Get Players On Team

[PoliceSA]

There is a way to get the name of all players on my team called for example : MTA, and write they're name with dxdrawtext ?

[manawydan]

yes

[PoliceSA]

How? can you explain me please?

[xeon17]

getPlayerTeam 
getTeamName 
dxDrawText 

[manawydan]

getPlayersInTeam

Yes, first of all you need to get all player elements and then check their team. After that, add them to a table. For example;

-- Define the table. 
local mtaTeamPlayers = {}; 
  
-- First of all, fetch all current player elements 
local allPlayers = getElementsByType("player"); 
-- Then loop through all players and check their team name 
for k, v in ipairs(allPlayers) do 
    if(getTeamName(getPlayerTeam(v)) == "MTA") then 
        -- If their team name matches the one you want, get their player name and store it in a local variable 
        local playerName = getPlayerName(v); 
        -- Insert their name into our previously defined table 
        table.insert(mtaTeamPlayers, #mtaTeamPlayers, playerName); 
    end 
end 

Of course that's just an example. You'll have to make code which updates the table whenever a player join and quits. You'll also have to loop through the table to draw their names using dxDrawText.

Edit:

Or use the function manawydan suggested

Aahah thx but what should I put in the client? Cuz i'm not good to script

i should use on server like that?

for k, v in ipairs(allPlayers) do 
    if(getTeamName(getPlayerTeam(v)) == "team[1]") then 
        local playerName = getPlayerName(v) 
        table.insert(mtaTeamPlayers, #mtaTeamPlayers, playerName); 
        triggerClientEvent (source, "TriggerToClient", g_Root, mtaTeamPlayers) 
              end 
           end 

[manawydan]

one example,

addEventHandler("onClientRender",root, 
function() 
local team = getPlayerTeam(localPlayer) 
if not(team)then return end 
local players = getPlayersInTeam(team) 
for k,v in ipairs(players)do 
-- you dxdraw here 
end 
end) 
  

[PoliceSA]

  
.... 
local team = getPlayerTeam(localPlayer) 
if not(team)then return end 
local players = getPlayersInTeam(team) 
for k,v in ipairs(players)do 
dxDrawText (whatishouldputhere?, x + 60, 420, x, y, tocolor( 255, 255, 255 ), 1, "default-bold" ) 
end 

[xeon17]

  
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root, 
function () 
local team = getPlayerTeam(localPlayer) 
if not(team)then return end 
local players = getPlayersInTeam(team) 
for _,v in ipairs(players)do 
dxDrawText (getPlayerName(v), x + 60, 420, x, y, tocolor( 255, 255, 255 ), 1, "default-bold" ) 
end

Okay but this is for just 1 player and others?

[xeon17]

I think it's already draw the name's of all players in team, idk

[botder]

You don't move the names. Every name will be rendered on the same spot. You should use the index value (that one you called _)

[PoliceSA]

Like That?

  
.... 
for id,v in ipairs(players)do 
         dxDrawText(getPlayerName(v), x + 60,420*id, x, screenHeight, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1, "default-bold", "left", "top", false, false, true, true, false) 

[botder]

Yeah, almost.

With your code your first name will be rendered at height 420, the next one at 840 and so on. (id starts at 1)

Solution:

dxDrawText(..., x + 60, 420 + 30 * (id - 1), ...)
