Hello! How can I make a script that whenever I press something the choice disappears. Example :

menu(id,"Container,Take coins,Take garbage")

But when I press the "Take Coins" How do I make it disappear on the choices? After I presses the "take coins" it must be like this

menu(id,"Container,,Take garbage")

You can store the buttons in a table and remove/modify the values when user makes his selection. Then you'll generate a string for your new menu based on this table.

How do you actually store it? Can you lend me an example?

menutbl = {"Take coins","Take garbage"}

addhook("serveraction","openmenu")
function openmenu(id,a)
	if (a == 1) then
		menu(id,"Container,"..table.concat(menutbl,","))
	end
end

addhook("menu","selectinmenu")
function selectinmenu(id,title,b)
	if (title == "Container") then
		menutbl[b] = ""
		menu(id,"Container,"..table.concat(menutbl,","))
	end
end

This is the general structure of how this could be done. When you press F2, you open the menu, and upon pressing each button, the button disappears and the updated menu reopens.

Oh my. This is fantastic. Thank you.

EDIT!

Whenever I press the button it gives me an error.

The error :

server.lua:13: table index is nil

Still the same code that you used @ user

Bravo. Thank you both.

Moderators : Please close the thread

Sorry for reviving this (not so old, but whatever) thread, but I haven't seen it and I think I can help you if you're interested in more universal version of script you asked for. I'm providing it here:

Code

Clicking a button doesn't remove it, but deactivates it.

Additional info

PlayerMenus is a table that stores data of clicked buttons in certain menus. For example:

PlayerMenus[1]["Cheats"][3]

is "true" when player with server ID has clicked button no.3 in menu "Cheats". Quite easy to understand.

But if you want to show menu to a player with deactivated clicked buttons, you need to use "ConstructMenu" function instead of "menu".
First argument is player's id, second is a title and third is table with strings for buttons' texts:
ConstructMenu(id:int, title:string, items:table)

Full example I made for you

Avo: Thank you. I will try it too.

Edit

Sorry for reviving this.

@ user

EngiN33R: How do you make only one button disappear? Not the other buttons?
