sync bug (setElementData)

Xwad · October 29, 2016

Hi! This script makes possible to play a 3d sound (looped sound) by pressing the CTRL button, and stop the sound when the CTRL button is "up". Well, it has a really annoying sync bug. As you can see, there is a setElementData function in my client side script, that stores the sound element. When the player stops pressing the CTRL button then the script stops the sound with the stored element. Well the problem is that when another player press the CTRL button then the setElementData will be overwritted, and will cause really strange, annoying bugs.

So the bug is: when player1 press CTRL, and after that player2 also press CTRL then the sound for player1 will not stop anymore, because player2 owerwrited the setElementData, when he pressed CTRL. Well, its not easy to explain, so i hope you understood me.

Is the any way to avoid this owerwriting? or do i have to do this another way, without setElementData? Thanks in advance.

One of errors and mistakes in your code ;

triggerServerEvent ( "start_fire_sound", resourceRoot, veh )

So for the sync i'm pretty sure because of the 'resourceRoot' use 'localPlayer' instead of that.

from the server side you are triggering to root and the wiki syntax says ;

bool triggerClientEvent ( [table/element sendTo=getRootElement()], string name, element sourceElement, [arguments...] )

I changed all triggerServerEvents to:

triggerServerEvent ( "start_fire_sound", localPlayer, veh )

In the server side i changed the getRootElement() to source

triggerClientEvent ("start_fire_sound", source, veh)

Now the problem is that other player cant hear the sound (sync is not working).

Please help!

iPrestege · October 30, 2016

triggerClientEvent ( source,"start_fire_sound",root,veh )

Xwad · October 30, 2016

other players still can't hear it

Try my code and inform me the results.

Now the sync works again, but it has the same bug as the first time (the sound will not stop for player2 because the setElementData is owerwrited). And it has now one more bug. the sound_fire_lastshot is always repeating:/

KariiiM · October 30, 2016

Change the old client code by this:

	if isPedInVehicle ( localPlayer ) then
		local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( localPlayer )
		if ( theVehicle and getElementModel ( theVehicle ) == 476 ) then 
			triggerServerEvent ( "start_fire_sound", localPlayer, theVehicle ) 
		end
	end
end
bindKey ( "lctrl", "down", start_fire_sound )

local fireSound = { }
local lastShot = { }

addEvent ( "return_start_fire_sound", true )
addEventHandler ( "return_start_fire_sound", root, 
	function ( )
		if isElement ( fireSound [ localPlayer ] ) then
			destroyElement ( fireSound [ localPlayer ] ) 
		end
		local x, y, z = getElementPosition ( source )
		fireSound [ localPlayer ] = playSound3D ( "files/fire.wav", x, y, z, true )
		setSoundVolume ( fireSound [ localPlayer ], 1 )
		setSoundMaxDistance ( fireSound [ localPlayer ], 500 )
		attachElements ( fireSound [ localPlayer ], source, 0, 0, 0 ) 
	end
)
 
--stop sound
function stop_fire_sound ( )
	if isPedInVehicle ( localPlayer ) then
		local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( localPlayer )
		if ( theVehicle and getElementModel ( theVehicle ) == 476 ) then
			triggerServerEvent ( "stop_fire_sound", localPlayer, theVehicle ) 
		end
	end
end
bindKey ( "lctrl", "up", stop_fire_sound )
 
addEvent( "return_stop_fire_sound", true )
addEventHandler( "return_stop_fire_sound", root,

now it has a new bug: when player1 press CTRL then the sound starts. But when player2 press CTRL too, then the sound stops for player1!

Try this ;

On client ;

Now it works perfect! I just changed false to true at line 11 in client side to make the sound looped!! Thanks Kariim and FaHaD for your help!! <3

KariiiM · October 30, 2016

Yeah because this boolean is for the sound loop

Walid · October 31, 2016

i don't know what are you trying to do i just optimized the code reply if it dosent work.

Client side

local playeSound = {}

addEvent ( 'playSound',true );
addEventHandler ( 'playSound',root,
  function ( aVehicle,sound)
    if aVehicle and sound then
        if playeSound [ aVehicle ] and isElement ( playeSound [ aVehicle ] ) then
            destroyElement (playeSound [ aVehicle ])
            playeSound [ aVehicle ] = nil
        end 
		
        local position = Vector3(getElementPosition ( aVehicle ))
        playeSound [ aVehicle ] = playSound3D ( 'files/'..sound..'.wav',position.x,position.y,position.z,false)
        setSoundMaxDistance ( playeSound [ aVehicle ], 500 )
        setSoundVolume ( playeSound [ aVehicle ], 1 )
        attachElements ( playeSound [ aVehicle ],aVehicle,0,0,0 )
    end
end
)

Server side

function aMakeSoundPlay (aPlayer,key,keyState,sound)
   if aPlayer and getElementType ( aPlayer ) == 'player' then
       if isPedInVehicle ( aPlayer ) then
            local aVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle( aPlayer )
            local model = getElementModel ( aVehicle )
            if model  == 476 then
               triggerClientEvent ( root,"playSound",root,aVehicle,sound)
            end
        end
    end
end

addEventHandler ( 'onResourceStart',resourceRoot,
  function ()
     local players = getElementsByType ( 'player' ) 
     for i=1, #players do
        binKeyForAll(players[i])
     end
  end
)

addEventHandler ( 'onPlayerJoin',root,
  function ()
     binKeyForAll(source)
  end
)

function binKeyForAll(player)
   if player and isElement(player) then
        bindKey (player,'lctrl','down',aMakeSoundPlay,'fire')
        bindKey (player,'lctrl','up',aMakeSoundPlay,'fire_lastshot')
   end 
end

@Walid

Your code won't work if he presses mouse button to fire the weapon.

Use control name "fire" instead of "lctrl".

You're welcome.

Xwad · October 31, 2016

I have a new problem. Do not get me wrong, the previous code works perfect. I just added some new functions in the code. So first i changed all playSound3D to createWeapon, and it worked perfect. But i added a rotation system that does not work. This rotating function makes possible to rotate the object called "object3" to that direction where the "misc_a" (vehicle component) and the "misc_c" (vehicle component) is rotating at. The problem is that its not rotating the object. I hope you can help me again. Thanks in advance!

client

object3 = {};
mg1 = {};
mg2 = {};

addEvent ( 'fire_mg',true );
addEventHandler ( 'fire_mg',root,
  function ( aVehicle,aX,aY,aZ )
      if aVehicle and aX and aY and aZ then
	    object3 [ aVehicle ] = createObject ( 357, aX,aY,aZ)
        attachElements ( object3 [ aVehicle ], aVehicle, -0.05,10,3, 0,0,90 )
	    mg1 [ aVehicle ] = createWeapon("m4", aX,aY,aZ)
	    mg2 [ aVehicle ] = createWeapon("m4", aX,aY,aZ)
     	setWeaponFiringRate(mg1 [ aVehicle ], 20)
	    setWeaponFiringRate(mg2 [ aVehicle ], 20)
        setWeaponState(mg1 [ aVehicle ], "firing")
        setWeaponState(mg2 [ aVehicle ], "firing")
	    attachElements(mg1 [ aVehicle ], object3 [ aVehicle ], 0.2, 0.2, 0, 0, 0, 0)
	    attachElements(mg2 [ aVehicle ], object3 [ aVehicle ], 0.2, -0.3, 0, 0, 0, 0)			
	  
        setElementData ( aVehicle,'mgFireOn',true );
        
		local veh = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer)
		setElementData ( aVehicle,'object3',object3 [ aVehicle ] );
		
		addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,rotate_object)
    end
end
);

function rotate_object()
local veh = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer)
local _,_,rz = getVehicleComponentRotation(veh, "misc_a")
local rx,_,_ = getVehicleComponentRotation(veh, "misc_c")
triggerServerEvent("rotateWeapon", localPlayer, rx,rz)
end

and the server side

function rotateWeapon(rx,rz)
outputChatBox("rotate_s")
local object3 = getElementData ( aVehicle, "object3" )
rx = (-rx)
setElementAttachedOffsets ( object3, 0, 5.25, 2.45, 0, rx+7, rz+96)
end
addEvent("rotateWeapon", true)
addEventHandler("rotateWeapon", root, rotateWeapon)


function fire ( aPlayer )
    if aPlayer and getElementType ( aPlayer ) == 'player' then
      if isPedInVehicle ( aPlayer ) then
        local aVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle( aPlayer );
        if aVehicle and getElementModel ( aVehicle ) == 592 then
          local aX,aY,aZ = getElementPosition ( aVehicle );
          triggerClientEvent ( root,'fire_mg',root,aVehicle,aX,aY,aZ );
      end
    end
  end
end


function bind_start()
for _,aPlayers in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( 'player' ) ) do
bindKey ( aPlayers,'mouse1','down',fire );
end
end
addEventHandler ( 'onResourceStart',resourceRoot,bind_start)

function bind_join()
bindKey ( aPlayers,'mouse1','down',fire );
end
