Who can write a simple script for mec?

[mores2]

Who can tell me what is wrong with this script and what gui function should I use to repair it ?

[mores2]

Client :

local osW, osH = 1024,768  
local csW, csH = guiGetScreenSize()  
local DrawText = dxDrawText 
  
function dxDrawText(...) 
    arg[2], arg[3], arg[4], arg[5], arg[7] = arg[2]/osW*csW, arg[3]/osH*csH, arg[4]/osW*csW, arg[5]/osH*csH, (arg[7] or 1)/osW*csW 
    return DrawText(unpack(arg)) 
end 
  
  
local isTimerVisible = false 
  
function displayCounter() 
    dxDrawText("Your vehicle will change in: "..count, 237 + 1, 644 + 1, 811 + 1, 685 + 1, tocolor(0, 0, 0, 255), 1.60, "default", "center", "center", false, false, true, false, false)  
    dxDrawText("Your vehicle will change in: "..count, 237, 644, 811, 685, tocolor(255, 162, 0, 255), 1.60, "default", "center", "center", false, false, true, false, false) -- foreground 
end 
  
function showCounter(Time) 
    if Time then 
        count = Time 
        counting = setTimer(function() 
            count = count - 1 
        end,1000,count) 
        
        if not isTimerVisible then 
            addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,displayCounter) 
            isTimerVisible = true 
        end 
    else 
        if isTimer(counting) then 
            killTimer(counting) 
        end 
        removeEventHandler("onClientRender",root,displayCounter) 
        isTimerVisible = false 
    end 
end 
addEvent("showCounter",true) 
addEventHandler("showCounter",resourceRoot,showCounter) 

Server :

local Time = 15  
  
function onRoundStart(state) 
    if state == "Running" then 
        changeVeh() 
        changeTimer = setTimer(changeVeh,Time*1000,0) 
    elseif state == "PostFinish" or state == "TimesUp" or state == "EveryoneFinished" or state == "SomeoneWon" or state == "ResourceStopping" or state == "NoMap" or state == "LoadingMap" then 
        if isTimer(changeTimer) then 
            killTimer(changeTimer) 
        end 
        triggerClientEvent("showCounter",resourceRoot,false) 
    end 
end 
addEvent("onRaceStateChanging",true) 
addEventHandler("onRaceStateChanging",root,onRoundStart) 
  
function onRacerWasted() 
    outputChatBox(getPlayerName(source).." died.") 
    triggerClientEvent(source,"showCounter",resourceRoot,false) 
end 
addEvent("onPlayerRaceWasted",true) 
addEventHandler("onPlayerRaceWasted",root,onRacerWasted) 
  
function changeVeh() 
    for _,plr in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
        if not isPedDead(plr) then 
            triggerClientEvent(plr,"showCounter",resourceRoot,Time) 
            local veh = getPedOccupiedVehicle(plr) 
            local model = vehicleIDS[math.random(1,#vehicleIDS)] 
            if veh and model and getPedOccupiedVehicleSeat(plr) == 0 then 
                local x,y,z = getElementVelocity(veh) 
                setElementVelocity(veh,x,y,z+0.05) 
                local hp = getElementHealth(veh) 
                setElementModel(veh,model) 
                setElementHealth(veh,hp) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end 

But my version dont't restart after map loading and sometimes crash what is wrong with it ?

Maybe try and fix it on your own. This will probably be useful to you: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Resource:Race

[mores2]

Thank you for your hint Do you think should I start make client start from zero ?

[Tails]

Yeah, why not?

[mores2]

This counter (client) is compatible with main script but I still don't have idea how to restart it after map loading because this wiki article dont say me enought

local sX,sY = guiGetScreenSize() 
local counter = 15 
local r,g,b = 0,255,0 
  
function drawCounterSHI() 
    dxDrawText("Your vehicle will change in: "..counter,0,sY*0.8,sX,sY,tocolor(r,g,b,255),2,"default","center","top",false,false,false) 
end 
  
function startEverything() 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,drawCounterSHI) 
setTimer(function() 
    counter = counter - 1 
    if counter < 1 then 
        counter = 15 
        r,g,b = 0,255,0 
    end 
    if counter <= 3 then 
        r,g,b = 255,0,0 
    end 
end,1000,0) 
  
end 
addEvent("onCounterStart",true) 
addEventHandler("onCounterStart",getRootElement(),startEverything) 

server works as should be

  
vehicleIDS = { 602, 545, 496, 517, 401, 410, 518, 600, 527, 436, 589, 580, 419, 439, 533, 549, 526, 491, 474, 445, 467, 604, 426, 507, 547, 585,

who can solve my problem ? it is important for me

[mores2]

We are close to finish it Please guys only what I want is to make the client to restart always after map loading

[mores2]

refresh

[Tails]

Shit, I don't know man.

[mores2]

I hope on this forum exist a man who can do it

[Captain Cody]

Is the issue you are having now the same issue that you originally posted this thread for?

[mores2]

You know man, always ok but (couter) which means client dont restarting after map loading and yeah it is the same problem

The client should work like server ( main script ) it's always restarting after map loading ( 3,2,1,go ) and then

[Tails]

My script was working when I tested it.

[mores2]

Yes your script works Tails but not as should be, becouse your script don't restart after map loading (if I remember it freeze), you can check this when map will change your script will do crazy things and (counter) is not punctual with main script, wait for (5 changes vehicle and you will see).

You should wait few (vehicle changes) and change map few times to see what happens

I think now you know about what I say

[mores3]

Hello guys !  

I have thought about this script a long time, and I decided to finish it. I can't do it alone, I've  tried do this but something don't work. 

 

Could you Guys please make me a present for Christmas ? Just help me with this counter  

 

PS: Merry Christmas everyone 

[Simple0x47]

What do you want?

[pa3ck]

So since you created this topic (June) you still have no idea how to reset a counter? That means you are just lazy to do anything. Also a tip, when you forget your password on a forum account, try to use "Forgot my password" link to recover it, don't need to create different accounts every time you need help.

[mores3]

Simple01 

I need to set a counter

1. it have start everytime after 3.2.1.GO <--- then it have to start and do it again on next map (very map) 

 

PS: pa3ck ,- I know about  "Forgot my password" but i dont have access to my old email account 

[mores3]

any ideas guys ? 

[Rataj]

Mores, little tip for next time: Learn to script, or find someone to do it for you. If you'll have problems with script (some piece of your code will not work), we are always here to help. But on the other side, I totally agree with pa3ck.

[mores3]

I know it men at all. 

I only aks you guys for help . 

And I refereshed this old topic now because since june I haven't time for PC

[pa3ck]

Okay, this section is for helping scripters when they are stuck / need help. There's another section for requesting code. If I understand you correctly, you want a timer that changes vehicles every x seconds and resets when a map starts. Well, probably there is no magic behind it, there must be an event which calls the new maps, use that event to reset your timer. As far as I'm concerned, the timer part has already been posted in this topic.

Edited December 26, 2016 by pa3ck

[mores3]

ok give me name of this event or ( section in wiki about I can read )

[pa3ck]

The event is in your gamemode, how could I know the name of it?
