[SnoopCat]

hi mi problem is i want to do sky color, car color and water color change randmly but degraded. and its not doing nothing...

can someone says me what im doing wrong or just help me?

        addEventHandler("onClientResourceStop", getRootElement(), 
            function() 
               resetWaterColor() 
               resetSkyGradient() 
               resetVehicleColor() 
            end) 
      
    addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
           function water() 
setWaterColor(math.random (0,255), math.random (0,255), math.random (0,255)) 
end 
setTimer ( water, 275, 0 ) 
  
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", root, water ) 
  
      
    addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
            function() 
               setSkyGradient( 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ) 
        ) 
            end) 
  
setTimer(setSkyGradient, 275, 0 ) 
      
  
function randomVehColors() 
    for i, car in ipairs( getElementsByType( "vehicle" ) ) do 
        local color = {} 
        color[1] = math.random(0,255)  
        color[2] = math.random(0,255) 
        color[3] = math.random(0,255) 
        color[4] = math.random(0,255) colors 
        setVehicleColor ( 411, color[1], color[2], color[3], color[4] )  
    end 
end 
  
setTimer( randomVehColors, 275, 0 )

u have to specify only 3args in vehicle colors, if u want 1st color rgb, plus syntax error at line 38

[Cadu12]

and 14 lines. change it to "onClientResourceStart"

[zorrigas]

onResourceStart 

is ServerSide event, cant runit on ClientSide, Bad Copy Paste.

setVehicleColor(VEHICLE NO ID, color1,color2,color3,color4) 

[SnoopCat]

this is what i do now and is nto working

i place dit server side and i do this:

    addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
            function() 
               resetWaterColor() 
               resetSkyGradient() 
               resetVehicleColor() 
            end) 
      
    addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
           function water() 
setWaterColor(math.random (0,255), math.random (0,255), math.random (0,255)) 
end 
setTimer ( water, 275, 0 ) 
  
addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", root, water ) 
  
      
    addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
            function() 
               setSkyGradient( 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ) 
        ) 
            end) 
  
setTimer(setSkyGradient, 275, 0 ) 
      
  
function randomVehColors() 
    for i, car in ipairs( getElementsByType( "vehicle" ) ) do 
        local color = {} 
        color[1] = math.random(0,255) 
        color[2] = math.random(0,255) 
        color[3] = math.random(0,255) 
        setVehicleColor ( infernus, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
    end 
end 
  
setTimer( randomVehColors, 275, 0 )

Are you using Server-side? If so, change to client-side.

resetWaterColor and setWaterColor is only for client-side

Edit:

Or you can use trigger

[zorrigas]

resetWaterColor and setWaterColor is only for client-side

you are bad. resetWaterColor and setWaterColor is Client and Server function on 1.1!

all functions work in serverside but have a bad elements.

  
for i, car in ipairs( getElementsByType( "vehicle" ) ) do 
        ....... 
        setVehicleColor ( car, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
    end 
end 
  

PD for SnoopCat: Fuga ahora no puedes decir que no te ayude, deja de hacer copy paste de scripts y lee el wiki!

[SnoopCat]

i have to use server side or client side to make this script???? im confused

[karlis]

try specifying all 12 color arguments(rgb for 4colors)

use serverside if want it synced, clientside, if want unsynced

[SnoopCat]

soo i have made this for server side.... its ok?

  
  addEventHandler("onResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
  
           function water() 
setWaterColor(math.random (0,255), math.random (0,255), math.random (0,255)) 
end 
setTimer ( water, 275, 0 ) 
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", root, water ) 
  
      
    addEventHandler("onResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
            function() 
               setSkyGradient( 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ), 
            math.random( 0, 255 ) 
        ) 
            end) 
  
setTimer(setSkyGradient, 275, 0 ) 
      
  
function randomVehColors() 
    for i, car in ipairs( getElementsByType( "vehicle" ) ) do 
        local color = {} 
        color[1] = math.random(0,255) 
        color[2] = math.random(0,255) 
        color[3] = math.random(0,255) 
        setVehicleColor ( car, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
    end 
end 
  
setTimer( randomVehColors, 275, 0 )  

pd its not working on the sv

[karlis]

1)im not sure how mta detects, is it rgb, or color id, kinda think problem is there.try AT LEAST 2sets of rgb.

2)root is defined?

3)getElementsByType 4times a second is very expensive, don't call it that often.

[SnoopCat]

what u mean whit point 2 and 3?

Working Script, ServerSide, not tested but should work [1.1]

to many timers, all functions on 1 timer viewtopic.php?f=91&t=36202&p=373313#p373310
