AR/مقدمه في البرمجه

السكربتات جزء أساسي في تشغيل MTA فتستطيع بإستخدامهم إنشاء تطبيقات لتحسين اللعب ، تختلف أنواع السكربتات فمنها خريطة أو وضع للعب " freeroam , race , deathmatch " وغيرها ..

برمجة السكربتات تعتمد على لغة البرمجة (Lua) [www.lua.org] . لغة البرمجة تعتمد إعتماداً كلياً على اللغة الإنجليزية , فيجب أن تكون لديك خلفية في اللغة الإنجليزية قبل المتابعة. لبرمجة سكربت ما تحتاج لمحرر .. ويفضل إستخدام محرر إحترافي لكي يسهل عليك البرمجة مثل :

Notepad++ [1]
Lua Edit LuaEdit

لكن يفضل إستخدام برنامج MTASE فهو يسهل عملية إنشاء السكربتات وبرمجتها :

MTA Script Editor.

إنشاء سكربت

سوف نتعلم كيف نقوم بإنشاء سكربت يدخل اللاعب إلى اللعبة .. خطوة بحطوة

أين مسار كل البرامج النصية (السكريبتات أو المودات)؟

الان نتعرف على مجلد المودات أو السكربتات. اذهب إلى مجلد Multi Theft Auto واتبع المسار التالي:

/Your MTA Server/mods/deathmatch/resources/

سترى الكثير من الملفات. ربما ترى مجلدات صيغتها .zip أو مجلد عادي , وجميعها يقبله الـ MTA .. ولإنشاء المودات الخاصة بك: قم بعمل مجلد جديد واجعل اسمه كما تريد فمثلاً قم بتسميته "myserver" وهو الذي سنستخدمه بالبرنامج التعليمي والان يجب أن يكون مسار المجلد الذي قمت بعمله هذا:

/Your MTA Server/mods/deathmatch/resources/myserver/

myserver: اسم المجلد الذي قمت بتسميته

تعريف السكربت (إضافة ملف meta.xml)

حتى يستطيع السيرفر من معرفة المودات, يجب علينا إنشاء ملف meta.xml " ويكون بداخل مجلد السكربت الذي قمنا بإنشائه وهو "myserver" ولإنشاء ملف meta.xml : أفتح ملف نصي جديد وقم بتسميته meta.xml وافتحه باستخدام المفكرة =) ولا تنسى ان يكون بداخل مجلد السكربت .

أدخل الكود التالي في ملف meta.xml:

<meta>
     <info author="إسمك" type="gamemode" name="إسم السكربت" description="وصف السكربت" />
     <script src="script.lua" />
</meta>

هنا يتم تعريف أجزاء السكربت فمثلاً :

<info ..>

تضع فيه بيانات السكربت .. مثل الإسم والنوع والوصف

type="gamemode"

تعني أن نوع السكربت هو مود لعب وتوجد أنواع عديدة مثل :

- gamemode
- map
- script

إنشاء ملف السكربت Lua

قمنا بوضع هذا السطر في :

meta.xml

الآن نقوم بإنشاء ملف نصي بنفس الإسم

- script.lua

بإستخدام برنامج التحرير لديك .. نقوم بإنشاء الكود

function joinHandler() -- الوظيفة .. وبعدها نقوم بكتابة الإسم
	local x = 1959.55 -- تعريف x
	local y = -1714.46 -- تعريف y
	local z = 10 -- تعريف z
	spawnPlayer(source, x, y, z) -- نقوم بإستخدام هذه الوظيفة لإنتاج اللاعب ونقوم بتحديد اللاعب وهو المصدر : source
	fadeCamera(source, true) -- نقوم بعمل fade للكاميرا
	setCameraTarget(source, source) -- نجعل هدف الكاميرا هو اللاعب 
	outputChatBox("مرحباً بك في السيرفر", source) -- نقوم بإخراج نص في الدردشة
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), joinHandler) -- نقوم بإضافة المعالج حيث سيتم تشغيله بعد الحدث المحدد وهو عند دخول اللا

وصف وشرح الكود اعلاه : سيقوم السكربت بوضع اللاعب في الاحداثيات (x,y,z) المحدده اعلاه, عند دخوله الى السيرفر لاحظ انه يجب استخدام وظيفة [ fadeCamera ] ستكون الشاشة سوداء وأيضاً يجب تعيين الكاميرا ( setTargetCamera ) ..

