[HELP]Lumberjack

[DzMG-LV]

Hey so i want to make lumberjack job, what functions i need to use?

I want to i can destroy tree only with chainsaw, so getcontrolstate? Offcourse createObject, moveObject

but i want to make about 20-40 tree's so i need make tables, how?

You can just use a for loop, and then insert the created tree into an array/table...

See my tutorial to learn about loops & tables.

So i made table and tree spawner, trees spawn and everything work's fine but now what i need to do to destroy trees only with chainsaw? And i can destroy individualy tree's so if i destroy one tree, them all doesn't destroy

Umm, I think there's already a resource that lets you do this - so you'd be best off looking at that I guess. I don't know whether it's compiled or not.

Personally though, I'd probably attach something like a collision box or cylinder to each tree, and check if a player is near it. If a player is near it, then check if he's wielding a chainsaw. If he is wielding a chainsaw, then you can check whether the player is performing a certain action and/or animation.

If all of the above are true, you can do whatever you want. Decrease the "health" of the tree or simply make it fall over.

I found one resource, but it's destroy only trees that allready is on map, but i want when i can destroy only trees what i make.

That resource:

local length = 3 
  
function onClientPlayerWeaponSwitch( prevSlot, newSlot ) 
    if getPedWeapon( localPlayer, newSlot ) == 9 then 
        addEventHandler( "onClientPreRender", root, onClientChainsawRender ) 
    else 
        removeEventHandler( "onClientPreRender", root, onClientChainsawRender )

end

            local treename = treelist[worldID].name 
            local interior = getElementInterior( localPlayer ) 
  
            if not startwoodtick then 
                local anora = findDaVowel( treename ) 
                startwoodtick = getTickCount() 
  
                triggerServerEvent( "onPlayerChopTree", localPlayer, worldID, worldX, worldY, worldZ, worldRX, worldRY, worldRZ, worldLODID, interior ) 
                outputChatBox( "You chopped down " .. anora .. " " .. treename, 0, 150, 0, false )

        end 
  
        if worldID then

function spawnTrees() 
  for i, tree in ipairs(trees) do

    object = createObject(726, x, y, z, 0, 0, 0 ) 
    setElementData(object, "tree", true)

end

How can i destroy them only with chainsaw? And individualy?

[DzMG-LV]

So i made new version, but how can i make when if player hit tree with chainsaw only, the tree fall?

local tree1 = createColRectangle ( -471.30078125, 246.748046875, 10.449155807495, 0.012 ) 
function onPlayerChopTree2 () 
triggerClientEvent("playTreeSound", source) 
setTimer( 
function() 
moveObject(treeObj2, time, -471.30078125, 246.748046875, 10.449155807495, 100, 0, 0, "OutBounce" ) 
koks2 = createObject ( 1463, -468.6875, 246.5205078125, 10.9, 0, 0, 0 ) 
end, 2000, 1 
)  
setTimer( 
function() 
destroyElement(treeObj2) 
end, 15000, 1 
) 
destroyElement(tree1) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onColShapeHit", tree1, onPlayerChopTree2)

Specifies if the player entered with chainsaw weapon.

What's wrong here? Trees spawn, but it doesn't destroy.
