[Help] cooldown

[Lachuks]

Hello! Recently I made VIP panel witch works well. I wanted to add cooldown function but have no idea how to make it done. With cooldown I mean when you take VIP items you can't take them again for some time. That's my one of first scripts ever made. I hope you help me. Thanks!

Code:

function weaponsKit()
local account = getPlayerAccount ( source )   
local accName = getAccountName ( account ) 
	if isObjectInACLGroup ("user."..accName, aclGetGroup ( "VIP" ) ) then 
  		setElementData(source, "MAX_Slots", 200)
  		setElementData(source, "M4", 1)
		outputChatBox("#00ff00Weapon VIP #ffffffitems.",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
	else
		outputChatBox("#ff0000[Error] #ffffffYou don't have VIP!",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
	end
end
addEvent("onWeaponKitTake", true)
addEventHandler("onWeaponKitTake", getRootElement(), weaponsKit)

function medicalKit()
local account = getPlayerAccount ( source )   
local accName = getAccountName ( account ) 
	if isObjectInACLGroup ("user."..accName, aclGetGroup ( "VIP" ) ) then 
		setElementData(source, "Medic Kit", 2)
		setElementData(source, "Morphine", 2)
		outputChatBox("#00ff00Medical VIP #ffffffitems.",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
	else 
		outputChatBox("#ff0000[Error] #ffffffYou don't have VIP!",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
	end
end
addEvent("onMedicalKitTake", true)
addEventHandler("onMedicalKitTake", getRootElement(), medicalKit)

Try.

cooldowns = {}
local cooldowntime = 60000 -- Cooldown for 1 minute / 60 seconds

function removeCooldown(thePlayer)
	if cooldowns[thePlayer] then
		cooldowns[thePlayer] = nil
	end
end

function weaponsKit()
	if cooldowns[source] then
		if isTimer(cooldowns[source]) then
			local remaining = getTimerDetails(cooldowns[source])
			outputChatBox("#00ff00Cooldown remaining: ".. remaining/1000 .." seconds.",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
			return
		end
	end
	cooldowns[source] = setTimer(removeCooldown, cooldowntime, 1, source)
	local account = getPlayerAccount ( source )   
	local accName = getAccountName ( account ) 
	if isObjectInACLGroup ("user."..accName, aclGetGroup ( "VIP" ) ) then 
		setElementData(source, "MAX_Slots", 200)
		setElementData(source, "M4", 1)
		outputChatBox("#00ff00Weapon VIP #ffffffitems.",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
	else
		outputChatBox("#ff0000[Error] #ffffffYou don't have VIP!",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
	end
end
addEvent("onWeaponKitTake", true)
addEventHandler("onWeaponKitTake", getRootElement(), weaponsKit)

function medicalKit()
	if cooldowns[source] then
		if isTimer(cooldowns[source]) then
			local remaining = getTimerDetails(cooldowns[source])
			outputChatBox("#00ff00Cooldown remaining: ".. remaining/1000 .." seconds.",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
			return
		end
	end
	cooldowns[source] = setTimer(removeCooldown, cooldowntime, 1, source)
	local account = getPlayerAccount ( source )   
	local accName = getAccountName ( account ) 
	if isObjectInACLGroup ("user."..accName, aclGetGroup ( "VIP" ) ) then 
		setElementData(source, "Medic Kit", 2)
		setElementData(source, "Morphine", 2)
		outputChatBox("#00ff00Medical VIP #ffffffitems.",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
	else 
		outputChatBox("#ff0000[Error] #ffffffYou don't have VIP!",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
	end
end
addEvent("onMedicalKitTake", true)
addEventHandler("onMedicalKitTake", getRootElement(), medicalKit)

@Emix Tickcount could work, but you can also just use the setTimer() func.

Are you looking for a global timer or one on a player basis? Here's two examples:

local timers = {}

function weaponsKit()
	if isTimer(timers[source]) then -- check table for player timer
		local remaining = math.ceil(getTimerDetails(timers[source])/1000)
		outputChatBox("Sorry, you can only take this item every 10 seconds! Please wait "..remaining.." more seconds")
	else
		local account = getPlayerAccount ( source )   
		local accName = getAccountName ( account ) 
		if isObjectInACLGroup ("user."..accName, aclGetGroup ( "VIP" ) ) then 
			setElementData(source, "MAX_Slots", 200)
			setElementData(source, "M4", 1)
			outputChatBox("#00ff00Weapon VIP #ffffffitems.",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
		else
			outputChatBox("#ff0000[Error] #ffffffYou don't have VIP!",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
		end
		
		timers[source] = setTimer(function() -- define timer here to table and remove it after 10 seconds
			timers[source] = nil
		end, 10000, 1) -- 10000 ms (10 secs)
	end
end
addEvent("onWeaponKitTake", true)
addEventHandler("onWeaponKitTake", getRootElement(), weaponsKit)

Global timer:

local timer;

function weaponsKit()
	if isTimer(timer) then -- check for timer
		local remaining = math.ceil(getTimerDetails(timers[source])/1000)
		outputChatBox("Sorry, you can only take this item every 10 seconds! Please wait "..remaining.." more seconds")
	else
		local account = getPlayerAccount ( source )   
		local accName = getAccountName ( account ) 
		if isObjectInACLGroup ("user."..accName, aclGetGroup ( "VIP" ) ) then 
			setElementData(source, "MAX_Slots", 200)
			setElementData(source, "M4", 1)
			outputChatBox("#00ff00Weapon VIP #ffffffitems.",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
		else
			outputChatBox("#ff0000[Error] #ffffffYou don't have VIP!",source, 255, 255, 255, true)
		end
		
		timer = setTimer(function() -- initiate timer and get rid of it after 10 secs
			timer = nil
		end, 10000, 1) -- 10000 ms (10 secs)
	end
end
addEvent("onWeaponKitTake", true)
addEventHandler("onWeaponKitTake", getRootElement(), weaponsKit)

Hope this helps.

 

EDIT: Oh my bad, didn't see your post @idarrr! Well.. you can never have too many examples Pick whichever one makes the most sense to you.

Thank you very mutch! Can you help me with one more thing?

How to fix this? I want make it look like - 5 hours 29 minutes 42 seconds not like this.

 

 

code:

 

local seconds = math.ceil(getTimerDetails(timers[source])/1000)
local minutes = math.ceil(getTimerDetails(timers[source])/60000)
local hours = math.ceil(getTimerDetails(timers[source])/3600000)
outputChatBox("Sorry, you can only take this item every 5 hours! Please wait "..hours.." Hours"..minutes.." Minutes"..seconds.." Seconds")

This may be what you're looking for

local secs = getTimerDetails(timers[source])/1000
local remaining = string.format("%.1d hours %.1d minutes and %.1d seconds", secs/(60*60), secs/60%60, secs%60)