نرى أن source هو المصدر وهو اللاعب الذي يقوم بالدخول

أيضاً لو رأينا في المعالج

addEventHandler - إضافة معالج للحدث

نرى 3 أشياء

onPlayerJoin - عند دخول اللاعب

وهو الحدث .. حيث يحدد متى يتم تشغيل المعالج - في هذه الحالة عند دخول اللاعب

getRootElement() - جلب العنصر الحالي

هذا يقوم بتعيين العنصر الذي يقوم بتشغيل الحدث

joinHandler

وهو إسم الوظيفة التي قمنا بصناعتها

يمكنك التوسع أكثر في : addEventHandler

تشغيل السكربت

بعد أن تقوم بحفظ أجزاء السكربت في ملف واحد ويمكن حفظه في الملفات التالية :

مجلد
أرشيف .zip

ونقوم بنسخه إلى مجلد السكربتات داخل سيرفرك ونقوم بتشغيله بالطريقة العادية.

الآن إنتهينا من صنع السكربت .. بعد هذا سنقوم بصنع سكربت مع أمر

command

يمكنك المتابعة أو الذهاب إلى دورة صناعة النوافذ

Introduction to Scripting GUI

صناعة أمر بسيط

لنعد الآن إلى ملف

script.lua

ونقوم بتعديله قليلاً لإنشاء أمر بسيط يقوم بإنشاء سيارة بجانب اللاعب

-- في البداية نقوم بكتب وظيفة إنشاء السيارة
function createVehicleForPlayer(thePlayer, command, vehicleModel)
   -- هنا نقوم بكتابة وظيفة إنشاء السيارة كـ
   -- createVehicle
end

-- نقوم بإضافة الأمر
addCommandHandler("createvehicle", createVehicleForPlayer)

ملاحظة: يمكنك الضغط على الوظائف والتعمق فيها بداخل الويكي.

الوظيفة

الوظيفة هي شيء يسمى

function

الوظيفة هي الشيء التي يتكون عليها الحدث

يمكنك ان تسمي الوظيفة كما شئت ويمكنك أيضاً عدم وضع اسم للوظيفة

مثال لـ وظيفة لها إسم

function arabs( ) -- الوظيفة
    outputChatBox("مرحباً بك") --s  ستلاحظ بـ أن كلمة " مرحباً بك " ظهرت في الشات عند دخول الاعب 
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, arabs) -- .الحدث مع اسم الوظيفة
-- root = getRootElement()

مثال لـ وظيفة ليس لها إسم

addEventHandler("onPlayerWasted", root,
function(_,killer)
    outputChatBox( killer .. " من قبل" .. getPlayerName(source) .. " لقد قُتل الاعب" )
end)

كما تلاحظ ووضع قوس قريباً من

end)

هذا القوس يكمل القوس الآخر كما نلاحظ في الحدث

addEventHandler(

الحدث

الحدث هو شيء يسمى

event

الحدث هو الذي يتكون على بناء الوظيفة فـ اذا رجعنا الى الامثلة التي في الاعلى سوف نرى عدة احداث ومنها

onPlayerWasted

الحدث ببساطة يحدد متى سوف تحدث او كيف سوف تحدث الوظائف التي ادخلتها

onPlayerWasted

عند موت الاعب

مثال للحدث

function onJoin()
    x, y, z = getElementPosition(source) -- s يآتي بمكان الاعب x, y, z
	    local theVehicle = createVehicle(445, x, y, z) -- s السيارة التي سـ تصنع بمكان الاعب الذي تم تحديده مسبقاً
		    warpPedIntoVehicle(source, theVehicle) -- s يجعل الاعب داخل السيارة
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, onJoin) -- s الحدث
-- root = getRootElement()

