New Chat

Thanks man its working

Alright, nice to see I didn't make mistake in that system.

Please read the code and try to understand what's going on there. If there is something that you aren't really sure about what is it for, please ask here.

   addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", resourceRoot, 
        function ( ) 
            for _, player in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do -- Loop all the players. 
                bindKey ( player, "U", "down", "chatbox", "gangChat" ) -- Bind the key "U" to the "GangChat" command. 
            end 
        end 
    ) 
      
    addEventHandler ( "onPlayerJoin", root, 
        function ( ) 
            bindKey ( source, "U", "down", "chatbox", "gangChat" ) -- Bind the key "U" to the "GangChat" command. 
        end 
    ) 
      
    function gangChat ( thePlayer, _, ... ) 
        local isInvited = getElementData ( thePlayer, "invited" ) or false 
        if ( isInvited ) then 
            local text = table.concat ( { ... }, " " ) 
            if ( #text > 0 ) then 
                outputChatBox ("#FF32AA (GANG) "..getPlayerName(thePlayer)..": #FFFFFF" ..text, thePlayer, 255, 255, 255, true ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
    addCommandHandler ( "gangChat", gangChat ) 
    
    function invitePlayer ( thePlayer, _, playerName ) 
        if not playerName then return end 
        local playerToInvite = getPlayerFromName(playerName) 
        
        if ( isElement ( playerToInvite ) ) and getElementType( argument ) == "player" then  
            setElementData ( playerToInvite, "invited", true ) 
            outputChatBox ( "You have been invited to the chat.", playerToInvite) 
        else 
            outputChatBox ( "There is no such a player!", thePlayer ) 
        end 
    end 
    addCommandHandler ( "invite", invitePlayer ) 
  

If he would type any element then it will accept it. It must be player.

Sorry, one thing, is there a way to make this?

When i invite a player to gang Chat it automatically add me and him in the chat, thanks.

Which script are you using ?

[-.Paradox.-]

You don't want to use other resources but you can't do it yourself either even after we told you the main idea and the functions you would have to use.

Learn to script simple stuff first. Check the Introduction to Scripting available on the wiki main page.

This script may have bugs since I didn't test it.

This one but i don't want to create a gang for each gang chat, only when i invite player, automatically add me and him to the gang chat without creating a gang or something like that, thanks for help!

[-.Paradox.-]

help?

[Citizen]

try to modify my code then.

[-.Paradox.-]

If i knew how, i would do it without asking you, so please can you help me?

[Citizen]

Because you didn't read the code. Read it carefully with the wiki and try to modify it.

We aren't here to script your server.

At least try.
