Is there/will there be a way to change the sprite used to display a player? For my British roleplay community, it’d be nice to change the sprite to a green spot when they’re available, but then a red one when they’ve pressed their emergency button - and so on for the other states.

Great work though, nice to see this!

Yes, you can change/add images to the icons folder on the interface (images/icons/) and add them to the markers located in js/src/markers.js (MarkerTypes) for use (just make sure they have a unique “id”, the number).

Then, you can use this by changing the player’s “icon” to the number set in markers.js. For an example on changing the player’s sprite have a look at client/client.lua (line 63 and below).

How did you go about breaking the map into tiny segments as you did? I have a modified map image that has streets labeled and would like to put it in the place of the primary but being as it is a single image, I’m wondering if it would even work?

Havoc:

{
sprite = Number (required) – The sprite used when creating the blip
x = Float (required) – X coordinate of the blip
y = Float (required) – Y coordinate of the blip
z = Float (required) – Z coordinate of the blip
name = String (optional) -- Name to show on the interface (defaults to the name of the blip e.g. "Drugs")
description = String (optional) -- Description of the blip shown on the interface
}

How do I add my own blips to the map? The blips generate command does not seem to work…

Well, it generates them to blips.json but this is it:

Modo:

Well, it generates them to blips.json but this is it:

That is correct. There’s no way for me to get the name of the blips in game (well, none that I’ve found) so, the blips generate command only gets the coordinates of the blip. If you want to add a blip to the json file yourself,

Stop the resource
Figure out what sprite you want to use
Add the sprite number to the root object in the json file if it doesn’t already exist
Add the blip to the array you just created.

For example, if you wanted to add another blip using the sprite ID of one you would add the blip to the “1” array, like so:

  "1":[{
      "z":34.96,
      "y":-446.35,
      "x":-1458.61
    },{
      "z":31.11,
      "y":-728.61,
      "x":63.06
    },{
      "z": 0.00,
      "y": 0.00,
      "x": 0.00,
      "name" : "Optional Name",
      "description" : "Optional Description"
    }],

Modo · 2017-10-24T12:55:26.649Z

Are the ones above not already in blip arrays though? Example:

 "40":[{
      "z":147.7,
      "y":440.66,
      "x":346.72
    },

Havoc · 2017-10-24T12:58:27.166Z

Modo:

“40”:[{
“z”:147.7,
“y”:440.66,
“x”:346.72
},

Pretty much. The thing is, the end element doesn’t have to have the comma and has to have a closing square bracket so, your example would be:

 "40":[{
      "z":147.7,
      "y":440.66,
      "x":346.72
    }] -- If this is the final array, don't put a comma here otherwise, make sure there is one here

Ok, so the latest version (2.1.8) should fix both of these issues. Thanks for pointing it out

Sam_Ireland · 2017-10-24T18:56:59.786Z

Hey, I’m having the same issue as modo, and updating to 2.1.8 seems to have made no difference.

Hawk_bs · 2017-10-25T00:12:07.255Z

First of all, thanks for the release! A very nice feature to have, both for admins, but also for police/ems dispatchers.

The only real problem We got with the map though, is that it completely locks up blips on the map, both players and normal map-blips, and the map becomes unresponsive. - Debug shows nothing.

BlackWidow · 2017-10-26T18:53:53.003Z

Havoc:

But… But what about the blips? How do I get them working?

Well, young Jimmy boy. There’s a command for that! While in-game admins can run the command blips generate to generate a fresh blip file. This will take all the blips shown on the map and put them into the “blip_file”. Next time the UI requests the blips (refresh the page) you should see the blips in all their glory!

Sorry if i’m being silly here but whats the command?

Havoc · 2017-10-26T19:02:50.605Z

“blips generate” just like I said in the post

BlackWidow · 2017-10-26T19:13:28.102Z

Havoc:

Have you set add_principal identifier.ip:127.0.0.1 group.admin to your identifier?

I’m getting access denied for command blips.

How do i do they above im confused right now

sadboilogan · 2017-10-26T19:14:31.207Z

Make sure to add yourself as an admin in the server.cfg make sure you change it to your ip, or steam, or liscense

BlackWidow · 2017-10-26T19:15:49.941Z

Thank you

I wasn’t sure if it was something that i need to create top man!
