[HELP] Script Error

[LiOneLMeSsIShoT]

What you want the bot to do other than following you?

i mean. the bot is hardly follows me...the bot stop for long time then starts to keep following.. i mean not always follow me .. why?

Try to lower the distance checker, open slothbot > sbserver.lua > go to line 666 and search for this:

if (fdist < 13) and (getElementData (ped, "follow_shooting") == true) then 

Change the distance from 13 to 2 and save the file and restart slothbot and your script and try, i hope it will work.

Alright tried..work as the ped follows,

but when i stop the ped starts to jump behind me and move around me like a mad guy

It should stop when it became near you.

[LiOneLMeSsIShoT]

It should stop when it became near you.

actually it's not...try to use the script man and you will see

[TAPL]

Try this and see if there any difference.

addCommandHandler ("guard", 
function(player) 
    local x, y, z = getElementPosition(player) 
    Guard = exports["slothbot"]:spawnBot(x+2, y+2, z, 0, 240, 0, 0, nil, 0, "following", player) 
    setTimer(function()  
        exports["slothbot"]:setBotAttackEnabled(Guard, false) 
        setElementData(Guard, "seestarget", true)  
    end, 250, 1) 
end) 

i can't help you more as the script (slothbot) is long and modifying it require known the script logic and how it work and then making your own script will be better than modifying (slothbot).

The example was there: https://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtopic.php?f=91&t=67785

    ped = createPed(0, getElementPosition(localPlayer)) 
      
    addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, 
    function() 
        local x, y, z = getElementPosition(localPlayer) 
        local tx, ty, tz = getElementPosition(ped) 
        local dis = getDistanceBetweenPoints2D(x, y, tx, ty) 
        if dis > 2 then 
            setPedControlState(ped, "forwards", true) 
        else 
            setPedControlState(ped, "forwards", false) 
        end 
        setPedRotation(ped, findRotation(tx, ty, x, y)) 
    end) 
      
    function findRotation(x1,y1,x2,y2) 
        local t = -math.deg(math.atan2(x2-x1,y2-y1)) 
        if t < 0 then t = t + 360 end 
        return t 
    end 

Alright yeah this Example...but i don't understand the script 100% can you explain me somethings on it?

1-

setPedRotation(ped, findRotation(tx, ty, x, y)) 

2-

function findRotation(x1,y1,x2,y2) 
    local t = -math.deg(math.atan2(x2-x1,y2-y1)) 
    if t < 0 then t = t + 360 end 
    return t 
end 

Thanks

This function takes two sets of XY coordinates. It returns the direction from point A to point B. This can for example be used to make peds face a given point.

Well, what is x1, y1, x2, y2? and what's "math.deg and math.atan2..and what's x2-x1,y2-y1 ..and what's t = t +360 ...please man tell me what or even how they work

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/FindRotation

Xa: The X coordinate of the starting point.

Ya: The Y coordinate of the starting point.

Xb: The X coordinate of the target point.

Yb: The Y coordinate of the target point.

and what's "math.deg and math.atan2..and what's x2-x1,y2-y1 ..and what's t = t +360 ...please man tell me what or even how they work

math.deg and math.atan2 is lua math function, findRotation is useful function you don't need to know how and why it made like this just use it.

The example already showed how it used.

ped = createPed(0, getElementPosition(localPlayer)) 
  
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, 
function() 
    local x, y, z = getElementPosition(localPlayer) 
    local tx, ty, tz = getElementPosition(ped) 
    local dis = getDistanceBetweenPoints2D(x, y, tx, ty) 
    if dis > 2 then 
        setPedControlState(ped, "forwards", true) 
    else 
        setPedControlState(ped, "forwards", false) 
    end 
    setPedRotation(ped, findRotation(tx, ty, x, y)) 
end) 
  
function findRotation(x1,y1,x2,y2) 
    local t = -math.deg(math.atan2(x2-x1,y2-y1)) 
    if t < 0 then t = t + 360 end 
    return t 
end 

Line 13 is used to make the ped face you, so when it move forwards it will follow you.

Alright well Thanks but can you make the script more simple with server side and trigger clinet side ?

Your turn to try.
