SnoopCat Scripting Problems.

Scooby · December 13, 2011

just store the players money from getPlayerMoney in a variable every 1 second with a timer, then use this variable in your function in onClientRender, that way, it will show however much the player has on his hud every frame without calling the function every frame.

something like this:

local root = getRootElement() 
local cash 
  
function updateCashVar() 
    cash = getPlayerMoney() 
end 
  
function scriptStarted() 
    setTimer(updateCashVar,1000,0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), scriptStarted) 
  
function drawSpectators() 
    local textX = x - spectatorSettings.xOffset 
    local textY = spectatorSettings.yOffset 
    dxDrawText("MIRANDO: "..tostring(#spectators), textX - 0.2, textY - 0.2, x, y, tocolor(0, 0, 0, 255), 0.4, "bankgothic") 
    drawColor("#00FF00MIRANDO: #ffffff"..tonumber(#spectators), textX, textY, x, y, tocolor(83, 134, 139), 0.4, "bankgothic") 
    dxDrawText("FPS: "..tostring(getElementData(getLocalPlayer(), "fps")), textX - 0.2, textY + 15 - 0.2, x, y, tocolor(0, 0, 0, 255), 0.4, "bankgothic") 
    drawColor("#00FF00FPS: #ffffff"..tostring(getElementData(getLocalPlayer(), "fps")), textX, textY + 15, x, y, tocolor(15, 192, 252, 255), 0.4, "bankgothic") 
    dxDrawText("$: "..tostring(cash), textX - 0.2, textY + 15 + 15 - 0.2, x, y, tocolor(0, 0, 0, 255), 0.4, "bankgothic") 
    drawColor("#00FF00$: #ffffff"..tostring(cash), textX, textY + 15 + 15, x, y, tocolor(15, 192, 252, 255), 0.4, "bankgothic") 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,drawSpectators)

sorry but i dont have time to test it.

Nope, you are not.

Remember: when LUA tags are used, every highlighted text is a function. You must click them

triggerClientEvent

But getPlayerMoney is for "default" GTA cash. I dont know the race starter but sure u need getElementData or getAccountData.

Made the script server side for get money with event onPlayerSpawn and trig client for dx or GUI element.

hello i have another problem. i need to move 2 objects when hitting a marker, this is what i did.

BinSlayer1 · December 17, 2011

line 16 , use elseif instead of else if (because you only have 1 end for the whole if and if u want to make 2 ifs then u need 2 ends)

lines 15, 19 are bugged because that is NOT the correct syntax of setTimer

what doesnt work? They dont move?

setTimer(moveObject, 20000,1, asd2,100000, 5906.5 , 3386.6000976563 , 16.200000762939)

Try that^

WTF ? Why it's on server side?!

dxDrawTexte Client-only function

Edit: Hm dude... if in the map have multiple hunter pickup I think it will create multiple dxDrawText

can someone help me to fix it?

soo like this?

Server side:

function someoneReachedHunter(number, sort, model)

        dxDrawText("HUNTER ENCONTRADO!",226.0,637.0,625.0,671.0,"bankgothic","left","top",false,false,false) 
        triggerClientEvent ( thePlayer, "text", getRootElement() ) 
setTimer ( someoneReachedHunter, 5000, 1 ) 
    end 
end 
addEvent("onPlayerPickUpRacePickup",true) 
addEventHandler("onPlayerPickUpRacePickup",getRootElement(),someoneReachedHunter) 
end

Client

  
function text 
dxDrawText("HUNTER ENCONTRADO!",226.0,637.0,625.0,671.0,"bankgothic","left","top",false,false,false)

meta.xml

    
        "Hunter_Alert" author="SnoopCat" type="script" version="1.1" />

is thta correct?
