[Help] Firing weapon

[ForLaXPy]

Well I recently made a new script that gonna attach some weapon to a specific and i bounded this function to key and evrything was going fine the weapons ae attached to the car and its firing and alls good but the issue is when i try to shoot another player car or i try to damage a player , I cannot do well i think because that function is only called for the client when he press  the bind and i was looking arround for something to let that fire dmg the others but i cant find in mta client function wiki that's why I'm seeking for help here 

 

local replacementGunKey = "vehicle_fire" 


function addt()
  bindKey ( replacementGunKey, "both", fireHydraGuns ) 
 end
addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", root, addt)
  

function fireHydraGuns ( key, keyState )
  if ( keyState == "down" ) then
  	if ( key == replacementGunKey ) and hydraGuns == true then
	toggleControl ( replacementGunKey, false )
    setWeaponState(hydraGunL, "firing")
    setWeaponState(hydraGunR, "firing")
	fireWeapon(hydraGunL)
	fireWeapon(hydraGunR)
    setWeaponProperty(hydraGunL, "fire_rotation", 10, 4, 0)
    setWeaponProperty(hydraGunR, "fire_rotation", 10, 4, 0)
	end
  end
  
  if ( keyState == "up" ) then
  	if ( key == replacementGunKey ) or hydraGuns == false then
    setWeaponState(hydraGunL, "ready")
    setWeaponState(hydraGunR, "ready")
	toggleControl ( replacementGunKey, true )
	end
  end 
   end

Anyone ? i really need to fix this

[IIYAMA]

• Is the weapon not firing?
• Or is the weapon not doing damage?

 

It is true that weapons stopped doing damage at a given moment. (not sure what the reason behind this is)

 

You can fix that problem with:

the Car is shooting Fine but there is no dmg for vehicles or players I tryed to Add this function using your event and still nothing

 

  
function DamageToPlayersFromCustomWeapons(target)
    if target == localPlayer then
	  setElementHealth ( target, -5 )
	  elseif isElement( target ) and getElementType( target ) == "vehicle" then
	  setElementHealth ( target, -10 )
    end
end
addEventHandler("onClientWeaponFire", root, DamageToPlayersFromCustomWeapons)

 

[IIYAMA]

function DamageToPlayersFromCustomWeapons(hitElement)
	iprint("onClientWeaponFire")
	if hitElement then
		iprint("hitElement exist")
		if hitElement == localPlayer then 
			setElementHealth(hitElement, math.max(getElementHealth(hitElement) - 5, 0))
			iprint("hit localPlayer")
		elseif getElementType( hitElement ) == "vehicle" then
			setElementHealth(hitElement, math.max(getElementHealth(hitElement) - 10, 0))
			iprint("hit vehicle")
		end
   	end
end
addEventHandler("onClientWeaponFire", root, DamageToPlayersFromCustomWeapons)

 

Try this and show the debug results.

[ForLaXPy]

Well @IIYAMA  I tried it and it works for vehicle that in the debug prints :

INFO: "onClientWeaponFire"

INFO: "hitElement exist"

INFO: "hit vehicle"

But when i tested it with a player I found this

INFO: "onClientWeaponFire"

INFO: "hitElement exist" 

and nothing about hit localplayer also no dmg for them

fix

[IIYAMA]

If the localPlayer gets hit, other players will not see: "hit localPlayer" (only the localPlayer will see that message if it is actually working)

 

Replace line 4 with this:

iprint("hitElement exist, element type of the hitElement =", getElementType(hitElement),", the userdata of the hitElement =", hitElement, ", the userdata of the localPlayer =", localPlayer)

To see what is going.
