Marker Trigger Command

[CodyLewis]

How can I make a marker trigger command?

I want to make it so if you enter a garage with a marker it will trigger the command handlingeditor but I can't figure out how to do it can some one please tell me how to do this?

[Bonsai]

Instead of triggering a command u just call the function that is attached to it.

If thats what u mean.

[CodyLewis]

What I mean is how can I make it trigger the command

I changed command for hedit and dont want people using it without going to garage

[Bonsai]

Hmm, show the Code.

[CodyLewis]

I havent got any Code

Cant find anything on it

[CodyLewis]

All I want to Do is make a marker that when u hit it triggers command for you and brings up gui

[pa3ck]

executeCommandHandler - don't forget to define the player element.

[CodyLewis]

Ok So How can I make it so when I hit marker it does it?

[Bonsai]

executeCommandHandler - don't forget to define the player element.

But it would still be possible to use the command without being inside that marker, wouldn't it?

[CodyLewis]

Im going to have a secret command that the marker will trigger

[pa3ck]

There is an other way. Go to the 'hedit' folder and open up your meta.xml file.

Put this line anywhere and save it:

function="toggleEditor" type="client"/> --> Client side only. 

You can now toggle the GUI from any resource like so:

marker = createMarker( 0, 0, 3, "cylinder", 1 ) 
  
addEventHandler('onClientMarkerHit', marker, function() 
    exports.hedit:toggleEditor() 
end) 
  

[CodyLewis]

Ok I'll try to see if that works

[pa3ck]

If you don't want the players to be able to use the command and bind ( command 'hedit' and the 'b' key ), go to this folder: hedit\client\gui.

Open up 'guicreator.lua' and comment out lines 72, 73, so it should look like:

--bindKey ( getUserConfig ( "usedKey" ), "down", toggleEditor ) 
--addCommandHandler ( getUserConfig ( "usedCommand" ), toggleEditor ) 

[CodyLewis]

it isnt working the marking is apearing but when I drive car into it nothing happens

[pa3ck]

That's impossible. Did you restart hedit after editing the meta.xml?

[CodyLewis]

Yes I did

[CodyLewis]

wait I might of found problem

[CodyLewis]

Ok It works Your the best

[pa3ck]

Okay, no problem.

[CodyLewis]

wait one thing when I hit it it pops up for every one

[pa3ck]

marker = createMarker( 0, 0, 3, "cylinder", 1 ) 
  
addEventHandler('onClientMarkerHit', marker, function( hitElement) 
    if hitElement == localPlayer or hitElement == getPedOccupiedVehicle ( localPlayer ) and getVehicleController( hitElement ) == localPlayer then 
        exports.hedit:toggleEditor() 
    end 
end)

ok thx

marker = createMarker( 0, 0, 3, "cylinder", 1 ) 
  
addEventHandler('onClientMarkerHit', marker, function( hitElement) 
    if hitElement == localPlayer or hitElement == getPedOccupiedVehicle ( localPlayer ) then 
        exports.hedit:toggleEditor() 
    end 
end) 

Nope, it will do the same.

@CodeLewis: check if the function toggleEditor has arguments. Maybe you can specify the player to show it.

Otherwise, modify that function to do so.

Huh? Why would it? hitElement is the element that has entered the marker, I don't get it why would it be the same.

pa3ck's script works
