problem flood outputChatBox

[OrbTanT]

Personal, script is working well, only problem is when the two gangs meet in the same territory, it is repeated several times as a message because of the timer, already trying in several ways to run only once.

 

Repeat this several times because of the timer:

if ( isOwnerInTurf and isGangInTurf ) then
				exports.GWgang:outputGangMessage ( "O ataque no territorio "..turfLocs[id].name.." está pausado enquanto as duas gangs estiverem no territorio! Elimine a gang inimiga!", turfLocs[id].attackers, 255, 255, 0)
				exports.GWgang:outputGangMessage ( "O ataque no territorio "..turfLocs[id].name.." está pausado enquanto as duas gangs estiverem no territorio! Elimine a gang inimiga!", turfLocs[id].owner, 255, 255, 0)

 

setTimer ( function ( ) 
	for id, data in pairs ( turfLocs ) do 
		if ( data.attackers ) then
			local players = { attackers = { }, owners = { } }
			local isGangInTurf = false
			local isOwnerInTurf = false
			for i, v in pairs ( getElementsWithinColShape ( data.col, "player" ) ) do
				local g = exports.GWgang:getPlayerGang ( v )
				if ( g == data.attackers ) then
					isGangInTurf = true
					table.insert ( players.attackers, v )
				elseif ( g == data.owner ) then
					isOwnerInTurf = true
					table.insert ( players.owners, v )
				end
			end
			if ( isOwnerInTurf and isGangInTurf ) then

Someone?

[ViRuZGamiing]

give the timer a name and kill it, killTimer()

[OrbTanT]

I can not use a killTimer, because it uses the timer to check if the players are in the territory or not.

how about giving it a name and checking isTimer() before creating?

local timer

if not isTimer(timer) then

timer = setTimer(...)

end
