function removeblips () 
local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam ( source ) 
if playerTeam ~= "Criminal" then 
           destroyElement ( robhouseMarker ) 
           destroyElement ( robhouseBlip ) 
           end 
           end 

Which Event should i add ?

[WhoAmI]

I don't know if It works, but

_setPlayerTeam = setPlayerTeam 
  
addEvent( "onPlayerChangeTeam", true ) 
  
function setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
    triggerEvent ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, thePlayer, theTeam )  
    return _setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
end 

And then

addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root,  
    function ( player, team ) 
       outputChatBox ( getPlayerName ( player ) .. ": " .. getTeamName ( team ) ) 
    end 
) 

It should output message 'nick: team name'.

WhoAmI, do u understand what i mean ? i mean if a Player in Criminal Team and changed his Team to any other team for example like civilian, if so then destroyElement ( Element )

that what i mean.

[WhoAmI]

So use my event.

    addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, 
        function ( player, team ) 
           --here destroyElement 
        end 
    ) 

[Hell-Mate]

So use my event.

    addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, 
        function ( player, team ) 
           --here destroyElement 
        end 
    ) 

well, what about the first code ? >>

_setPlayerTeam = setPlayerTeam 
  
addEvent( "onPlayerChangeTeam", true ) 
  
function setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
    triggerEvent ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, thePlayer, theTeam )  
    return _setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
end 

i really dont understand this setPlayerTeam thingy ?? Can u explain ?

[WhoAmI]

Well, the event 'onPlayerChangeTeam' will be active when you would use setPlayerTeam.

[Hell-Mate]

hmm so this will be how it looks ?

addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, 
        function ( player, team ) 
local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam ( source ) 
if playerTeam ~= "Criminal" then 
           destroyElement ( robhouseMarker ) 
           destroyElement ( robhouseBlip ) 
           end 
           end) 

[WhoAmI]

It will looks like this

addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, 
    function ( player, team ) 
        local teamName = getTeamName ( team ) 
        if teamName ~= "Criminal" then 
            destroyElement ( robhouseMarker ) 
            destroyElement ( robhouseBlip ) 
        end 
    end 
)

-- Tested but not working i just changed my team from admin panel to another team but Element not destroyed ..

_setPlayerTeam = setPlayerTeam 
  
addEvent( "onPlayerChangeTeam", true ) 
  
function setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
    triggerEvent ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, thePlayer, theTeam )  
    return _setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
end 
  
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, 
        function ( player, team ) 
local playerTeam = getTeamName ( team ) 
if playerTeam ~= "Criminal" then 
           destroyElement ( robhouseMarker ) 
           destroyElement ( robhouseBlip ) 
           end 
           end) 

[WhoAmI]

It will works, If you change team by using setPlayerTeam function.

[Hell-Mate]

i just copied your code exactly, and nothing

    _setPlayerTeam = setPlayerTeam 
  
addEvent( "onPlayerChangeTeam", true ) 
  
function setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
    triggerEvent ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, thePlayer, theTeam )  
    return _setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
end 
  
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, 
    function ( player, team ) 
        local teamName = getTeamName ( team ) 
        if teamName ~= "Criminal" then 
            destroyElement ( robhouseMarker ) 
            destroyElement ( robhouseBlip ) 
        end 
    end 
) 

[WhoAmI]

But read my post again. If you want it works, you must use setPlayerTeam function, not from admin panel!!

[Hell-Mate]

Same. i just have another job that have this >

setPlayerTeam ( source, getTeamFromName ( "Civilian" ) ) 

i got the job and my team has been civilian and elements didn't destroy

[Citizen]

It will looks like this

addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, 
    function ( player, team ) 
        local teamName = getTeamName ( team ) 
        if teamName ~= "Criminal" then 
            destroyElement ( robhouseMarker ) 
            destroyElement ( robhouseBlip ) 
        end 
    end 
) 

No, more like this: (I modified a bit the setPlayerTeam from WhoAmI)

_setPlayerTeam = setPlayerTeam 
  
addEvent( "onPlayerChangeTeam", true ) 
  
function setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
    if not thePlayer or not theTeam then return false end 
    local oldTeam = getPlayerTeam( thePlayer ) 
    triggerEvent ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", thePlayer, theTeam, oldTeam ) 
    return _setPlayerTeam ( thePlayer, theTeam ) 
end 
  
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChangeTeam", root, 
    function ( theNewTeam, theOldTeam ) 
        local teamName = getTeamName( theNewTeam ) 
        if teamName ~= "Criminal" then 
            destroyElement ( robhouseMarker ) 
            destroyElement ( robhouseBlip ) 
        end 
    end 
) 

[WhoAmI]

Oh well, thats better!

[Hell-Mate]

Tested and nothings Elements not getting destroyed

[WhoAmI]

How you are setting player team?

[Hell-Mate]

with another job, with this line >>

setPlayerTeam ( source, getTeamFromName ( "Civilian" ) ) 

[WhoAmI]

If it doesn't work try to export that function.

[Hell-Mate]

I have no idea about exporting

[WhoAmI]

exports.resource_name:setPlayerTeam( source, getTeamFromName ( "Civilian" ) ) 

[Hell-Mate]

and remove the other lines that you wrote ? and the team is Criminal not Civilian ..

Edited March 2, 2014 by Guest

[WhoAmI]

No, no. Leave them alone

[Hell-Mate]

then where should i add this line ?

[WhoAmI]

Instead of

    setPlayerTeam ( source, getTeamFromName ( "Civilian" ) ) 

And chagnder resource_name to name of resource, where you got this event.
