[HELP] Lock the car respawn

[IndeX']

Hello, my question is this. I want to know if there is any resource that blocks auto respawn in certain "zones".

For example: In CJ that people can not choose from the menu of auto F1.

Is this possible?.

[justn]

What do you mean ? are you talking about the freeroam resource ?

If yes then you can edit the places to respawn in the meta.xml file.

Sure, I have a freeroam server, and I want to do is that in certain areas I choose coordinate vehicles can not choose from the menu of F1.

( sorry for my english )

Ok, I just made a standalone script that will hide the panel immediatly if a player opens it in a forbidden area.

You have to put this in your gamemode that must runs with the freeroam/play resource:

local forbiddenAreas = { 
    --x, y, width, height 
    {0, 0, 50, 50}, --example1 (needs a ',' because it's not the last) 
    {-500, -1613, 50, 50} --example2 (no need a ',' because it's the last) 
} 
  
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, function() 
    for k, i in ipairs(forbiddenAreas) do 
        local col = createColRectangle(i[1], i[2], i[3], i[4]) 
         
        addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", root, function ( hitElement ) 
            if getElementType(hitElement) ~= "player" then return end 
            setElementData(hitElement, "isInForbiddenArea", true) 
        end) 
        addEventHandler("onColShapeLeave" root, function( leaveElement ) 
            if getElementType(leaveElement) ~= "player" then return end 
            setElementData(leaveElement, "isInForbiddenArea", false) 
        end) 
  
    end 
end) 
  
addeEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, function() 
    bindKey(source, "f1", "down" openF1) 
end) 
  
function openF1( player, preventLoop ) 
    if preventLoop == false and getElementData(player, "isInForbiddenArea") then 
        executeCommandHandler("fr", player, true) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("fr", openF1) 

(I didn't test the code, quote the errors if any.)

Hi Citizen thanks for taking the time to make that script.

There are syntax errors. With respect to the operation of the code, I could not make it work

  
local forbiddenAreas = { 
    --x, y, width, height 
    {1801, -1897, 250, 250}, --example1 (needs a ',' because it's not the last) 
    {-500, -1613, 50, 50} --example2 (no need a ',' because it's the last) 
} 
  
addEventHandler('onResourceStart', resourceRoot, function() 
    for k, i in ipairs(forbiddenAreas) do 
        local col = createColRectangle(i[1], i[2], i[3], i[4]) 
        
        addEventHandler('onColShapeHit', root, function ( hitElement ) 
            if getElementType(hitElement) ~= 'player' then return end 
            setElementData(hitElement, 'isInForbiddenArea', true) 
        end) 
        addEventHandler('onColShapeLeave', root, function( leaveElement ) 
            if getElementType(leaveElement) ~= 'player' then return end 
            setElementData(leaveElement, 'isInForbiddenArea', false) 
        end) 
  
    end 
end) 
  
addEventHandler('onPlayerJoin', root, function() 
    bindKey(source, 'f1', 'down', openF1) 
end) 
  
function openF1( player, preventLoop ) 
    if preventLoop == false and getElementData(player, 'isInForbiddenArea') then 
        executeCommandHandler('fr', player, true) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler('fr', openF1)

There are syntax errors.

Tell me the errors then

EDIT:

Try again with this:

local forbiddenAreas = { 
    --x, y, width, height 
    {0, 0, 50, 50}, --example1 (needs a ',' because it's not the last) 
    {-500, -1613, 50, 50} --example2 (no need a ',' because it's the last) 
} 
  
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, function() 
    for k, i in ipairs(forbiddenAreas) do 
        local col = createColRectangle(i[1], i[2], i[3], i[4]) 
  
        addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", col, function ( hitElement ) 
            if getElementType(hitElement) ~= "player" then return end 
            setElementData(hitElement, "isInForbiddenArea", true) 
            outputChatBox("You entered in the forbidden area !", hitElement) 
        end) 
        addEventHandler("onColShapeLeave" col, function( leaveElement ) 
            if getElementType(leaveElement) ~= "player" then return end 
            setElementData(leaveElement, "isInForbiddenArea", false) 
            outputChatBox("You left the forbidden area !", leaveElement) 
        end) 
  
    end 
end) 
  
addeEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, function() 
    bindKey(source, "f1", "down" openF1) 
end) 
  
function openF1( player, preventLoop ) 
    if preventLoop ~= true and getElementData(player, "isInForbiddenArea") then 
        executeCommandHandler("fr", player, true) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("fr", openF1) 

I used root instead of col for the colshape events and replaced preventLoop == false with preventLoop ~= true.

