Vehicle lock

[Xwad]

Hi i need a script that makes possible that when a player get in a vehicle then the other player cant open the door, only if he press g. Can you give the functions for this script? Or is there any rescource like this? Thanks.

setVehicleLocked 
isVehicleLocked 

By cancelling the event: "onVehicleStartEnter" if isVehicleLocked returns true you can make sure that non lockable vehicles like bikes for instance also will remain locked.

Cool thanks!

hi i test it and it dosent work:/

function lockcar ( thePlayer )

playervehicle = getPlayerOccupiedVehicle ( thePlayer ) -- define 'playervehicle' as the vehicle the player is in

if ( playervehicle ) then -- if a player is in a vehicle

if isVehicleLocked ( playervehicle ) then -- and if the vehicle is already locked

setVehicleLocked ( playervehicle, false ) -- unlock it

else -- otherwise (if it isn't locked)

setVehicleLocked ( playervehicle, true ) -- lock it

end

end

end

function bindLockOnSpawn ( theSpawnpoint ) -- when a player spawns

bindKey ( source, "l", "down", "Lock car", lockcar ) -- bind the 'l' key to the 'lockcar' function

end

addEventHandler ( "onPlayerSpawn", getRootElement(), bindLockOnSpawn ) -- add an event handler for onPlayerSpawn

addEventHandler ( "onVehicleStartEnter", source, 
    function ( player, seat ) 
        if ( isElement ( getVehicleOccupant ( source ) ) and seat == 0 ) then 
            cancelEvent ( ) 
        end 
    end 
) 

Server side.

[Xwad]

not working:/ But need i only use that server side?

[WhoAmI]

Yea, only serverside. It should work like that: player want to enter a car, but if there is controller of this vehicle he can enter only on "G".

[Xwad]

So if a player enter a car the after that another players can only enter with g?

[WhoAmI]

Yup.

[Xwad]

    function ( player, seat )

        end 
    end

His code is correct. It was supposed to be 'source', not 'root'.

[Xwad]

Thanks:D

[WhoAmI]

MrTasty, tell me. When shall I use source, when root, and when other elements? It may help me a lot. Thanks.

source is the element that triggered the event (the vehicle that was being entered)

By default, all scripts have a predefined root.

It is almost as if every script had

root = getRootElement() 

on the top.

The root element is the element that is the parent of everything. Read more on Wiki: Element_tree

Executing a function on root will execute it on all (possible) elements. Eg, setVehicleLocked(root, true) will lock ALL vehicles.
