Making stats/info system but a small problem

[mjau]

Hi i have decided to make a stats system and as far i have come it works but now there is a problem

The probmlem is that ive added some things to get like serial ip health ad others but it shows false in the gui

if you're setting from server and getting the data in client only once on script start there's a chance it is not properly synced yet.

try moving your getElementData part inside stats() function.

Another problem The healh and armor shows 0 wahtever i do

function bindTheKeys() 
bindKey ( "F2", "down", openGui )  
bindKey ( "F2", "up", closeGui )  
bindKey ( "F2", "down", stats )  
end 
addCommandHandler ( "bindme", bindTheKeys ) 
  
  
function stats() 
local ping = getElementData (getLocalPlayer(), "ping") 
local ip = getElementData (getLocalPlayer(), "ip") 
local serial = getElementData (getLocalPlayer(), "serial") 
local health = getElementData (getLocalPlayer(), "health") 
local armour = getElementData (getLocalPlayer(), "armour") 
  
  
guiSetText(GUIEditor_Label[4], "Serial: " ..tostring(serial).. "  " ,true, GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
guiSetText(GUIEditor_Label[3], "Ping: " ..tostring(ping).. "  " ,true, GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
guiSetText(GUIEditor_Label[5], "IP: " ..tostring(ip).. "  " ,true, GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
guiSetText(GUIEditor_Label[1], "Health: " ..tostring(health).. "  " ,true, GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
guiSetText(GUIEditor_Label[2], "Armour: " ..tostring(armour).. "  " ,true, GUIEditor_Window[1]) 
end 
  
  
function openGui() 
infoGui() 
end 
  
function closeGui() 
guiSetVisible ( GUIEditor_Window[1], false ) 
end

Try this server-side:

  
    addEventHandler("onPlayerSpawn",root, 
    function() 
    setElementData(source,"ping",getPlayerPing(source)) 
    setElementData(source,"health",getPlayerMoney(source)) 
    setElementData(source,"ip",getPlayerIP(source)) 
    setElementData(source,"serial",getPlayerSerial(source)) 
    setElementData(source,"armour",getPedArmor(source)) 
    end )

because your element data is not synced. you set it only once, on player join (i assume he has 0 armor at that time) and never update it.

also there's no real need for setting armor as element data, you can use getPedArmor() both in client and server to get the current armor value.

PS: just noticed, why getPlayerMoney() goes into health variable?

But if i use settimer and infinite repeats it will work then ?

[Aibo]

why do you want to sync things in element data that are already synced by MTA? too much spare bandwidth?

[mjau]

nah just a bit lazy guy anyway i will try to do the health and armor clientsided
