Acting with close vehicles

[Flow 16]

Hey,

does anybody have a working example how to interact with vehicles or other objects like peds when you are close to them?

I tried the following which won't return the id of police cars or peds but also that seems not to work:

// some keybind before so this is executed when you press L

let closestVehicle = mp.game.vehicle.getClosestVehicle(localPlayer.position.x, localPlayer.position.y, localPlayer.position.z, 5, 0, 70);
mp.game.graphics.notify("Closest Vehicle ID: " + closestVehicle);

which will give an id of the vehicle. But if i try to use that vehicle with another action it will not work. For simple test i tried to explode the vehicle with the following command

let vehicleAct = mp.vehicles.at(closestVehicle)
vehicleAct.explode();

How do i interact with the given id as this seems not to work? I need a solution in Javascript only.

 

Thanks and regards

Might be worth trying to use

let vehicleAct = mp.vehicles.atHandle(closestVehicle);

These native functions return object handle id more likely than id in pool, also ive noticed that handle id changes when entity streams out and in.

let thenearestVehicle = mp.game.vehicle.getClosestVehicle(localPlayer.position.x, localPlayer.position.y, localPlayer.position.z, 5, 0, 70);
mp.game.graphics.notify("veh id: " + thenearestVehicle);

let testob = mp.vehicles.atHandle(thenearestVehicle);
testob.explode();

Nope. Neither works.

Just Explode it directly, No need to get its handle.

 

mp.game.vehicle.getClosestVehicle

gets the vehicle object direct, so just explode it directly

No,

did some quick test getClosestVehicle returned for me typeof(thenearestVehicle) is number and JSON.stringify(thenearestVehicle) is 7682 which i consider to be handle id. When you add some more test code from wiki for example

testob.setTyreBurst(0, false, 1000);
testob.setTyreBurst(1, false, 1000);
testob.setTyreBurst(4, false, 1000);
testob.setTyreBurst(5, false, 1000);

you will see that the closest vehicle has all tires popped but did not explode, because .explode() method does not seem to be working even trying example from wiki

if( commandName === "exptest")
{
  var vehicle = mp.vehicles.new(989294410, localPlayer.position); //Spawns Voltic2 at 'player' position
  vehicle.explode();
}

car was spawned without explosion in current 0.3.5 release. So stuff with atHandle mentioned earlier is the right way to do this

 

edit: btw i made it explode using

testob.explodeInCutscene(true);

made it explode with other function

Use explode() in server-side

It is for a quick example. I am aiming to repair, lock and refuel vehicle from the outside where i need it's handle. Its no problem while sitting IN the vehicle but i want to lock/unlock it from outside. That's the goal.

Best regards

This function is intended to simulate that the tires break when fired. getClosestVehicle() returns only one int, not the vehicle handle.

Here is my working client-side script:

mp.events.add('playerWeaponShot', (targetPosition) => {
    let nearestVehicle = mp.game.vehicle.getClosestVehicle(targetPosition.x, targetPosition.y, targetPosition.z, 2, 0, 70);

    if( nearestVehicle != 0 ) {
        // chance of damage
        if( Math.floor((Math.random() * 100) + 1) < 25 ) {
            for (var i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
                var DamagedWheel = Math.floor((Math.random() * 9));
                mp.vehicles.atHandle(nearestVehicle).setTyreBurst(DamagedWheel, true, 1000);
            }
        }
    }
});

But I think it's easier and safer to run these functions on the server side. Here is an example from my server:

mp.events.add('vehicle_toggle_lock', (Player) => {
    var NearbyVehicles = [];
    mp.vehicles.forEachInRange(Player.position, 2.5, (NerbyVehicle) => {
        NearbyVehicles.push(NerbyVehicle);
    });

	// sort the vehicles by range (0 is closest to the player)
    NearbyVehicles.sort(function(a, b){return b.dist(Player.position)-a.dist(Player.position)});

    if( NearbyVehicles.length > 0 )
    {
		if( NearbyVehicles[0].locked ) {
        	NearbyVehicles[0].locked = false;
        	Player.notify("You ~g~unlocked the vehicle.");
        	// MySQL_Conn.query("UPDATE vehicles SET veh_locked='0' WHERE vehicle=?", [NearbyVehicles[0].data.id]);
        } else {
        	NearbyVehicles[0].locked = true;
        	Player.notify("You ~r~locked the vehicle.");
        	// MySQL_Conn.query("UPDATE vehicles SET veh_locked='1' WHERE vehicle=?", [NearbyVehicles[0].data.id]);
        }
	}
});

        	// MySQL_Conn.query("UPDATE vehicles SET veh_locked='1' WHERE vehicle=?", [NearbyVehicles[0].data.id]);
        }
	}
});

 

What for? If there is a special tool for this?

//client-side
let localPlayer = mp.players.local
let idVehicle = mp.game.vehicle.getClosestVehicle(localPlayer.position.x, localPlayer.position.y, localPlayer.position.z, 10, 0, 70)
let vehicle = mp.vehicles.atHandle(idVehicle)
mp.events.callRemote("lockVehicle", vehicle)


//server-side
mp.events.add("lockVehicle", (player, vehicle) => vehicle.locked = !vehicle.locked)

On my server all data is stored in Mysql. When a player wants to lock or unlock a vehicle, it is checked if he has a key for the vehicle. But I cut the part out.

Everyone has to know that himself, how he wants to implement it. Both varieties work.
