if ( attached ) then 
        for k,element in ipairs(attached) do 
            if getElementType ( element ) == "blip" then 
                destroyElement ( element ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end 

where should i put this code

local r,g,b = getTeamColor(getPlayerTeam" class="kw2">getPlayerTeam" class="kw2">getPlayerTeam" class="kw2">getPlayerTeam(player)) 
  

[JR10]

you want to make the players blip color as his team color if one exists right?

You can put this

function onResourceStart ( resource ) 
    for id, player in ipairs( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
        if getPlayerTeam1(player) ~= nil then 
             local r, g, b = getTeamColor(getPlayerTeam1(player)) 
              createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, r,g,b ) 
         elseif ( players[player] ) then 
            createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
        else 
            createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
function onPlayerSpawn ( spawnpoint ) 
     if getPlayerTeam1(player) ~= nil then 
             local r, g, b = getTeamColor(getPlayerTeam1(player)) 
              createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, r,g,b ) 
     elseif ( players[source] ) then 
        createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
    else 
        createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
    end 
end 

you will find "1" near each getPlayerTeam remove it.

[Resmurf]

get a error" 'then' expected near 'kw2'

[JR10]

i fixed it check it again and dont forget to remove the "1" near each getPlayerTeam

[Resmurf]

Not working, theres no blips on the map.

[JR10]

any warnings? any errors? did you remove the "1" from each getPlayerTeam

[Resmurf]

yes i removed and no errors or warning

[JR10]

hmm i dont know but you can just set a timer that will get the player name tag color and set the blip color to it.

[Resmurf]

Anyone knows how to??

[JR10]

try this

function onResourceStart ( resource ) 
    for id, player in ipairs( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
        if getPlayerTeam1(player) ~= nil then 
             local r, g, b = getTeamColor(getPlayerTeam1(player)) 
              createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, r,g,b ) 
       else 
             elseif ( players[player] ) then 
                 createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
             else 
                 createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
            end 
       end 
end 
  
function onPlayerSpawn ( spawnpoint ) 
     if getPlayerTeam1(player) ~= nil then 
             local r, g, b = getTeamColor(getPlayerTeam1(player)) 
              createBlipAttachedTo ( player, 0, 2, r,g,b ) 
     else 
         elseif ( players[source] ) then 
             createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
        else 
             createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
        end 
end 

[Jaysds1]

[JR10]

[JR10]

dont add the numbers in the script

[Jaysds1]

he said that the script doesn't work with or without the numbers.

[Resmurf]

i removed and got the same error test it by urself

[JR10]

u just copied it f***cked up from here there is something wrong with getPlayerTeam using lua tags

so you must remove those kw2 from your script

[Resmurf]

use

[.code=text] [./code] please i just remove it or replace with something?

[Jaysds1]

ok I found the reason

try this:

  
function onResourceStart ( resource, client ) 
    for id, client in ipairs( getElementsByType ( "client" ) ) do 
        if getPlayerTeam" class="kw2">getPlayerTeam class="kw2">getPlayerTeam(client) ~= nil then 
             local r, g, b = getTeamColor(getPlayerTeam" class="kw2">getPlayerTeam" class="kw2">getPlayerTeam(client)) 
              createBlipAttachedTo ( client, 0, 2, r,g,b ) 
       else 
             elseif ( players[client] ) then 
                 createBlipAttachedTo ( client, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
             else 
                 createBlipAttachedTo ( client, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
            end 
       end 
end 
  
function onPlayerSpawn ( spawnpoint ) 
     if getPlayerTeam1(client) ~= nil then 
             local r, g, b = getTeamColor(getPlayerTeam1(client)) 
              createBlipAttachedTo ( client, 0, 2, r,g,b ) 
     else 
         elseif ( players[source] ) then 
             createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, players[source][1], players[source][2], players[source][3] ) 
        else 
             createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
        end 
end
