You don't have "thePlayer" defined anywhere.

Imposter · July 25, 2012

  
function checkBalance(thePlayer) 
    local account = getPlayerAccount ( thePlayer ) 
    local bankMoney = getAccountData ( account, "bankcash" ) 
    if ( bankMoney==false ) then -- getAccountData returns false not nil, so check if false 
        setAccountData ( account, "bankCash", 0 ) 
        bankMoney=0 
    else 
        outputChatBox (  "EagleBot: " .. getPlayerName(thePlayer) .. " has $" .. bankMoney .. " in his bank!" ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "bank" , checkBalance )

why am i getting an error?

AMARANT · July 25, 2012

You might have had an empty account data "bankMoney". Check if it saved correctly in your internal.db or by debug messages:

function storeMoney( thePlayer, command, cash) 
    local account = getPlayerAccount ( thePlayer ) 
    local bankMoney = getAccountData ( account, "bankcash" ) 
    local store = bankMoney+tonumber(cash) -- Convert string to number here. It might cause an error too. 
    outputChatBox("DEBUG: bankMoney is: "..tostring(bankMoney)) 
    takePlayerMoney ( cash ) 
    setAccountData ( account, "bankCash", store ) 
    outputChatBox ( "You stored $" .. cash .. "in your bank!", thePlayer) 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "store" , storeMoney )

Obviously your account data 'bankMoney" returns false. It means that there's no any data saved in your internal database. You should check that there's something in it or any script makes it set correctly.

Imposter · July 25, 2012

Ok, i fixed that using

serverside

  
function storeMoney( thePlayer, command, cash) 
    local account = getPlayerAccount ( thePlayer ) 
    if isGuestAccount ( account ) then return not outputChatBox ( "* Invalid account.", thePlayer, 255, 0, 0 ) end 
    if getPlayerMoney(thePlayer) >= tonumber(cash) then 
        local bankMoney = getAccountData ( account, "bankCash" ) or 0 
        local store = bankMoney+cash 
        takePlayerMoney ( thePlayer, cash ) 
        setAccountData ( account, "bankCash", store ) 
        outputChatBox ( "DEBUG: " .. store ) 
        outputChatBox ( "You stored $" .. cash .. " in your bank!", thePlayer) 
    else 
        outputChatBox ( "You do not have $" .. cash ..", you have $" .. getPlayerMoney(thePlayer) .. " and are short by $" .. cash-getPlayerMoney(thePlayer), thePlayer) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "store" , storeMoney )

and I want to know how i can pass arguements to the serverside from clientside

clientside

  
local screenX, screenY = guiGetScreenSize() 
local width, height = 331,140 
local x = (screenX/2) - (width/2) 
local y = (screenY/2) - (height/2) 
local lp = getLocalPlayer() 
  
bankwindow = guiCreateWindow(x,y,331,140,"Bank System",false) 
balancelbl = guiCreateLabel(18,31,170,20,"Your Balance :",false,bankwindow) 
cashlbl = guiCreateLabel(18,61,170,20,"Your Cash :",false,bankwindow) 
worktxt = guiCreateEdit(22,95,158,27,"",false,bankwindow) 
storebtn = guiCreateButton(186,93,52,31,"Deposit",false,bankwindow) 
withdrawbtn = guiCreateButton(248,93,70,31,"Withdraw",false,bankwindow) 
guiWindowSetSizable(bankwindow,false) 
guiSetVisible (bankwindow, false) 
  
function resourceStart () 
  bindKey ("j", "down", menuShow) 
end 
addEventHandler ("onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement ( getThisResource () ), resourceStart) 
  
function menuShow () 
    visableornot = guiGetVisible (bankwindow) 
    if (visableornot == true) then 
        guiSetVisible (bankwindow, false) 
        showCursor (false) 
    end 
    if (visableornot == false) then 
        guiSetVisible (bankwindow, true) 
        showCursor (true) 
    end 
end 
  
function guiClick (button, state, absoluteX, absoluteY) 
  if (source == storebtn) then 
    triggerServerEvent ("withdraw", lp) 
  elseif (source == withdrawbtn) then 
    triggerServerEvent ("deposit", lp) 
  end 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root, 
    function() 
        dxDrawText("$01234567",1080.0,159.0,1281.0,214.0,tocolor(37,110,37,255),1.8,"pricedown","left","top",false,false,false) 
    end 
)

so when i click store, it sends the amount of cash entered in the editbox to the server so i can use my function that i made, how do I do this?

