Cant get colshape variable name

[harryh]

I cannot seem to get the colshape variable name and assign it to setElementData. What I am trying to do is set the the colshape to harvested(true) so when you go back though that colshape it says "this has already been harvested". So basically if I harvest colshape wc, so I can still harvest colshape wc2.

  
wc = colshape blah 
wc2 = colshape blah 
getHarvested = getElementData( element, "isHarvested" ) 
            if (getHarvested == true ) then 
                outputChatBox("Weed has already been harvested!", element) 
            else 
                if ( vehicleID == 532 ) then 
                    outputChatBox( tostring( getHarvested ) ) --debug 
                    harvestWeed ( ) 
                    sHar = setElementData( getElementColShape ( element ), "isHarvested", true)

I don't really get it, mind posting the full script?

"element" is the player that hit the colshape, not the colshape.

[harryh]

"element" is the player that hit the colshape, not the colshape.

Oh yeah woops. wrong code.

Do you know how I would be able to set the setElementData to the colshape so if they go in it again it cannot be harvested?

What I want to do is to assign setElementData to the colshape so if the player tries to harvest from the say colshape again it will say its already harvested.

function weedhit ( element, matchingDimension ) 
    if ( isElement ( element ) and matchingDimension and getElementType ( element ) == "player" ) then 
        thePlayer = getPlayerName(element) 
        if isPedInVehicle ( element ) then 
            local vehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( element ) 
            local vehicleID = getElementModel ( vehicle ) 
            getHarvested = getElementData( getElementColShape ( element ), "isHarvested" ) 
            if (getHarvested == 1 ) then 
                outputChatBox("Weed has already been harvested!", element) 
            else 
                if ( vehicleID == 532 ) then 
                    outputChatBox( tostring( getHarvested ) ) 
                    harvestWeed ( thePlayer ) 
                    sHar = setElementData( getElementColShape ( element ), "isHarvested", 1) 
                else 
                    outputChatBox ( "You can't harvest with this vehicle!!", element ) 
                end 
            end 
        else 
            outputChatBox ( "/pickbud to pick the weed!", element ) 
        end 
    else 
        outputChatBox("Error!! Contact an Admin, F2", element ) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onColShapeHit", getRootElement(), weedhit )

Are you setting the element data when it gets harvested? post "harvestWeed" function code.

[harryh]

Are you setting the element data when it gets harvested? post "harvestWeed" function code.

function harvestWeed( thePlayer ) 
    local targetPlayer, targetPlayerName = exports.global:findPlayerByPartialNick(thePlayer, thePlayer) 
    exports.global:giveItem(targetPlayer, 30, 0) 
    exports.global:giveItem(targetPlayer, 30, 0) 
    exports.global:giveItem(targetPlayer, 30, 0) 
    exports.global:giveItem(targetPlayer, 30, 0) 
end

So say when you harvest colshape 1 you can still harvest colshape 2,6 but not 1 as setElementData to the colshape stopping it being harvested, it says expected element for boolean. so basically trying to get the colshape that the player is in and setting that colshape to harvested

Ah, thank you Solid.

[Castillo]

You're welcome.

Now I have a different problem. How can I check if someone is in any of the cols. Here is what I current have. I have tried using a for loop

for _, value in pairs(wcols) do 

  
weed1 = createObject(3409, -1070.0712890625, -1621.3779296875, 75 ) 
wc1 = createColRectangle(-1071.9111328125, -1623.5166015625, 4, 4) 
weed2 = createObject(3409,  -1061.048828125, -1621.3779296875, 75 ) 
wc2 = createColRectangle(-1062.865234375, -1623.3974609375, 4, 4) 
weed3 = createObject(3409, -1061.048828125+9, -1621.3779296875, 75 ) 
wc3 = createColRectangle(-1053.984375, -1623.375, 4, 4) 
weed4 = createObject(3409, -1052.1123046875, -1631.681640625, 75 ) 
wc4 = createColRectangle(-1054.1328125, -1633.4208984375, 4, 4) 
weed5 = createObject(3409, -1052.1123046875-9, -1631.681640625, 75 ) 
wc5 = createColRectangle(-1063.2421875, -1633.6806640625, 4, 4) 
weed6 = createObject(3409, -1070.0712890625, -1631.681640625, 75 ) 
wc6 = createColRectangle(-1072.0537109375, -1633.6484375, 4, 4) 
wcols = { wc1, wc2, wc3, wc4, wc5, wc6 } 
  
function pickBud( thePlayer ) 
    if isElementWithinColShape(thePlayer, wcols) then 
        if ( getHarvested == 0) then 
            exports.global:sendLocalMeAction(element, "picks some bud.") 
            local targetPlayer, targetPlayerName = exports.global:findPlayerByPartialNick(thePlayer, thePlayer) 
            exports.global:giveItem(targetPlayer, 30, 0) 
            exports.global:giveItem(targetPlayer, 30, 0) 
        end 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("pickbud", pickBud) 

Also I am unable to reset the weed.

function forceWeed () 
    setElementData ( wc1, "isHarvested", 0 ) 
    setElementData ( wc2, "isHarvested", 0 ) 
    setElementData ( wc3, "isHarvested", 0 ) 
    setElementData ( wc4, "isHarvested", 0 ) 
    setElementData ( wc5, "isHarvested", 0 ) 
    setElementData ( wc6, "isHarvested", 0 ) 
    outputChatBox("Weed Grown") 
end 
addCommandHandler("forceweed", forceWeed)
