How to get a player who shoots at the car.

[Jaysds1]

you could use: onClientPlayerWeaponFire after getting what the client/player shot at, use

addEventHandler("onClientPlayerWeaponFire",localPlayer,function() 
   if(getElementType(hitElement)=="vehicle)"then 
      --YOUR CODE 
   end 
end)

How to get a player who shoots at the car.

Client side !!

function onClientPlayerWeaponFireFunc(weapon, ammo, ammoInClip, hitX, hitY, hitZ, hitElement ) 
    if getElementType(hitElement)=="Vehicle" then 
         outputChatBox (..getPlayerName(getLocalPlayer()).."np shot car",getRootElement(), 0, 255, 0 )  
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientPlayerWeaponFire", getLocalPlayer(), onClientPlayerWeaponFireFunc )

Your code is wrong Booo.

addEventHandler ( 'onClientPlayerWeaponFire', root, 
    function ( _, _, _, _, _, _, uHit ) 
        if ( getElementType ( uHit ) == 'vehicle' ) then 
            outputChatBox ( getPlayerName ( source ) .. ' shooted on ' .. getPlayerName ( getPedOccupiedVehicle ( uHit ) ), 255, 255, 255, false ) 
        end 
    end 
)

@Michael#: You're wrong as well, outputChatBox client side doesn't has a visibleTo argument.

-- client side:

addEventHandler ( "onClientPlayerWeaponFire", root, 
    function ( _, _, _, _, _, _, uHit ) 
        if ( uHit and getElementType ( uHit ) == "vehicle" ) then 
            triggerServerEvent ( "sendMessage", localPlayer, uHit ) 
        end 
    end 
) 

-- server side:

addEvent ( "sendMessage", true ) 
addEventHandler ( "sendMessage", root, 
    function ( vehicle ) 
        if ( vehicle ) then 
            outputChatBox ( getPlayerName ( source ) .." shooted on ".. getVehicleName ( vehicle ), root, 255, 255, 255, false ) 
        end 
    end 
)

Oh, I forgot that.

Also, you we're using getPlayerName on a vehicle element. And you also use getPedOccupiedVehicle, but you already have a vehicle element which is "uHit".

[Michael#]

Fuu I confused getPedOccupiedVehicle with getVehicleController.

If you are using solidsnakes code, remember to use getLocalPlayer() (like you Jaysds1 did in his reply) instead of root, because otherwise it will trigger for every player that has the shooter in its streaming range.
