Random survivor script

kewizzle · April 21, 2017

so I am trying to create a random survivor script and when the first survivor dies survivorPed it also destroys elements survivorMarker, survivorBlip and survivorPed. But when the next survivor spawns it does not do that and it does not spawn a survivor after 15 seconds.

addEventHandler("onResourceStart", root, function()
		function spawnSurvivor()
				survivorPed = createPed(livingPeds[rnd2][1], spawns[rnd][1], spawns[rnd][2], spawns[rnd][3], spawns[rnd][4])
				survivorMarker = createMarkerAttachedTo ( survivorPed, "cylinder", 4.0, 0, 0, 255, 255 )
				survivorBlip = createBlipAttachedTo( survivorPed, 47 )
				outputChatBox("The Survivor Was Saved! New one spawning soon.")
		end

spawnSurvivor()
		
addEventHandler("onPedWasted", survivorPed, function()
		outputChatBox("The Survivor Was Saved! New one spawning soon.")
		destroyElement(survivorMarker)
		destroyElement(survivorBlip)
		destroyElement(survivorPed)
		setTimer(spawnSurvivor, 15000, 1)

	end)
end)

this works but now the location isnt random

function spawnSurvivor()
	survivorPed = createPed(livingPeds[rnd2][1], spawns[rnd][1], spawns[rnd][2], spawns[rnd][3], spawns[rnd][4])
	survivorMarker = createMarkerAttachedTo ( survivorPed, "cylinder", 4.0, 0, 0, 255, 255 )
	survivorBlip = createBlipAttachedTo( survivorPed, 47 )
	outputChatBox("The Survivor Was Saved! New one spawning soon.")
			
			addEventHandler("onPedWasted", survivorPed, function()
				outputChatBox("The Survivor Was Saved! New one spawning soon.")
				destroyElement(survivorMarker)
				destroyElement(survivorBlip)
				destroyElement(survivorPed)
				setTimer(spawnSurvivor, 15000, 1)

	end)
end

addEventHandler("onResourceStart", root, function()
spawnSurvivor()
end)

and

survivorPed = createPed(livingPeds[rnd2].id, spawns[rnd].xf, spawns[rnd].yf, spawns[rnd].zf, spawns[rnd].ro)

still not working as it should, both scripts however did a random spawn and skin on each resource restart tho.

each time the spawnSurvivor function is called by setTimer it spawns a new survivorPed with a random location in the table and a random skin. Basically onPedWasted it destroys the ped, blimp and marker and then 15 seconds later respawns somewhere else, kinda like breifcase.

function spawnSurvivor()
	survivorPed = createPed(livingPeds[rnd2][1], spawns[rnd][1], spawns[rnd][2], spawns[rnd][3], spawns[rnd][4])
	survivorMarker = createMarkerAttachedTo ( survivorPed, "cylinder", 4.0, 0, 0, 255, 255 )
	survivorBlip = createBlipAttachedTo( survivorPed, 47 )
	outputChatBox("The Survivor Was Saved! New one spawning soon.")
			

end

			addEventHandler("onPedWasted", survivorPed, function()
				outputChatBox("The Survivor Was Saved! New one spawning soon.")
				destroyElement(survivorMarker)
				destroyElement(survivorBlip)
				destroyElement(survivorPed)
				setTimer(spawnSurvivor, 15000, 1)

	end)

get out the pedwasted event from the function
and if there is debug errors post it

expected element at argument 2 for addEventHandler onPedWasted

survivorMarker = 0
survivorBlip = 0
survivorPed = 0

put this in the top of the script

now a single ped spawns but still gives the debug error as well as doesnt destroy the elements onPedWasted or respawn.

return the function with the event inside it like it was before i tell you to split them and try

already returned it. It works perfect except the random stuff.

it doesnt work i get the error bad argument at createMarkerAttachedTo expected element at argument 1 got boolean and when i remove that line(which is needed for further development) i get 3 more errors, createPed expected element at argument 1 got nil and createBlipAttachedTo element expected at argument 1 got boolean and addEventHandler expected element at argument 2 got boolean

You gotta learn have to fix easy errors like these.

works but aye i can fix the easy errors, I like to speed up the process by posting tho cuz im working on it as you professionals help. Im a moderate scripter i guess.

youre really good at scripting so im wondering okay so i got this

function hitSurv(playerSource)
	
	outputChatBox(getPlayerName(playerSource).." Has Collected The Survivor!", server, 0, 255, 0)
	destroyElement(survivorMarker)
	destroyElement(survivorBlip)
	setElementData(playerSource, "hasSurv", true)
	toMarker = createMarker(-719, 951, 11, "cylinder", 3, 255, 0, 255, 150, playerSource)
	saveBlip = createBlipAttachedTo( toMarker, 22 )
	setPedAnimation( survivorPed, "ped", "WOMAN_run")
	addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", toMarker, hitSurvDes)
end

i need the ped to follow me once i hit the marker but all i got it to do is run. is there a way to use setPedLookAt to work with the server side created ped?

I think you'll have to use setElementRotation and a ton of math.
