HU/Introduction to Scripting the GUI - Part 2
Ebben a tutoriálban létre fogunk hozni egy egyszerű 'szabályok' ablakot egy elfogadási gombbal, és egy listával a szerver összes szabályáról, és infórmációjáról.
Megjegyzés: Vegye figyelembe, hogy ez a tutoriál a Bevezetés a GUI készítésébe tartalmára épül. |
A GUI készítése
Alapbeállítások
Az első dolog, amit létre kell hoznunk, az a GUI elem. Ehhez a tutoriálhoz egy ablakot, egy gombot és egy címkét használunk. Abszolút pozícióértékeket fogunk használni.
Ahogy az előző tutoriálban is említettük, minden GUI-t client oldalon kell létrehozni.
Ha követte az utasításokat az előző tutoriálból, akkor nyissa meg a gui.lua fájlt, amivel majd dolgozni fog.
Ha nem, lépjen a /Your MTA Server/mods/deathmatch/resources/myserver/ könyvtárba, és hozzon létre egy mappát "client" néven. A /client/ könyvtárban hozzon létre egy szöveges fájlt "gui.lua" néven.
Ha még nem tette meg, ne felejtse el hozzáadni az új gui.lua fájlt a meta.xml-hez a fő resource-ba, és adja meg client script-ként:
<script src="client/gui.lua" type="client" />
Ablak létrehozása
Ebben a fájlban írni fogunk egy function-t, ami kirajzolja az ablakot:
-- create the function that will hold our gui creation code function createRulesWindow() -- get the screen width and height local sWidth, sHeight = guiGetScreenSize() -- create the window, using some maths to find the centre of the screen local Width,Height = 445,445 local X = (sWidth/2) - (Width/2) local Y = (sHeight/2) - (Height/2) -- create the window rulesWindow = guiCreateWindow(X,Y,Width,Height,"Rules",false) -- stop players from being able to simply move the window out of the way guiWindowSetMovable(rulesWindow,false) -- stop players from being able to resize the window guiWindowSetSizable(rulesWindow,false) end
Ez létre fog hozni egy alap ablakot a képernyő közepére, ez az ablak nem mozgatható és méretezhető.
Gomb létrehozása
Most létrehozzuk a gombot az ablak aljára, melyre a játékos rá tud kattintani, hogy elfogadja a szabályokat:
Mostpedig több kódot adunk hozzá a már meglévő 'createRulesWindow' function-ünkhöz. Ez nem egy új function, hanem a már meglévőt helyettesíti.
function createRulesWindow() -- get the screen width and height local sWidth, sHeight = guiGetScreenSize() -- create the window, using some maths to find the centre of the screen local Width,Height = 445,445 local X = (sWidth/2) - (Width/2) local Y = (sHeight/2) - (Height/2) -- create the window and save the window gui element in a variable called 'rulesWindow' rulesWindow = guiCreateWindow(X,Y,Width,Height,"Rules",false) -- stop players from being able to simply move the window out of the way -- note that we use our 'rulesWindow' variable to make changes to the window guiWindowSetMovable(rulesWindow,false) -- stop players from being able to resize the window guiWindowSetSizable(rulesWindow,false) -- create the button and save the button gui element in a variable called 'rulesButton' rulesButton = guiCreateButton(137,394,158,37,"Accept",false,rulesWindow) end
Címke létrehozása
Most hozzáadjuk a címkét az ablakunk közepére, hogy megjelenítsük a szabályainkat:
Mostpedig több kódot adunk hozzá a már meglévő 'createRulesWindow' function-ünkhöz. Ez nem egy új function, hanem a már meglévőt helyettesíti.
