Scoreboard getPlayerMoney

Karuzo · February 12, 2014

Hey all,

i have a small problem with my scoreboard.

i want to get the player's money.

but that doesn't really work, cause i cannot get the Players Money client-side,because the player would only see his money in each line.

So i asked a friend and he said me that i need to use element datas.

But i just don't get it how that should work..

Here's my client-side Script:

  local players = getElementsByType ( "player" ) 
  local playas = 0 
  local playerheight = 20 
  for amt, player in pairs(players) do 
    playas = playas + 1 
    if (playas <= 20) then 
      local ping = getPlayerPing(player) 
        local teamp = getPlayerTeam(player) 
        local teamn = getTeamName(teamp) 
        local money = --I don't know how i should make that. 
      if (ping >= 250) then 
    r,g,b = 255,0,0 
      elseif (ping >= 120) then 
    r,g,b = 255,69,0 
      else       
    r,g,b = 0,255,0      
      end        
      dxDrawText(getPlayerName ( player ), X+60,Y+60+playerheight*(amt-1), Width,Height, tocolor(255,255,255), 1 , "default-bold","left", "top",false, false,true,true)  
      dxDrawText(ping,X+480,Y+60+playerheight*(amt-1), Width, Height, tocolor(r,g,b), 1, "default","left", "top",false,false,true,true) 
      dxDrawText(money.." $", X+210,Y+60+playerheight*(amt-1),Width, Height, tocolor(255,255,255), 1, "default","left", "top",false, false, true, true) 
      dxDrawText(teamn, X+350,Y+60+playerheight*(amt-1),Width, Height, tocolor(255,255,255), 1, "default","left", "top",false, false, true, true) 
    end 
  end 
end

local currentMoney = 0 
  
addEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, 
    function ( ) 
        local money = getPlayerMoney ( ) 
        if ( currentMoney ~= money ) then 
            outputChatBox ( money ) 
            setElementData ( localPlayer, "playerMoney", money ) 
            currentMoney = money 
        end 
    end 
)

I'm not sure how efficient this is, it'll set the element data "playerMoney" everytime the player's money changes.

Then you can use getElementData to get the player money.

Karuzo · February 12, 2014

Would that work ?

I mean , getPlayerMoney client-sided would show the local players money just several times.

e.g.: if i have 400$ my friend would also have 400$ but he has 0$.

I think your script is client-side otherwise onClientRender wouldn't work.

Castillo · February 12, 2014

Yes, it should work just fine, go ahead a try it.

Karuzo · February 12, 2014

Can't try it at the moment, no ones online We have 12 o'clock here.

And if i want to save it just get a AccountData and set the Element there?

Castillo · February 12, 2014

What do you mean?

Karuzo · February 12, 2014

I mean if i want to save the current money the player has in his hands,

just do it like this ?

function playerLogin (thePreviousAccount, theCurrentAccount, autoLogin) 
    if not (isGuestAccount (getPlayerAccount(source))) then 
        local accountData = getAccountData (theCurrentAccount, "money") 
        if (accountData) then 
            local playerMoney = getAccountData(theCurrentAccount, "money") 
            setElementData(source,"money",getPlayerMoney(source)) 
              end 
              end 
            end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin", getRootElement(), playerLogin)

Castillo · February 12, 2014

No need to do that? the script I gave you earlier will update the element data when the money changes.

Karuzo · February 12, 2014

Thank you Solidsnake14,

it just works perfectly.

Castillo · February 13, 2014

You're welcome.

Ok i have another problem,

if i'm joining my server i don't see the other players , but if i have more than 0$ i can see them, why ?

