Problem with setElementVisibleTo

[justn]

Hi

I'm working on a little script, and I have a problem with setElementVisibleTo

No errors in debugscript

addEvent("CreateCaptainMarker",true) 
addEventHandler("CreateCaptainMarker",getRootElement(), 
function(x,y,z) 
local playerName = getPlayerName(source) 
local playerFromName = getPlayerFromName(playerName) 
if playerName and playerFromName then 
CaptainMarker[source] = createMarker ( x, y, z, "cylinder", 5, 255, 51, 102, 85) 
CaptainAttachedBlip[source] = createBlipAttachedTo(CaptainMarker[source],9) 
setElementVisibleTo(CaptainMarker[source],playerFromName,true) 
setElementVisibleTo(CaptainMarker[source],root,false) 
setElementVisibleTo(CaptainAttachedBlip[source],playerFromName,true) 
setElementVisibleTo(CaptainAttachedBlip[source],root,false) 
end 
end 
)

playerFromName is a part of root, this means that you first make the element visible to playerFromName and straight after that making the element invisible to all, including playerFromName. Also make sure that you run this script server side only. Try this:

 addEvent("CreateCaptainMarker",true) 
addEventHandler("CreateCaptainMarker",getRootElement(), 
function(x,y,z) 
    local playerName = getPlayerName(source) 
    local playerFromName = getPlayerFromName(playerName) 
    if playerName and playerFromName then 
        CaptainMarker[source] = createMarker ( x, y, z, "cylinder", 5, 255, 51, 102, 85) 
        CaptainAttachedBlip[source] = createBlipAttachedTo(CaptainMarker[source],9) 
        setElementVisibleTo(CaptainMarker[source],root,false) 
        setElementVisibleTo(CaptainMarker[source],playerFromName,true) 
        setElementVisibleTo(CaptainAttachedBlip[source],root,false) 
        setElementVisibleTo(CaptainAttachedBlip[source],playerFromName,true)  
    end 
end)

Also blips will be visible to new players. Because root only included the players that are inside the server at that moment.
