[Help] export working but not doing what it should

Shiroyo · 2019-08-19T16:33:24.766Z

Hello. I want to send the player into the Ped Clothing Menu as soon as he first join the server and select his gang. I made an export from the clothing resource and I put print to see if it opens.

Spawn script client.lua:

function spawnPlayer(selectedFaction)
    local playerPed = PlayerPedId()
    local chosenFaction
    local myId = PlayerId()
    local pid = GetPlayerFromServerId(id)
    local modelHash
    local randomSkin
    local randomSpawn
    if selectedFaction == 1 then
        randomSpawn = groveSpawns[math.random(#groveSpawns)]
        randomSkin = groveSkins[math.random(#groveSkins)]
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:setFaction', 'grove')
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:updateFaction', 'grove')
        chosenFaction = "Grove Street Families"
    elseif selectedFaction == 2 then
        randomSpawn = ballasSpawns[math.random(#ballasSpawns)]
        randomSkin = ballasSkins[math.random(#ballasSkins)]
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:setFaction', 'ballas')
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:updateFaction', 'ballas')
        chosenFaction = "Kilo Tray Ballas"
    elseif selectedFaction == 3 then
        randomSpawn = vagosSpawns[math.random(#vagosSpawns)]
        randomSkin = vagosSkins[math.random(#vagosSkins)]
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:setFaction', 'vagos')
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:updateFaction', 'vagos')
        chosenFaction = "Los Santos Vagos"
    elseif selectedFaction == 4 then
        randomSpawn = armenianSpawns[math.random(#armenianSpawns)]
        randomSkin = armenianSkins[math.random(#armenianSkins)]
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:setFaction', 'armenian')
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:updateFaction', 'armienian')
        chosenFaction = "Armenian Mob"
    elseif selectedFaction == 5 then
        randomSpawn = kkangpaeSpawns[math.random(#kkangpaeSpawns)]
        randomSkin = kkangpaeSkins[math.random(#kkangpaeSkins)]
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:setFaction', 'kkangpae')
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:updateFaction', 'kkangpae')
        chosenFaction = "Kkangpae"
    elseif selectedFaction == 6 then
        randomSpawn = policeSpawns[math.random(#policeSpawns)]
        randomSkin = policeSkins[math.random(#policeSkins)]
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:setFaction', 'police')
        TriggerServerEvent('spawnselect:updateFaction', 'police')
        chosenFaction = "Police Force"
    end
    selectFactionInfo = nil
    selectFactionInfo2 = nil
    while randomSpawn == nil do
        Citizen.Wait(100)
    end
    SetEntityCoords(playerPed, randomSpawn.x, randomSpawn.y, randomSpawn.z)
    RequestModel(randomSkin)
    while not HasModelLoaded(randomSkin) do
        Citizen.Wait(0)
    end
    modelHash = GetHashKey(randomSkin)
    RemoveAllPedWeapons(playerPed, true)
    SetPlayerModel(PlayerId(), modelHash)
    SetPedRandomComponentVariation(PlayerPedId(), false)
    if chosenFaction == "Police Force" then
        GiveWeaponToPed(PlayerPedId(), GetHashKey("WEAPON_NIGHTSTICK"), 1, false, false)
        GiveWeaponToPed(PlayerPedId(), GetHashKey("WEAPON_STUNGUN"), 1, false, false)
        GiveWeaponToPed(PlayerPedId(), GetHashKey("WEAPON_PISTOL"), 300, false, false)
    else
        GiveWeaponToPed(PlayerPedId(), GetHashKey("WEAPON_BAT"), 1, false, false)
        GiveWeaponToPed(PlayerPedId(), GetHashKey("WEAPON_PISTOL"), 300, false, false)
    end
    SetModelAsNoLongerNeeded(modelHash)
    SetEntityVisible(GetPlayerPed(-1), true)
    SetPlayerInvincible(PlayerId(), false)
    FreezeEntityPosition(GetPlayerPed(-1), false) 
    RenderScriptCams(false, false, 3, 1, 0)
    DestroyAllCams(true)
    isPlayerInMenu = false
    if GetDistanceBetweenCoords(GetEntityCoords(GetPlayerPed(myId)), GetEntityCoords(GetPlayerPed(pid)), true) < 19.999 then
    TriggerEvent('chat:addMessage', {
      template = '<div style="padding: 0.5vw; margin: 0.5vw; background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3); border-radius: 3px;"> You are now a ^3{0} ^7member!</div>',
      args = { chosenFaction }
      })
    end
    exports['clothing']:OpenClothingMenu()
    print("OpenClothingMenu() opening ...")
end

clothing script client.lua:

function OpenClothes()
    print("OpenClothes() P 2 opening ...")
    PlayerData = ESX.GetPlayerData()
    while PlayerData.job == nil do
        Citizen.Wait(200)
    end
    Menu.SetupMenu("clothing_main","Clothing")
    Menu.Switch(nil, "clothing_main")
    for k,v in pairs(menu_options) do
        Menu.addOption("clothing_main", function()
            if(Menu.Option(v.name))then
                 v.f(v.name,v.param)
            end
        end)
    end
end

Btw OpenClothes() function works good when I just enter it at the clothes shop.

Oh, and one more thing, but I don’t know if this is important. This menu uses NativeUI.

Seems fine to me, you call OpenClothingMenu() which then gets executed so does the print and then comes back to your orignal function and does the second print?

I made some mistake at my first post. I tried using exports OpenClothes() and OpenClothing() which just returns OpenClothes() function. Nothing from this works. It prints successfully but no menu appears. So ignore the fact I said it prints wrong in the console.

edit: Yeah I just checked once again. print from OpenClothes() function prints correcly but NativeUI menu still doesn’t open

Okay I think I got it working. I had another thing in one of my function where it was asking for a job and the job was always nil. Thanks for the help anyway
