Loan/Give Money System - HELP URGENT!?!

FlyingSpoon · February 17, 2015

Well, before I do anything else,

I want the person to enter an amount between, $50,000 - $500,000

So if they enter an amount over it it will output a message saying, please enter an amount between them to numbers and the same if they enter an amount less then it.

function loanSys() 
        loanMenu = guiCreateWindow(349, 240, 354, 310, "Loan-System v0.1", false) 
        guiWindowSetSizable(loanMenu, false) 
  
        loanLabel = guiCreateLabel(9, 26, 81, 21, "Loan Amount: ", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanLabel, "default-small") 
        loanEd = guiCreateEdit(71, 21, 164, 27, "Enter 50000-500000", false, loanMenu) 
        loanInfo = guiCreateLabel(9, 52, 325, 37, "Enter the loan amount you wish to receive,\nMinimum: $50,000\nMaximum: $500,000\n", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanInfo, "default-small") 
        loanClose = guiCreateButton(304, 279, 41, 22, "Close", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanClose, "default-small")     
        bSumbit = guiCreateButton(240, 22, 99, 32, "Submit", false, loanMenu)     
        showCursor(true) 
end 
addCommandHandler("loanv1", loanSys)     
  
function closeIt() 
if loanClose then 
guiSetVisible(loanSys, false) 
showCursor(false) 
   end 
end

So, basically when they enter the amount in the guiEdit and hit the Submit button if it is between 50-50000 then they get that amount and a message gets output's like the example below,

e.g. 15000, so they get $15,000 and this message gets outputted,

outputChatBox("You have received $15,000!")

Anyone help me please!

You need some kind of this if I got right what you asked:

local amt = tonumber(guiGetText(loanEd)) 
if amt then 
    if amt>=50000 and amt<=500000 then 
     --You actions 
    else 
     outputChatBox("Enter amount between 50000 and 500000.") 
    end 
else 
outputChatBox("Enter something.") 
end

Your script has a slight bug,

When I start/restart it, it output's - Enter something.

local amt = tonumber(guiGetText(loanEd)) 
if amt and bSumbit then 
    if amt>=50000 and amt<=500000 then 
     givePlayerMoney ( source, amt ) 
    else 
     outputChatBox("Enter amount between 50000 and 500000.") 
    end 
else 
outputChatBox("Enter something.") 
end

I tried doing this but no luck

AMARANT · February 17, 2015

Man, it's just a piece of code. I showed you an example how to check the data you enter into edit boxes. The rest you must do on your own.

FlyingSpoon · February 17, 2015

Well, I need help haha, by help I meant someone fixing my code so I can learn from it for future references.. Sorry if you mis-understood me.

AMARANT · February 17, 2015

You just needed to attach GUI click event to check your button pressed and info from the edit box. But OK here is the code:

function pressMyButton() 
if source==bSubmit then 
    local amt = tonumber(guiGetText(loanEd)) 
    if amt then 
        if amt>=50000 and amt<=500000 then 
         --You actions 
        else 
         outputChatBox("Enter amount between 50000 and 500000.") 
        end 
    else 
    outputChatBox("Enter something.") 
    end 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",root,pressMyButton)

FlyingSpoon · February 17, 2015

  
        loanMenu = guiCreateWindow(349, 240, 354, 310, "Loan-System v0.1", false) 
        guiWindowSetSizable(loanMenu, false) 
  
        loanLabel = guiCreateLabel(9, 26, 81, 21, "Loan Amount: ", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanLabel, "default-small") 
        loanEd = guiCreateEdit(71, 21, 164, 27, "Enter 50000-500000", false, loanMenu) 
        loanInfo = guiCreateLabel(9, 52, 325, 37, "Enter the loan amount you wish to receive,\nMinimum: $50,000\nMaximum: $500,000\n", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanInfo, "default-small") 
        loanClose = guiCreateButton(304, 279, 41, 22, "Close", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanClose, "default-small")     
        bSumbit = guiCreateButton(240, 22, 99, 32, "Submit", false, loanMenu)    
guiSetVisible(loanMenu,false) 
  
function openIt() 
guiSetVisible(loanMenu,true) 
showCursor(true) 
end 
addCommandHandler("loanv1", openIt) 
  
function closeIt() 
if loanClose then 
guiSetVisible(loanSys, false) 
showCursor(false) 
   end 
end 
  
function pressMyButton() 
if source==bSubmit then 
    local amt = tonumber(guiGetText(loanEd)) 
    if amt then 
        if amt>=50000 and amt<=500000 then 
        givePlayerMoney ( source, amt ) 
        else 
         outputChatBox("Enter amount between 50000 and 500000.") 
        end 
    else 
    outputChatBox("Enter something.") 
    end 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",root,pressMyButton)

I did this but it didn't work still,

I also attempt to press 'Close'

and it still doesn't work!

