Hunter Reach Problem...

[GanJaRuleZ]

Hey all , i'm a new scripter...

I've got a script originaly made by fdc-invincible

This script is called hunter_alert

But there it's a problem... When some one got hunter it says once , when the second got the hunter , then it says again and so on.

It causes a very big spam.

Can anyone to make it say just one time?

Here its the script!

function someoneReachedHunter(number, sort, model) 
    if sort == "vehiclechange" and model == 425 then 
        outputChatBox ( getPlayerName(source).." #FF6464has gotten the hunter! Run!", getRootElement(), 255, 255, 255, true ) 
    end 
end 
addEvent("onPlayerPickUpRacePickup",true) 
addEventHandler("onPlayerPickUpRacePickup",getRootElement(),someoneReachedHunter) 
--end 
  
  

Thanks to everyone who helps me

Do you only want this to happen to ONE hunter in the game or all of them?

The info you are giving is very limited.

[GanJaRuleZ]

It happens every time a player gets hunter

I want it to say just one time , not hundred times..

Okay. There are many ways to prevent this.

The best way imo would be to:

  
function someoneReachedHunter(number, sort, model) 
    if sort == "vehiclechange" and model == 425 then 
        outputChatBox ( getPlayerName(source).." #FF6464has gotten the hunter! Run!", getRootElement(), 255, 255, 255, true ) 
    removeEventHandler("onPlayerPickUpRacePickup",getRootElement(),someoneReachedHunter) -- NOTE THIS LINE THAT REMOVES THE EVENT HANDLER! 
    end 
end 
addEvent("onPlayerPickUpRacePickup",true) 
addEventHandler("onPlayerPickUpRacePickup",getRootElement(),someoneReachedHunter) 
  

To make sure the eventHandler exists again for the next race, you could do.

This would add the event everytime the resource / race is started.

  
function enableHunterPickup() 
addEventHandler("onPlayerPickUpRacePickup",getRootElement(),someoneReachedHunter) 
end 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart",getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), enableHunterPickup) 
  

Telll me if you want another example.

Oh yeah.. Another thing. You dont have to use ' getRootElement() ', ' root ' works just the same.
