HELP! 4 problems

[marty000123]

Problem 1:

function getInMarker(hitElement, matchingDimension)
local acc = getPlayerAccount(hitElement)
if getAccountData(acc, "green") == true then
triggerClientEvent("skin", hitElement)
end
if not getAccountData(acc, "green") == true then
else outputChatBox("You're not with the Special Military Unit!", hitElement, 255, 0, 0)
end
end
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", marker1, getInMarker)

My AccountData(acc, "green") is true. I made sure of that. Yet, it also gives the chatbox output. Why is that?
Btw can u guys make it so when a vehicle enters the marker, nothing happens? I tried a few things but couldn't figure out how to do it.

Problem 2:

This problem occured to me, and a few others. To others, it didn't. Weird. After the player logs in, they can choose between a team and class. Normally they would spawn, but now they don't. They're stuck on a black screen, and if the mode Freeroam is on, all they can see is a sky (above the Mt Chilliad). To spawn, you have to click on F1, map, then double click somewhere. But normally, you should be able to just spawn when you enter the class panel. Some players are able to do it just this way, so I'm wondering why not us? I'm thinking this is a server problem as I'm not the only one. But what's weird is that when the player logged out at a certain spot, and when he logs back in, the player's blip is still at the old place. (Only when freeroam is on). There we are, problem number 3.

Problem 3:

When I change team and die, the blip doesn't change color. No warnings/errors. When I do /kill (simple script: function() killPlayer addcommandhandler kill), it gives a couple of warnings (the same time each time): playerblips.lua:66: Bad Argument @ getElementType expected element at argument 1 got boolean. I suspect this has something to do with problem 2, maybe the blip doesn't disappear on logout, or something goes wrong? As the blip stays at the location when the bug of problem 2 appears, on the location where the player logged out last time.

Part of the script:

function destroyBlipsAttachedTo(player)
    local attached = getAttachedElements ( player )
    if ( attached ) then
        for k,element in ipairs(attached) do
         LINE 66=   if getElementType ( element ) == "blip" then
                destroyElement ( element )
            end
        end
    end
end

Problem 4:

I have a Skin Selector script. 6 buttons, 6 skins. If you click a button, a server-side script will be triggered. But for some reason, only one of those buttons work. Well, they all work as the gui disappears everytime someone clicks a button, but the skin actually changes on only one button and I have no idea why as I copy-pasted the same script, so it's weird that a random button works and the rest don't. For some strange :Oing reason, only the VIP skin change works.. Script:

SERVER:
	function sergeant()
setElementModel(source, 278)
end
addEventHandler ( "sergeant", getRootElement(), sergeant )
addEvent("sergeant", true)
	function commander()
setElementModel(source, 279)
end
addEventHandler ( "commander", getRootElement(), commander )
addEvent("commander", true)
	function vip()
setElementModel(source, 50)
end
addEventHandler ( "vip", getRootElement(), vip )
addEvent("vip", true)
	--
	CLIENT:
	        GUIEditor.button[3] = guiCreateButton(92, 227, 250, 83, "Male 2", false, GUIEditor.window[1])
        GUIEditor.button[4] = guiCreateButton(448, 229, 271, 81, "V I P", false, GUIEditor.window[1])
        GUIEditor.button[5] = guiCreateButton(91, 353, 251, 85, "Male 3", false, GUIEditor.window[1])
	addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",root, 
function()   
if source == GUIEditor.button[1] then 
triggerServerEvent("recruit", localPlayer) 
showCursor(false)
guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false)  
end 
if source == GUIEditor.button[2] then 
triggerServerEvent("commander", localPlayer) 
showCursor(false)
guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false)  
end 
if source == GUIEditor.button[3] then 
triggerServerEvent("soldier", localPlayer) 
showCursor(false)
guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false)  
end 
if source == GUIEditor.button[4] then 
triggerServerEvent("vip", localPlayer) 
showCursor(false)
guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false)  
end 
if source == GUIEditor.button[5] then 
triggerServerEvent("sergeant", localPlayer) 
showCursor(false)
guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false)  
end 
if source == GUIEditor.button[6] then 
triggerServerEvent("female", localPlayer) 
showCursor(false)
guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false)  
end 
if source == GUIEditor.button[7] then 
showCursor(false)
guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false)  
end 
end
)

function getInMarker(player, dimension)
	if getElementType(player) == "player" and dimension then
   	 	if source == marker1 then
			local account = getPlayerAccount(player)
			if getAccountData(account, "green") then
				triggerClientEvent(source, "skin", player)
			else
				outputChatBox("You're not with the Special Military Unit!", player, 255, 0, 0)

Problem 1:

function getInMarker(hitElement, matchingDimension)
    if getElementType(hitElement) ~= "player" then return end
    local acc = getPlayerAccount(hitElement)
    if getAccountData(acc, "green") then -- no need to use "== true" unless you are looking for specific data
        triggerClientEvent("skin", hitElement)
    else
        outputChatBox("You're not with the Special Military Unit!", hitElement, 255, 0, 0)
    end
end
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", marker1, getInMarker)

 

Problem 2:

Use debugscript before choosing your team it should show you the error

Problem 4:

try this

--SERVER:
function setSelectedSkin(skin)
    setElementModel(source, skin)
end
addEvent("onPlayerChooseSkin", true)
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChooseSkin", root, setSelectedSkin )

--CLIENT:
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",GUIEditor.window[1],function()
    local skin = 0
    if source == GUIEditor.button[1] then
        --skin = YOUR SKIN ID
    elseif source == GUIEditor.button[2] then
        skin = 279
    elseif source == GUIEditor.button[3] then
        --skin = YOUR SKIN ID
    elseif source == GUIEditor.button[4] then
        skin = 50
    elseif source == GUIEditor.button[5] then
        skin = 278
    elseif source == GUIEditor.button[6] then
        --skin = YOUR SKIN ID
    elseif source == GUIEditor.button[7] then
        --skin = YOUR SKIN ID
    end
    showCursor(false)
    guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false)  
    triggerServerEvent("onPlayerChooseSkin", localPlayer) 
end)

Loki, 

Thanks for the problem 1 fix, it worked.

Problem 4 fix didn't sadly.

Problem 2: No errors/warnings/whatsoever. It appears that I actually spawn after login, but the screen stays black. It's like the camera+player position freezes. Because I can see the spawn protection gui on my screen, even tho it's all black. I can also scroll my weapons, as I can see it in my admin panel. But I can't hear my shooting, making me think that the camera is somewhere at the edge of the universe. 

[Mr.Loki]

how do you spawn the player? Can u show that part of the code please?

[marty000123]

Spawn after login:

function greenLogin()
local acc = getPlayerAccount(source)
if getAccountData(acc, "green") == true then
    setPlayerTeam(source, getTeamFromName("Special Military Unit"))
    spawnPlayer (source, 235.47963, 1872.47766, 11.46094, 180, 287, 0)
    triggerClientEvent("class", source)
end
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin", getRootElement(), greenLogin)

(I have 3 scripts like this, one for the SMU team, and 2 other teams, but im not sure if thats relevant...)

[Mr.Loki]

Sorry for late reply, add fadeCamera to the function.

[DarkChemical]

And also use setCameraTarget (if that's what it's called) on the player himself.

[marty000123]

Works, thanks!

Now could someone fix Problem 3 and 4?

Update problem 3: The blip gives the error when u do /kill, and when u changeteam, the blip stays the same color.

[marty000123]

Problem 4 is also fixed, thx to everyone for ur input.

Now can someone help me with the blip/marker prob?

[Mr.Loki]

Are you destroying the blip when a player dies?