Help please

You called your button variable bSumbit, not bSubmit.

AMARANT · February 17, 2015

You called your button variable bSumbit, not bSubmit.

Exactly. Just tested. It's very hard to detect it without checking in-game btw.

FlyingSpoon · February 18, 2015

It works great,

Now it the 'givePlayerMoney' part which is not being detected,

When I hit submit nothing happens,

But the rest happens if I type it below, or above that number a text is outputted

This happens when I hit submit with a value between them 2 numbers.

WARNING: loanv1\client.lua:33: Bad argument @ 'givePlayerMoney' [Expected number at argument 1, got gui-button]

  
        loanMenu = guiCreateWindow(349, 240, 354, 310, "Loan-System v0.1", false) 
        guiWindowSetSizable(loanMenu, false) 
  
        loanLabel = guiCreateLabel(9, 26, 81, 21, "Loan Amount: ", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanLabel, "default-small") 
        loanEd = guiCreateEdit(71, 21, 164, 27, "Enter 50000-500000", false, loanMenu)

        guiSetFont(loanInfo, "default-small") 
        loanClose = guiCreateButton(304, 279, 41, 22, "Close", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanClose, "default-small")     
        bSubmit = guiCreateButton(240, 22, 99, 32, "Submit", false, loanMenu)    
guiSetVisible(loanMenu,false) 
  
function openIt() 
guiSetVisible(loanMenu,true)

end 
addCommandHandler("loanv1", openIt)

end 
  
function pressMyButton() 
if source==bSubmit then 
    local amt = tonumber(guiGetText(loanEd)) 
    if amt then 
        if amt>=50000 and amt<=500000 then 
        givePlayerMoney ( source, amt ) 
        else 
         outputChatBox("Enter amount between 50000 and 500000.") 
        end 
    else 
    outputChatBox("Enter something.") 
    end 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",root,pressMyButton)

AMARANT · February 18, 2015

Because you set the first argument to 'source' which is your GUI button pressed. You need to delete your first argument at all because client-side givePlayerMoney needs only the integer parameter. But! I strongly recommend you to use this function ONLY server-side! And please check MTA wiki to see function arguments.

FlyingSpoon · February 18, 2015

Well I got somewhere

Ty for your help guys +1 !!

So now the new problem is,

I want to move the givePlayerMoney server-side any ideas how I can do it? Please someone help.

loanMenu = guiCreateWindow(349, 240, 354, 310, "Loan-System v0.1", false) 
        guiWindowSetSizable(loanMenu, false) 
  
        loanLabel = guiCreateLabel(9, 26, 81, 21, "Loan Amount: ", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanLabel, "default-small") 
        loanEd = guiCreateEdit(71, 21, 164, 27, "Enter 50000-500000", false, loanMenu) 
        loanInfo = guiCreateLabel(9, 52, 325, 37, "Enter the loan amount you wish to receive,\nMinimum: $50,000\nMaximum: $500,000\n", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanInfo, "default-small") 
        loanClose = guiCreateButton(304, 279, 41, 22, "Close", false, loanMenu) 
        guiSetFont(loanClose, "default-small")     
        bSubmit = guiCreateButton(240, 22, 99, 32, "Submit", false, loanMenu)   
guiSetVisible(loanMenu,false) 
  
function openIt() 
guiSetVisible(loanMenu,true) 
showCursor(true) 
end 
addCommandHandler("loanv1", openIt) 
  
function closeIt() 
if loanClose then 
guiSetVisible(loanSys, false) 
showCursor(false) 
   end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", resourceRoot, closeIt) 
  
function pressMyButton() 
if source==bSubmit then 
    local amt = tonumber(guiGetText(loanEd)) 
    if amt then 
        if amt>=50000 and amt<=500000 then 
        givePlayerMoney ( amt ) 
        else 
         outputChatBox("Enter amount between 50000 and 500000.") 
        end 
    else 
    outputChatBox("Enter something.") 
    end 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",root,pressMyButton)

FlyingSpoon · February 18, 2015

Well I tried that, but I was worried about the guiGetText, how will I do,

givePlayerMoney( source, amt ) ?

amt == Client Side

AMARANT · February 18, 2015

You can pass these variables to the server with that function I provided.

FlyingSpoon · February 18, 2015

Can you show me how it's done :~( I am really confused.
