OOP functions

[IIYAMA]

I have heard some things about the OOP system, about that it is faster etc.

But is this all ready possible and able to use?

If "yes" were can I find how to use it? Because I have never seen an OOP system.

Thank you

As far as I know, LUA doesn't have a way to be used in an OOP. Wish they made it, gawd that would be awesome. But it's not up to the MTA team to do so, it's up to the creators of LUA.

Excuse me, LUA does have the ability to be used in an OOP-application. ._.' It is just... different haha

Meta tables, hmm I have never tried to use them because they never had any extra use for me.

I always did things like this:

local myTable Information = Table1[variable] or Table2[vaiable] 

So it is possible to set a meta table from client to serverside?

Bedankt!

hahaha that randomly dutch word there.

Ehh I'm not sure. I have never used the OOP shizzle for MTA. It's worth a try I guess? Let me know how it turned out ( if you're going to try, I'll try it too in a sec )

[IIYAMA]

To be honest I have no idea how to connect those tables. When you send them over with triggerClientEvent, only a copie remains of the table from serverside.

Also when you set the lua file as client and serverside, you also will have a copie.

But I will try to find this secret.

Ik weet niet hoever dit mogelijk is.

[tosfera]

as far as I came, I couldn't recall the class in the other side ( created it in client-side, server side couldn't recall it ).

[IIYAMA]

yes, I had same result.

As far as I know, MTA will have OOP in a future version, example ( I think ):

local vehicle = createVehicle ( ) 
vehicle:position ( 0, 0, 0 ) 
vehicle:health ( 500 )

As far as I know, MTA will have OOP in a future version, example ( I think ):

local vehicle = createVehicle ( ) 
vehicle:position ( 0, 0, 0 ) 
vehicle:health ( 500 ) 

is that already built in, or will that be update. If so, Can't wait to rewrite everything!

[Castillo]

It'll be in a future release if I'm right.

MTA 1.4 will have an OOP alternative which can be enabled in the metadata file, yes. I'm working on the official OOP documentation but haven't finished it yet.

local vehicle = Vehicle.create(411, 0, 0, 0) 
vehicle:setPosition(Vector3(0, 20, 0)) 
vehicle:setHealth(500) 
  
-- or 
  
local vehicle = Vehicle.create(411, 0, 0, 0) 
vehicle.position = Vector3(0, 20, 0) 
vehicle.health = 500 

The 1st link mentioned by Jesseunit is the documentation of all classes and their members, which might be outdated now. I'll update it soon and start working on examples.

EDIT: It looks like qaisjp had to mess up with it so I need to fix this later.
