Asking for a vehicle Light function

[Overkillz]

Hello dear community, well, Im so dump right now and I have forgotten a new function which was added to MTA some few months ago. It was the possibility to keep the vehicle tail lights ON even if the time in game was too early. I have been several minutes looking for this function at the wiki, sadly, I couldn't find it.

Here some screen shots (Open the spoiler) if you don't understand me.

As you can see, on the first picture the car is stopped, but on the second one the car is stopping.Thanks for reading

I see, it work pretty good but, isnt there any other function that only modify tail lights ?

There  is a light element, but will probably only give partly the results you want.

Please read the notes:

Note:

• The direction of the light only has any effect if the light type is spot light.
• One light will only apply illumination effects to peds, players, wheels and number plates (like a emergency vehicle siren light does).
• Two or more lights will apply illumination effects to everything (excluding objects) that is in range of, at least, two of them.

Well, You gave me a great idea for other thing in a near future, however, this function didn't help me at all. Might I'm executing worngly the following function

I tried to create a simple light on my vehicle position with a red colour, however, It didn't work. I tried to change the light type from 1-3

function createTheLight()
	local theVeh = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer)
	if theVeh then
		local x,y,z = getElementPosition( theVeh )
		createLight(2,x,y,z,25,255,0,0,0,0,90,true)
		outputChatBox("Created Light")
	end
end
addCommandHandler("testlight",createTheLight)

Im already aware about that. But first, I want to create a simple light with X size and X colour. I won't attach it to my vehicle. That is a simple thing to do and I will leave it to the end.

Please read the > Note < again. It clearly says two lights for everything(except objects).

And you can't attach them with the attachElements function, only with setElementPosition.
