Trigger a client side event handler

[..:D&G:..]

How do I trigger this event:

addCommandHandler("showhud", 
function () 
if handler  then 
removeEventHandler("onClientRender",root,renderHud) 
handler = false 
else 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,renderHud) 
handler = true 
end 

So its handler = false like

ONLY AN EXAMPLE:

triggerEvent("hideHud", getLocalPlayer()) 

Or do I need to make an event?

local handler = false 
function myHudFunction () 
if handler  then 
removeEventHandler("onClientRender",root,renderHud) 
handler = false 
else 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,renderHud) 
handler = true 
end 
end 
  
addCommandHandler("showhud",myHudFunction) 
  
addEvent("hideHud",true) 
addEventHandler("hideHud",root,myHudFunction) 
  

    triggerEvent("hideHud", getLocalPlayer())

Doesn't work

Here is what I did in the other script that triggers the event

function hideInterfaceComponents() 
    triggerEvent("hideHud", getLocalPlayer()) 
     
    loadSettings() 
    saveLanguageInformation() 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), hideInterfaceComponents)

addEvent ( "hideHud", true ) 
addCommandHandler("showhud", 
function () 
if handler  then 
removeEventHandler("onClientRender",root,renderHud) 
handler = false 
else 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,renderHud) 
handler = true 
end 
addEventHandler ( "hideHud", root, myHudFunction ) 
  

  
triggerEvent ( "hideHud", root, getLocalPlayer() )

1 That other script was already running before you triggered the event?

2 And what happens when you do:

triggerEvent("hideHud", getLocalPlayer()) 

triggerEvent("hideHud", root) 

3 Both are 100% clientside?

4 And what will happen when you put the event in the same script?
