Problem With Markers.

[_DrXenon]

Hey community!

As far as i know, a Marker is an element.

And recently i have been trying to store some data in a marker with (setElementData) , and data is being saved.

Anyway the problem is that players see different data when they hit the marker, while they should all see the same data .-.!

And the data is a math random.

Example:

  
marker = createMarker(0,0,3,"cylinder",1.5,255,0,0) 
  
local cars = { 
{445}, 
{604}, 
{507}, 
{585}, 
{587}, 
{466}, 
{492}, 
{546}, 
{551}, 
{516}, 
} 
  
function setData() 
  if not getElementData(marker,"working") then 
    setElementData(marker,"working",true) 
    local firstCol = math.random(#cars) 
    local veh = getVehicleNameFromModel(cars[firstCol][1]) 
    setElementData(marker,"firstCar",veh) 
         setTimer(function() 
              setElementData(marker,"working",false) 
                      end,600000,1) 
  end 
end 
setTimer(setData,1000,0) 
  
  

Thats how i set the data of the Marker.

Anyway, When player hits the marker:

  
addEventHandler("onClientMarkerHit",marker,function(hit) 
        dxDrawText(getElementData(marker,"firstCar"), 353, 241, 668, 304, tocolor(0, 230, 32, 254), 1.00, "bankgothic", "center", "center", false, false, false, false, false) 
end 
) 
  

So when players hit the marker, they see different texts than others. Like first player sees : Cheetah, another one sees : Infernus...

While they all should see the same thing, As they see the Marker Data.

So whats wrong with marker or script ?

Even if i reconnected, when i hit the marker, i may see different text..

It might be because you switch the data every 1 second. (setTimer(setData,1000,0))

Try setTimer(setData,1000,1) .

EDIT:

Nevermind.

Is that clientside? If so it would be different for every player.

Timer triggered when marker data is false..

And when its triggered i set the data as true.. then after 10 mins i set marker data to false. That means its not triggered every second

And yeah its client. But why it would be different for different players?

Yeah, I didn't see that if the first time.

If its clientside every client is doing this function on his own, and since it usee the random function, every player might get a different result.

So, just make the marker serverside and attach some ID or something, so on clientside you can check if the marker that was hit is the one here.
