Syntax

 getLatentEventHandles ( )

Code Examples

server

This command is triggering an latent-event to server, and if you write the command again and the trigger still didn't end then you have to wait.

-- CLIENT SIDE:


local lastTriggerd = false


addCommandHandler("trigger",function()
  local triggers = getLatentEventHandles() -- get all latent events
  if triggers[lastTriggerd] then -- you can use (getLatentEventStatus) too!
    outputChatBox("Wait until the trigger ("..lastTriggerd..") ends!",255,0,0)
    return
  end
  triggerLatentServerEvent("LatentEventsCheck",20000,resourceRoot,localPlayer)
  lastTriggerd = #getLatentEventHandles() -- set the lastTriggerd with the id for last event triggerd
end)


-- SERVER SIDE:


addEvent("LatentEventsCheck",true)
addEventHandler("LatentEventsCheck",root,function (thePlayer)
  outputChatBox("Latent trigger done from: " .. getPlayerName(thePlayer), root,math.random(255),0,0)
end)
