Check xPlayer.job.name

FiveM Resource Development & Modding Discussion

Hey guys, I’m working in a function for the RadialMenu, basically I want that when you press the button if your job name is “ambulance” you get the ambulance menu, if is “police” the police one …
So I have created a variable named “funzione”, when I try to check the job for then changing the variable I get xPlayer = nil

    local _source = source
    local xPlayer = ESX.GetPlayerFromId(_source)
    if xPlayer.job.Name == "ambulance" then
        local funzione = "esx_ambulancejob:openmobile"
    end
    if xPlayer.job.Name == "bennys" then
        local funzione = "bennysmenu"
    end
    if xPlayer.job.Name == "import" then
        local funzione = "importmenu"
    end
end)

And then in the sub menu

    ['general:lavoro'] = {
        title = "Menu Lavoro",
        icon = "#general-escort",
        functionName = funzione
    },

My question is:
Where can I define xPlayer to check the job of the player? And how?

Try this in client.lua

function setupSubItems()
    local PlayerData = ESX.GetPlayerData()

    if Config.JobInteractions[PlayerData.job.name] ~= nil and next(Config.JobInteractions[PlayerData.job.name]) ~= nil then
         Config.MenuItems[3].items = Config.JobInteractions[PlayerData.job.name]
    else 
        Config.MenuItems[3].items = {}
    end
end

in client.lua in your OpenRadial function, I mean set nui focus add

    setupSubItems()

and in Config.lua add

Config.JobInteractions = {
    ["mechanic"] = {
        {
            title = "Menu Lavoro",
            icon = "#general-escort",
            functionName = funzione
        },
    },
}

This code may not work with your RadialMenu. But its example how to do it.

Ok let’s say I changed it completely while looking at ur code.
Now it is

    ['general:lavoro'] = {
        title = "Menu Lavoro",
        icon = "#general-escort",
        functionName = "NR_JobHandler:controllo"
    },

So I created a script (client.lua):

ESX = nil TriggerEvent('esx:getSharedObject', function(obj) ESX = obj end)

RegisterNetEvent('NR_JobHandler:controllo')
AddEventHandler('NR_JobHandler:controllo', function(lavoro)
    local PlayerData = ESX.GetPlayerData()
    local lavoro = PlayerData.job.name 
	if lavoro == "ambulance" then
        xPlayer.triggerEvent("esx_ambulancejob:openmobile")
	end
end)

The problem now is that xPlayer is a nil value, how can I solve?

Well the problem here was that I did xPlayer.triggerEvent(“event”)
Instead of only TriggetEvent --(lol)
