Distance of blips in F11?

[Bean666]

hello. i used

setBlipVisibleDistance 

for blips to be visible from a close range. it works only in the Mini-radar, but it doesn't work on F11. how to make it also happen in F11? i've been wondering about this since before.

local blip = createBlip (-1025.5458984375, -977.3447265625, 129.21875, 44, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 250) 
setBlipVisibleDistance(blip, 150)

addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, function() 
    setTimer(function() 
        local localX, localY = getElementPosition(localPlayer) 
        for _, blip in pairs(getElementsByType("blip")) do 
            local blipX, blipY = getElementPosition(blip) 
            if(getDistanceBetweenPoints2D(localX, localY, blipX, blipY) > 250) then 
                setBlipVisibleDistance(blip, 500) 
                destroyElement ( blip ) 
            end 
        end 
    end, 500, 0)    
end) 

this one works in F11 and radar when you go far away from blip, but when you come back , blip isnt coming back anymore, which is easier to solve? the one i wrote above or htis?

bump.

You need to save deleted blips somewhere and then load them again, if they're nearby.

local hiddenblips = { } 
  
setTimer(function() 
    local localX, localY = getElementPosition(localPlayer) 
     
    for _, blip in pairs(getElementsByType("blip")) do 
        local blipX, blipY = getElementPosition(blip) 
        local maxdistance = getBlipVisibleDistance(blip) 
        local r, g, b, a = getBlipColor(blip) 
        if(getDistanceBetweenPoints2D(localX, localY, blipX, blipY) > maxdistance) then 
            table.insert(hiddenblips, { blipX, blipY, getBlipIcon(blip), getBlipSize(blip), getBlipOrdering(blip), maxdistance, r, g, b, a }) 
            destroyElement(blip) 
        end 
    end 
     
    for key, blip in pairs(hiddenblips) do 
        if(getDistanceBetweenPoints2D(localX, localY, blip[1], blip[2]) < blip[6]) then 
            createBlip( blip[1], blip[2], 0, blip[3], blip[4], blip[7], blip[8], blip[9], blip[10], blip[5], blip[6] ) 
            hiddenblips[key] = nil 
        end 
    end 
end, 500, 0)

that's possible to work on a playerblip right?

Make sure the script is client-sided.

[Bean666]

20: attempt to compare number with nil

it's now Cside.

[Rataj]

You are not supposed to put anything inside that array.

Just normally create your blips and attach script I wrote.

[Bean666]

aight thanks it worked, will this work on playerblips too>?

[Rataj]

For playerblips you need to check if blip is attached to something and re-attach it again in second loop. Then it should work fine.
