Move to an arena problem

[papam77]

Hey, i have gamemode called [lobby] and i made functions for move to next gamemode called [race]

GUIEditor = { 
    button = {} 
} 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, 
    function() 
    GUIEditor.button[1] = guiCreateButton(0.44, 0.31, 0.15, 0.24, "", true, player,"gamemode","race",true)     
    end 
) 

Why it can't join to race ?

Read the wiki !!

There is no argument for gamemode with the function guiCreateButton .

Now

  
GUIEditor = { 
    button = {} 
} 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, 
    function() 
    GUIEditor.button[1] = setElementData, guiCreateButton (0.44, 0.31, 0.15, 0.24, "",true, player,"gamemode","deathmatch",true)     
    end 
)

    addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",GUIEditor.button[1],Click,false) 
    end 
) 
  
  
function Click( ) 
    setElementData(localPlayer,"gamemode","deathmatch",true)   
    outputChatBox( "* Data True !!",0,255,0 )

And what i must do now for move to gamemode DM from gamemode lobby ?

[iPrestege]

You have to use :

string.find -- to find the maps for the gamemode

And string.find is server side or client ?