هذه الوظيفة مع هذا الحدث سوف يعطون الاعب سيارة عند دخوله السيرفر

ملاحظة الحدث ليس دائم على الوظيفة فـ أيصاً يمكنك تكوين هذه الوظيفة على حدث آخر

مثال

function onJoin()
    x, y, z = getElementPosition(source)
	    local theVehicle = createVehicle(445, x, y, z)
		    warpPedIntoVehicle(source, theVehicle)
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin", root, onJoin)

هذا سوف يعطي الاعب سيارة لاكن ليس عند دخوله السيرفر , إنما عند دخوله حسابه

About command handlers

The first argument of addCommandHandler is the name of the command the player will be able to enter, the second argument is the function this will call, in this case createVehicleForPlayer.

If you have already experience in scripting, you will know that you call a function like this:

functionName(argument1, argument2, argument3, ..)

functionName(thePlayer, commandName, argument3, ..)

If we have a closer look on the lower example above, we can see argument1 is thePlayer and argument2 the commandName. thePlayer is simply the one who typed the command, so whatever you call it, the variable will contain the player who activated the command. commandName is simply the command they typed. So if they typed "/greet", this argument will contain "greet". Argument 3 is something extra the player typed, you'll learn it a little bit further in the tutorial. Never forget that the first 2 arguments are standard arguments, but you can name them to anything you want.

We called the addCommandHandler function this way already and since createVehicleForPlayer is a function too, it can be called that way as well. But we are using a command handler for that, which calls it in a similiar manner, internally.

For example: Someone types "createvehicle 468" ingame in the console to spawn a Sanchez, the command handler calls the createVehicleForPlayer function, as if we would have this line of code in the script:

createVehicleForPlayer(thePlayer,"createvehicle","468") -- thePlayer is the player element of the player who entered the command

As we can see, it provides several parameters: the player who called the command, the command he entered and whatever text he had after that, in this case "468" as vehicle id for the Sanchez. The first two parameters are the same with all command handlers, which you can read on the addEventHandler page. For this fact, you always have to define at least those two parameters to use any after that (for example to process text that was entered after the command, like in our example the vehicle model id).

Note: You have to add the command handler AFTER you defined the handler function, else it can't find it. The order of execution matters.

Writing the function

In order to fill the function we created, we need to think about what we have to do:

Get the players position, so we know where to spawn the vehicle (we want it to appear right beside the player)
Calculate the position we want to spawn the vehicle at (we don't want it to appear in the player)
Spawn the vehicle
Check if it has been spawned successfully, or output a message

In order to achieve our goals, we have to use several functions. To find function we need to use, we should visit the Server Functions List. First we need a function to get the players position. Since players are Elements, we first jump to the Element functions where we find the getElementPosition function. By clicking on the function name in the list, you get to the function description. There we can see the syntax, what it returns and usually an example. The syntax shows us what arguments we can or have to submit.

For getElementPosition, the syntax is:

float, float, float getElementPosition ( element theElement )

The three float in front of the function name are the return type. In this case it means the function returns three floating point numbers. (x, y and z) Within the parentheses, you can see what arguments you have to submit. In this case only the element whose position you want to get, which is the player in our example.

function createVehicleForPlayer(thePlayer, command, vehicleModel)
	-- get the position and put it in the x,y,z variables
	-- (local means, the variables only exist in the current scope, in this case, the function)
	local x,y,z = getElementPosition(thePlayer)
end

Next we want to ensure that the vehicle won't spawn directly in the player, so we add a few units to the x variable, which will make it spawn east from the player.

function createVehicleForPlayer(thePlayer, command, vehicleModel)
	local x,y,z = getElementPosition(thePlayer) -- get the position of the player
	x = x + 5 -- add 5 units to the x position
end

Now we need another function, one to spawn a vehicle. We once again search for it on the Server Functions List, this time - since we are talking about vehicles - in the Vehicle functions section, where we will choose createVehicle. In this function's syntax, we only have one return type (which is more common), a vehicle element that points to the vehicle we just created. Also, we see that some arguments are enclosed within [ ] which means that those are optional.

