Help pls!!!

I do not understand how to do

[Castillo]

I'll try to explain how to do it as good as I can:

1: Trigger a server side event from the client side using triggerServerEvent when the resource starts ( onClientResourceStart )

2: On the server side, add this event using addEvent & addEventHandler, then, you must trigger a client side event using triggerClientEvent, where you'll send the 'sounds' table.

3: On the client side, add this new event you triggered from the server side using addEvent & addEventHandler, then, define the function with one argument, which will be the table you sent from the server side.

4: Loop this table with 'pairs' for-loop ( http://lua-users.org/wiki/ForTutorial ), then, use triggerEvent to trigger the 'createSoundClient' event passing theVehicle and ID from the table., so you don't have to define playSound and so on again.

I told you to use 'pairs' not 'ipairs'.

-- client side:

addEvent ( "onServerToggleRadio", true ) 
addEventHandler ( "onServerToggleRadio", root, 
    function ( sounds ) 
        for vehicle, id in pairs ( sounds ) do 
            if isElement ( vehicle ) then 
                triggerEvent ( "createSoundClient", localPlayer, id, vehicle ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 

-- server side:

addEvent ( "onPlayerToggleRadio", true ) 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerToggleRadio", root, 
    function ( ) 
        triggerClientEvent ( source, "onServerToggleRadio", source, sounds ) -- You had to use 'source' here, else, it would trigger to everyone. 
    end 
)