Here's my code :

local currentMoney = 0 
  
addEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, 
    function ( ) 
        local money = getPlayerMoney ( ) 
        if ( currentMoney ~= money ) then 
            outputChatBox ( money ) 
            setElementData ( localPlayer, "playerMoney", money ) 
            currentMoney = money 
        end 
    end 
) 
  
  local players = getElementsByType ( "player" ) 
  local playas = 0 
  local playerheight = 20 
  for amt, player in pairs(players) do 
    playas = playas + 1 
    if (playas <= 20) then 
      local ping = getPlayerPing(player) 
        local teamp = getPlayerTeam(player) 
        local teamn = getTeamName(teamp) 
        local money = getElementData(player, "playerMoney") 
      if (ping >= 250) then 
    r,g,b = 255,0,0 
      elseif (ping >= 120) then 
    r,g,b = 255,69,0 
      else       
    r,g,b = 0,255,0      
      end        
      dxDrawText(money.." $", X+210,Y+60+playerheight*(amt-1),Width, Height, tocolor(255,255,255), 1, "default","left", "top",false, false, true, true) 
    end 
  end 
end

You need onClientRender to draw it, where is it?

Karuzo · February 13, 2014

function open() 
  opened = not opened 
  if opened == true then 
    addEventHandler("onClientRender", gRoot, Scoreboard) 
    showChat(false) 
    showPlayerHudComponent("all", false) 
  else 
    removeEventHandler("onClientRender", gRoot, Scoreboard) 
    showPlayerHudComponent("all", true) 
    showChat(true) 
  end 
end 
bindKey("tab","both",open)

You haven't posted the full script.

getPlayersOnline = function () 
  local playersOnline = getElementsByType ( "player" ) 
  local playersO = 0 
  for count, playerOn in pairs(playersOnline) do 
    playersO = playersO + 1 
  end 
  return playersO 
end

That function is completely useless, you can simply use:

playersO = #getElementsByType ( "player" )

About the other problem, try this:

function Scoreboard() 
    dxDrawImage(X,Y,Width,Height, "images/back.png") 
    dxDrawText("Name", X+60, Y+10, Width,Height, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default-bold", "left", "top", false, false, true, false, false) 
    dxDrawText(getPlayersOnline().."/50" ,X+525, Y-15, Width,Height, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default-bold", "left", "top", false, false, false, false, false) 
    dxDrawText("Ping", X+480, Y+10, Width, Height, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default-bold", "left", "top", false, false, true, false, false) 
    dxDrawText("Geld", X+210, Y+10,  Width, Height, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default-bold", "left", "top", false, false, true, false, false) 
    dxDrawText("Team", X+350, Y+10,  Width, Height, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default-bold", "left", "top", false, false, true, false, false)   
  
  local players = getElementsByType ( "player" ) 
  local playas = 0 
  local playerheight = 20 
  for amt, player in pairs(players) do 
    playas = playas + 1 
    if (playas <= 20) then 
      local ping = getPlayerPing(player) 
        local teamp = getPlayerTeam(player) 
        local teamn = getTeamName(teamp) 
        local money = tonumber ( getElementData(player, "playerMoney") ) or 0 
      if (ping >= 250) then 
    r,g,b = 255,0,0 
      elseif (ping >= 120) then 
    r,g,b = 255,69,0 
      else      
    r,g,b = 0,255,0     
      end       
      dxDrawText(getPlayerName ( player ), X+60,Y+60+playerheight*(amt-1), Width,Height, tocolor(255,255,255), 1 , "default-bold","left", "top",false, false,true,true)  
      dxDrawText(ping,X+480,Y+60+playerheight*(amt-1), Width, Height, tocolor(r,g,b), 1, "default","left", "top",false,false,true,true) 
      dxDrawText( tostring ( money ) .." $", X+210,Y+60+playerheight*(amt-1),Width, Height, tocolor(255,255,255), 1, "default","left", "top",false, false, true, true) 
      dxDrawText(teamn, X+350,Y+60+playerheight*(amt-1),Width, Height, tocolor(255,255,255), 1, "default","left", "top",false, false, true, true) 
    end 
  end 
end

playersO = #getElementsByType ( "player" )
