Hello good friends came to ask your help as I am with some mistakes and really tried everything within my knowledge moon more could not solve however identified some errors.

Well for starters I'm working on a trucker's job and he has a marker hit the player passes choose where you want to lead the charge. (if necessary see the Client-side report.)

mistakes that I have received in my cmd (Lines: 35,36,37,38 :Bad argument @ 'destroyElement' [Expected element at argument 1])

error I've noticed in test: this missing element specified removeEventHandler(.....).

Change

[hitElement] 

To

hitElement 

and add a comma before.

[raynner]

Change

[hitElement] 

give me an example ?

destroyElement ( blipEntrega, hitElement ) 

???

[Captain Cody]

Accually now that I look at it, remove hitElement completely.

What about RemoveEventHandler have any idea how can I specify the player you want to remove the event ?

Create tables

here's a guide I got while creating my trucking script.

For managing multiply data you need to use tables.

For example you start a job for a player.

    truckerJobData = {} -- declare on top of your script. 

When you start this job, you do this:

    truckerJobData[player] = {} 

You use the player as key of the table. Which is between the brackets > [ ].

The next step is to redeclare the table in a variable of choice: (this is just a method I like to use)

    local playerTruckerJobData = truckerJobData[player] 

After redeclaring the variable that gives access to the empty table, you are going to collect and create the data of the job. This can be the: truck, trailer, blip and marker.

  
  
    local finisha = createMarker (tableLocationsX[randomLoc], tableLocationsY[randomLoc], tableLocationsZ[randomLoc], "cylinder", 3, 0, 200, 55, 255, hitElementa) 
    local blip = createBlip (tableLocationsX[randomLoc], tableLocationsY[randomLoc], tableLocationsZ[randomLoc], 0, 2, 255, 0, 0, 255, 0, 10000, hitElementa) 
    local truckM = createVehicle(514, -715, 963, 12) 
    local trailer = createVehicle ( 435, 0, 0, 4 ) 

And the last step is to insert the required data of the job, inside your empty table.

    playerTruckerJobData["blip"] = blip 
    playerTruckerJobData["marker"] = finisha 
    playerTruckerJobData["truck"] =  truckM 
    playerTruckerJobData["trailer"] = trailer 

There are a few ways to do it, but try first this one, because it is easy to read.

Ones you did that, you can access your: trailers, trucks, blips and markers very easy.

The only thing you need to do is knowing the player/(player-userdata).

To access your trailer and destroy it, example:

   local playerTruckerJobData = truckerJobData[player] 
      
    if playerTruckerJobData then -- if the player have any job data then ... 
      
    local trailer = playerTruckerJobData["trailer"] -- then get the trailer element. 
      
    if isElement(trailer) then -- check if the trailer still does exist in the MTA world. 
    destroyElement(trailer) -- destroy the trailer. 
    end 
      
    end 

Replace what you need. But there's a basic guide from IIYAMA

Well somehow I made the incorrect use of tables? or not

and exchange [hitElement] by, hitElement does not work