function createRulesWindow() -- get the screen width and height local sWidth, sHeight = guiGetScreenSize() -- create the window, using some maths to find the centre of the screen local Width,Height = 445,445 local X = (sWidth/2) - (Width/2) local Y = (sHeight/2) - (Height/2) -- create the window and save the window gui element in a variable called 'rulesWindow' rulesWindow = guiCreateWindow(X,Y,Width,Height,"Rules",false) -- stop players from being able to simply move the window out of the way -- note that we use our 'rulesWindow' variable to make changes to the window guiWindowSetMovable(rulesWindow,false) -- stop players from being able to resize the window guiWindowSetSizable(rulesWindow,false) -- create the button and save the button gui element in a variable called 'rulesButton' rulesButton = guiCreateButton(137,394,158,37,"Accept",false,rulesWindow) -- create the label and save the label gui element in a variable called 'rulesLabel' -- we set the text of the label to our rules rulesLabel = guiCreateLabel(10,25,425,359,[[ Welcome to my MTA Server! Please carefully read the rules before accepting. By accepting the rules, you are agreeing to play by them. Anyone caught breaking these rules will be kicked and/or banned from this server. If you do not accept the rules within 90 seconds, you will be kicked. 1: No cheating. 2: No bug abuse. 3: No mods to your game. 4: No flaming. 5: Respect other players. 6: Be nice!]],false,rulesWindow) -- set the horizontal alignment of the label to center (ie: in the middle of the window) -- also note the final argument "true" -- this turns on wordwrap so if your text goes over the edge of the label, it will wrap around and start a new line automatically guiLabelSetHorizontalAlign(rulesLabel,"center",true) end
Vegye figyelembe, hogy a szöveg egy másik módon van hozzáadva (nem használunk idézőjeleket, "").
Szöveg
Két módja létezik a címke szövegének megadására. A legtöbb esetben az ajánlott módszer az, hogy az összes szöveget idézőjelek közé írja be:
guiSetText(guiElement,"My text here")
Azonban, ha egynél több sort szeretnénk a szövegünkbe helyezni, akkor ugyan olyan könnyen használhatjuk a második módszert. Csupán a helyzettől, és a személyes választástól függ, hogy melyik módszert válassza. A tisztánlátás érdekében röviden ismertetem mind a kettőt.
When using quotation marks, we can make use of the newline character: "\n"
This allows us to break onto a new line in our text by entering "\n". For example:
guiSetText(guiElement,"This is line 1. \n This is line 2. \n This is line 3.")
However, if we use brackets to enclose the text instead of quotation marks, we do not need to worry about entering any extra characters.
We can simply type the text out as we want it to appear in the label. For example:
guiSetText(guiElement,[[This is line 1. This is line 2. This is line 3.]])
Both of these examples will create exactly the same text on the label. It is entirely up to you which method you chose to use.
Using the function we wrote
The createRulesWindow function is now complete, but it won't do anything until we call it. It is recommended to create all GUI when the client resource starts, hide them, and show them to the player later when needed.
Therefore, we'll write an event handler for onClientResourceStart to create the window:
-- attach the event handler to the root element of the resource -- this means it will only trigger when its own resource is started addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), function () -- call the createRulesWindow function to create our gui createRulesWindow() end )
As this is a rules window, we need to show the window when the player joins the game. Fortunately, GUI elements are visible by default so we do not need to write any more code to achieve this.
However, we will also need to show the cursor for the player. This can be done using the same event, onClientResourceStart, so we can modify the above code to include showing the cursor:
Note that we are now writing more code for our 'onClientResourceStart' event. This is not a new function and is meant to replace what you already have.
-- attach the event handler to the root element of the resource -- this means it will only trigger when its own resource is started addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), function () -- call the createRulesWindow function to create our gui createRulesWindow() -- show the cursor to the player showCursor(true,true) end )
We now have a completed GUI rules window. Next, we need to write the button functionality for the accept button.
Scripting the Button
Now that we have created our GUI, we need to make it work.
Detecting the click
When the player clicks on any part of the GUI, the event "onClientGUIClick" will be triggered for the GUI component you clicked on. This allows us to easily detect any clicks on the GUI elements we want to use. For example, we can attach the event to the 'rulesButton' button to catch any clicks on it:
-- attach the event onClientGUIClick to rulesButton and set it to trigger the 'acceptRules' function addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", rulesButton, acceptRules, false)
Note the final argument passed is "false". This indicates that the event will only trigger directly on rulesButton, not if the event has propagated up or down the tree. Setting this to "true" while attaching to gui elements will mean that clicking on any element in the same branch will trigger this event.
