[Move Vehicle Door According To Cursor]

Hello!

      I created a very basic script of vehicle door control with cursor. When press "1", driver's door open/close according to the cursor move. When press "2" that event will remove.

 

Meta.xml

<meta>
	<script src="client.lua" type="client" />
</meta>

 

Client.lua

local dState = false

function moveDoor()

  local vehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer)
  
	if (getVehicleDoorOpenRatio(vehicle, 2) >= 1) then
		dState = "close"
	elseif (getVehicleDoorOpenRatio(vehicle, 2) <= 0) then
		dState = "open"
	end
  
	if (dState == "open") then
		setVehicleDoorOpenRatio(vehicle, 2, getVehicleDoorOpenRatio(vehicle, 2) + 0.01 )
		
	elseif (dState == "close") then
		setVehicleDoorOpenRatio(vehicle, 2, getVehicleDoorOpenRatio(vehicle, 2) - 0.01 )
	end
	
end


bindKey("1", "up",
function ()
	addEventHandler("onClientCursorMove", root, moveDoor)
end)

bindKey("2", "up",
function ()
	removeEventHandler("onClientCursorMove", root, moveDoor)
end)

 

 

I need your help with two problems.

 

Problem - 01

The door should move only if player move the cursor left and right on the screen. Not for moving up and down.

 

---

 

Problem - 02

Door movement direction (open/close) need to be depend on players view position.

Meaning, If player's camera at the front of the vehicle, then when player move the cursor to right, door will open.

If player's camera at the back of the vehicle, then when player move the cursor to right, door will close.

This will apply vice versa to left.

Appreciate any help.

Thank In Advance !!

 

[Can someone look over my script]

I noticed that in client code, you added the event "onClientElementDataChange" inside "onClientColShapeHit" event. so, each time when player enter the colshape new "onClientElementDataChange" event is created. This will cause the trigger server event each time +1.

[[HELP] WITH THE INFINITE MAKER DOWN]

I can suggest you to create col shapes near markers with "createColCuboid" function and trigger your function when player hit that col shape with "onClientColShapeHit" event instead of triggering that function when player hit marker. Don't remove markers so that players will know where to go.

[GetPedAnimation return incorrect results]

Hello everyone !

When I use following piece of code to set the animation and get what animation the ped is doing, I've noticed that 'getPedAnimation' function doesn't return the correct animation when 'setPedAnimation' function's loop argument set to false. When loop argument set to true, 'getPedAnimation' function return the correct block and animation.

I used IFP_Demo resource's parkour.ifp file.

Client Side :

local ifp = engineLoadIFP("parkour.ifp", "parkour")

setPedAnimation(localPlayer, "parkour", "HandPlant", -1, false) -- set false argument to true when testing

setTimer(
function ()
  local block, anim = getPedAnimation(localPlayer)
	outputDebugString("Block : "..block..", Anim : "..anim)
end, 1000, 1
)

 

When 'setPedAnimation' function's loop argument set to false,

Spoiler

INFO message has return the wrong block and animation.

 

When 'setPedAnimation' function's loop argument set to true,

Spoiler

INFO message has return the correct block and animation.

Your problem may resolve with guiSetInputMode function. set bind mode to "allow_binds" when click on your edit box.

Did you run that function on client side and command as for example /createEffect 3 ?? [ createEffect not createeffect , with capital E ? ]

[Return Left Playtime of an Online Sound Stream]

Hello dear !

          I'm trying to play some musics with the function 'playSound3D'. The sound URLs are provided to the function [ not files ]. So, that this musics are started to play according to the internet speed of the client. Some will start earlier than others.

          My problem is in stopping the sound. When current music ends, the next one should play. For that I need to know how long that the current sound will play. Therefore, how to return the left playtime of the sound?

[ped after reconnect wont follow player]

Hello @Burak5312 !

                   First, I thing it should better if you add following ped into a table giving unique variable as that ped created on server side. if boomer = your following ped, then if I command to spawn a follower, then 'boomer' refers to my follower. Not yours from then. so, it may get confused to the follower !! So, I suggest you to create a table and get the nick name / account name of the command user and store it in a table. Then under that account name variable, create the follower. [ These are told according to my opinion. ]

	end
end
dbFree(result)
end
setTimer(DeleteVIP, 6000000, 0)

In line 8 you had to define the 'accountName' variable. Got it ?

[setvip warning]

Can you please tell me, what happens every 1 minute when running this DeleteVIP function ?

If that peace of code run according to the timer, you can't add accountName as a handler function argument of DeleteVIP. You had to discover accountName variable before started running the line 8.

[Set movement style - function]

can you test below peace of code separately from your resource ? and tell what you think about it related to your code ? after command as /walk

function checkPlayerMovementStyle()
    setTimer(
	function ()
	    value = {}
	    value[1] = true
	    value[2] = false
	    setTimer(setPedControlState,50,2,getLocalPlayer(), "walk", value[1])
	    toggleControl("walk", value[2])
	    toggleControl("sprint", value[2])
	    toggleControl("jump", value[2])
	end,500,1)
end

[setvip warning]

First, I think you have missed some details on 'addCommandHandler' page. Go and read that page completely one more time.

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/AddCommandHandler

In server side, there are some parameters on handler function.

1. Player who command

2.The Command

3.Arguments [ from the command ]

*Your handler function does not configured correctly.

[Set movement style - function]

Seems this code is toggling  player's sprint and jump every 300 miliseconds. But when you toggle the control one time... it will last longer until you enable it. Is't it ?

[Map]

Yeah ! Press numberpad 1 key.

[setvip warning]

Try this out :

function SETVIP (source, command, accountName)
  local account1 = getAccountName(getPlayerAccount(source))
  local serial = serial
  local nick = nick
  local time = time
  local time2 = time2
  local VIP = vip
	local account = getAccount(accountName)
	if getAccountPlayer(account) then
	  local player = getAccountPlayer(account)
		givePlayerMoney(player, 500000)
		outputChatBox("VIP: " .. accountName, player, 255, 255, 255, true)	
	end
end
addCommandHandler("setvip", SETVIP)

It returns these:

Bad argument @ getElementPosition Expected element at argument 1, got string 462 (I changed the code a bit)

Bad argument @ outputChatBox Expected string at argument 1, got nil

Bad argument @ triggerClientEvent Expected element at argument 2, got string 462

According to the way I think, that errors looks not received from the function that I gave you. check that carefully

In 'addEventHandler' on line 24 [ or 25 :3 ] of that code, change argument 2 from 'resourceRoot' to 'getRootElement()'.

And try some edits like below to the function;

    if model then

        outputChatBox(model,player)

Hello !

I suggest you to download the default admin resource and replace it with current one if you done anything to resource.

And make sure to add your account name in Admin group of acl.xml [ <object name="user.account_name"></object>].

Then try it again.
