Absence2 Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Hello, I'm just wondering if it is possible to use OnPlayerJoin and OnPlayerQuit together with dxDrawText somehow, including other server sided functions, such as onPlayerStealthKill
Kenix Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 You want create if player quit or join draw it? Use: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/OnClientPlayerJoin https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/OnClientPlayerQuit

" has joined the server",618.0,6.0,795.0,27.0,tocolor(255,255,255,255),1.0,"default","left","top",false,false,false) end addEventHandler("onClientPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), remotePlayerJoin) end ) -- Direct X Drawing addEventHandler("onClientRender",root, function() function remotePlayerJoin() dxDrawText("* " .. getPlayerName(source) ..

Kenix Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Why you use it in event? local root = getRootElement() local rootChildren = getElementChildren( root ) root is predefined variable. viewtopic.php?f=91&t=39678 getRootElement is root
Absence2 Posted March 4, 2012 Author Posted March 4, 2012 Why you use it in event? local root = getRootElement() local rootChildren = getElementChildren( root ) root is predefined variable. viewtopic.php?f=91&t=39678 getRootElement is root I tested with and without it, both of them, separete and so on, always returned nil, wasn't sure what to do and left them in there.

drk Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I think this is more easy to understand... local join = '' local quit = '' addEventHandler('onClientRender',root, function() dxDrawText(join,x,y,width,height,color,size,font,left,top,clip,wordbreak,postGUI) dxDrawText(quit,x,y,width,height,color,size,font,left,top,clip,wordbreak,postGUI) end ) addEventHandler('onClientPlayerJoin',root, function() join = getPlayerName(source).." has joined the game!" setTimer( function() join = '' end, 5000,1) end ) addEventHandler('onClientPlayerQuit',root, function(reason) quit = getPlayerName(source).." has left the game!

Absence2 Posted March 4, 2012 Author Posted March 4, 2012 It's really hard to test this script without anyone around ._.

I have to try for like ages until I get it right PLUS I have to test when players login or quit, so it's very hard

Absence2 Posted March 4, 2012 Author Posted March 4, 2012 Oh, okay, fantastic but I'm still worried about the resolution, or should it work fine on any resolution?
Kenix Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Just use my function. function dxDrawRelativeText( text,posX,posY,right,bottom,color,scale,mixed_font,alignX,alignY,clip,wordBreak,postGUI ) local resolutionX = 1280 local resolutionY = 1024 local sWidth,sHeight = guiGetScreenSize( ) return dxDrawText( tostring( text ), ( posX/resolutionX )*sWidth, ( posY/resolutionY )*sHeight, ( right/resolutionX )*sWidth, ( bottom/resolutionY)*sHeight, color,( sWidth/resolutionX )*scale, mixed_font, alignX, alignY, clip, wordBreak, postGUI ) end The arguments are the same as in dxDrawText.

Oh, like this then: local sText = '' local uTimer addEventHandler ( 'onClientPlayerJoin', root, function() sText = sText..string.format( '#FFFFFFServer: #FFFFFF%s has joined the server (%s) \n',getPlayerName( source ) ) if isTimer( uTimer ) then killTimer( uTimer ) end uTimer = setTimer( function( ) sText = '' end, 5000, 1 ) end ) addEventHandler( 'onClientRender', root, function( ) if sText ~= '' then dxDrawRelativeText( sText,388.0,134.0,558.0,163.0,tocolor(255,255,255,255),1.0,"default","left","top",false,false,false) dxDrawRelativeRectangle( 631.0,7.0,160.0,20.0,tocolor( 0,0,0,150 ),false ) end end ) Also the onClientPlayerJoin, doesn't work, it gave error at line 34 about the string format (I can't login atm so I can't check exactly >.<)
Kenix Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) Yes, because you change it. sText = sText..string.format( '#FFFFFFServer: #FFFFFF%s has left the server (%s) \n',getPlayerName( source ), quitReason ) Example: print( string.format( "I am %s. I going %s",'Kenix','finish my votemanager.' ) ) Output: I am Kenix. I going finish my votemanager. You use Example print( string.format( "I am %s, going %s",'Kenix' ) ) Output: bad argument #3 to 'format' (no value) Because you not use 2 regular expression.
