[LUA] Marker teleporting into interior

[ReeferMadness]

This is my first time posting

I have this script that teleports you into Jefferson Motel when you hit the marker. I have it working when you go inside the motel, however if you try to walk outside, the marker doesn't do anything. Almost as if there is no script telling you to go outside.

This is my script.

function motel(player)
    if (source == motelOutside and getElementType(player) == "player") then
        setElementInterior(player, 15, 2216,-1150.5,1025)
        setElementFrozen(player,false)
        setTimer(setElementFrozen, 1000, 1, player, false)
        outputChatBox("Entering the motel...", player)
    elseif (source == motelInside and getElementType(player) == "player") then
        setElementInterior(player, 0, spawnX,spawnY,spawnZ)
        setElementFrozen(player,false)
        setTimer(setElementFrozen, 1000, 1, player, false)
    end
end
	addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", root, motel)

Have you tried to use setElementInterior on the marker? So it's within the same interior as the player?

Please post your entire used script, as we need to know more than your function, how are the markers made?

	                --MARKERS
motelOutside = createMarker( 2333.5, -1943.5, 14, "cylinder", 1, 255, 255, 0, 170 )
motelInside = createMarker( 2215, -1150.5, 1024.5, "cylinder", 1, 255, 255, 0, 170 )
setElementInterior(motelInside, 15, 2215, -1150.5, 1024)

setElementInterior ( motelInside,15 )

setElementInterior ( motelInside,15 )

 

I replaced this (took out coordinates x,y,z) and still running into the same issue

[iPrestege]

Can you please tell me what the debug say

I dont get a message in the console from debug

[iPrestege]

If you can upload the script in here so i can check it.

[Dealman]

Have you tried moving the marker a bit? For example try and move it up a little bit? Or to the left/right, maybe it's in some awkward position where it can't register the event.

I just test it and works fine just put your 'spawnX,spawnY,spawnZ' Position and it will work and make sure it's server side in meta.xml file!

Hmmm.. can you go both in and out?

[iPrestege]

Yes can you please post your meta.xml file so i can check if there's something wrong.

I dont have the meta.xml on me right now but I know it was working because the teleport script was part of one big server script that had other commands I wrote that were also working

[iPrestege]

Then nothing i can do for you in the moment i checked the script and it was working perfectly.

Im going to try reinstalling mta

[Dealman]

I just tried it as well, it didn't work for me either - so I tried moving the inside marker up by 1 unit and after that it was working. Weird

Try this

local motelOutside = createMarker( 2333.5, -1943.5, 15, "cylinder", 1, 255, 255, 0, 170 )
local motelInside = createMarker( 2215, -1150.5, 1025, "cylinder", 1, 255, 255, 0, 170 )
setElementInterior(motelInside, 15)

function motel(player)
    if player and isElement(player) and getElementType(player) == "player" and not isPedInVehicle(player) then
        if (source == motelOutside) then
            setElementInterior(player, 15, 2216,-1150.5,1025)
            setElementFrozen(player,true)
            setTimer(setElementFrozen, 1000, 1, player, false)
        elseif (source == motelInside) then
            setElementInterior(player, 0, 2335, -1943.5, 15)
            setElementFrozen(player,true)
            setTimer(setElementFrozen, 1000, 1, player, false)
        end 
    end
end
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", root, motel)

Turns out that the marker was slightly submerged into the floor. Its working perfectly now thanks everyone in this forum topic!
