This event is triggered when a player joins the server. This event is not cancellable.

Parameters

No parameters.

Source

The source of this event is the player who joined.

Example

This example gets the joined client's name and sends him a welcome message including his name. 

-- we register greetPlayer as a handler for the event
function greetPlayer ( )
	-- we store the player's name
	local joinedPlayerName = getPlayerName ( source )
	local serverName = getServerName( )
	-- and send him a greeting
	outputChatBox ( "Welcome " .. joinedPlayerName .. " to ".. serverName .."!" , source, 255, 255, 255 )
end
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerJoin", root, greetPlayer )

This example sets random color to every player who joins. 

-- create a table to save the color
ChatColors = {}

-- sets colors when player join
function onJoin ()
        -- create a table to add rgb values. Index will be the player element
	ChatColors[source] = {math.random (50, 255), math.random (50, 255), math.random (50, 255)}
end
-- checks if player has sent a message
function onChat ( message, messageType )
	if messageType == 0 then
                -- use the table to get the saved rgb values
		outputChatBox ( getPlayerName ( source ) .. ": #E0D0B0" .. message, root, ChatColors[source][1], ChatColors[source][2], ChatColors[source][3], true )
		cancelEvent()
	end
end
