[XBoss30]

When I want to spawn I want a Text Draw to get hidden so I did this:

On top of the filterscript:

PHP Code:

new Text:XBoss30; 


Under public OnPlayerSpawn(playerid):

PHP Code:

public OnPlayerSpawn(playerid)
{
    TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid, XBoss30);
    return 1;
} 


And under public OnGameModeInIt():

PHP Code:

 XBoss30 = TextDrawCreate(641.500000, 449.062500, "usebox");
    TextDrawLetterSize(XBoss30, 0.000000, -13.879164);
    TextDrawTextSize(XBoss30, -2.000000, 0.000000);
    TextDrawAlignment(XBoss30, 1);
    TextDrawColor(XBoss30, 255);
    TextDrawUseBox(XBoss30, true);
    TextDrawBoxColor(XBoss30, 255);
    TextDrawSetShadow(XBoss30, 0);
    TextDrawSetOutline(XBoss30, 0);
    TextDrawBackgroundColor(XBoss30, 255);
    TextDrawFont(XBoss30, 0);
    TextDrawSetProportional(XBoss30, 1); // Bottom Black Bar 


Still this TextDraw is being displayed when i run it and spawn.
Any Help? NewBie Here

Use TextDrawShowForPlayer under OnPlayerConnect.

It should work now.

I'm getting a whole bunch of errors saying:

PHP Code:

error 017: undefined symbol "playerid" 


and everything is set as you mentioned above, Fuuuck! [Saying this in a nice way]

The code made absolutely no sense.

A) There is no playerid parameter in OnGameModeInit.
B) You use a global TextDraw, not a per-player one. There is no point in using a per-player TextDraw if you want to show the same thing to everyone!

The code as such is correct! There must be a mistake somewhere else. Do you show/hide it somewhere else in the script? Does OnPlayerSpawn get called?

OnPlayerSpawn does get called and that's where "TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid, XBoss30[playerid]" is ?!
When i made textdraws i always made it like this and it worked perfectly but i don't know whats the problem now

try this

PHP Code:

public ongamemodeinit()
    TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid, XBoss30[playerid]); 
    return 1; 
and on 
public  onplayerspawn(playerid)
TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid
XBoss30[playerid]); 


it should work..

There's no playerid parameter on OnGameModeInit, do you have any idea of what you are doing? I guess not.
