Bindkey timer

[gerlachmax123]

function bindKeys() 
    if isfeuerwehr ( player ) then 
        bindKey(source, "lctrl", "down", "loeschen") 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, bindKeys) 

How i can change it, that you must press lctrl 5 seconds?

[gokalpfirat]

Try this

  
function bindKeys() 
    if isfeuerwehr ( source ) then 
        bindKey(source, "lctrl", "down", loeschen) 
    end 
end  
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), bindKeys)

No, that already works, but i like to press the button "lctrl" 5 seconds and not 1 second...

what do u mean 5seconds? like hold it down for 5 seconds?

[gokalpfirat]

You must write the isfeuerwehr function and loeschen function too.

yes

yes

No you dont want to say this I think because of you are making a rocket script for race? And when car shots rocket you want it to wait 5 second?

yes

get when a player presses down the key.

then output to chat that he needs to hold the key for 5seconds.

after that, setTimer for 5 seconds, and if the player lets go off the key before timer runs out, cancel the timer and output it to the player

I want to start a function after i hold the button 5 seconds

[manve1]

What u do, is u get when a player presses the key, and holds for 5seconds, then u kill the timer and start the function

[gerlachmax123]

Difficult ^^ Thank you for your help

[manve1]

If you know what you're doing, then it shouldn't be that hard.

You're Welcome tho

Still wondering why would you use timers for that..

another way;

client:

press = 0 
function loeschen() 
    if getKeyState("lctrl") then 
            addEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, zaa) 
    end 
end 
bindKey("lctrl", "down", loeschen) 
function zaa() 
    press = press + 1 
    if press == 5000 then 
        triggerServerEvent ( "doMyFunction", getLocalPlayer() ) 
        press = 0 
    end  
end 

server:

function greetingHandler ( ) 
    -- your code goes here 
end 
addEvent( "doMyFunction", true ) 
addEventHandler( "doMyFunction", getRootElement(), greetingHandler )

No.. That won't work properly.

Use bindKey and getTickCount:

local ticks = {} 
  
function BindKeyToPlayer() 
    if ( eventName == "onPlayerJoin" ) then 
        bindKey ( source, "lctrl", "both", Loeschen ); 
    else 
        for index, value in ipairs ( getElementsByType "player" ) do 
            bindKey ( value, "lctrl", "both", Loeschen ); 
        end 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerJoin", root, BindKeyToPlayer ); 
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", root, BindKeyToPlayer ); 
  
function Loeschen ( _player, _key, _state ) 
    if ( _state == "up" ) then 
        if ( ticks[_player] ) then 
            local newTick = getTickCount(); 
            if ( ( ticks[_player] - newTick ) < 5000 ) then 
                ticks[_player] = false; 
            end 
        end 
    elseif ( _state == "down" ) then 
        ticks[_player] = getTickCount(); 
        while ( true ) do 
            local newTick = getTickCount(); 
            if ( ( ticks[_player] - newTick ) == 5000 ) then 
                --put your code here 
                break 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end 

I'm not sure if there is any error in my code, I didn't debug it because I don't have MTA San Andreas installed.