Callum · July 25, 2012

Look into using events to transfer data between the server and client.

AMARANT · July 25, 2012

You have to create a function server-side which receives arguments from client-side. In client-side function you have to pass required arguments. Something like this:

triggerServerEvent ("withdraw", lp, cash) -- All needed arguments can be passed after lp (local player which will be 'source' of the server function. 'cash' might be your argument representing your money to be received from client.)

Imposter · July 25, 2012

would this work if i wanted to send the bankmoney to the clientside???

server side

  
triggerClientEvent( "menuShow", getRootElement(), cash )

clientside

  
addEvent("menuShow", true ) 
function menuShow ( thePlayer, cash ) 
    visableornot = guiGetVisible (bankwindow) 
    if (visableornot == true) then 
        guiSetVisible (bankwindow, false) 
        showCursor (false) 
    end 
    if (visableornot == false) then 
        guiSetText ( balancelbl, "Your Balance : $" .. cash ) 
        guiSetVisible (bankwindow, true) 
        showCursor (true) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("menuShow", getRootElement(), menuShow)

AMARANT · July 25, 2012

I'll explain it via comments:

Server side:

  
triggerClientEvent( "menuShow", getRootElement(), cash ) -- Instead of getRootElement() you should define your specific player if you want to show it to him. Root element will show you window to everyone. 'cash' is your money argument. It can be whatever you want.

Client side:

  
addEvent("menuShow", true ) 
function menuShow ( thePlayer, cash ) -- 'thePlayer' is unnecessary variable here. It should be just menuShow ( cash ). 2nd argument from server-side will be 'source' of your client-side function so it's not required here. Leave here just 'cash'. 
    visableornot = guiGetVisible (bankwindow) 
    if (visableornot == true) then 
        guiSetVisible (bankwindow, false) 
        showCursor (false) 
    end 
    if (visableornot == false) then 
        guiSetText ( balancelbl, "Your Balance : $" .. cash ) 
        guiSetVisible (bankwindow, true) 
        showCursor (true) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("menuShow", getRootElement(), menuShow) -- I use here getLocalPlayer() as a rule.

Imposter · July 25, 2012

OK i got it all working, but i dont understand why this isnt working, the buttons arent even outputting the text

function guiClick (button, state, absoluteX, absoluteY) 
  local cash = guiGetText (worktxt) 
  if (source == storebtn) then 
    outputChatBox("should work...") 
    triggerServerEvent ("withdraw", lp, cash) 
  elseif (source == withdrawbtn) then 
    outputChatBox("should work...") 
    triggerServerEvent ("deposit", lp, cash) 
  end 
end

AMARANT · July 25, 2012

There's no event for your function. It should be like this:

addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",getRootElement(), 
    function () 
  local cash = guiGetText (worktxt) 
  if (source == storebtn) then 
    outputChatBox("should work...") 
    triggerServerEvent ("withdraw", lp, cash) 
  end 
  if (source == withdrawbtn) then 
    outputChatBox("should work...") 
    triggerServerEvent ("deposit", lp, cash) 
  end 
    end)

Imposter · July 25, 2012

There's no event for your function. It should be like this:

addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",getRootElement(), 
    function () 
  local cash = guiGetText (worktxt) 
  if (source == storebtn) then 
    outputChatBox("should work...") 
    triggerServerEvent ("withdraw", lp, cash) 
  end 
  if (source == withdrawbtn) then 
    outputChatBox("should work...") 
    triggerServerEvent ("deposit", lp, cash) 
  end 
    end)

thanks to you i successfully made it, you are like a brother but just one more thing, you know how when you add a handler as onResourceStart, why does it do it when other resources start, can it do it only when the same resource starts?

AMARANT · July 25, 2012

You mean this?

addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getRootElement( ), 
    function ( startedRes ) 
    if startedRes==getThisResource() then 
              -- Some stuff... 
    end 
    end 
)

Imposter · July 25, 2012

You mean this?

addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getRootElement( ), 
    function ( startedRes ) 
    if startedRes==getThisResource() then 
              -- Some stuff... 
    end 
    end 
)

this can be used for server side too?
