onClientPlayerStealthKill

[Xabache]

I can get either or here but not both? This can cancel the event, or it can kill the killer, depending on the order of killPed and cancelEvent. But I cant get it to both cancel the death of the Ped and kill the killer. Can I?

addEventHandler ( "onClientPlayerStealthKill", root, 
    function ( target ) 
        killPed ( sourcePlayer, sourcePlayer ) 
        cancelEvent ( ) 
    end 
)

You can't use 'killPed' because it's a server side function try to use triggerServerEvent()

addEventHandler("onClientPlayerStealthKill", getLocalPlayer(),  
function(target) 
if (target and getElementType(target) == "player" and target ~= source) then 
triggerServerEvent("KillAttacker",source) 
cancelEvent() 
end 
)

Okay that works to send the server a KillAttacker event not added serverside...

function killAttacker (killer) 
    killPed(killer) 
    outputChatBox ("KARMA:" .. killer ... " is dead",source,0,233,0,true) 
end 

Yup no idea what I'm doing...

addEvent("KillAttacker",true) 
function killAttacker (killer) 
    killPed(killer) 
    outputChatBox ("KARMA:" .. killer ... " is dead",source,0,233,0,true) 
end 
addEventHandler("KillAttacker",resourceRoot,killAttacker)

Client:

addEventHandler ( "onClientPlayerStealthKill", root, 
    function ( target ) 
        triggerServerEvent("KillAttacker",source) 
        cancelEvent() 
    end 
) 

Server:

addEvent("KillAttacker",true) 
function killAttacker (killer) 
    killPed(killer) 
    outputChatBox ("KARMA:" .. killer .. " is dead",source,0,233,0,true) 
end 
addEventHandler("KillAttacker",resourceRoot,killAttacker) 

No error message. But only canceling the event. The killer is not killed. The KARMA message is not displayed. What's wrong?

[Anubhav]

Ye .

Change triggerServerEvent line to:

triggerServerEvent("KillAttacker", source, source )

[Tomas]

Client:

  
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerStealthKill", getLocalPlayer(), 
function(target) 
if (target and getElementType(target) == "player" and target ~= source) then 
triggerServerEvent("KillAttacker",resourceRoot,source) 
cancelEvent() 
end 
) 
  

Server:

  
addEvent("KillAttacker",true) 
function killAttacker (killer) 
    killPed(killer) 
    outputChatBox ("KARMA:" .. killer .. " is dead",source,0,233,0,true) 
end 
addEventHandler("KillAttacker",resourceRoot,killAttacker)

Thank you Tomas and Anubhav, but neither suggestion functions.

Anubhav's still cancels the event without killing the killer.

and Tomas' the victim dies in the event without it being canceled and the killer is not harmed.

I want the killer to be struck down as a result of their attempted Stealth Kill.

Use my code and

in server

2nd argument of addEventHandler should be root.

[SkatCh]

Try this :

Client

  
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerStealthKill", getLocalPlayer(), 
function(target) 
if (target and getElementType(target) == "player" and target ~= source) then 
triggerServerEvent("KillAttacker",source,source) 
cancelEvent() 
end 
) 

Server

  
function killAttacker (killer) 
    killPed(killer) 
    outputChatBox ("KARMA:" .. killer .. " is dead",source,0,233,0,true) 
end 
addEvent("KillAttacker",true) 
addEventHandler("KillAttacker",root,killAttacker) 

[Anubhav]

Try this :

Client

  
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerStealthKill", getLocalPlayer(), 
function(target) 
if (target and getElementType(target) == "player" and target ~= source) then 
triggerServerEvent("KillAttacker",source,source) 
cancelEvent() 
end 
) 

Server

  
function killAttacker (killer) 
    killPed(killer) 
    outputChatBox ("KARMA:" .. killer .. " is dead",source,0,233,0,true) 
end 
addEvent("KillAttacker",true) 
addEventHandler("KillAttacker",root,killAttacker) 

Fully same what I told.

Why should be root?

[IIYAMA]

When using root in an addEventHandler, it can accept every source element. When you use resourceRoot, it will only accept resourceRoot.

This will become the source element from the addEventHandler:

triggerServerEvent("KillAttacker",[color=#FF0000]source[/color],source)
