local theTeam = "The team name"; 
  
for i,v in ipairs( getElementsByType( 'player' ) ) do 
    if ( ( getTeamName( getPlayerTeam( v ) ) == theTeam ) and ( v == localPlayer ) ) then 
        --draw map name 
    end 
end

Thanks but i have one more question. How to make playerblips visible only for this team?

[Anderl]

There is a "visible to" parameter in createBlip.

[Michcio]

I know but i make sth wrong.

[Anderl]

Show the code you tried.

[Michcio]

function onPlayerSpawn1 ( spawnpoint ) 
    for id, player in ipairs( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
    if getPlayerTeam(player) == getTeamFromName("Policja") then 
            createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, 0, 0, 255, 255, 0, 300, player ) 
    end 
    end 
end 

[Anderl]

Where is "source" defined?

[Michcio]

There is an event onPlayerSpawn.

[Anderl]

Is that code server-side in meta.xml? Show meta.xml.

Check for errors in debug also, I can't seem to find any. Maybe it's me, I'm fucked up today.

Yes.

[Michcio]

There's no errors but it doesn't work good.

[Castillo]

function onPlayerSpawn1 ( spawnpoint ) 
    local blip = createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, 0, 0, 255, 255, 0, 300 ) 
    setElementVisibleTo ( blip, root, false ) 
    for _, player in ipairs ( getPlayersInTeam ( getTeamFromName ( "Policja" ) ) ) do 
        setElementVisibleTo ( blip, player, true ) 
    end 
end

Blip is unvisible for all players.

Maybe I must do it on client side and trigger setElementVisibleTo in onClientRender function.

[Castillo]

My script should hide it for everyone, then show it to the players inside the team.

[Michcio]

I know it but it shows it to players who is in team at the moment. I need to do that it is visible to players who is in this team all the time.
