Question About Scripting

[rublisk19]

Hi i have question . Is there any way to make command like example setAccountData so i wan't make setHouseData and setCarData thanks for replies. So setAccountData saves accounts setHouseData would save house data and setCarData would save car data

[myonlake]

Yes, it's possible.

You need to use MySQL or SQLite for saving those stuff.

[rublisk19]

so no other way ? addEvent won't work ?

[Klesh]

It's posible but setting the data:

function myHouse (thePlayer....) 
-- --  
---- 
setElement(thePlayer"house.data") 
--- 
end 
  
function getMyHouse (thePlayer) 
getElementData(thePlayer"house.data") 
-- 
-- 
end 

Also you can try with db:

It's posible but setting the data:

function myHouse (thePlayer....) 
-- --  
---- 
setElement(thePlayer"house.data") 
--- 
end 
  
function getMyHouse (thePlayer) 
getElementData(thePlayer"house.data") 
-- 
-- 
end 

so this data let save in it like id user price etc ?

[Klesh]

That data will save the current function you are creating:

function housePrice (thePlayer) 
-----Complete your code 
setElementData(thePlayer, "price.data") 
end 

I recomendete to you, use database, is stored on the db, more effective, try to start learn if you don't know.

Hmmm , as far i know scripting , that will not save an data + it saves for the element.

As far , you must make for all the houses\cars , and another function

I think you want to make it trought an command so it will be like

  
--House script here 
  
function buyTheHouse() 
  local account = getPlayerAccount ( thePlayer ) 
  if isGuestAccount ( account ) then 
   outputChatBox ( " You need to register in order to buy the house" , getRootElement() ) 
  else 
    setAccountData ( account , "ownHouse1" , playerHouse ) 
    takePlayerMoney ( source , 2000 ) -- Here you can set your own price 
  end 
end  
addCommandHandler ( "buyHouse1", buyTheHouse ) 
  

Maybe im wrong . Btw , you must do for all the house this way..

So what you have to do

What you need to do!

1.Make Markers , and you should script : when the player hits the marker , it gets the data, remember , different data for every house!

2.When the player hits the marker , and the house belongs him , then he enters in a int.

Like that ?

function setHouseData(element, data, value) 
    if element and value then 
        setElementData(element, "house-data-"..data, value) 
    else 
        return false 
    end 
end 
  
function setCarData(element, data, value) 
    if element and value then 
        setElementData(element, "car-data-"..data, value) 
    else 
        return false 
    end 
end 

[rublisk19]

something but not this . here my dream

function playerExit() 
setAccountData (account, "money", getElementData(source, "MONEY")) 
setHouseData (house, "id", getElementData(source, "houseid")) 
setCarData (car, "id", getElementData(source, "carid")) 

something like i posted

[Castillo]

I don't get it, you want to save the player house when quit? if not, then I'm confused.

[BinSlayer1]

so you'd expect to use a house element for setting? I don't think you can store that in sql so I guess you should just give each house a name or so as a correspondence because the following code works like this setHouseData(string HouseName, string Data)

Note: There is no getHouseData. Make it yourself

Note2: Might be some errors since I made it on the spot

executeSQLCreateTable('houseData', 'dataName TEXT, value TEXT') 
function setHouseData(houseName, save) 
    if not houseName or not save then return end 
    local sql = executeSQLQuery("SELECT dataName, value FROM houseData WHERE dataName = '"..houseName.."'") 
    if #sql == 0 then 
        executeSQLInsert("houseData", "'"..houseName.."', '"..save.."'") 
    else  --data was already set, I'm overriding it, but maybe you'll need some checks here  
        executeSQLUpdate("houseData", "dataName = '"..houseName.."'", "value = '"..save.."'") 
    end 
end

A small heads up -script for you.

Things you need to do yourself:

- Find the account from the XML file and save it to the same child. Do not let it always make a new child.

- Give you information on player connect and fetch your money and houses/vehicles.

Tested and working. Only thing you need to do is the above thing.

local xml_file = "data.xml" 
  
function findPlayer(name, player) 
    local matches = {} 
    for i, v in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
        if getPlayerName(v) == name then 
            return v 
        end 
        local playerName = getPlayerName(v):gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x", "") 
        playerName = playerName:lower() 
        if playerName:find(name:lower(), 0) then 
            table.insert(matches, v) 
        end 
    end 
    if #matches == 1 then 
        return matches[1] 
    else 
        outputChatBox("Found " .. #matches .. " players with that partial name.", player, 220, 220, 0, true) 
    end 
    return false 
end

nice myonlake how you store your info in rp ?

[myonlake]

How do I store info in my own gamemode? It's MySQL.
