[SOLVED] Marker

[luskanek]

Hello,

for key, corona in pairs (getElementsByType("marker")) do 
    if getMarkerType(corona) == "corona" then 

What I'm trying to do is to detect when a element hits a corona marker, however, the code triggers always, so not when it's a corona only. How do I fix this?

Try this:

  
local corona = getElementsByType("marker") 
for key, v in pairs (corona) do 
    if getMarkerType(corona[i]) == "corona" then

Try this:

  
local corona = getElementsByType("marker") 
for key, v in pairs (corona) do 
    if getMarkerType(corona[i]) == "corona" then -- or this:  if getMarkerType(v[i]) == "corona" then -- not sure with this

Not working.

What is the event used and why you need this loop?

[..:D&G:..]

Maybe this?

for key, corona in pairs (getElementsByType("marker")) do 
    if not getMarkerType(corona) == "corona" then 
        return end 
    else 
        --[[What is going to happen if the element is hitting an actual corona]] 
  
    end 
end

TAPL, the event is onMarkerHit. I need the loop to check whenever the players hits a corona.

The source of this event is the marker that got hit by the element.

function lol(tElement) 
    if (getElementType(tElement) == "player") then 
        if (getMarkerType(source) == "corona") then 
            --Stuff 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", root, lol)

addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", getRootElement(), 
    function(tElement) 
        if getElementType(tElement) == "vehicle" then 
            if getMarkerType(source) == "corona" then 
                local x, y, z = getElementVelocity(tElement) 
                setElementVelocity(tElement, x * 1.06, y * 1.06, z) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 

Doesn't work, no errors.

You put it server side?

[luskanek]

Yes. Tried to change the element to player instead of vehicle and get the player's vehicle, however, nothing works.

[TAPL]

Try increase the number.

addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", getRootElement(), 
    function(tElement) 
        if getElementType(tElement) == "vehicle" then 
            if getMarkerType(source) == "corona" then 
                local x, y, z = getElementVelocity(tElement) 
                setElementVelocity(tElement, x * 2.5, y * 2.5, z) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
)
