Help?

How would i be able to trigger a client event from the serverside once a player logs in but only for that player so something like...

  
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin", root, 
function() 
    triggerClientEvent("showTeamWindow", getRootElement()) 
end 
) 
  

but this shows the window(GUI) for every player instead of just the one who logs in... help me please?

Server-side

addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin", root, 
function() 
    triggerClientEvent(source, "showTeamWindow", source) 
end 
) 

Client-side

addEvent("showTeamWindow", true) 
addEventHandler("showTeamWindow", root, 
     function() 
          outputChatBox("Event triggered.", 0, 255, 0, false) 
     end 
)

At a glimpse it should be fine. Are you trying to show that when player joins or logs in?

[myonlake]

Any errors in /debugscript 3? I can't see why it wouldn't work. Sure you have the type set to client-side in meta.xml and such?

[KraZ]

ow yeah obvcourse, debug says expected string at argument 1 on triggerClientEvent

It should work fine, in that case Source's defined, unless you have made a typo.
