Hello, could you help me? I am creating a punishment panel, but I am missing a set timer to kill punished players and return to normal. Could you help me?

Hi there, what are you looking at?

Ah this,

I have uploaded V1.0.2 of the draw distance resource. This resource helps with displaying objects that are normally streamed out. Your maps (even if you are not a mapper) will become a lot more beautiful!

Enjoy the resource as well as your well deserved WEEKEND!!!!

MTA-Communication-Enchantment

It is finally far enough in development to share this with you. I made an announcement a few days ago about solving some struggles, that people have with communicating between the server and the client. Today is the day that it isn't just rumour, but for you to use.

Before I am going to write a topic for it, I prefer to solve any unknown issues first. That is where you guys might come in!

Just an example:(1)

Passing arguments like you used to@

--CLIENT
callServer("passingArguments", "arg1", "arg2", "arg3")

-- SERVER
function passingArguments (arg1, arg2, arg3)
	outputChatBox(arg1 .. " " .. arg2 .. " " .. arg3, client)
end

Just an example:(2)

Calling back!

-- CLIENT
callServer(
  	"calculation", 
	50,
	100,
	function (value)
		outputChatBox("Value: " .. value)			  
	end
)

-- SERVER
function calculation (value1, value2)

	return value1 + value2
end

Just an example:(3)

Calling before a client has loaded his scripts!

--SERVER
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, 
function ()
	
	callClientAwait(source, "testCallClientAwait")
	
end)

-- CLIENT
function testCallClientAwait ()
	outputChatBox("Yes this works!")
end

Using one addEventHandler on a group of elements?

Answer:

local group = createElement("groupMyCutePeds") -- Create a custom element and save it in to the variable <group>.


-- Create 3 peds.
local ped1 = createPed(120, 5540.6654, 1020.55122, 1240.545)
local ped2 = createPed(120, 5541.6654, 1021.55122, 1240.545)
local ped3 = createPed(120, 5542.6654, 1022.55122, 1240.545)

-- Set the parent of the 3 peds.
setElementParent(ped1, group)
setElementParent(ped2, group)
setElementParent(ped3, group)


-- Add an addEventHandler and use the <group> as <attachedTo> element.
addEventHandler("onPedWasted", group, -- "onPedWasted" = serverside. "onClientPedWasted" = clientside.
function ()
    outputChatBox("One of my cute peds just died. ;'( No exceptions!")
end)

(untested muhahaha :D)

MTA is like a drug, it's hard to exit from it. 

I just made a server, here's the ip: 137.74.43.124:22003 I know you probably like bigger servers but can U give mines a chance? Thanks in advance 

Welcome to my room.
