onPlayerChat MessageType 2

[BriGhtx3]

I'm trying to put out the message of the teamchat, but I can't switch to messageType 2.

function cheata (text,msType) 
if msType == 2 then 
    outputChatBox(msType) 
    outputChatBox(text) 
end 
end 
addEventHandler( "onPlayerChat", getRootElement(), cheata ) 

So when I press "y" and type in the message then the message isn't outputed. When I change the msType to 0 it puts the message out. The question is, how do I detect the message of the teamchat?

function cheata ( text,msType ) 
    if msType == 2 then 
        outputChatBox( tostring( msType ) ) 
        outputChatBox( text ) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler( "onPlayerChat", root, cheata ) 

Because variable msType is number and you can't output in function outputChatBox.You need convert number to string see arguments in function https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/OutputChatBox

You didn't read the question -.-

I want to detect if the player uses the teamchat and output his message and not change the type to string.

The problem is that he doesn't detect whether it is the teamchat or not.

[Kenix]

If it not use convert number to string in function outputChatBox then it created a error in script.

Just test my code and see.

Idk what you mean "detect" you can see him message in log file or create onPlayerChat event create a outputDebugString or outputServerLog.

I tested it. It already outputs the messageType without the tostring when the type is 0, but it doesn't output it WHEN THE TYPE IS TEAMMESSAGE

It works perfectly, BUT you must be in a TEAM.

Ehm then how can I use the y-chat for a faction chat? So that I bind the y-key to my chat function.

Explain better

So here I've got a function :

function teamsay_all(player,cmd, ...) 
local FRank = tonumber(destinyGetData (player,"rang")) 
local parametersTable = {...} 
local text = table.concat( parametersTable, " " ) 
local ranktitle = "" 
  
    if destinyGetData(player,"fraktion") == 1 then 
        if FRank == 0 then ranktitle = "Constable" end 
        if FRank == 1 then ranktitle = "Captian" end 
        if FRank == 2 then ranktitle = "Marshall" end 
        if FRank == 3 then ranktitle = "Commander" end 
        if FRank == 4 then ranktitle = "Bureau Chief" end 
        if FRank == 5 then ranktitle = "Chief of Department" end 
        red = 0 
        green = 0 
        blue = 205 
    else 
        triggerClientEvent ( player, "infobox", getRootElement(), "Du bist in keiner Fraktion!", 5000, 155, 0, 0 ) 
    end 
    for playeritem, index in pairs(fraktionsMemb[destinyGetData(player,"fraktion")]) do 
        outputChatBox ( "[[ "..ranktitle.." | "..getPlayerName(player)..": "..text.." ]]", playeritem, red, green, blue ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("t",teamsay_all) 

Now I want to use that function for the y-chat. So I used this code :

function cheata (text,msType) 
    if msType == 2 then 
executeCommandHandler("t",source,text) 
end 
end 
addEventHandler( "onPlayerChat", getRootElement(), cheata ) 

But it doesn't work

When I use /t it works.

[Kenix]

Try

function cheata (text,msType) 
    if msType == 2 then 
executeCommandHandler("t",source,_,text) 
end 
end 
addEventHandler( "onPlayerChat", getRootElement(), cheata ) 

Test it and see in debug.

[Castillo]

addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin",root, 
function () 
    bindKey(source, "y", "down", "chatbox", "Faction Chat") 
end) 
  
addEventHandler("onResourceStart",resourceRoot, 
function () 
    for index, player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
        bindKey(player, "y", "down", "chatbox", "FactionChat") 
    end 
end) 
  
function factionChat(player,cmd,...) 
    local message = table.concat ( {...}, " " ) 
    if(message ~= nil or message ~= "") then 
        local name = getPlayerName(player) 
        outputChatBox(tostring(name) ..": ".. tostring(message)) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("FactionChat",factionChat) 

This will overwrite the "Team say" with "FactionChat".

[BriGhtx3]

Oh okay

Thank you

[Castillo]

You can also try this:

addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin",root, 
function () 
    bindKey(source, "y", "down", "chatbox", "Faction Chat") 
end) 
  
addEventHandler("onResourceStart",resourceRoot, 
function () 
    for index, player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
        bindKey(player, "y", "down", "chatbox", "FactionChat") 
    end 
end) 
  
function factionChat(player,cmd,...) 
    local message = table.concat ( {...}, " " ) 
    if(message ~= nil or message ~= "") then 
        local FRank = tonumber(destinyGetData (player,"rang")) 
        local ranktitle = "" 
        if destinyGetData(player,"fraktion") == 1 then 
            if FRank == 0 then ranktitle = "Constable" end 
            if FRank == 1 then ranktitle = "Captian" end 
            if FRank == 2 then ranktitle = "Marshall" end 
            if FRank == 3 then ranktitle = "Commander" end 
            if FRank == 4 then ranktitle = "Bureau Chief" end 
            if FRank == 5 then ranktitle = "Chief of Department" end 
            red = 0 
            green = 0 
            blue = 205 
        else 
            triggerClientEvent ( player, "infobox", getRootElement(), "Du bist in keiner Fraktion!", 5000, 155, 0, 0 ) 
        end 
        local name = getPlayerName(player) 
        for playeritem, index in pairs(fraktionsMemb[destinyGetData(player,"fraktion")]) do 
            outputChatBox ( "[[ "..ranktitle.." | "..tostring(name)..": "..tostring(message).." ]]", playeritem, red, green, blue ) 
        end      
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("FactionChat",factionChat) 

To see if it works with your faction system.

It already works with my Faction System
