Setting Money

[Mann56]

Hey guys, i was working on a performance modshop where i encountered an issue when i try to get money of the item

Here for example , i have a vehicle with mass 800 kg, i then set the mass value to 801, then it outputs 20$ in money, which is perfect but when i type 802 after typing 801, instead of showing 40$ it shows 80$(it does 20$ (previous money) + 20 +40 ) and i dont know why it happens...

Any help?

    local mass_label = guiCreateLabel(sx*50,sy*150,sx*400,sy*25,"Mass",false,performanceWindow) 
    local mass_button = guiCreateButton(sx*300,sy*150,sx*100,sy*25,car_handling["mass"],false,performanceWindow) 
    local massprice_label = guiCreateLabel(sx*430,sy*150,sx*100,sy*25,"20$ / 1 kg",false,performanceWindow) 
    addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",mass_button,function(button,state) 
        if button == "left" and state == "up" then 
            guiSetVisible(mass_button,false) 
            local mass_edit = guiCreateEdit(sx*300,sy*150,sx*100,sy*25,car_handling["mass"],false,performanceWindow) 
            addEventHandler("onClientKey",root,function(button,release) 
                if button == "enter" and tostring(release) == "false" then 
                    mass_money = 0 
                    guiSetVisible(mass_edit,false) 
                    guiSetVisible(mass_button,true) 
                    local mass_value = guiGetText(mass_edit) 
                    guiSetText(mass_button,mass_value) 
                    mass_money = (mass_value - car_handling["mass"])*20 
                    if mass_money < 0 then 
                        mass_money = 0 - mass_money 
                    end 
                    outputChatBox(mass_money) 
                    moneyToTake = mass_money + moneyToTake 
                    guiSetText(checkoutMoney_label,moneyToTake) 
                end 
            end) 
        end 
    end)

Bump.

You could have it check if there was any previous money, and if so set that to 0

I tried that but did not work.... I've already set mass_money to 0 in the function starting so it'd every time start with a zero value still it's not working.

I tried many times but still is not working..... This time, i tried like suppose my car's mass is X kg, i typed X + 3 kg and it showed 60 , thats correct but just after it, i typed X + @ and it showed $120 instead of $ 40 ( dunno why but it does 20 + 60 + 40, using the outputChatBox, i have used, i could detect this)

Any help?

Keep track of how many parts you buy 'With lua' then have it mulitply that by the cost then subtract that, then multiply the new value by the cost.
