hi guys

 

my problem all radar and all closhap when I am writing the command /show

i need only delete the hillarea and hillRadar for when turfcol = true

hillArea = { 
{1436.6826171875, -2940.1494140625, 13.546875, 500,500,500}, 
{1436.6826171875, -2640.1494140625, 13.546875, 500,500,500}, 
{1436.6826171875, -2340.1494140625, 13.546875, 500,500,500}, 
{1436.6826171875, -640.1494140625,  13.546875, 500,500,500} 
  
} 
hillRadar = { 
{1262.2802734375, -2769.48828125, 300, 300, 171, 175, 174, 80}, 
{1262.2802734375, -2469.48828125, 300, 300, 92, 46, 2, 80}, 
{2762.2802734375, -2169.48828125, 200, 300, 255, 0, 143, 80} 
  
} 
turfCol = nil 
hillRadars = nil 
  
function maketurf (thePlayer) 
    if turfcol == nil and hillRadars == nil then 
        for i,v2 in ipairs(hillArea) do 
            turfCol = createColCuboid(unpack(v2)) 
        end 
        for i,v1 in ipairs(hillRadar) do 
            hill = createRadarArea(unpack(v1)) 
        end 
            turfCol = true 
            hillRadars = true 
        else 
            local allturfs = getElementsByType("radararea") 
            local allcols = getElementsByType("colshape") 
        for i, v2 in ipairs(allturfs) do 
            destroyElement(v2) 
        end 
        for i, v1 in ipairs(allcols) do 
            destroyElement(v1) 
        end 
            turfCol = nil

    end 
end

So i ask: can you explain better? i did not understand what's the problem. Also indent the code to make it more readable: it's annoying reading an end followed by a instruction that is more at right, like if it was an if or a loop

Spoiler

hillArea = { 
    {1436.6826171875, -2940.1494140625, 13.546875, 500,500,500},

Still you don't expalin what the problem is. Also the declarement and assignment of  turfCol and  hill is useless. 

And with the following instruction you retrieve ALL the radarareas/colshapes, not only what you created with this script.

local allturfs = getElementsByType("radararea")

local allcols = getElementsByType("colshape")

Explain more what your problem is

[MR.S3D]

 

when you use turfCol

and create new with turfCol

and fist one was nil

 

example for your problem:

 

s3d = nil  -- variable
s3d = 'hello' -- variable
s3d = 'hi' -- variable
outputChatBox(s3d)
-- in chat   : hi
-- because the last one variable cancel all variables with same name...

You must use tables..

 

 

and if you need destroyElement in your this resource only

use:

 

local allturfs = getElementsByType("radararea",resourceRoot) 


local allcols = getElementsByType("colshape",resourceRoot)
