table data

[Daniels69]

 local bases = {
 {2412.8,92,26.47,1830.7,-1930.1,2955.6001,"garaza","playerserial"},
 {1835.7,-1930.1,2955.6001,2412.8,92,26.40,"garaza2","playerserial"},
}

and i need to get data out of the table, basically i want to contain all data about bases in table. Adding them manually , like in e.x above.

but the problem is i don't know how to get data out of the table.
for e.x i need these.
 

local x,y,z = 2412.8,92,26.47 -- get the coordinates of first 3 values in the table
local x1,y1,z1 = 1830.7,-1930.1,2955.600-- the 4,5,6 index in table
password = "garaza2" -- get base password
local ownerserial = "playerserial" -- last one , get base owner serial

any one can help me? i need to fill those local x,y,z e.t.c with data from table for each base.

local table1 = {}
table1[2] = someValue
table.insert(table1, someValue2) --the lowest empty index is 1 (tables in lua starts from index 1)
table1.somePosition = someValue3
if table1.somePosition == table1["somePosition"] then
  --this get executed
end
--table is now like { [1] = someValue2, [2] = someValue, somePosition = someValue3 }
table1[1] --returns someValue2
table1[2] --returns someValue
table1.somePosition --returns someValue3
table1["somePosition"] --return someValue3, as it's the same as above
table1[3] --returns nil, no value was assigned here

--tables can also have as index objects
table1[localPlayer] = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer)
if table1.localPlayer == table1[localPlayer] then
  --this WON'T be executed
end
if table1.localPlayer == table1["localPlayer"] then
  --this will be executed
end

NOTE: This is not MTA, this is lua. Next time search with google

i've tried it like this:
 

local x,y,z = bases[1],bases[2],bases[3]
local x1,y1,z1 = bases[4],bases[5],bases[6]
password = bases[7]

and it won't work

[LoPollo]

local bases = {
 {2412.8,92,26.47,1830.7,-1930.1,2955.6001,"garaza","playerserial"},
 {1835.7,-1930.1,2955.6001,2412.8,92,26.40,"garaza2","playerserial"},
}
--bases[1] = {2412.8,92,26.47,1830.7,-1930.1,2955.6001,"garaza","playerserial"}
--so we have to do:
local x,y,z = bases[1][1], bases[1][2], bases[1][3]
--x,y,z are the data of the FIRST table: 2412.8, 92, 26.47
--do the same for the second table:
local x2,y2,z2 = bases[2][1], bases[2][2], bases[2][3]

Now do the same for the rest

if use createMarker with x,y,z , it doesnt work. Tried add tonumber() before bases[1][1] and then even in createMarker function. Dunno where is the problem.

Strange....

Try to output the x,y,z values to know what's in them

Are there errors logged? (debugscript 3 or the .log file)

Also did you follow the syntax of createMarker? 

Post the code block you used

local x,y,z = bases[1][1],bases[1][2],bases[1][3]
local marker = createMarker ( x,y,z, "cylinder", 2, 82, 203, 54, 18, getRootElement() )

i can't see any error... but alpha is 18 so maybe you can't see it due to transparency?

is this man just asking for a simple loop through his data table?
Just loop through your data table and do what you need to do with each row

function mytrigger()
	local bases = {
	 {2412.8,92,26.47,1830.7,-1930.1,2955.6001,"garaza","playerserial"},
	 {1835.7,-1930.1,2955.6001,2412.8,92,26.40,"garaza2","playerserial"},
	}


	for key, value in ipairs(bases) do
		local x,y,z,x1,y1,z1,password,ownerserial = value[1],value[2],value[3],value[4],value[5],value[6],value[7],value[8]
		-- do your workings with each row here
		outputConsole(tostring(ownerserial))
	end  

end
addCommandHandler ( "mytrigger", mytrigger )

I've added a command handler so you can output the result to the console for testing yourself.

When outputting to the console be sure to use tostring() for any value that is not a string already
