[SOLVED] Weapon Check

[Yunix]

Is there a function that checks if the player is holding a gun?

Or is there any other way to do so?

You can use 'getPedWeapon'.

Thanks, i searched the wiki for "weapon" but that one didn't came across.

I made a function for checking the player's weapons when scrolling the weapon but it doesn't seem to work..

local guntable = { 23, 30, 32, 20, 9 } -- random id's 
  
function weaponDisable() 
    weapon = getPedWeapon(localPlayer) 
     
    if guntable[weapon] then 
    else 
        cancelEvent() 
    end  
end 
addEventHandler ("onClientPlayerWeaponSwitch", getRootElement(), weaponDisable) 

Someone able to help me with this?

try this:

local guntable = { 23, 30, 32, 20, 9 } -- random id's 
  
function weaponDisable(preSlot) 
    local weapon = getPedWeapon(localPlayer) 
    
    if not guntable[weapon] then 
        setPedWeaponSlot(localPlayer,preSlot) 
    end  
end 
addEventHandler ("onClientPlayerWeaponSwitch",localPlayer, weaponDisable) --only trigger this event for local player

Tried it, and it does not work.

EDIT: It doesn't allow the scrolling even when scrolling to a allowed weapon.

Isn't that what you wanted?

The function is triggered when a player tries to switch to a weapon; and in the function, if the player doesn't have the valid weapon that's not in the table then it switches the player weapon back to what they had before.

[Yunix]

Well, what i mean is when you have the valid weapon it doesn't allow you.

Bump.

Try this

local guntable = {  
    [23]=true,  
    [30]=true,  
    [32]=true,  
    [20]=true,  
    [9]=true  
} 
  
function weaponDisable(preSlot) 
    local weapon = getPedWeapon(localPlayer) 
    if not guntable[weapon] then 
        setPedWeaponSlot(localPlayer,preSlot) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ("onClientPlayerWeaponSwitch",localPlayer, weaponDisable) --only trigger this event for local player 

[Yunix]

Doesn't work, it does not allow to scroll with any weapon

[.:HyPeX:.]

This is a bit inneficient due to the loop, but try it.

local guntable = { 23, 30, 32, 20, 9 } 
  
function weaponDisable(preSlot, NewSlot) 
    local weapon = getPedWeapon(getLocalPlayer()) 
    clear = nil 
        for i,v in pairs(guntable) do 
        if v == weapon then 
        clear = true 
        end 
        end 
    if clear then 
    pre = nil 
        for i,v in pairs(guntable) do 
        if preSlot == v then 
        pre = true 
        end 
        end 
            if pre then 
            setPedWeaponSlot(getLocalPlayer(),preSlot) 
            else 
            setPedWeaponSlot(getLocalPlayer(), guntable[math.random(#guntable)]) 
            end 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ("onClientPlayerWeaponSwitch",getRootElement(), weaponDisable)

Doesn't work, every weapon is now allowed

Of course it isn't working it is much more complicated then that.

You can try this, which I am 10% sure it will work. I have build something like this before, except I can't remember me how I wrote it.

local gunTable = { 23, 30, 32, 20, 9 } 
local weaponDisable = function (slotChange) 
    local validSlots = {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12} 
    local lastSlot = getPedWeaponSlot ( localPlayer ) 
     
    for slot=0,12 do 
        local weapon = getPedWeapon(localPlayer,slot) 
        for wI=#gunTable,1,-1 do--inverse loop > table.remove 
            if weapon == gunTable[wI] then 
                table.remove(validSlots,slot) 
                break 
            end 
        end 
    end 
     
    local lastSlotFound = false 
     
    if slotChange == 1 then 
        local saveTheLastPositions = {} 
        for i=1,#validSlots do-- don't break this loop 
            local slot = validSlots[i] 
            if slot == lastSlot then 
                lastSlotFound = i 
            end 
            saveTheLastPositions[i]=slot 
        end 
        if lastSlotFound then 
            if saveTheLastPositions[lastSlotFound+1] then 
                setPedWeaponSlot(localPlayer,saveTheLastPositions[lastSlotFound+1]) 
            elseif saveTheLastPositions[1] then 
                setPedWeaponSlot(localPlayer,saveTheLastPositions[1]) 
            else 
                error("something went very bad....") 
            end 
        elseif saveTheLastPositions[1] then 
            error("player is not using a valid slot.") 
            setPedWeaponSlot(localPlayer,saveTheLastPositions[1]) 
        end 
         
    elseif slotChange == -1 then  
        local saveTheLastPositions = {} 
        for i=#validSlots,1,-1 do-- don't break this loop 
            local slot = validSlots[i] 
            if slot == lastSlot then 
                lastSlotFound = i 
            end 
            saveTheLastPositions[i]=slot 
        end 
        if lastSlotFound then 
            if saveTheLastPositions[lastSlotFound-1] then 
                setPedWeaponSlot(localPlayer,saveTheLastPositions[lastSlotFound-1]) 
            elseif saveTheLastPositions[#saveTheLastPositions] then 
                setPedWeaponSlot(localPlayer,saveTheLastPositions[#saveTheLastPositions]) 
            else 
                error("something went very bad....") 
            end 
        elseif saveTheLastPositions[#saveTheLastPositions] then 
            error("player is not using a valid slot.") 
            setPedWeaponSlot(localPlayer,saveTheLastPositions[#saveTheLastPositions]) 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart",resourceRoot, 
function () 
    bindKey("next_weapon","both",weaponDisable,1) 
    bindKey("previous_weapon","both",weaponDisable,-1) 
end) 
  
  
  
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStop",resourceRoot, 
function () 
    toggleControl ("next_weapon", true ) 
    toggleControl ("previous_weapon", true ) 
end) 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root, 
function () 
    toggleControl ("next_weapon", false ) 
    toggleControl ("previous_weapon", false ) 
end)

Oh well, i already fixed it lol, and it's much simpler then that.
