How can i make that when i select object on grid list and i press a button, it will be created by side, or on his head, here is LUA

local hRow = nil; 
      
hWnd = guiCreateWindow( 0.1, 0.1, 0.2, 0.65, "Hats", true ); 
hButton_use = guiCreateButton( 0.1, 0.725, 0.5, 0.1, "Use", true, hWnd ); 
hButton_close = guiCreateButton( 0.1, 0.85, 0.5, 0.1, "Close", true, hWnd ); 
  
local aObjects = 
{ 
    "Gate", 
    "Bottle", 
    "Flower pot", 
    "Bin", 
    "Fan", 
    "WW1 hat", 
    "WW2 hat"; 
}; 
            
hGrid = guiCreateGridList( 0.1, 0.10, 0.8, 0.60, true, hWnd ); 
guiGridListAddColumn( hGrid, "ZM hats", 0.85 ); 
      
local x, y, z = getElementPosition()      
      
for i,m_obj in ipairs( aObjects ) do 
    hRow = guiGridListAddRow( hGrid ); 
    -- 
    guiGridListSetItemText ( hGrid, hRow, 1, tostring( m_obj ), false, false ); 
end 
  
function use() 
if (source == "Gate" and hButton_use) then 
createObject( 980, x + 1, y, z, 0, 0, 0 ) 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", hButton_use, aObjects )

    guiGridListSetItemData ( hGrid, hRow, 1, tostring( m_obj [ 2 ] ) ); 
end 
  
function use ( ) 
    local row, col = guiGridListGetSelectedItem ( hGrid ) 
    if ( row and col and row ~= -1 and col ~= -1 ) then 
        local model = tonumber ( guiGridListGetItemData ( hGrid, row, 1 ) ) 
        local x, y, z = getElementPosition ( localPlayer )

this wroked, thanx, but 2 more questions

1. how do i attach it to players head

2. when he clicks use and then on other object, how i make that first one gets deleted?

[Castillo]

1: attachElements

2: Define the object, like this:

object = createObject ( model, x + 1, y, z, 0, 0, 0 ) 

and just before creating you do:

if ( isElement ( object ) ) then 
    destroyElement ( object ) 
end 
object = createObject ( model, x + 1, y, z, 0, 0, 0 ) 

[manve1]

you got me so confused for 5th time, can you just make a script? cuz you always nearly make me confused, thx

[Castillo]

Is not confused, because what you want is us to make the scripts for you, you are not learning at all.

[manve1]

You telling me that im not trying to learn using MTA wiki? then why the F*** is it up?

And what you MTA team posted and don't even understand at all...that's why its confusing for me..

EDIT: i made new LUA, as you told me too, but it still doesn't do it, i am still confused on how to make attachElements right, but i made another that should of worked, but idk why it just doesn't

    function use ( ) 
        local row, col = guiGridListGetSelectedItem ( hGrid ) 
        if ( row and col and row ~= -1 and col ~= -1 ) then 
            local model = tonumber ( guiGridListGetItemData ( hGrid, row, 1 ) ) 
            local x, y, z = getElementPosition ( localPlayer ) 
                if ( isElement ( object ) ) then 
        destroyElement ( object ) 
    end 
    object = createObject ( model, x, y, z + 0.8, 0, 0, 0 ) 
        object = createObject ( model, x, y, z + 0.8, 0, 0, 0 ) 
            attachElements ( object, source, x, y, z) 
        end 
    end 
    addEventHandler ( "onClientGUIClick", hButton_use, use, false )

You have double createObject in your code.

And you need to use localPlayer in attachElements not source.

Also you have to notice that the object will be visible only for the player who has pressed the button.

What were you thining when you used getElementPosition and then used that position with attachElements?

[manve1]

fixed what you guys said.. now it doesn't even create the object, here is lua

    local hRow = nil 
    local x, y, z = getElementPosition ( source ) 
     
    hWnd = guiCreateWindow( 0.1, 0.1, 0.2, 0.65, "Hats", true ); 
    hButton_use = guiCreateButton( 0.1, 0.725, 0.5, 0.1, "Use", true, hWnd ); 
    hButton_close = guiCreateButton( 0.1, 0.85, 0.5, 0.1, "Close", true, hWnd ); 
      
    local aObjects = 
    { 
        { "Bottle", 1512 }, 
        { "Flower pot", 742 }, 
        { "Bin", 1362 }, 
        { "Fan", 14527 }, 
        { "WW1 hat", 2052 }, 
        { "WW2 hat", 2053 }, 
    }; 
                
    hGrid = guiCreateGridList( 0.1, 0.10, 0.8, 0.60, true, hWnd ); 
    guiGridListAddColumn( hGrid, "ZM hats", 0.85 ); 
          
    for i,m_obj in ipairs( aObjects ) do 
        hRow = guiGridListAddRow( hGrid ); 
        -- 
        guiGridListSetItemText ( hGrid, hRow, 1, tostring( m_obj [ 1 ] ), false, false ); 
        guiGridListSetItemData ( hGrid, hRow, 1, tostring( m_obj [ 2 ] ) ); 
    end 
      
    function use ( ) 
        local row, col = guiGridListGetSelectedItem ( hGrid ) 
        if ( row and col and row ~= -1 and col ~= -1 ) then 
            local model = tonumber ( guiGridListGetItemData ( hGrid, row, 1 ) ) 
            local x, y, z = getElementPosition ( localPlayer ) 
                if ( isElement ( object ) ) then 
        destroyElement ( object ) 
    end 
        object = createObject ( model, x, y, z + 0.8, 0, 0, 0 ) 
            attachElements ( object, localPlayer, x, y, z) 
        end 
    end 
    addEventHandler ( "onClientGUIClick", hButton_use, use, false )

Line 1 - 2 make no sense, just remove it.

Did you read what sockz said?

i think you need it like this:

attachElements(object, localPlayer, 0, 0, 1) 

and again

Also you have to notice that the object will be visible only for the player who has pressed the button.
