Paynspray

[Lloyd Logan]

Hey, so How would I make it so that when the car if fixed and the player leaves the marker it won't say "Wait you forgot your repair". I made it so that it says that when you leave the marker, it displays that. But even if the car is repaired and the player leaves, it still says it?

What i mean is, when i leave the marker, it cancels the event, which was working, but... It always say wait, you forgot your repair, even if they have got their repair or they've got no money, it still says "wait your forgot your repair!"

Use

setElementData 
getElementData

Use

setElementData 
getElementData 

How would i use these? Like, what data would i get and set?

[J.S.]

Element data isn't necessary. Just assign a variable to the timer and use killTimer when they leave the marker.

Also, I'd set the marker alpha to 0 to make it invisible, but that's just my preference.

Thank I'll try that, the alpha was at 0 but i was trying other createMarkers.

Thanks Alot!

Why not try Tables, like this

dutymarker = createMarker ( 1911.35938, -1777.46899, 11.98387, "cylinder", 4.0, 255, 255, 155, 255 ) 
fix = { }      
  
function paynspray ( hitElement, matchingDimension ) 
    if getElementType ( hitElement ) == "player" then 
        if isPedInVehicle ( hitElement ) then 
            local money = getPlayerMoney ( hitElement ) 
            if money >= 500 then 
                outputChatBox ( "Please wait while we work on your vehicle!", hitElement, 255, 255, 0, true ) 
                fix [ hitElement ] = false 
                theTimer = setTimer ( 
                    function ( ) 
                        if not isElementWithinMarker ( hitElement, dutymarker ) then 
                            if isTimer ( theTimer ) then  
                                killTimer ( theTimer )                               
                                return 
                            end 
                        end 
                        playSoundFrontEnd ( hitElement, 46 ) 
                        takePlayerMoney ( hitElement, 500 ) 
                        fixVehicle ( getPedOccupiedVehicle ( hitElement ) ) 
                        outputChatBox ( "Thank you for coming to us for your repair!", hitElement, 0, 255, 0, true ) 
                        fix [ hitElement ] = true 
                    end 
                , 5000, 1 ) 
            else 
                outputChatBox("Please come back when you have atleast $500, thank you", hitElement, 255, 0, 0, true ) 
            end 
        else 
            outputChatBox ( "You don't have vehicle!", hitElement, 255, 0, 0, true )         
        end 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onMarkerHit", dutymarker, paynspray, false ) 
      
function mLeave ( hitElement, matchingDimension ) 
    if getElementType(hitElement) == "player" then 
        if not fix [ hitElement ] then 
            outputChatBox ( "Wait, you forgot your repair!", hitElement, 255, 0, 0, true ) 
        end 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onMarkerLeave", dutymarker, mLeave, false )
