Hello, is possible 3x getElementData in 1x getElementData? i mean this:

local r = getElementData(source, "r") 
local g = getElementData(source, "g") 
local b = getElementData(source, "b") 
local all = getElementData(source, "all", r, g, b)  

When i go this i have this Error: Bad argument @ 'getElementData' [Expected bool at argument 3, got number '0'].

Yes, you just have to save the table in there like so;

setElementData ( source, "all", { r, g, b } ); 

later on you can use;

local all = getElementData ( source, "all" ); 
local r, g, b = unpack ( all );

When i want use getElementData i have this warning:

Bad argument @ 'getElementData' [Expected bool at argument 3, got number '0']

local all = getElementData(source, "all") 
local r, g, b = unpack(all) 
local wtf = r, g, b 
local ttt = getElementData(source, "all", wtf)

ok i have now this:

setElementData(player, "all", ""..r..", "..g..", "..b.."") -- Work 

and this too:

local all = getElementData(source, "all") -- Work 

and here too:

local all = getElementData(player, "all")  
local r, g, b = unpack(tostring(all)) 
setVehicleHeadLightColor(source, r, g, b)

Oh that's right, unpack is used for a string, not a table. My bad ^^

So how i can fix?

It's for tables not string

[1LoL1]

Please anyone tell me if this is possible

local all = getElementData(source, "all") 
local r, g, b = unpack(all) 
local wtf = r, g, b 
local ttt = getElementData(source, "all", wtf) 

That error you got: Bad argument @ 'getElementData' [Expected bool at argument 3, got number '0']

That was because of your last line 'getElementData', getElementData only needs the element and the data. (source and "all")

Where you do have to use 3 parameters are with SET (setElementData(source, "all", colors)

For example;

addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", markerName, function() 
     local r, g, b = getVehicleColor(vehicle, true) 
     setElementData(vehicle, "color", {r, g, b}) 
end) 
  
-- and later on 
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", marker2Name, function() 
     local x, y, z = unpack(getElementData(vehicle, "color") 
     setVehicleColor(vehicle, x, y, z) 
end) 

If i'm right at least, btw it's just a random example.

Use

toJSON  
fromJSON 

[ALw7sH]

Use

toJSON  
fromJSON 

He don't need to

set/get-Elementdata does store tables unlike set/get-accountData

ViRuZGamiing example is what he should do, btw there's a missing ")" on line 8

[KariiiM]

He don't need to

Nice to know that

[1LoL1]

local all = getElementData(source, "all") 
local r, g, b = unpack(all) 
local wtf = r, g, b 
local ttt = getElementData(source, "all", wtf)

Not work

Bad argument #1 to 'unpack' (table expected, got string)

i think i need this

local r, g, b = {r, g, b} 

[ViRuZGamiing]

did you Add the missing ')' on line 8? that was my bad

[1LoL1]

did you Add the missing ')' on line 8? that was my bad

Yes it is added.

[ALw7sH]

did you Add the missing ')' on line 8? that was my bad

Yes it is added.

Where's your full code? we cant help you without your code

Don't needed full code.. i want only example how i can 3x getElementData in 1x getElementData.

[ALw7sH]

They did gave you not one example but two

and you're still giving us some weird errors?

Errors is in this examples..

[ViRuZGamiing]

Show us your code that's the way we can help. I think the problem will be somewhere around your r,g,b declaration/setElementData.

Don't needed full code can be this:

  
setElementData(sorce, "all", r,g,b) 
  
addEventHandler("onVehicleEnter", getRootElement(), 
function (player) 
    local r, g, b = getElementData(player, "all") 
    local r, g, b = unpack(r, g, b) 
    setVehicleHeadLightColor(source, r, g, b) 
    end 
end) 
  

[ViRuZGamiing]

setElementData(sorce, "all", r,g,b) -- this has to be source instead of sorce probably 
  
addEventHandler("onVehicleEnter", getRootElement(), 
function (player) 
    local colors = getElementData(player, "all") -- by calling it r, g, b you use 3 variables but the table only needs 1 
    local r, g, b = unpack(colors) -- here you go from 1 table to 3 variables 
    setVehicleHeadLightColor(source, r, g, b) 
end) 

If this doesn't work, let me see the setElementData function because I don't know what the source is right now.

[ALw7sH]

Who's "source" or "sorce"

and setElementData(sorce, "all", r,g,b)

should be setElementData(sorce, "all", {r,g,b})

[ViRuZGamiing]

Who's "source" or "sorce"

and setElementData(sorce, "all", r,g,b)

should be setElementData(sorce, "all", {r,g,b})

Yeah I looked over the table in setElementData

setElementData(source, "all", {r,g,b}) -- this has to be source instead of sorce probably 
  
addEventHandler("onVehicleEnter", getRootElement(), 
function (player) 
    local colors = getElementData(player, "all") -- by calling it r, g, b you use 3 variables but the table only needs 1 
    local r, g, b = unpack(colors) -- here you go from 1 table to 3 variables 
    setVehicleHeadLightColor(source, r, g, b) 
end)
