Help notification when enter Boat

FiveM Resource Development & Modding Discussion

Hi, this is my first try to make a script on my own, Im trying to make a script that tells you a notification when you enter a BOAT class vehicle, saying “Press ‘.’ to drop anchor”

But it loops and i cant figure it out how to make it not loop xD

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
    while true do
           Citizen.Wait(0)
           local playerPed = GetPlayerPed(-1)
           local vehicle = GetVehiclePedIsIn(playerPed, false)
           local vehicleClass = GetVehicleClass(vehicle)
  
           if vehicleClass == 14 then -- class #14 boats
            --ESX.ShowNotification("~b~Bajate y presiona ~o~[ . ] ~b~ para ~y~ANCLAR~b~ el bote...")
			
			exports.notif:SendNotification({
				text = "~b~Bajate y presiona ~o~[ . ] ~b~ para ~y~ANCLAR~b~ el bote...",
				type = 'bottomLeft',
				timeout = 5000,
			}) 
           end
    end
end)

Thanks in advance!

Hey :slight_smile:
I’m not sure it’s the most efficient way to do that, but I don’t have any alternative that comes to mind right now (I checked ESX and the gameEvents to see if an event of the sort existed but apparently not).
I made the change you were looking for though :

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
    while true do
	
           Citizen.Wait(0)
           
		   local playerPed = PlayerPedId()
           local vehicle = GetVehiclePedIsEntering(playerPed)
		   
		   if(vehicle ~= nil and vehicle > 0) then
		   
			   local vehicleClass = GetVehicleClass(vehicle)
	  
			   if vehicleClass == 14 then -- class #14 boats
					exports.notif:SendNotification({
						text = "~b~Bajate y presiona ~o~[ . ] ~b~ para ~y~ANCLAR~b~ el bote...",
						type = 'bottomLeft',
						timeout = 5000,
					}) 
                    Citizen.Wait(2500)
			   end
			   
			end
		   
    end
end)

Should do the trick for now (check’s only when the player enters the vehicle, so it won’t loop the notification when he’s inside).

Hey!
There is a game event that gets fired when a player enters a vehicle. Here is an example of how you could use it:

local function DisplayAnchorHelpText()
    local playerPed = PlayerPedId()
    local vehicle = GetVehiclePedIsIn(playerPed, false)
    if vehicle ~= nil and vehicle ~= 0 then
        local vehicleClass = GetVehicleClass(vehicle)
        if vehicleClass == 14 then -- class #14 boats
            exports.notif:SendNotification({
                text = "~b~Bajate y presiona ~o~[ . ] ~b~ para ~y~ANCLAR~b~ el bote...",
                type = 'bottomLeft',
                timeout = 5000,
            })
        end
    end
end

AddEventHandler('gameEventTriggered', function(event, args)
    if event == "CEventNetworkPlayerEnteredVehicle" then
        if args[1] == PlayerId() then
            DisplayAnchorHelpText()
        end
    end
end)

Thank you guys for your help!, I have it working like a charm!. Also i’ve added one for each class to say “press M to fasten your seatbelt” (excluding bikes, planes, helis, etc). Its kind of rought and repetitive, Sure you can do better. but hey, it works! xD. Thank you again!!!

You could tweek the code to implement only one function to which you’ll pass the ‘vehicleClass’ as an argument, like that :

AddEventHandler('gameEventTriggered', function(event, args)
    if event == "CEventNetworkPlayerEnteredVehicle" then
        if args[1] == PlayerId() then
		
		    local playerPed = PlayerPedId()
			local vehicle = GetVehiclePedIsIn(playerPed, false)
			local vehicleClass = GetVehicleClass(vehicle)
			if vehicle ~= nil and vehicle ~= 0 then
				DisplayVehicleHelpText(vehicleClass)
			end
			
        end
    end
end)

local function DisplayVehicleHelpText(vehicleClass)

        if (vehicleClass == 14) then --If the Vehicle is a boat (display anchor message)
            exports.notif:SendNotification({
                text = "~b~Bajate y presiona ~o~[ . ] ~b~ para ~y~ANCLAR~b~ el bote...",
                type = 'bottomLeft',
                timeout = 5000,
            })
        elseif (vehicleClass == 13 or vehicleClass == 14 or vehicleClass == 15 or vehicleClass == 16 or vehicleClass == 21) then
			--Else if the vehicle is cycle, plane, helicopter etc.. (display nothing)
			return
		else --Else is the vehicle is a car from the known categories (display belt message)
			exports.notif:SendNotification({
                text = "~o~Presiona ~y~[ M ]~o~ para ponerte el cinturón",
                type = 'centerRight',
                timeout = 5000,
            })
		end

Awesome!! I couldn’t figure out how to represent the ones i was going to exclude!, thank you for opening my eyes!

As you can see, im not a regular programmer,just playing with lua and learning :D.

Again, thank you. If you dont have any problems, can I upload it as a Release? since there’s no other script and it might be useful for other implementations. Thank you!

No prob :wink:
Yeah sure you can upload it if you want (I don’t think MadsL won’t have an issue with you uploading it either) :slight_smile:
