Col Shape

[Sparrow]

well, this is my first time I use col shape and the radar stuffs.

I've created a radar and a rectangle, this what I did, it didn't work.

local radar = createRadarArea(-466.317, -468.559, -150, -90, 255, 255, 0, 175) 
local colRectangle = createColRectangle(-466.317, -468.559, -150, -90) 
  
function onEnter(thePlayer) 
    if (getElementType(player) == "player") then 
        outputChatBox("You entered the zone, welcome.", thePlayer, 0, 255, 0) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", colRectangle, onEnter) 
  
function onExit(thePlayer) 
    if (getElementType(player) == "player") then 
        outputChatBox("You left the zone, good bye.", thePlayer, 0, 255, 0) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeLeave", colRectangle, onExit)

Try this:

  
local radar = createRadarArea(-466.317, -468.559, -150, -90, 255, 255, 0, 175) 
local colRectangle = createColRectangle(-466.317, -468.559, -150.0, -90.0) 
  
function onEnter(hitElement) 
    if (getElementType(hitElement) == "player") then 
        outputChatBox("You entered the zone, welcome.", hitElement, 0, 255, 0) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", colRectangle, onEnter) 
  
function onExit(hitElement) 
    if (getElementType(hitElement) == "player") then 
        outputChatBox("You left the zone, good bye.", hitElement, 0, 255, 0) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeLeave", colRectangle, onExit)

To prevent dimension problems and so on, you can try this:

local radar = createRadarArea(-466.317, -468.559, -150, -90, 255, 255, 0, 175) 
local colRectangle = createColRectangle(-466.317, -468.559, -150, -90) 
  
function onEnter(hitElement, matchingDimension) 
    if matchingDimension then 
        if (getElementType(player) == "player") then 
            outputChatBox("You entered the zone, welcome.", hitElement, 0, 255, 0) 
        end 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", colRectangle, onEnter) 
  
function onExit(hitElement, matchingDimension) 
    if matchingDimension then 
        if (getElementType(hitElement) == "player") then 
            outputChatBox("You left the zone, good bye.", hitElement, 0, 255, 0) 
        end 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeLeave", colRectangle, onExit)

didn't work, no erros on debug

local radar = createRadarArea(-466.317, -468.559, -150, -90, 255, 255, 0, 175) 
local colRectangle = createColRectangle(-466.317, -468.559, -150, -90) 
  
addEventHandler ( "onColShapeHit", root, 
     function ( element, dimension ) 
        if ( source == colRectangle and getElementType ( element ) == "player" ) then 
            outputChatBox ( "You entered the zone. Welcome!", element, 0, 255, 0, false ) 
        end 
     end

addEventHandler ( "onColShapeLeave", root,

            outputChatBox ( "You left the zone. Bye bye!", element, 0, 255, 0, false ) 
        end 
     end 
)

it didn't work, no erros on debug, also I try it client side (onClientColShapeHit/onClientColShapeLeave)

local uRadar = createRadarArea( -466.317, -468.559, -150, -90, 255, 255, 0, 175 ) 
local uRectangle = createColRectangle( -466.317, -468.559, -150, -90 ) 
  
function fColshapeManager ( uElement, bDim ) 
    if getElementType( uElement ) == 'player' then 
        outputChatBox(  
            eventName == 'onColShapeHit' and 'You entered the zone. Welcome!' or 
            eventName == 'onColShapeLeave' and 'You left the zone. Bye bye!', 
            uElement, 
            0, 
            255, 
            0

addEventHandler ( 'onColShapeHit',      uRectangle, fColshapeManager ) 
addEventHandler ( 'onColShapeLeave',    uRectangle, fColshapeManager )

still not working

Try test with development mode.

Try this:

local radar = createRadarArea(-466.317, -468.559, -150, -90, 255, 255, 0, 175) 
local colRectangle = createColRectangle(-466.317, -468.559, -150.0, -90.0) 
  
function onEnter(hitElement) 
    if (getElementType(hitElement) == "player" and source == colRectangle) then 
        outputChatBox("You entered the zone, welcome.", hitElement, 0, 255, 0) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", root, onEnter) 
  
function onExit(hitElement) 
    if (getElementType(hitElement) == "player" and source == colRectangle) then 
        outputChatBox("You left the zone, good bye.", hitElement, 0, 255, 0) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeLeave", root, onExit)

lol? You have only changed a simple things in my code. Same as mine dude, stop posting only to get better rank lol

[Castillo]

local uRadar = createRadarArea( -466.317, -468.559, -150, -90, 255, 255, 0, 175 ) 
local uRectangle = createColRectangle( -624, -563, 158, 95 ) 
  
function fColshapeManager ( uElement, bDim ) 
    if getElementType( uElement ) == 'player' then 
        outputChatBox( 
            eventName == 'onColShapeHit' and 'You entered the zone. Welcome!' or 
            eventName == 'onColShapeLeave' and 'You left the zone. Bye bye!', 
            uElement, 
            0, 
            255, 
            0 
        ) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ( 'onColShapeHit',      uRectangle, fColshapeManager ) 
addEventHandler ( 'onColShapeLeave',    uRectangle, fColshapeManager ) 

Your colshape wasn't the same size as the radar area, must be because of the negative values.

thanks castillo, it works.

[Castillo]

You're welcome.

I rewrited my code (Not your) and i not make it for "Better rank". Ranks unnecessary.
