Pickup?

[Bean666]

Hello , is there anyway to lock a pickup for a team?

thanks.

[Mr.Aleks]

Could you explain better what you wanna do?

If you want to limit the use of the pickup only for the people of the team, you can create a condition with this useful function:

example:

i'll make an hp pickup locked for a team , not all people can get it , only people in the teamname "Alpha Team" will have access to that hp pickup.

i tried making one but they're all a fail.

pick = createPickup (x, y, z, theType, 0, amount, model ) 
function pickup() 
 for _, p in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
          if getPlayerTeam(p) == getTeamFromName("Alpha Team") then 
           setElementHealth(p, 100) 
    else 
        cancelEvent() 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPickupHit", getRootElement(), pickup)

pick = createPickup (x, y, z, theType, 0, amount, model ) 
function pickup() 
 for _, p in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
          if getPlayerTeam(p) == getTeamFromName("Alpha Team") then 
           setElementHealth(p, 100) 
    else 
        cancelEvent() 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPickupHit", getRootElement(), pickup) 

That would set the health for all the players in that team every time someone from Alpha Team hits it. Your function would also be triggered when any pickup is hit - not only when pick is hit.

You could isolate it a bit further with more checks, which would give you more control - like this;

local examplePickup = createPickup(...) 
  
function detectPickupHit_Handler(thePlayer) 
    if(source == examplePickup and getPlayerTeam(thePlayer) == getTeamFromName("Example Team")) then 
        -- Do your stuff here 
    else 
        cancelEvent() 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPickupHit", root, detectPickupHit_Handler)
