1. You can do this via event onClientPlayerWeaponFire and

createExplosion 

or you can make this via function

setCameraMatrix 

2. For loop

  
for n = 1, 3 do 
 -- ... 
end

function onClientPlayerWeaponFireFunc ( weapon, ammo, ammoInClip, hitX, hitY, hitZ, hitElement ) 
    local pX, pY, pZ = getElementPosition ( localPlayer ) 
    createExplosion ( pX, pY, pZ, 6 ) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientPlayerWeaponFire", localPlayer, onClientPlayerWeaponFireFunc )

for n = 1, 3 do 
 -- ... 
end 
  

But someone told me that setElementData can do that, right ?

[Kenix]

something like that

cont = 3 
setTimer(function() cont = cont -1 end,1000,3) 

you can find resource here https://community.multitheftauto.com - search 'countdown'

Wrong.

And why is that ?

[Kenix]

1.

local text = guiCreateLabel() 

Use all arguments or write this in comments, otherwise he can understand it's normal.

2.

guiSetText(text,cont) 

count variable is number, but you should use string. ( See wiki ) So you need use tostring function.

guiSetText( text, tostring( cont ) )

guiSetText( text, tostring( cont ) ) 

guiSetText automatically converts numerical value to string and displays it, so there's no need to do that actually.
