We do not make scripts for you, but we can give you a helping hand.

Here are some functions you need.

If your try is not working, show it to us.

addEventHandler -- Event handler 
createMarker -- The marker 
outputChatBox -- For to show you the messages when you open/close the marker 
addCommandHandler -- Open/close command 
setElementPosition -- Set the player's position 
setElementInterior -- To change the interior of the player 
setElementDimension -- To change the dimension of the player 
destroyElement -- To destroy the marker on the close command 

[Ralf122]

i don't know how to start.

[BriGhtx3]

Lol, then read the wiki and learn how to start

[denny199]

u meaning this?:

-- serverside

function hit ( player ) 
setElementPosition ( player, x, y, z ) -- put your'e own position in it 
setElementDimension ( player, dimensionidhere ) -- dimensionid here 
setElementInterior ( player, intID ) -- interior id here 
end 
  
function open () 
local marker = createMarker ( x, y, z )  -- put your'e own position in it where you wanna have the marker 
outputChatBox ( "The deathmatch arena is open!" ) 
addEventHandler ( "onMarkerHit", marker, hit ) 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "opendeatmatch", open ) 
  
function close () 
outputChatBox ( "The deathmatch arena is closed!" ) 
destroyElement ( marker ) 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "closedeatmatch", close )

that's completely non-related

[Ralf122]

i made something i think it's not very well.

function goToplayer(source) 
        local x,y,z = getElementPosition(cH) 
        setElementPosition(source, x, y, z + 15) 
    --end 
end 
addCommandHandler("warpto", goToPlayer) 

i didn't know how to make the accept part.

[denny199]

[lua]local x,y,z = getElementPosition(cH)

lua]

Who cH ? give arguments like: ch = getLocalPlayer()

[Ralf122]

huh?

[12p]

huh?

What does "cH" means? Is it a player element? Or isn't defined?

[Ralf122]

it has to be player element but i think it's wrong.

[denny199]

  
function warp( player, command, who ) 
    local target = getPlayerFromName ( who )                 
    if ( target ) then                                       
local x,y,z = getElementPosition ( target ) 
setElementPosition( player, x, y, z ) 
end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "warp", warp ) 
  
  

[Ralf122]

now the accept or decline part, i didn't know how to do it, maybe some of you know it?

and tnx denny199

[12p]

Accept or decline? Be more specific.

[Ralf122]

Well if the player wants to warp a person /warpto, then something in the chat or a little gui has to appear where the person can accept or decline the warp command.

I think that's stupid. Why would the player use /warpto if (s)he doesn't want to warp?

[karlis]

its asked for the player that you warp to.

Oh. ROFL.

what's the point of gui editing?Thats not the issue.

Not editing; creating. If he wants GUI he must do it.

so many messages and noone even started to explain the logic behind teleport request/confirmation

True, Aibo.

Dude, just use a GUI Editor tool (like "QtDesignerLite + QtToLua" or "GUI Editor"), then use GUI Click event handler: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Client_Scripting_Events#GUI_events

addEventHandler 

For using the events.

[Castillo]

local invitations = {} 
  
addCommandHandler("warpto", 
function (thePlayer, cmd, who) 
    if (not who or who == "") then outputChatBox("/"..cmd..": No player inserted.",thePlayer,255,0,0) return end 
    local player = getPlayerFromName(who) 
    if (not player) then outputChatBox("/"..cmd..": This player does not exists.",thePlayer,255,0,0) return end 
    if (invitations[thePlayer]) then outputChatBox("/"..cmd..": You already sent a warp invitation.",thePlayer,255,0,0) return end 
    outputChatBox(getPlayerName(player) .." want's to warp to you, write /accept ".. getPlayerName(thePlayer) ..".",player,0,255,0) 
    outputChatBox("You have sent a warp invitation to ".. getPlayerName(player) ..".",player,0,255,0) 
    invitations[thePlayer] = player 
    setTimer(function () invitations[thePlayer] = nil end, 60000, 1) 
end) 
  
addCommandHandler("accept", 
function (thePlayer, cmd, who) 
    if (not who or who == "") then outputChatBox("/"..cmd..": No player inserted.",thePlayer,255,0,0) return end 
    local player = getPlayerFromName(who) 
    if (not player) then outputChatBox("/"..cmd..": This player does not exists.",thePlayer,255,0,0) return end 
    if invitations[player] then 
        setElementPosition(player, getElementPosition(thePlayer)) 
        outputChatBox("You have accepted ".. getPlayerName(player) .."'s warp invitation.",thePlayer,0,255,0) 
        outputChatBox(getPlayerName(thePlayer) .. " accepted your warp invitation.",player,0,255,0) 
        invitations[player] = nil 
    end 
end)
