Tables

[StefanAlmighty]

Is it possible to create a table using a function like table.create? I looked but I couldn't find anything of the sort, or is there any alternatives?

I want a unique table per player who runs the script.

Any help is appreciated.

There's no function for that, you can create it by yourself

myTable = {}

Is it possible to nest table?

eg;

mainTable = { 
subTable1 = { innerTable1 = { } } 
subTable2 = { innerTable2 = { } } 
-- etc.. 
} 

[KariiiM]

Something like that is correct

local mainTable = {} 
mainTable[1] = {} 
mainTable[2] = {} 

[StefanAlmighty]

Hmm okay, do I have to manually add mainTable[1], mainTable[2]. I require like 2000+ plus of these.

What you want to do?

For every house on my server I want a separate table.

So for example, if I wanted to access house with ID 2041 I'd use this houseTable[2041] = { } but I don't want to manually add all of those tables.

I understood you, what about you do that with SQL?

[StefanAlmighty]

It needs to be tables, so is there a way? SQL won't help me here because I don't need to store data.

The system is for a robbery system where players can rob a house, and items are randomly generated into the table.

Post part of your code

I've sorted it now, one more thing though. How do I disable a players animation?

[sanyisasha]

It's "OOP" in MTA Lua.

Example:

  
local functions = { 
create = function(var1,var2) 
... 
end, 
delete = function(var1,var2,var3) 
... 
end} 
local created = functions.create(var1,var2)

That's not OOP. You only nested functions inside a table.

How can I disable an animation?

[Addlibs]

Set animation to an empty set and empty animation, i.e

setPedAnimation(localPlayer, "", "") --Of course, replace localPlayer with the ped element who's animation you want to stop

My example is more usefull.

  
Element = { 
    create = createElement, 
    setPosition = setElementPosition, 
    ... 
}
