An unknown Error

[SkrillexX]

Greetings , as /debugscript 3 said , there's an error somewhere in line 4 , problem is that i'm unable to find it.

function HitMarker(thePlayer,theMarker ) 
local thePlayer = getLocalPlayer() 
local thePlayerPos = getElementPosition(thePlayer) 
 if (thePlayerPos == x ,y ,z) then 
 outputChatBox ("keep inside the Marker and type /robtime to know what's the remaining time" ,thePlayer ,0 ,250 ,0 ,false ) 
 dxDrawText("ROBBERY IS PROGRESSING ( 50000$ )", 279, 143, 661, 201, tocolor(255, 0, 0, 255), 2.00, "pricedown", "left", "top", false, false, true, false, false) 
 setTime ( 00 , 00 ) 
 else return 
 end 
end 
addEventHandler("OnClientMarkerHit" ,getRootElement() ,HitMarker ) 

btw i precised the "x ,y ,z" on a previous function

Here's debugscript's message :

ERROR; Loading Script Failed : Rob\Robbery.lua:4:')' expected near '.'

1: getElementPosition returns 3 values: x, y and z.

2: "OnClientMarkerHit" is wrong, the event name is "onClientMarkerHit".

3: To see if the player is inside the marker use: isElementWithinMarker.

I tried to correct the code , check it out , i added the first part of it.

function RobMarker(thePlayer) 
local pos = 281.12664794922 ,-1768.4904785156 ,4.5230431556702  
local theMarker = createMarker ( pos, "checkpoint" ,4.0 ,255 ,0 ,0 ) 
createBlip ( pos ,32 ,2 ,255 ,0 ,0 ,255 ,0 ) 
setTimer (RobMarker , 600000 ,0 ) 
end 
addEventHandler ("onClientResourceStart" ,getRootElement() ,RobMarker) 
  
function HitMarker(thePlayer,theMarker ) 
local thePlayer = getLocalPlayer() 
local markercheck = isElementWithinMarker(thePlayer ,theMarker ) 
 if ( markercheck ) then 
 outputChatBox ("keep inside the Marker and type /robtime to know what's the remaining time" ,thePlayer ,0 ,250 ,0 ,false ) 
 dxDrawText("ROBBERY IS PROGRESSING ( 50000$ )", 279, 143, 661, 201, tocolor(255, 0, 0, 255), 2.00, "pricedown", "left", "top", false, false, true, false, false) 
 setTime ( 00 , 00 ) 
 else return 
 end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientMarkerHit" ,getRootElement() ,HitMarker )

dxDrawText requires of the "onClientRender" event in order to keep drawing it.

[SkrillexX]

I can't see a way of adding onClientRender , What do you think

[Karuzo]

Make a function inside of the function and add the event.

[SkrillexX]

Euh , i don't think this code is correct but anyways .. Correct me if there's mistakes

  
function HitMarker(thePlayer,theMarker ) 
local thePlayer = getLocalPlayer() 
local markercheck = isElementWithinMarker(thePlayer ,theMarker ) 
end  
addEventHandler("onClientMarkerHit" ,getRootElement() ,HitMarker ) 
 function dxDraw() 
  if ( markercheck ) then 
  outputChatBox ("keep inside the Marker and type /robtime to know what's the remaining time" ,thePlayer ,0 ,250 ,0 ,false ) 
  dxDrawText("ROBBERY IS PROGRESSING ( 50000$ )", 279, 143, 661, 201, tocolor(255, 0, 0, 255), 2.00, "pricedown", "left", "top", false, false, true, false, false) 
  setTime ( 00 , 00 ) 
  else return 
  end 
 end 
addEventHandler("onClientRender" ,getRootElement() ,dxDraw ) 
  

[Castillo]

function HitMarker ( thePlayer ) 
    if ( thePlayer == localPlayer and source == theMarker ) then 
        addEventHandler ( "onClientRender" ,getRootElement(), dxDraw ) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientMarkerHit" ,getRootElement(), HitMarker ) 
  
function dxDraw ( ) 
    if isElementWithinMarker ( localPlayer, theMarker ) then 
        outputChatBox ( "keep inside the Marker and type /robtime to know what's the remaining time", 0, 250, 0 ) 
        dxDrawText ( "ROBBERY IS PROGRESSING ( 50000$ )", 279, 143, 661, 201, tocolor(255, 0, 0, 255), 2.00, "pricedown", "left", "top", false, false, true, false, false ) 
    end 
end 

I removed setTime because that function sets the game time, maybe you thought it did something else?

[SkrillexX]

No , in fact , It makes the ingame time 00:00 So that i can calculate the Robbery's finish time which will be 10:00 ( 5 minutes later )

[Castillo]

Yes, but if you put it inside the onClientRender event, it'll be setting the time on every render.

[SkrillexX]

I want to make the time 00:00 Each time the player hits the marker

[Castillo]

Use setTime after you add the "onClientRender" event.

[SkrillexX]

Just like that ?

  
function HitMarker ( thePlayer ) 
    if ( thePlayer == localPlayer and source == theMarker ) then 
        addEventHandler ( "onClientRender" ,getRootElement(), dxDraw ) 
    end 
end 
setTime ( 00 ,00 )

Hummm almost lol. Put it right next to the addEventHandler.
