/text <ID> help needed

[j_molenaar]

First of all i wish u guys a really really great day around here!

I really like to know how i can script lets say something like /weapon or something.
What i mean is how can i make a command that uses /text and then a identifier after it.
Im not new at scripting at all, but lua is kinda new to me.

I hope you guys help me out soon.

I checked some resources already, but the main thing is they all are server sided scripted. is there a way to got it only client sided?

anyway thanks for the help man! i really appreciate it!

If you want to use the chat (something like /command) you have to create a serversided script. But you can Trigger a client event with it.

You could check my resource for example. There you will see what I mean:

[Release] Engine ON/OFF Toggle

Hey guys, this time it is just a really simple Engine Toggle. You can configure it to use a key or a command, default is using a command. —> Type /engine to turn the engine ON or OFF or, if you set UseKey to true in the config.lua —> Press the INPUT_REPLAY_SCREENSHOT button (Default: U) to turn the engine ON or OFF There is also the option, that the engine turns ON automatically after entering the vehicle. Set OnAtEnter to true to use this function. The engine keeps running, when you leav…

Thanks haha thats more what i need!
Now i understand the way of scripting between client side and server side.
But is there a way like to make the command with use of an player id or something?

Thanks for your’e help man!

[Flatracer]

yeah it is

I try to make a little example

Message in this example:
/weapon 2

-- SERVERSIDED

AddEventHandler('chatMessage', function(source, n, msg)
	local Message = string.lower(msg)
	local MessageParts = stringsplit(Message, " ") --The Seperator Is A Blank Space 
	if (MessageParts[1] == "/weapon") then
		TriggerClientEvent('Weapon', source, MessageParts[2]) --I added the second Argument, the **2** from the message
		CancelEvent()
	end
end)

function stringsplit(inputstr, sep)
	if sep == nil then
			sep = "%s"
	end
	local t={} ; i=1
	for str in string.gmatch(inputstr, "([^"..sep.."]+)") do
			t[i] = str
			i = i + 1
	end
	return t
end

-- CLIENTSIDED
-- Register a network event
RegisterNetEvent('Weapon')

AddEventHandler('Weapon', function(number) --I also added the argument here
	--do stuff here with the arguments, for example outputting it
	drawNotification(tostring(number))
end)

function drawNotification(text) --Just Don't Edit!
	SetNotificationTextEntry("STRING")
	AddTextComponentString(text)
	DrawNotification(false, false)
end
