Ped

[joedajoester]

Hi, i need a ped to be invincible so no one can kill it. The freeze function sucks severely.

function getPlayerFromPartOfName(playerPart) 
  local pl = getPlayerFromName(playerPart) 
  if isElement(pl) then 
    return pl 
  else 
    for i,v in ipairs (getElementsByType ("player")) do 
      if (string.find(getPlayerName(v),playerPart)) then 
        return v 
      end 
    end 
  end 
end 
  
function Jail (player, command, name) 
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user."..getAccountName(getPlayerAccount(player)), aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
    local thePlayer = getPlayerFromPartOfName(name) 
    if not thePlayer then return end 
    if getElementData( thePlayer, "isJailed") then outputChatBox("This player is already in jail.",player,255,0,0) return end 
    setElementData(thePlayer, "jailSkin", getElementModel ( thePlayer )) 
    setElementModel ( thePlayer, 22 ) 
    setElementPosition ( thePlayer, 52, 2483, 21 ) 
    takeAllWeapons ( getRootElement() ) 
    setElementData ( thePlayer, "isJailed", true ) 
    outputChatBox (name.." has been jailed", getRootElement(), 255, 0, 0, true ) 
    else 
    outputChatBox ("You cannot use this command!", player, 255, 0, 0, true ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("jail",Jail) 
  
function Unjail (player, command, name) 
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user."..getAccountName(getPlayerAccount(player)), aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
    local thePlayer = getPlayerFromPartOfName(name) 
    if not thePlayer then return end 
    if not getElementData( thePlayer, "isJailed") then outputChatBox("This player is not in jail.",player,255,0,0) return end 
    setElementPosition ( thePlayer, 72, 2484, 16.3 ) 
    setElementModel ( thePlayer, tonumber(getElementData(thePlayer,"jailSkin"))) 
    setElementData ( thePlayer, "isJailed", false ) 
    outputChatBox (name.." has been unjailed. Be good now, "..name, getRootElement(), 0, 255, 0, true ) 
    else 
    outputChatBox ("You cannot unjail yourself!", player, 255, 0, 0, true ) 
    end 
 end 
addCommandHandler("unjail",Unjail) 
  
ped1inside = createPed ( 71, 69, 2503, 17)                     
setElementFrozen (ped1inside, false ) 
setPedRotation (ped1inside, 180)

Check my resource, it may be useful for you: https://community.multitheftauto.com/index.php?p= ... ls&id=1604

[joedajoester]

How do i use your resource??

[12p]

Read description.

[joedajoester]

I did and i tried running those things and nothing happened

[12p]

Show me.

[joedajoester]

run setElementInvulnerable ( ped1inside, state)

run setElementInvulnerable ( ped1inside, alive)

not sure what state is

[12p]

state is a BOOLEAN.

Use "true" or "false".

[joedajoester]

run setElementInvulnerable ( ped1inside, true)

this doesnt work ingame

[Castillo]

Is an exported function from Benxamix's resource, so you have to use it like this:

exports[resourceName]:setElementInvulnerable(element, boolean) 

The resourceName is the name of the resource which has the function: setElementInvulnerable.

[joedajoester]

OMG this still doesnt work..

/run exports[invincibleped]:setElementInvulnerable(ped1inside, true)

[12p]

Why don't you call the function from a script?

[Castillo]

OMG this still doesnt work..

/run exports[invincibleped]:setElementInvulnerable(ped1inside, true)

Wrong.

/run exports["invincibleped"]:setElementInvulnerable(ped1inside, true) 

[12p]

Easier.

/run exports.invincibleped:setElementInvulnerable(ped1inside, true)

(Wth is my resource called "invincibleped" lol?)

[joedajoester]

Exports: call to non-running server resource (nil) [string "?"]

the resource is running thou

[Castillo]

Check the resource name, it must be the same, upper case, lower case.

[joedajoester]

Its all the same. i copied and pasted it even.

[Jaysds1]

ok, try restarting it and the new resource that you've recently downloaded

[joedajoester]

I restarted it all and nothing. i get false boolean

[Jaysds1]

"false boolean" from what line or function?

The export thing?

[joedajoester]

never mind is it possible to make a timer to re spawn the ped after 1 minute?

[Jaysds1]

lol, ya, use:

  
function respawn() 
if (getElementModel(localplayer) == THEMODELID) then 
x,y,z = getElementPosition(localplayer) 
rot = getElementRotation(localplayer) 
setTimer(createPed,60000,1,THEMODELID,x,y,z,rot) 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientPedWasted",getRootElement(),respawn) 

[joedajoester]

this doesnt work i get no error

It works, but the dead body is on the ground lol can it destroyElement onPedWasted?
