the first time will, over the second not

Fail

function delay() 
test = createPickup (653.35773, -1769.18567, 13.57368, 3, 1247, 30000 )

not helped much , you not is developer ?

[Toffbrown]

function nostar() 
setTimer(function() 
star = createPickup (653.35773, -1769.18567, 13.57368, 3, 1247, 60000 ) 
addEventHandler("onPickupHit",star, 
function(player) 
setPlayerWantedLevel(player,getPlayerWantedLevel(player)-1) 
destroyElement(star) 
end) 
end,60000,0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart",resourceRoot,nostar) 

Tested this and this works

it fails with time

if I caught the star more than 3 times it fails

[Toffbrown]

/debugscript 3

what errors does this return?????

it seems to work for me

function nostar() 
setTimer(function() 
star = createPickup (653.35773, -1769.18567, 13.57368, 3, 1247, 60000 ) 
addEventHandler("onPickupHit",star, 
function(player) 
if not getPlayerWantedLevel(player) == 0 then 
setPlayerWantedLevel(player,getPlayerWantedLevel(player)-1) 
destroyElement(star) 
end 
end) 
end,60000,0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart",resourceRoot,nostar) 

Edit:// Use this code below to clear up the debug errors

function nostar() 
setTimer(function() 
star = createPickup (653.35773, -1769.18567, 13.57368, 3, 1247, 60000 ) 
addEventHandler("onPickupHit",star, 
function(player) 
if isElement( star ) and getElementType(star) == "pickup" and getElementModel(star) == 1247 then 
if not getPlayerWantedLevel(player) == 0 then 
setPlayerWantedLevel(player,getPlayerWantedLevel(player)-1) 
destroyElement(star) 
end 
end 
end) 
end,60000,0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart",resourceRoot,nostar)

can you please not post blank spaces? is the script working or not?

[Mr_Moose]

All the given examples works but not if they are used wrongly, see the wiki documentation for the event, onPickupHit:

This event is triggered when a player hits a pickup.

It will work for players but not if you're inside a vehicle. I would suggest creating this as an object and add a colshape around it, colshapes trigger on any type of element. The handling with respawns and stuff like that needs to be done manually but that won't be any problem, I've already seen a few samples in here which applies this kind of handling on the pickup which is just waste of server performance.

[#RooTs]

knows how to solve it? my friend

[Mr_Moose]

Sure, it's easy. This solution is based on the sample by Twerky with a few modifications. It's not tested thought but it should work. Good luck.

Yeah I missed that ')' om line 27 I see. Those errors can't be taken literally obviously.

Pickup is not destroyed when Esto inside the vehicle

As far as I know, pickups don't react with vehicles on MTA.

[#RooTs]

[Mr_Moose]

That's true, pickups doesn't react on vehicles, that's why I suggested an object with colshape, try the latest code sequence and remember to go away a bit first and then hit the object because the colshape in my example is pretty big.

[#RooTs]

new version MTA (1.4) is not possible? you can test ?

[Mr_Moose]

Maybe, were currently moving all AC servers to new hardware but I might be able to test it in a few hours. Still don't think it's possible for pick ups to trigger when they getting hit by a vehicle. It doesn't work in single players and will probably not work in MTA either.

It is possible, create a colshape around the pickup, make it trigger whenever an elements hits it and get the vehiclecontroller to remove the wanted level from.

[#RooTs]

More I can not do this, can you help me and show an example?
