This script was created as a basic proof of concept in 2017. Please stop replying to it.
Created a simple script to handle joining/leaving a server and death messages. It actually says who killed who. Wrote this in about an hour so it’s probably sloppy.
Client Script
RegisterNetEvent('showNotification')
AddEventHandler('showNotification', function(text)
ShowNotification(text)
end)
function ShowNotification(text)
SetNotificationTextEntry("STRING")
AddTextComponentString(text)
DrawNotification(0,1)
end
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
-- main loop thing
alreadyDead = false
while true do
Citizen.Wait(50)
local playerPed = GetPlayerPed(-1)
if IsEntityDead(playerPed) and not alreadyDead then
killer = GetPedKiller(playerPed)
killername = false
for id = 0, 64 do
if killer == GetPlayerPed(id) then
killername = GetPlayerName(id)
end
end
if killer == playerPed then
TriggerServerEvent('playerDied',0,0)
elseif killername then
TriggerServerEvent('playerDied',killername,1)
else
TriggerServerEvent('playerDied',0,2)
end
alreadyDead = true
end
if not IsEntityDead(playerPed) then
alreadyDead = false
end
end
end)
Server Script
AddEventHandler('playerConnecting', function()
TriggerClientEvent('showNotification', -1,"~g~".. GetPlayerName(source).."~w~ joined.")
end)
AddEventHandler('playerDropped', function()
TriggerClientEvent('showNotification', -1,"~r~".. GetPlayerName(source).."~w~ left.")
end)
RegisterServerEvent('playerDied')
AddEventHandler('playerDied',function(killer,reason)
if killer == "**Invalid**" then --Can't figure out what's generating invalid, it's late. If you figure it out, let me know. I just handle it as a string for now.
reason = 2
end
if reason == 0 then
TriggerClientEvent('showNotification', -1,"~o~".. GetPlayerName(source).."~w~ committed suicide. ")
elseif reason == 1 then
TriggerClientEvent('showNotification', -1,"~o~".. killer .. "~w~ killed ~o~"..GetPlayerName(source).."~w~.")
else
TriggerClientEvent('showNotification', -1,"~o~".. GetPlayerName(source).."~w~ died.")
end
end)
