Weather System Problem.

[itHyperoX]

Hi guys.

The script:

local oldRand = 1

function settheweather()

repeat
	typee = math.random(0, 12)
	until oldRand ~= typee	

if typee == 0 then
 weather = "Weather1"
 
 elseif typee == 1 then
 weather = "Weather2"
 
 elseif typee == 2 then
 weather = "Weather3"
 
 elseif typee == 3 then
 weather = "Weather4"
 
 elseif typee == 4 then
 weather = "Weather5"
 
 elseif typee == 5 then
 weather = "Weather6"
 
 elseif typee == 6 then
 weather = "Weather7"
 
 elseif typee == 7 then
 weather = "Weather8"
 
 elseif typee == 8 then
 weather = "Weather9"
 
 elseif typee == 9 then
 weather = "Weather10"
 
 elseif typee == 10 then
 weather = "Weather11"
 
 elseif typee == 22 then
 weather = "Weather12" 
 
 end
 
setWeather (tonumber(typee))
outputChatBox("[Weather] " .. weather .. " ", getRootElement(), 255, 255, 20, true)		
end

addEventHandler("onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()),
	function ()
		settheweather()
		setTimer(settheweather, 1800000, 0)
end
)

 

error:

"codeServer.lua:48: attempt to concatenate global 'weather' (a nil value)

 

Anyone can help me please?

...

local oldRand = 1


function settheweather(weather)

repeat
	typee = math.random(0, 12)
	until oldRand ~= typee	

	if typee == 0 then
	weather = "Weather1"
 
	elseif typee == 1 then

		settheweather()
		setTimer(settheweather, 7800, 0) -- test
end
)

You create a random number between 0 and 12, but in the "elseif blocks" you only have 0 to 10 and 22. Shouldn't you have 0 -> 12?

Sorry, i can't edit my post. However, why you don't use this?

function settheweather()
	typee = math.random(0, 19)
	setWeather (tonumber(typee))
	outputChatBox("[Weather] Weather"..tonumber(typee), getRootElement(), 255, 255, 20, true)		
end


addEventHandler("onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()),
	function ()
	settheweather()
	setTimer(settheweather, 1000, 0) -- test line
end)

Thanks Hit again

But i wanted like this:

 

1. if typee == 0 then
2. weather = "Very Hot"
3. elseif typee == 1 then
4. weather = "Hot"
5. elseif typee == 2 then
6. weather = "Rain"

 

i hoep you understand.

Here is my weather system, I think using this method (using tables) is easier.

local weatherTable={			
    { weatherid=0, name="very sunny" },
	{ weatherid=1, name="sunny" },
    { weatherid=2, name="sunny but foggy" },
	{ weatherid=8, name="rainy" },
    { weatherid=9, name="foggy" },
}

local currentWeatherTable={}

function setNewWeather()
	currentFogDistance = getFogDistance()
    while (#currentWeatherTable<7) do
		table.insert(currentWeatherTable,weatherTable[math.random(1,#weatherTable)])
    end
end


function weatherSystemStart()
	setTimer(newWeather, 1000, 1)
end
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot,setNewWeather)
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot,weatherSystemStart)

function newWeather()
    local weather=table.remove(currentWeatherTable,1)
    outputChatBox("the weather is now "..weather.name)
    setWeatherBlended(weather.weatherid)
    setNewWeather()
end
setTimer(newWeather, 1000*(math.random(5, 10))*60, 0)

You can add more weathers by just adding a new line to the table and changing the id and the name to whatever you want.
