setElementData

[UAEpro]

function rankk() 
local gotexp2 = getElementData(source,"exp212") 
if gotexp2 == 1 then 
outputChatBox(gotexp2) 
outputChatBox("*sorry",source,0,255,0,true) 
else 
outputChatBox("ok",source,0,255,0,true) 
setElementData(source,"exp212",1) 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerWasted",getRootElement(),rankk) 
  
  
function new() 
  
setElementData(source,"exp212",0) 
alvw = getElementData(source,"exp212") 
outputChatBox(""..alvw) 
end 
addEvent("onMapStarting",true) 
addEventHandler("onMapStarting",getRootElement(),new) 

it always show "sorry"

idk why

another stupid problem

[UAEpro]

same

[Castillo]

Have you checked manually the data "exp212"?

[UAEpro]

1st getElementData(source,"exp212") must be nill

it will say sorry in the chatbox

then the value will be 1

so it will not say sorry again until another map start

but it's not working

function rankk( ) 
    local gotexp2 = tonumber( getElementData( source,"exp212" ) or 0 ) 
    if gotexp2 == 1 then -- you can use if some then instand of if ( some ) then 
        outputChatBox( tostring( gotexp2 ) ) -- gotexp2 is number value convert to string 
        --outputChatBox( "*sorry",source,0,255,0,true ) -- why true ? Need use false see in arguments function 
        outputChatBox( "*sorry",source,0,255,0 )  
    else 
        --outputChatBox("ok",source,0,255,0,false ) -- same 
        outputChatBox( "ok",source,0,255,0 ) 
        setElementData( source,"exp212",1 ) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler( "onPlayerWasted",root,rankk )  
  
function new( ) 
    setElementData( source,"exp212",0 ) 
    local alvw = getElementData( source,"exp212" ) -- variable alvw is number  
    outputChatBox( tostring( alvw ) ) -- convert to string 
end 
addEvent( "onMapStarting",true) 
addEventHandler( "onMapStarting",root,new ) 

SolidShake14,Your code is wrong ...

P.S Tabulate your code in next time.

P.S See in /debugscript 3

P.S Code updated.

[UAEpro]

the problem is not from the value or outputchatbox

..

i put outputchatbox to know what is the element

i just care about

(( if gotexp2 == 1 then ))

it's always 1 even when i change the value in onMapStarting

[Kenix]

/reconnect and try again.

Show full code.

That's just useless, true and false in outputChatBox will just enable and disable the HEX color codes.
