Table problem

[scratcher911]

I have problem with tables. When I make marker only one marker works. all should work but IDK why it doesn't.

Here's my code;

  
local jobs =  
{ 
{"Police Officer",1547.06470, -1681.80249, 13.55873, 0, 100, 255}; 
{"Paramedic",1178.41431, -1328.58850, 14.11890, 0, 255, 255}; 
} 
  
for _, job in ipairs (jobs) do 
jobMarker = createMarker(job[2], job[3], job[4], "cylinder", 1.5, job[5], job[6], job[7]) 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onClientMarkerHit", jobMarker, 
function() 
--CODE HERE 
end 
)

I am not so good at LUA but, shouldn't variables be unpacked? In that case

[scratcher911]

what do you mean ?

[Renkon]

You should use

unpack(var) 

local jobs = 
{ 
{"Police Officer",1547.06470, -1681.80249, 13.55873, 0, 100, 255}; 
{"Paramedic",1178.41431, -1328.58850, 14.11890, 0, 255, 255}; 
} 
  
  
for _, job in ipairs (jobs) do 
local v1, v2, v3, v4, v5, v6, v7 = unpack (job)  
jobMarker = createMarker(v2,  v3, v4, "cylinder", 1.5, v5, v6, v7) 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onClientMarkerHit", jobMarker, 
function() 
--CODE HERE 
end 
)

thanks. But the same problem ...

[Renkon]

I am afraid I do not know then, delete what I told you to write. I'm sorry

Btw only one will work because you make two fors, and the last one gets inside the variable.

The first won't get an event.

local jobMarker = {} 
local jobs =  
{ 
{"Police Officer",1547.06470, -1681.80249, 13.55873, 0, 100, 255}, 
{"Paramedic",1178.41431, -1328.58850, 14.11890, 0, 255, 255} 
} 
  
for i=1,#jobs do 
jobMarker[i] = createMarker(jobs[i][2], jobs[i][3], jobs[i][4], "cylinder", 1.5, jobs[i][5], jobs[i][6], jobs[i][7]) 
addEventHandler("onClientMarkerHit",jobMarker[i],myFunction) 
end 
  
function myFunction() 
--CODE HERE 
end

You should use

unpack(var) 

local jobs = 
{ 
{"Police Officer",1547.06470, -1681.80249, 13.55873, 0, 100, 255}; 
{"Paramedic",1178.41431, -1328.58850, 14.11890, 0, 255, 255}; 
} 
  
  
for _, job in ipairs (jobs) do 
local v1, v2, v3, v4, v5, v6, v7 = unpack (job)  
jobMarker = createMarker(v2,  v3, v4, "cylinder", 1.5, v5, v6, v7) 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onClientMarkerHit", jobMarker, 
function() 
--CODE HERE 
end 
) 

Where did you see that you need to unpack tables?

[Renkon]

Well, I just saw from many scripts that they used unpack in order to save 'em as variables.
