why this didn't work?

[Sparrow]

why when I do this:

  
local getTeam = getTeamName (source) 
  

it comes error:

Bad 'team' pointer @ 'getTeamName'

[Kenix]

You should use source in event

Show full code.We don't know maybe your source player in event or team.

why when I do this:

  
local getTeam = getTeamName (source) 
  

it comes error:

Bad 'team' pointer @ 'getTeamName'

Try this :

    
 local team = getTeamFromName(teamname) 
    if team and getPlayerTeam(player) == team then 

[Sparrow]

my code:

  
function setMyTeam(source) 
    local getTeam = getTeamName (source) 
    if (getTeam) then 
        outputChatBox("Your team now is "..getTeamName..".", source, 0, 255, 0) 
    else 
        outputChatBox("Bara nayek.", source, 255, 0, 0) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ("setteam", setMyTeam) 
  

[Kenix]

function setMyTeam( player ) 
    local team = getPlayerTeam( player ) 
    if team then 
        outputChatBox( "Your team now is "..getTeamName( team )..".", player, 0, 255, 0 ) 
    else 
        outputChatBox( "Bara nayek.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "setteam", setMyTeam ) 
  

[Sparrow]

hm, I want it to set the player in team after he type /setteam

  
function setMyTeam( player ) 
    local team = getPlayerTeam( player ) 
    if team then 
        setPlayerTeam (player, team) 
        outputChatBox( "Your team now is "..getTeamName( team )..".", player, 0, 255, 0 ) 
    else 
        outputChatBox( "Bara nayek.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "setteam", setMyTeam ) 
  

it didn't set me in team.

[Kenix]

function setMyTeam( player,_,name ) 
    if name then 
        local team = getPlayerTeam( player ) 
        if not team then 
            if setPlayerTeam ( player, getTeamFromName( name ) ) then 
                outputChatBox( "Your team now is "..getTeamName( getPlayerTeam( player ) )..".", player, 0, 255, 0 ) 
            else 
                outputChatBox( "Can't set to team.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
            end  
        else 
            outputChatBox( "Alreadly in team.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        end 
    else 
        outputChatBox( "SYNTAX: /setteam [team name].", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
    end  
end 
addCommandHandler ( "setteam", setMyTeam ) 

[Sparrow]

this didn't work, no errors but in chatbox:

Error: 'Test' matches no players.

Alreadly in team.

Test is the team.

[GanJaRuleZ]

well , as far i know /setteam is an command , on freeroam servers...

So there are 2 scripts :

The command : Error:'Test' matches no players.

You're script : Aleardy in a team

[Kenix]

Show full code.

And try rename this cmd to set_team

[Sparrow]

this didn't work, I changed the command, but it says that I'm Alreadly in team

function setMyTeam( player,_,name ) 
    if name then 
        local team = getPlayerTeam( player ) 
        if not team then 
            if setPlayerTeam ( player, getTeamFromName( name ) ) then 
                outputChatBox( "Your team now is "..getTeamName( getPlayerTeam( player ) )..".", player, 0, 255, 0 ) 
            else 
                outputChatBox( "Can't set to team.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
            end  
        else 
            outputChatBox( "Alreadly in team.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        end 
    else 
        outputChatBox( "SYNTAX: /newteam [team name].", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
    end  
end 
addCommandHandler ( "newteam", setMyTeam ) 

[Castillo]

function setMyTeam( player, cmd, ... ) 
    local name = table.concat({...}, " ") 
    if (name and name ~= "") then 
        local team = getPlayerTeam( player ) 
        if (not team) then 
            if setPlayerTeam ( player, getTeamFromName( name ) ) then 
                outputChatBox( "Your team now is "..getTeamName( getPlayerTeam( player ) )..".", player, 0, 255, 0 ) 
            else 
                outputChatBox( "Can't set to team.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
            end  
        else 
            outputChatBox( "Alreadly in team.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        end 
    else 
        outputChatBox( "SYNTAX: /newteam [team name].", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
    end  
end 
addCommandHandler ( "changeteam", setMyTeam ) 

I think the command "/newteam" is part of the Admin panel, that's why I renamed it to "/changeteam".

[Sparrow]

didn't work

it still says that I'm Alreadly in team, and it didn't set my team to the new one.

[Castillo]

That's because you added to check for team..

function setMyTeam( player, cmd, ... ) 
    local name = table.concat({...}, " ") 
    if (name and name ~= "") then 
        local team = getPlayerTeam( player ) 
        if setPlayerTeam ( player, getTeamFromName( name ) ) then 
            outputChatBox( "Your team now is "..getTeamName( getPlayerTeam( player ) )..".", player, 0, 255, 0 ) 
        else 
            outputChatBox( "Can't set to team.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        end 
    else 
        outputChatBox( "SYNTAX: /newteam [team name].", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "changeteam", setMyTeam ) 

[Sparrow]

it's working now, thanks

[Castillo]

You're welcome.

[Sparrow]

another question please,

when I use /changeteam command, I get another team and I didn't get his skin,

so I must add

setElementModel (player, team) 

after

if setPlayerTeam ( player, getTeamFromName( name ) ) then 

[Castillo]

That make's no sense, "team" is a team-element, not a skin model.

[Sparrow]

I mean:

function setMyTeam( player, cmd, ... ) 
    local name = table.concat({...}, " ") 
    if (name and name ~= "") then 
        local team = getPlayerTeam( player ) 
        if setPlayerTeam ( player, getTeamFromName( name ) ) then 
            setElementModel (player, team) 
            outputChatBox( "Your team now is "..getTeamName( getPlayerTeam( player ) )..".", player, 0, 255, 0 ) 
        else 
            outputChatBox( "Access Denied.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        end 
    else 
        outputChatBox( "SYNTAX: /changeteam [team name].", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "changeteam", setMyTeam ) 

[Castillo]

What part don't you get? "team" is not a SKIN MODEL.

[Sparrow]

I mean when player do /changeteam he get the skin of that team...

E.g: /changeteam Army, he get the army skin (ID: 287)

[Castillo]

So, I guess you mean a table with team names and skins?

Like this:

local skins = { 
     ["Team 1"] = 299, 
     ["Team 2"] = 288, 
} 
  
function setMyTeam( player, cmd, ... ) 
    local name = table.concat({...}, " ") 
    if (name and name ~= "") then 
        local team = getPlayerTeam( player ) 
        if setPlayerTeam ( player, getTeamFromName( name ) ) then 
            setElementModel (player, tonumber(skins[getTeamName(getPlayerTeam(player))]) or 0) 
            outputChatBox( "Your team now is "..getTeamName( getPlayerTeam( player ) )..".", player, 0, 255, 0 ) 
        else 
            outputChatBox( "Access Denied.", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        end 
    else 
        outputChatBox( "SYNTAX: /changeteam [team name].", player, 255, 0, 0 ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "changeteam", setMyTeam )
