How can get player count from Dimension ?

[papam77]

Hello, is possible to get player count from dimension?

If yes, how?

[csiguusz]

Possible. Loop through all players, check their dimension and if they are in the given dimension count them.

I made this a while ago for a server:

function getAllPlayerInDimension ( dimension ) 
    local rValue = { }; 
    for i, v in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
        if ( getElementDimension ( v ) == dimension ) then 
            table.insert ( rValue, v ); 
        else return; end; 
    end 
    return rValue; 
end

What was wrong with mine?

[denny199]

Because this line:

" else return; end; "

was useless

" else return; end; "

was useless

ah, I never tested the function lol, thanks.

Okay, but how to use this ? 

--Where is the error? 
function getAllPlayerInDimension ( dimension ) 
    local rValue = { }; 
    for i, v in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
        if ( getElementDimension ( v ) == dimension ) then 
            table.insert ( rValue, v ); 
        end 
    end 
    return rValue; 
end 

function SetDimensionLobby()
getAllPlayerInDimension (0)
outputChatBox ("all players in Dimension 0"..table.concat(rValue))
end 
addCommandHandler ("s",SetDimensionLobby,false)

--I want to check if Dimension 0 has a player, if true, then check Dimension 1, if true, then the next dimension, until Dimension (n) == 0 players, if dimension (n) == 0 players then setElementDimension (source , Dimension (n)), how to do this? (Sorry, I'm brasilian and my English is low level).

iprint(getAllPlayerInDimension (0))

First debug.

After executing the function, it returns a table which contains all players from that dimension.

Just run the code and check your debug-console.

Why is my mod setting the dimension for all players?

function joinHandler()
	fadeCamera(source, true) 
	setCameraTarget(source)
	spawnPlayer(source, 0, 0, 5)
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin", getRootElement(), joinHandler)

function playerToLobby()
triggerClientEvent ( "PlayerOnLobby", root )
end 
addEventHandler ("onPlayerSpawn",getRootElement(),playerToLobby)

function getAllPlayerInDimension ( dimension ) 
    rValue = { }; 
    for i, v in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
        if ( getElementDimension ( v ) == dimension ) then 
            table.insert ( rValue, v ); 
        end 
    end 
    return rValue; 
end 

function SetDimensionLobby(thePlayer)
g_NPlayers = true
g_NState = 0   
	while g_NPlayers do 
    getAllPlayerInDimension (g_NState)
        if (#rValue>0) then 
		g_NState = g_NState + 1;
		outputChatBox ("O valor é maior que 0")
	    else 
	        g_NPlayers = false
			outputChatBox ("A dimension setada é: "..g_NState)
        end
	end
local s_PlayerDimension = g_NState
setElementDimension (source,s_PlayerDimension)
end
addEvent ("onCommand", true)
addEventHandler ("onCommand",getRootElement(),SetDimensionLobby)
