[HELP] givePlayerMoney onMarkerHit with timer

[SkullBreaker]

Hi guys! I would like to add a timer on this script. (for example: if you stand in the marker, you get 50$ every 10 seconds.)

This is my script:

local moneymarker = createMarker (2505.2, -1672.5, 12, "cylinder", 2, 60, 240, 32, 200) 
  
function giveMoney(player) 
    if getElementType(player) == "player" then 
        givePlayerMoney(player, 10) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", moneymarker, giveMoney) 
  

I'll be glad if you could help me out

FIXED, THANKYOU!

This is my script now:

local moneymarker = createMarker(2505.2, -1672.5, 12, "cylinder", 5, 60, 240, 32, 200) 
  
function giveMoney(player) 
    if getElementType(player) == "player" then 
        theTime = setTimer (function() 
            givePlayerMoney(player, 50) 
        end, 10000, 0) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", moneymarker, giveMoney) 
  
function killTime() 
    if isTimer(theTime) then 
        killTimer(theTime) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerLeave", moneymarker, killTime)

doesn't work and what happened to the timer?

local moneymarker = createMarker (2505.2, -1672.5, 12, "cylinder", 2, 60, 240, 32, 200)

        givePlayerMoney(player, 10) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", moneymarker, giveMoney) 

Works! thanks! but how to make it on a timer?

Wath do you mean by timer ? it's give money on player hit marker.

[SkullBreaker]

I mean that if you stand in a random marker, colshape or something like that, you get for example $50 every 10 seconds.

[..:D&G:..]

local moneymarker = createMarker (2505.2, -1672.5, 12, "cylinder", 2, 60, 240, 32, 200) 
  
function giveMoney(player) 
    if getElementType(player) == "player" then 
setTimer ( function() 
        givePlayerMoney(player, 50) 
        outputChatBox("Cash money! Cash money!", player, 0, 255, 0) 
    end, 10000, 1 )  --10000 = miliseconds = 10 seconds 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", moneymarker, giveMoney)

This will give 50 $ every 10 seconds if player is in marker.

local moneymarker = createMarker (2505.2, -1672.5, 12, "cylinder", 2, 60, 240, 32, 200) 
  
function giveMoney(player) 
    if getElementType(player) == "player" then 
        local theTime = setTimer ( function() 
            givePlayerMoney(player, 50) 
        end, 10000, 0 ) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", moneymarker, giveMoney) 
  
function killTime() 
    if isTimer(theTime) then 
        killTimer(theTime) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerLeave", moneymarker, killTime)

You forgot the '=' between "theTimer" and "setTimer"

You might also want to take the 'local' from "theTimer' off, so it can be triggered outside the 'if' it is in.

Hmm, i didn't know that thanks

[TAPL]

player is not defined inside the timer, also you should use table.

[iMr.TZ[W]ER]

why he should use a table ?

MTA isn't single player, you can't just use one variable for more than one player.

Actually there's no need for using the event onMarkerHit and onMarkerLeave. Use one timer and loop all players in the marker and give them money.

Thanks for your replies! I am going to try some out

[SkullBreaker]

It worked perfectly! This is what I got now:

local moneymarker = createMarker(2505.2, -1672.5, 12, "cylinder", 5, 60, 240, 32, 200) 
  
function giveMoney(player) 
    if getElementType(player) == "player" then 
        theTime = setTimer (function() 
            givePlayerMoney(player, 50) 
        end, 10000, 0) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", moneymarker, giveMoney) 
  
function killTime() 
    if isTimer(theTime) then 
        killTimer(theTime) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerLeave", moneymarker, killTime) 
  

Thanks for your help

What exactly is a "colshape" and what can I do with it?

[..:D&G:..]

Colshape is an invisible area, a square or any other shape. You can use that instead of a marker, more realistic.,
