[Help]Police comp

[Chickelon12]

I have made a police computer to tell me how many arrests i got and to show all criminals online in the server,, problem is that it totally not working, i checked the code many times cannot get the problem..

  
--Client 
function createwindow(theAccount, getdata) 
    if ( guiGetVisible ( window1 ) == false ) then 
    playerTeam = getPlayerTeam ( source ) 
    if getTeamName(playerTeam) == "Police" then  
    guiSetVisible (window1, true) 
    triggerServerEvent ( "setarrests", localPlayer, playerTeam)  
    guiSetText ( arrests_lab2, getdata ) 
else 
    if ( guiGetVisible ( window1 ) == true ) then 
    guiSetVisible (window1, false) 
end 
end 
end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "pcomp", createwindow ) 

  
--Server 
function getdatas() 
    theAccount = getPlayerAccount ( source ) 
    local getdata = getAccountData(theAccount, "Arrests.count") 
end 
addEvent("setarrests", true) 
addEventHandler("setarrests", root, getdatas) 

There is no shown errors

( i know my code is nasty, i am still learning )

Okey, well. You are tirggering to server, getting data and what's next?

[Chickelon12]

setting the arrests label text, to the player's data

    local getdata = getAccountData(theAccount, "Arrests.count") 

    guiSetText ( arrests_lab2, getdata )

If you want to set a text on the client-side, you should be triggering over to the client-side event.

try this:

--Client 
function createwindow() 
    if not guiGetVisible ( window1 ) then 
        local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam ( localPlayer ) 
        if getTeamName(playerTeam) == "Police" then 
            guiSetVisible (window1, true) 
            triggerServerEvent ( "setarrests", localPlayer, playerTeam) 
        end 
    else 
        guiSetVisible (window1, false) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "pcomp", createwindow ) 
  
addEvent("getArrestData",true) 
function getArrestData(data) 
    guiSetText ( arrests_lab2, data ) 
end 
addEventHandler("getArrestData",root,getArrestData) 
  
--Server 
function getdatas() 
    local theAccount = getPlayerAccount ( source ) 
    local getdata = getAccountData(theAccount, "Arrests.count") or "0" 
    triggerClientEvent(client,"getArrestData",client,tostring(getdata)) 
end 
addEvent("setarrests", true) 
addEventHandler("setarrests", root, getdatas)

Not working

bad argument @ 'guiSetText' [expected string at argument 2, got boolean]

[Jaysds1]

Try the code above again.

The only reason why you're getting that error is because the Account Data "Arrest.Count" is false, or doesn't exist, so I made the script return either the number of arrests or 0.

[Chickelon12]

bad argument @ 'getPlayerTeam' [expected player argument 1, got nil]

bad argument @ 'getTeamName'

[Jaysds1]

Try this now:

--Client 
function createwindow() 
    if not guiGetVisible ( window1 ) then 
        local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam ( localPlayer ) 
        if getTeamName(playerTeam) == "Police" then 
            guiSetVisible (window1, true) 
            triggerServerEvent ( "setarrests", localPlayer, playerTeam) 
        end 
    else 
        guiSetVisible (window1, false) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "pcomp", createwindow ) 
  
addEvent("getArrestData",true) 
function getArrestData(data) 
    guiSetText ( arrests_lab2, data ) 
end 
addEventHandler("getArrestData",root,getArrestData) 
  
--Server 
function getdatas() 
    local theAccount = getPlayerAccount ( source ) 
    local getdata = getAccountData(theAccount, "Arrests.count") or "0" 
    triggerClientEvent(client,"getArrestData",client,tostring(getdata)) 
end 
addEvent("setarrests", true) 
addEventHandler("setarrests", root, getdatas)

Now it's working thanks,, just a question is anyone going to open the gui will find his account data (arrests.count) or mine ??

[$@!m HeRO]

ofc his own, if he's logged in with his own account... your account data will be save in your account!

[Chickelon12]

i am not talking about the data, i am talking about the 'guiSetText', will it change the text to the my data so i only can see it, or it changes the text to everyone ?

[Jaysds1]

It changes the text only for you, no one else.
