outputChatBox depending setElementData?

[goodiewarrior]

Hello, in my server there's a key (F2) which sends an outputChatBox to rootElement with your Stats.

I want to add this: when you join the server, you've to choose between two images (SECTION1 and SECTION2).

I want to do that ONLY SECTION1 players (let's use getElementData) receive this outputChatBox, but SECTION2 don't.

How could I do this?

Post the code.

Post the code.

Not needed, I have just a GUI to choose Section1 and 2.

I want to do that if the player is Section1, he gets the outputChatBox.

Maybe a loop?

But I dunno how to do it.

Anyone...

Clear English please.

[goodiewarrior]

Clear English please.

I think I was very clear...

I want to send an outputChatBox only to the users who have some certain elementData value, others cannot see the outputchatbboz

[Captain Cody]

if getElementData(player,"Test") == true then -- "Test" -> Set your element data here 
outputChatBox("TEST") -- > Set your text Here 
end

And serverside?

[Captain Cody]

if getElementData(player,"Test") == true then -- "Test" -> Set your element data here 
    outputChatBox("TEST",player) -- > Set your text Here 
    end

Putting this code dirrectly in the server side will not work correctly, you'll have to define the player element else the entire code will be failed to load.

I think I gotta use a loop with all players and make an IF check?

Like Teamsay.

Depends on what you are planning to do.

KariiiM, I put that assuming he would know how to do it.

Any ways

     
function join () 
for i,player in pairs(getElementsByType("player") do 
if getElementData(player,"Test") == true then -- "Test" -> Set your element data here 
        outputChatBox("TEST",player) -- > Set your text Here 
          end 
      end 
  end 
  
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), join )

Yes Codly, I was just reminding him that's all.

By the way, this line number '2' is going to output an error, you forgot to add an ')' before do

      
for i,player in pairs(getElementsByType("player") do 
  

for _, player in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 

[Captain Cody]

Ah yes, always make that mistake, for some reason notepad ++ automaticly changes that to a single ) instead of both.
