Help?

[DeadlyHawk]

Hello there,

I'm a beginner in LUA, so I'm trying to learn as much as I can. I'm struggling now with something:

I created a gridlist with 3 columns. I want to retrieve all the weapons that the client has, listing their names, IDs, and total ammo into the gridlist created previously.

It is necessary for tables and loops to be set, as I stated I'm beginner so I'm trying to learn these stuff.

To start with:

wepGridlist = guiCreateGridList(20, 27, 335, 177, false, window)        guiGridListAddColumn(wepGridlist, "ID", 0.2)        guiGridListAddColumn(wepGridlist, "Name", 0.4)        guiGridListAddColumn(wepGridlist, "Ammo", 0.3)

If you can, please explain the code you're going to post, step by step.

First of all, I'm not sure if it works.

It goes like this.

  
for i=1, guiGridListGetRowCount(wepGridlist) do 
  
end 
[lua] 
This creates a loop till the row count of your gridlist 
For example, if it is 5, it will loop 5 times. 
  
[lua] 
for i=1, guiGridListGetRowCount(wepGridlist) do 
    local ID = guiGridListGetItemText( wepGridlist, i, 1 ) 
    local Name = guiGridListGetItemText( wepGridlist, i, 2 ) 
    local Ammo = guiGridListGetItemText( wepGridlist, i, 3 ) 
end 
  

Now here, you used guiGridListGetItemText, with your gridlist name and where is the loop as i will change everytime it loops till your row count.

You get your results!

Thanks for the effort, but this is not the help I'm looking for.

I need a function that retrieves the localPlayer's weapons names, IDs, and ammo. After retrieving these, it then adds the info we retrieved into multiple rows respectively.

For example I got 2 weapons, Deagle and AK-47, it should be as follows:

ID Name Ammo

24 Deagle 123/7

30 AK-47 70/30

I think I got what you want,

You have to use these functions to do what you are looking for

getPedWeaponSlot 
getPedWeapon 
getPedTotalAmmo 
getWeaponNameFromID

Great, it works perfectly. Thank you!
