Hi guys,
i'm currently fiddling with Game.Fibers, everything work so far ingame, the only thing is, i cannot End() the callout with the "end" key. I think its because i am "stuck" in the while loop, until the callout ends automatically within the procedure itself? i want to add "if (Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.End)) End();"

I tried everything, but it seems not to work within the while loop

- read comments please;)

Here is the code, please dont hate i'm a noob

 

public override void Process()  
  //...more code here...
  
	else if (MainScenario > 60)
            {

                CalloutRunning2 = true;
                while (CalloutRunning2)
                {
                    //somewhere here i want to add the possibility to End() the callout with "if (Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.End)) End();" if possible? 
                    // Wait until the player is within 30 units of the area
                    while (Game.LocalPlayer.Character.DistanceTo(area) >= 30)
                    {
                        GameFiber.Wait(0);
                    }

                    // Wait until the player exists and is within 10 units of the area
                    while (Game.LocalPlayer.Character.Exists() && Game.LocalPlayer.Character.DistanceTo(area) >= 10)
                    {
                        GameFiber.Yield();

                    }

                    if (Game.LocalPlayer.Character.Exists() && Game.LocalPlayer.Character.DistanceTo(area) < 10)
                    {

                        Game.DisplaySubtitle("~y~Search the area for the caller. (Wait a few seconds, callout ends automatically!");

                        // Wait a few seconds till callout ends
                        GameFiber.Wait(10000);

                        Game.DisplayNotification("~b~Player:~w~ Dispatch, Nothing found.");
                        GameFiber.Wait(500);
                        End(); //callout ends here automatically then (on purpose)
                        break;
                    }
  
                }
                CalloutRunning2 = false;
            }
            if (Functions.IsPedArrested(Suspect)) End();
            if (Suspect.IsDead) End();
            if (Game.LocalPlayer.Character.IsDead) End();
            if (Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.End)) End(); // this only works in my first Mainscenario < 60

            base.Process();
        }

 

thanks,

Do you get an End() event?
Add debug output and test where in your while-loop you actually is, when you press keys.end
Do you yield your mail loop?
Does the plugin run or does it crash

I would btw not check for distance on every tick. Use gametime and check in ~250 ms gabs

You need to be careful when using GameFiber.Wait(), because what you are doing is pausing the whole lspdfr plugin.
When pressing End while the plugin is frozen/ paused, it won't end.

Hi,

 

thanks for your response. Yea that would make sense, that i cannot End it then, when the whole lspdfr plugin is paused. I will rethink it and try another way.

 

Thank you both:)

best,

totem

for the sake of documentation:

 

i removed all while loops and game.fiber wait etc. and did everything with if statements.

 

solved.

 

thanks,
