[HELP] GUI

[ViRuZGamiing]

Hello,

I want to make my small Bind / Command Scripts all together in 1 GUI

My GUI:

GUIEditor = { 
    button = {}, 
    window = {}, 
    progressbar = {} 
} 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, 
    function() 
        GUIEditor.window[1] = guiCreateWindow(280, 730, 718, 60, "Dashboard", false) 
        guiWindowSetSizable(GUIEditor.window[1], false) 
  
        GUIEditor.button[1] = guiCreateButton(9, 25, 117, 25, "Lights", false, GUIEditor.window[1]) 
        GUIEditor.button[2] = guiCreateButton(136, 25, 117, 25, "Engine", false, GUIEditor.window[1]) 
        GUIEditor.progressbar[1] = guiCreateProgressBar(260, 26, 196, 24, false, GUIEditor.window[1]) 
        GUIEditor.button[3] = guiCreateButton(464, 25, 117, 25, "Lock", false, GUIEditor.window[1]) 
        GUIEditor.button[4] = guiCreateButton(591, 25, 117, 25, "Close", false, GUIEditor.window[1])     
    end 
) 

What I want to happen is:

1. Lights (The Car Lights turns on/off)

2. Engine (The Car Engine turns on/off)

3. Km/h (Speedometer: Not figured out yet!)

4. Lock (The Car Doors un/lock: Not figured out yet!)

5. Close (The GUI closes)

Always when I put the GUI + Meta in a folder and run it the GUI is always open and no button works.

yea I know why.

But I want to know how I can convert my Bind / Commanded Scripts to a Clickable GUI script

Engine Script

function SwitchEngine( playerSource ) 
    local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( playerSource ) 
    if theVehicle and getVehicleController ( theVehicle ) == playerSource then 
        local state = getVehicleEngineState ( theVehicle ) 
        setVehicleEngineState ( theVehicle, not state ) 
    end 
end 
  
function BindKeys ( player ) 
    if ( eventName == "onVehicleStartEnter" ) then 
        bindKey ( player,"x","down",SwitchEngine ) 
    else 
        unbindKey ( player,"x","down",SwitchEngine ) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onVehicleStartEnter", root, BindKeys ) 
addEventHandler ( "onVehicleStartExit", root, BindKeys ) 

Lights Script

local root = getRootElement () 
local thisResourceRoot = getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()) 
  
function thisResourceStart () 
    local players = getElementsByType ( "player" ) 
    for k,v in ipairs(players) do 
        bindKey ( v, "l", "down", toggleVehicleLights ) 
    end 
end 
  
function playerJoin () 
    bindKey ( source, "l", "down", toggleVehicleLights ) 
end 
  
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", thisResourceRoot, thisResourceStart ) 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerJoin", root, playerJoin ) 
  
function toggleVehicleLights ( player, key, state ) 
    if ( getPedOccupiedVehicleSeat ( player ) == 0 ) then 
        local veh = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( player ) 
        if ( getVehicleOverrideLights ( veh ) ~= 2 ) then 
            setVehicleOverrideLights ( veh, 2 ) 
        else 
            setVehicleOverrideLights ( veh, 1 ) 
        end 
    end 
end 
  

Thanks for Helping!

onClientGUIClick

triggerServerEvent 

[ViRuZGamiing]

So If I add this to my Engine script and delete the current Event or CommandHandler,

Will it work?

addEventhandler ("onClientGUIClick",Engine, down) 

[iPrestege]

addEventHandler ("onClientGUIClick",button or root or anything able to use,function,if u use a button add false here) 

[ViRuZGamiing]

P.S. First of all I want to make my GUI Open and Close,

Then we'll see to the Scripts, Okay?

I want it to be when I'm in a car and click on it, it will open the GUI

To close I want the Close button to be used.

Thanks

[iPrestege]

isPedInVehicle 
bindKey 
guiSetVisible 
showCursor 

[ViRuZGamiing]

So Filled in I get;

addEventHandler ("onClientGUIClick",Close,closeGui,false) 
-- This will use the button Close, when pressed Close it will do what Function closeGui tells. 

Correct?

[iPrestege]

Yes that's right .

[ViRuZGamiing]

how about this?

When I press "m" while in a car then Cursor is being showed.

press "m" again and it's hidden.

Only while in a car available!

function showCursor(player) 
    showCursor(player, true) 
end 
  
bindKey(player, m, down) 
addEventHandler("onVehicleEnter", player) 
  
function hideCursor(player) 
    showCursor(player, false) 
end 
  
unbindKey(player, m, down) 
addEventHandler("onVehicleExit", player) 
  

[iPrestege]

bindKey 
isPedInVehicle 
showCursor 
isCursorShowing 

[ViRuZGamiing]

What about this?

addEventHandler("onVehicleEnter", player, cursor, 
    function cursor( ) 
            showCursor( not isCursorShowing( ) ) 
        end 
) 
bindKey( "m", "down", "togglecursor" ) 

Can you edit it when wrong?

[iPrestege]

-- # Client Side 
bindKey("M","down", 
        function (  ) 
            if isPedInVehicle ( getLocalPlayer (    ) ) then 
                showCursor ( not isCursorShowing (  )   ) 
            end 
        end 
    ) 

Make it more easy .

[ViRuZGamiing]

Was mine to difficult?

[iPrestege]

You're code is wrong .

[ViRuZGamiing]

I'm back in a sec > Gonna try the cursor script

[ViRuZGamiing]

bad argument @ bindKey

[iPrestege]

Make sure it's a client side ... .

[ViRuZGamiing]

Ow yea I didn't copied the Client Side thing so I forgot it

[ViRuZGamiing]

Works,

next Step: Cursor Click on Car the whole GUI opens!

Step 3: GUI Click "Close" GUI Closes.

I tried alot of codes the past 10 Minutes none worked...

[iPrestege]

Post what you did you try to close the gui .

[Sasu]

next Step: Cursor Click on Car the whole GUI opens!

Try this:

addEventHandler("onClientClick", root, 
function(_,_,_,_,_,_,_, clickedElement) 
    if clickedElement == getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer) then 
        guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], true) 
    end 
end 
) 

[ViRuZGamiing]

What does _,_, mean?

Server sided right?

Edited May 19, 2013 by Guest

[Sasu]

We use _, when we dont use the other parameters?

[ViRuZGamiing]

No Errors but it is being showed when i'm ingame whole time.

it needs to be invisible and when i'm IN a car and click on the car it becomes visible.

With the Last button Close back invisible.

[ViRuZGamiing]

+ Can I lock a GUI?

I don't want people to move the GUI but that I stays on the given location on the screen