I also added 2 outputs to let you be sure you really are in a forbidden area.

syntax error, Example: 

  
Line 16: 
addEventHandler("onColShapeLeave" col, function( leaveElement ) 
--> 
addEventHandler("onColShapeLeave", col, function( leaveElement ) 
  

  
Line 25: 
addeEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, function() 
--> 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, function() 
  

  
Line 26: 
bindKey(source, "f1", "down" openF1) 
--> 
bindKey(source, "f1", "down", openF1)

The script seems to work, but not as it should:

Warning:

Thanks for your time

Ah my bad, just replace lines 29 to 34 with this:

local randomSecret = "secret_" + math.random(10000) --kind of bypass prevention 
function openF1( player, cmd, preventLoop ) 
    if preventLoop ~= randomSecret and getElementData(player, "isInForbiddenArea") then 
        executeCommandHandler("fr", player, randomSecret) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("fr", openF1) 

I added a random generated string to be used instead of "true" (as a string) because everyone would be able to bypass it by doing /fr true

[IndeX']

still not working as it should

but taking the match.random or secret, the script is activated but the menu is appearing F1

[Citizen]

Replace + with .. for the randomSecret

[IndeX']

I already made replacement

but the menu still appears

thanks for your time

Ok I stopped trying to make it without testing it myself (didn't know I would get problems I had).

I made it work, but there is something strange that should be reported to the bugtracker:

the executeCommandHandler doesn't execute the comands on the other side (only tested from server-side to client side commands, but I'm pretty sure the other way doesn't work too).

I mean that if I use executeCommandHandler("fr", player) on the server-side, then it will not execute this commands on the client-side of that player, only addCommandHandler for "fr" on the server-side only will work.

So if you understood right, I had to make a triggerClientEvent to then run the executeCommandHandler on the client-side (as the freeroam resource added this command on the client-side).

server:

function bindF1( param ) 
    if param then 
        for k, i in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
            bindKey(i, "f1", "down", openF1) 
        end 
    else 
        bindKey(source, "f1", "down", openF1) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, bindF1) 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, bindF1) 
  
local randomSecret = "secret_" .. math.random(10000) --kind of bypass prevention 
function openF1( player, cmd, preventLoop ) 
    if preventLoop ~= randomSecret and getElementData(player, "isInForbiddenArea") then 
        triggerClientEvent("forcePressF1", player, randomSecret) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("fr", openF1) 

client:

addEvent("forcePressF1", true) 
addEventHandler("forcePressF1", root, function ( secret ) 
    executeCommandHandler("fr", secret) 
end) 

I have tested it and it works, but if you spam the F1 key, then you will just see it blicking, but you still can't use it

[IndeX']

Thank you very much for your time

[Citizen]

No problem, and sorry because this script should have work since my 1st post (but wouldn't support a restart for players already in game and using F1 key).

I didn't know the bug (I guess it's a non scripting behaviour) about that executeCommandHandler.

Have fun coding.

From PMs:

Hi, how you doing?

wanted to talk about the script block F1(freeroam), is there anyway to create the option to lock vehicles and not to block the entire menu?...

I say this because I had a problem when loading the script to the server, when I approached the area blocked the F1 opened me and I just closed the whole menu, but I only spent ami if that happened to everyone

--Sorry for my english

Try with this: (check the comments to see what I added)

server:

local forbiddenAreas = { 
    {0, 0, 50, 50}, 
    {-500, -1613, 50, 50} 
} 
  
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, function() 
    for k, i in ipairs(forbiddenAreas) do 
        local col = createColRectangle(i[1], i[2], i[3], i[4]) 
        
        addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", root, function ( hitElement ) 
            if getElementType(hitElement) ~= "player" then return end 
            setElementData(hitElement, "isInForbiddenArea", true) 
            if getElementData(hitElement, "isF1MenuOpened") then                -- added 
                triggerClientEvent("forcePressF1", hitElement, randomSecret)    -- added 
            end                                                                 -- added 
        end) 
        addEventHandler("onColShapeLeave" root, function( leaveElement ) 
            if getElementType(leaveElement) ~= "player" then return end 
            setElementData(leaveElement, "isInForbiddenArea", false) 
        end) 
  
    end 
end) 
  
function bindF1( param ) 
    if param then 
        for k, i in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
            bindKey(i, "f1", "down", openF1) 
        end 
    else 
        bindKey(source, "f1", "down", openF1) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, bindF1) 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, bindF1) 
  
local randomSecret = "secret_" .. math.random(10000) 
function openF1( player, cmd, preventLoop ) 
    setElementData(hitElement, "isF1MenuOpened", true) -- added 
    if preventLoop ~= randomSecret and getElementData(player, "isInForbiddenArea") then 
        triggerClientEvent("forcePressF1", player, randomSecret) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("fr", openF1) 

client:

addEvent("forcePressF1", true) 
addEventHandler("forcePressF1", root, function ( secret ) 
    executeCommandHandler("fr", secret) 
    setElementData(localPlayer, "isF1MenuOpened", false)   -- added 
end) 

If this is not working properly, then I'll just do the whole thing using another way.

I didn't want to make modifications into the freeroam resource itself to keep this modification seperated.

So I'll just export 2 freeroam functions and use them from your resource.
