setElementData

[-Doc-]

Hi i got a problem how to setElementData if text exist.

addEvent("onChatbubblesMessageIncome", true) 
  
local textsToDraw = {} 
  
local hideown 
local showtime 
local characteraddition 
local maxbubbles 
  
local showthebubbles = true 
  
function income(message,messagetype) 
    if source ~= getLocalPlayer() or not hideown then 
        if messagetype == 2 then 
            if getPlayerTeam(source) == getPlayerTeam(getLocalPlayer()) then 
                addText(source,message,messagetype) 
            end 
        else 
            addText(source,message,messagetype) 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
function addText(source,message,messagetype) 
    local notfirst = false 
    for i,v in ipairs(textsToDraw) do 
        if v[1] == source then 
            v[4] = v[4] + 1 
            notfirst = true 
        end 
    end 
    local infotable = {source,message,messagetype,0} 
    table.insert(textsToDraw,infotable) 
    if not notfirst then 
        setTimer(removeText,showtime + (#message * characteraddition),1,infotable) 
    end 
end 
  
function removeText(infotable) 
    for i,v in ipairs(textsToDraw) do 
        if v[1] == infotable[1] and v[2] == infotable[2] then 
            for i2,v2 in ipairs(textsToDraw) do 
                if v2[1] == v[1] and v[4] - v2[4] == 1 then 
                    setTimer(removeText,showtime + (#v2[2] * characteraddition),1,v2) 
                end 
            end 
            table.remove(textsToDraw,i) 
            break 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
function getTextsToRemove() 
    for i,v in ipairs(textsToDraw) do 
        if v[1] == source then 
            removeText(v)

... what?

setElementData? Where? What do you want?

[-Doc-]

If text exists then setElementData(source,"lool",true) if text doesnt exist then setElementData(source,"lool",false)

[Bonus]

If textsToDraw[1] then

Simply ask it in addText and removeText

I've broken the scritpt.

Tried, not working

Video test

Alright so thanks to the video, I understood that you wanted to have a maximum of one bubble at a time.

If you read the script carefully, you will see that the number of bubbles to be drawn at the same time is managed by the maxbubbles variable at the top of the script which is populated by the saveSettings function at the bottom of the script. That same function is triggered from the serverside and probably use the setting system in the meta.xml.

Can you show us the onAskForBubbleSettings event on the serverside and your meta.xml ?

Nooo, you misunderstood i wanna to hide the nametag when chat bubble exists, look at my problem when 2 bubbles and one dissapears, one remaining and the name tag is back. How to fix?

[Citizen]

Alright then why didn't you just say that in the first post ???

We need to see the code responsible of showing and hiding the nametag, we can't hack your computer to see by ourselves, provide everything that can be usefull for us to help you.