We already have all arguments we need for createVehicle in our function: The position we just calculated in the x,y,z variables and the model id that we provided through the command ("createvehicle 468") and can access in the function as vehicleModel variable.

function createVehicleForPlayer(thePlayer, command, vehicleModel)
	local x,y,z = getElementPosition(thePlayer) -- get the position of the player
	x = x + 5 -- add 5 units to the x position
	-- create the vehicle and store the returned vehicle element in the ''createdVehicle'' variable
	local createdVehicle = createVehicle(tonumber(vehicleModel),x,y,z)
end

Of course this code can be improved in many ways, but at least we want to add a check whether the vehicle was created successfully or not. As we can read on the createVehicle page under Returns, the function returns false when it was unable to create the vehicle. Thus, we check the value of the createVehicle variable.

Now we have our complete script:

function createVehicleForPlayer(thePlayer, command, vehicleModel)
	local x,y,z = getElementPosition(thePlayer) -- get the position of the player
	x = x + 5 -- add 5 units to the x position
	local createdVehicle = createVehicle(tonumber(vehicleModel),x,y,z)
	-- check if the return value was ''false''
	if (createdVehicle == false) then
		-- if so, output a message to the chatbox, but only to this player.
		outputChatBox("Failed to create vehicle.",thePlayer)
	end
end
addCommandHandler("createvehicle", createVehicleForPlayer)

As you can see, we introduced another function with outputChatBox. By now, you should be able to explore the function's documentation page yourself. For more advanced scripting, please check out the Map Manager.

What you need to know

You already read some things about resources, command handlers and finding functions in the documentation in the first paragraph, but there is much more to learn. This section will give you a rather short overview over some of these things, while linking to related pages if possible.

Clientside and Serverside scripts

You may have already noticed these or similiar terms (Server/Client) somewhere on this wiki, mostly in conjunction with functions. MTA not only supports scripts that run on the server and provide commands (like the one we wrote above) or other features, but also scripts that run on the MTA client the players use to connect to the server. The reason for this is, that some features MTA provides have to be clientside (like a GUI - Graphical User Interface), others should be because they work better and still others are better off to be serverside or just don't work clientside.

Most scripts you will make (gamemodes, maps) will probably be serverside, like the one we wrote in the first section. If you run into something that can't be solved serverside, you will probably have to make it clientside. For a clientside script for example, you would create a ordinary script file (for example called client.lua) and specify it in the meta.xml, like this:

<script src="client.lua" type="client" />

The type attribute defaults to 'server', so you only need to specify it for clientside scripts. When you do this, the clientside script will be downloaded to the player's computer once he connects to the server. Read more about Client side scripts.

More complex resources

The previous section showed briefly how to add clientside scripts to the resource, but there is also much more possible. As mentioned at the very top of this page, resources can be pretty much everything. Their purpose is defined by what they do. Let's have some theoretical resources, by looking at the files it contains, the meta.xml and what they might do:

First example - A utility script

/admin_commands
	/meta.xml
	/commands.lua
	/client.lua

<meta>
	<info author="Someguy" description="admin commands" />
	<script src="commands.lua" />
	<script src="client.lua" type="client" />
</meta>

The commands.lua provides some admin commands, like banning a player, muting or something else that can be used to admin the server
The client.lua provides a GUI to be able to perform the mentioned actions easily

This example might be running all the time (maybe even auto-started when the server starts) as it's useful during the whole gaming experience and also wont interfere with the gameplay, unless an admin decides to take some action of course.

