SetPlayerPromptFor

The use prompt one viewer alone sees over a player.

viewer sees text over pid instead of everyone’s prompt; "" shows them none, nil gives them everyone’s again. OnPlayerInteractPlayer fires for the viewer’s use key while their prompt shows. Gone when either player leaves. hidden works as in SetPlayerPrompt: the viewer’s use key is armed with nothing drawn over the player’s head.

Syntax

SetPlayerPromptFor(viewer, pid, text, hidden)

Parameter	Type
viewer	number	the player who sees the prompt
pid	number	the player it hangs over
text	string | nil	the word; "" = none for them; nil = everyone’s again
hidden	boolean | nil	true = no [E] text line over the head for this viewer, the use key still works

Returns

boolean - false when either is not connected, or they are one player

Example

-- a guard on duty sees "Arrest" over a wanted player; everyone else still sees "Talk"