This line of code can now be added inside the 'createRulesWindow' function. It is a common mistake to try and attach events to non-existant GUI elements, so make sure you always attach your events after the GUI element (in this case, the button) has been created:
function createRulesWindow() -- create all our GUI elements ... -- now add our onClientGUIClick event to the button we just created addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", rulesButton, acceptRules, false)
Managing the click
Now that we can detect when the player clicks on the button, we need to write code to manage what happens when they do. In our onClientGUIClick event handle, we told it to call the function 'acceptRules' whenever 'rulesButton' is clicked. Therefore, we can now use the function 'acceptRules' to control what happens when the button is clicked:
-- create the function and define the 'button' and 'state' parameters -- (these are passed automatically by onClientGUIClick) function acceptRules(button,state) -- if our accept button was clicked with the left mouse button, and the state of the mouse button is up if button == "left" and state == "up" then -- hide the window and all the components guiSetVisible(rulesWindow, false) -- hide the mouse cursor showCursor(false,false) -- output a message to the player outputChatBox("Thank you for accepting our rules. Have fun!") -- if the warning timer exists if rulesWarningTimer then -- stop the timer and set the variable to nil -- this is the timer used to kick players who do not accept the rules. We will cover this in more detail in the next section. killTimer(rulesWarningTimer) rulesWarningTimer = nil end end end
Now, when the button is clicked, the window and the cursor will be hidden.
Checking for agreement
Currently, our window will show when the player joins the server, and they must click accept to remove it. However, if they do not accept it they can stay in the server indefinately with the window open.
Setting a timer
To combat this, we will add a timer using setTimer to kick them from the server after a period of time if they have not accepted the rules. First, we will need a global variable to store the timer pointer:
local rulesWarningTimer = nil
Put this line at the very top of your script (it does not need to be inside a function)
Next, we will create our timer:
Note that we are now writing more code for our existing 'createRulesWindow' function.
function createRulesWindow() -- create all of our gui ... -- set a timer for 30 seconds and set it to call our 'inactivePlayer' function with "1" as an argument rulesWarningTimer = setTimer(inactivePlayer,30000,1,1) end
Put this setTimer line at the bottom of your 'createRulesWindow' function. This will create a timer that will trigger after 30 seconds.
Giving a warning
Now we will write our 'inactivePlayer' function, to administer warnings to the player and finally kick him if he does not accept:
-- create our function and define the 'status' parameter -- the value of status will be passed from our setTimer function call function inactivePlayer(status) -- if status is 1 (this means it is the first warning) if status == 1 then -- output a warning outputChatBox("Please accept our rules or be kicked.") -- set another timer to call inactivePlayer in another 30 seconds, with "2" as an argument rulesWarningTimer = setTimer(inactivePlayer,30000,1,2) -- if status is 2 (the second warning) elseif status == 2 then -- output a final warning outputChatBox("FINAL WARNING: Please accept our rules or be kicked.") -- set a final timer to call inactivePlayer in another 30 seconds, with "3" as an argument rulesWarningTimer = setTimer(inactivePlayer,30000,1,3) elseif status == 3 then -- trigger the server so we can kick the player triggerServerEvent("clientKickInactivePlayer",getLocalPlayer()) end end
Note the use of triggerServerEvent to call the server. You should have experience with client-server interaction from the Previous tutorial. If not, you can go back and read the full explanation there.
We have now completed all the clientside code for this tutorial.
Kicking the player
We now need to catch the event on the server that we triggered from the client, so open up a serverside lua file to work with.
To begin, we will add the event on the server:
-- add the event, note the final argument "true" indicates it can be triggered from the client addEvent("clientKickInactivePlayer",true) -- add an event handler for this event to trigger the kickInactivePlayer function addEventHandler("clientKickInactivePlayer",root,kickInactivePlayer)
Make sure you add your event handler after you have defined your 'kickInactivePlayer' function.
Note the use of addEvent and addEventHandler on the server. You should have experience with client-server interaction from the Previous tutorial. If not, you can go back and read the full explanation there.
Finally, we will add the 'kickInactivePlayer' function to control kicking of the player:
-- create our function function kickInactivePlayer() -- kick the player kickPlayer(client,"Please accept our rules.") end
Note the use of the 'client' variable, this is an MTA variable that holds the value of the client (player) that triggered the event.
Note that kickPlayer will require your resource to have kick access in your ACL.
This is most easily accomplished by adding your resource into your admin group in the ACL:
<group name="Admin"> ... <object name="resource.YourResourceName" /> ... </group>
For more information on the ACL, see the ACL wiki page.
That concludes this tutorial. You should now have a fully working rules window for your server.