Second example - A gamemode

/counterstrike
	/meta.xml
	/counterstrike.lua
	/buymenu.lua

<meta>
	<info author="Someguy" description="Counterstrike remake" type="gamemode" />
	<script src="counterstrike.lua" />
	<script src="buymenu.lua" type="client" />
</meta>

The counterstrike.lua contains similiar to the following features:
- Let players choose their team and spawn them
- Provide them with weapons, targets and instructions (maybe read from a Map, see below)
- Define the game's rules, e.g. when does the round end, what happens when a player dies
- .. and maybe some more
The buymenu.lua is a clientside script and creates a menu to buy weapons

This example can be called a gamemode, since it not only intereferes with the gameplay, but actually defines the rules of it. The type attribute indicates that this example works with the Map manager, yet another resource that was written by the QA Team to manage gamemodes and map loading. It is highly recommended that you base your gamemodes on the techniques it provides.

This also means that the gamemode probably won't run without a map. Gamemodes should always be as generic as possible. An example for a map is stated in the next example.

Third example - A Map

/cs-airport
	/meta.xml
	/airport.map
	/airport.lua

<meta>
	<info author="Someguy" description="Counterstrike airport map" type="map" gamemodes="counterstrike" />
	<map src="airport.map" />
	<script src="airport.lua" />
</meta>

The airport.map in a XML file that provides information about the map to the gamemode, these may include:
- Where the players should spawn, with what weapons, what teams there are
- What the targets are
- Weather, World Time, Timelimit
- Provide vehicles
The airport.lua might contain map-specific features, that may include:
- Opening some door/make something explode when something specific happens
- Create or move some custom objects, or manipulate objects that are created through the .map file
- .. anything else map-specific you can think of

As you can see, the type attribute changed to 'map', telling the Map manager that this resource is a map, while the gamemodes attribute tells it for which gamemodes this map is valid, in this case the gamemode from the above example. What may come as a surprise is that there is also a script in the Map resource. Of course this is not necessarily needed in a map, but opens a wide range of possibilities for map makers to create their own world within the rules of the gamemode they create it for.

The airport.map file might look similiar to this:

<map mode="deathmatch" version="1.0">
	<terrorists>
		<spawnpoint posX="2332.23" posY="-12232.33" posZ="4.42223" skins="23-40" />
	</terrorists>
	<counterterrorists>
		<spawnpoint posX="2334.23443" posY="-12300.233" posZ="10.2344" skins="40-50" />
	</counterterrorists>

	<bomb posX="23342.23" posY="" posZ="" />
	
	<vehicle posX="" posY="" posZ="" model="602" />	
	<vehicle posX="" posY="" posZ="" model="603" />	
</map>

When a gamemode is started with a map, the map resources is automatically started by the mapmanager and the information it contains can be read by the gamemode resource. When the map changes, the current map resource is stopped and the next map resource is started. For a more in-depth explanation and examples of how map resources are utilized in the main script, please visit the Writing Gamemodes page.

Events

Events are the way MTA tells scripts about things that happen. For example when a player dies, the onPlayerWasted event is triggered. In order to perform any actions when a player dies, you have to prepare yourself similiar to adding a command handler, as shown in the first chapter.

This example will output a message with the name of the player who died:

function playerDied(totalAmmo, killer, killerWeapon, bodypart)
	outputChatBox(getPlayerName(source).." died!")
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerWasted",getRootElement(),playerDied)

Instead of showing what arguments are needed, the documentation page for Events shows what parameters are passed to the handler function, similiar to the way a command handler does, just that it is different from event to event. Another important point is the source variable, that exists in handler functions. It doesn't have to be added to the parameter list of the function, but it still exists. It has a different value from event to event, for player events (as in the example above) it is the player element. As another example, you can take a look at the basic spawning player script in the first section to get an idea how source is used.

Where to go from here

You should now be familiar with the most basic aspects of MTA scripting and also a bit with the documentation. The Main Page provides you with links to more information, Tutorials and References that allow a deeper look into the topics you desire to learn about.

From here we recommend reading the debugging tutorial. Good debugging skills are an absolute necessity when you are making scripts.
