control doors vehicles

[mr.Extreme]

hello

i have problem

i cant control doors vehicle

serverside:

function openDoor(door, position) 
    local theVehicle 
    if ( getElementType(source) == "vehicle" ) then 
        theVehicle = source 
    end 
    if ( getElementType(source) == "player" ) then 
        theVehicle = getElementData ( source, "cl_ownedvehicle" ) 
    end 
    if ( theVehicle ) then 
    local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(source) 
    if getPedOccupiedVehicleSeat(source) == 0 then 
        if door == 0 then 
            if position==0 then 
                setVehicleDoorOpenRatio(theVehicle, 0, 0, 0.5) 
            end 
            if position==100 then 
                setVehicleDoorOpenRatio(theVehicle, 0, 1, 0.5) 
            end 
            if position>0 and position<100 then 
                setVehicleDoorOpenRatio(theVehicle, 0, position/100, 0.5) 
            end 
        end 
        if door == 1 then 
            if position==0 then 
                setVehicleDoorOpenRatio(theVehicle, 1, 0, 0.5)

[mr.Extreme]

no work

try this:

local allowedDoors = {[0]=true,[1]=true,[2]=true,[3]=true,[4]=true,[5]=true} 
local openDoor = function (door, position) 
    door,position = tonumber(door), tonumber(position)  
    if isElement(source) and door and position and allowedDoors[door]  then 
        if position>=0 and position<=100 then 
            setVehicleDoorOpenRatio(source, door, position/100, 1000) 
        end 
    elseif isElement(client) then 
        outputChatBox("something went wrong",client) 
    end 
end

no Work and no there problem in debugscript 3

    local allowedDoors = {[0]=true,[1]=true,[2]=true,[3]=true,[4]=true,[5]=true} 
    local openDoor = function (door, position) 
  
    outputChatBox(tostring(door) .. " " .. tostring(position)) -- debugging........ 
  
        door,position = tonumber(door), tonumber(position) 
        if isElement(source) and door and position and allowedDoors[door]  then 
            if position>=0 and position<=100 then

How did you call it?

If this doesn't output anything, then you are calling it wrong, if it does then you know what you are doing wrong with delivering the data.

It should look like this:

triggerServerEvent ("openDoorOrClose",vehicle,door, position) 

Also see line 4, that is the best way how you can debug your script. Use the tostring() function to prevent errors during the debugging. Know what kind of data is flowing through your system with: type() function.

Strings, booleans, nils, number, tables, userdata's(vehicles/players/peds/objects), functions etc.....

  
variable = true 
  
outputChatBox(tostring(variable)) -- true 
outputChatBox(type(variable))-- boolean (true or false) 
  

and pls no sad looking smilies, you can't expect code starts working at ones.

[mr.Extreme]

no work

in debugscript

WARNING: vehicle\vehicle.lua46: bad argument @ 'triggerServerEvent' [Ex[ected element at argument 2, got nil]

line 46 =

triggerServerEvent ("openDoorOrClose",vehicle,door, position) 

[IIYAMA]

it seems the variable vehicle is not defined.

How do you get this vehicle in the first place? (the vehicle that you want to change)

[mr.Extreme]

you can fix it

i dont understand you

client:

setElementData(GUIEditor.scrollbar[1], "Type", 0) 
setElementData(GUIEditor.scrollbar[2], "Type", 2) 
setElementData(GUIEditor.scrollbar[3], "Type", 3) 
setElementData(GUIEditor.scrollbar[4], "Type", 4) 
setElementData(GUIEditor.scrollbar[5], "Type", 5) 
setElementData(GUIEditor.scrollbar[6], "Type", 1) 
  
function updateRatio(Scrolled) 
    local position = guiScrollBarGetScrollPosition(Scrolled) 
    local door = getElementData(Scrolled, "Type") 
    triggerServerEvent ("openDoorOrClose",vehicle,door, position) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIScroll", getRootElement(), updateRatio) 

server:

   local allowedDoors = {[0]=true,[1]=true,[2]=true,[3]=true,[4]=true,[5]=true} 
    local openDoor = function (door, position) 
  
    outputChatBox(tostring(door) .. " " .. tostring(position)) -- debugging........ 
  
        door,position = tonumber(door), tonumber(position) 
        if isElement(source) and door and position and allowedDoors[door]  then 
            if position>=0 and position<=100 then 
                setVehicleDoorOpenRatio(source, door, position/100, 1000)

    if vehicle and door and position then -- check if all the data is there.

its working i can control doors in vehicle

but i cant control doors if i am not in vehicle

[mr.Extreme]

please help

[IIYAMA]

its working i can control doors in vehicle

but i cant control doors if i am not in vehicle

and how do you want to do it then? -_-"

You can't expect it to change doors from a vehicle that is inside your head.

[manve1]

You can actually control the doors while you're away from the vehicle, simply by using element data (not recommended), or a database like: sql, mysql, xml (recommended). You will need to use a timer or something to check the data then change on the vehicle.

i want control vehicle i am not vehicle like remote

As I said:

If you don't understand, I am sorry, but it is not my problem, I just gave an example how to make it work while not in the vehicle.

[IIYAMA]

@manve1

or why don't call the lua variables(tables) instead... instead of those memory eaters.

Loading every time a xml list of 1000+ players....

Sql and mysql for permanent saving. Tables for temporary.

The rest have differed functionary's.

XML:

Saving settings for scripts serverside, saving cookies clientside.

Elementdata:

Usefull for sharing score with other players and server.

I've proven a point that it can be made and to prove that it can be made, I gave a descriptive explanation on how it could be used, anything else from that point is what the person thinks is best for him.

[IIYAMA]

Yes you did, why you need to prove it? Is it a test or something?

Any way very good, but don't recommend him to save everything in xml, that is just a very bad habbit.

[manve1]

I know, I didn't have much of time to write it, but anyway, let this topic get back on-topic.

[mr.Extreme]

I know, I didn't have much of time to write it, but anyway, let this topic get back on-topic.

you want i create a new topic?

[IIYAMA]

As far I know we talked about something that will be important after the remote control.

No need to start a new topic when the subject skipped some steps. Just start with the remote control.

AFAIK I was the one that was helping you in the first place, when he started talking about saving things permanently.

So when you enter a vehicle, you can leave the vehicle and you still want to control it right?
