Argh bad argument

[mjau]

Hi im working on my spawnmenu and now i want to make it set a player to a specific team when he spawns but i get bad arguments

Heres the code wich should set the team

function setTeam(player) 
setPlayerTeam ( player, Army_Rangers ) 
end 
addEvent( "giveTeam", true ) 
addEventHandler( "giveTeam", getRootElement(), setTeam ) 

And this is waht calls it

function recruitSpawn(button,state) 
    if button == "left" and state == "up" then 
        triggerServerEvent("recruitMove",getLocalPlayer(),207.00390625,1865.75390625,13.140625,0,287) 
        triggerServerEvent("giveweapon",getLocalPlayer()) 
        triggerServerEvent("giveTeam",getLocalPlayer()) 
        closeWindow() 
        removecursor() 
      end 
end

local team  =createTeam(Army_Rangers) 
function setTeam(player) 
setPlayerTeam ( player, team ) 
end 
addEvent( "giveTeam", true ) 
addEventHandler( "giveTeam", getRootElement(), setTeam )

bandi, that makes no sense... createTeam has 4 arguments, teamName, red, green, blue.

Still bad arguments ths is the code now

armyteam = createTeam(Army_Rangers) 
function setTeam(player) 
setPlayerTeam ( player, armyteam ) 
end 
addEvent( "giveTeam", true ) 
addEventHandler( "giveTeam", getRootElement(), setTeam )

Of course that it makes bad arguments, you aren't creating the team at all.

armyteam = createTeam("Army_Rangers", 255, 255, 255) 
function setTeam(player) 
setPlayerTeam ( player, armyteam ) 
end 
addEvent( "giveTeam", true ) 
addEventHandler( "giveTeam", getRootElement(), setTeam ) 

Oh, and, the client side is wrong, aren't passing the 'player'.

function recruitSpawn(button,state) 
    if button == "left" and state == "up" then 
        triggerServerEvent("recruitMove",getLocalPlayer(),207.00390625,1865.75390625,13.140625,0,287) 
        triggerServerEvent("giveweapon",getLocalPlayer()) 
        triggerServerEvent("giveTeam",getLocalPlayer(),getLocalPlayer()) 
        closeWindow() 
        removecursor() 
      end 
end

Tnx and just cuz i wanna learn why do i need 2 getlocalplayer on the second one ?

[Castillo]

If you only put one, it'll send 'source', but not to the function (means example: function (source), that's wrong, 'source' won't appear in the function name).
