How to make that script?

[arer]

Hi. My question is how to make this script:

When i press LSHIFT and later click W (LSHIFT+W at the same time), player is changing position on X+0.05
The same thing with LSHIFT+S - change position to X-0.05

And.. Repeat this way with Lshift+A, Lshift+D to Y coordinate.

 

bindKey( "lshift", "both", 
function (player) 
    if getKeyState("lshift") == true then 
  local px,py,pz=getElementPosition(player)
    setElementPosition(player, px+0.05, py, pz)
    elseif getKeyState("lshift") == false then 
  local px,py,pz=getElementPosition(player)
    setElementPosition(player, px-0.05, py, pz)
    end 
end ) 

 

I have tried this but it is not working..

You should be used function getKeyState on Client side
Are you used the script on server side?

From the argument, we know he use bindKey on client side. If he pass such arguments on server side, warning will be caused.

I think this is on client side.

Im looking for something like this:

https://github.com/lpiob/MTA-XyzzyRP/blob/master/resources/[XyzzyRP]/lss-core/anims_c.lua

 

But this script is made for some gamemode and is not working for me.

You want to move player position when they press lshift + w/a/s/d?

You need to bind w/a/s/d key and check if lshift key is pressed.

bindKey( "w", "down",
	function ()
		if getKeyState( "lshift" ) == true then
			local px,py,pz=getElementPosition(localPlayer)
			setElementPosition(localPlayer, px+0.05, py, pz)
		end
    end
)

-- and more...

Also, adding X coordinate doesn't mean you can go forward (if you trying to make player go forward). You need to get player rotation and finding the +0.05 coordinate in front of player.

I think that you should go to wiki and have a look.

The first argument of call back function sticked to bindKey is the key you pressed or released.

You can use this to get position in front etc.

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/GetElementMatrix

function getPositionFromElementOffset(element,offX,offY,offZ)
    local m = getElementMatrix ( element )  -- Get the matrix
    local x = offX * m[1][1] + offY * m[2][1] + offZ * m[3][1] + m[4][1]  -- Apply transform
    local y = offX * m[1][2] + offY * m[2][2] + offZ * m[3][2] + m[4][2]
    local z = offX * m[1][3] + offY * m[2][3] + offZ * m[3][3] + m[4][3]
    return x, y, z                               -- Return the transformed point
end

-- Get the position of a point 3 units to the right of the element:
x,y,z = getPositionFromElementOffset(element,3,0,0)

-- Get the position of a point 2 units in front of the element:
x,y,z = getPositionFromElementOffset(element,0,2,0)

-- Get the position of a point 1 unit above the element:
x,y,z = getPositionFromElementOffset(element,0,0,1)

Thanks all it works very fine

But how to fill getPositionFromElementOffset good in script to set for example X coordinate as (player front facing angle)+0.5??

function getPositionFromElementOffset(element,offX,offY,offZ)
    local m = getElementMatrix ( element )  -- Get the matrix
    local x = offX * m[1][1] + offY * m[2][1] + offZ * m[3][1] + m[4][1]  -- Apply transform
    local y = offX * m[1][2] + offY * m[2][2] + offZ * m[3][2] + m[4][2]
    local z = offX * m[1][3] + offY * m[2][3] + offZ * m[3][3] + m[4][3]
    return x, y, z                               -- Return the transformed point
end


bindKey( "w", "down",
	function ()
		if getKeyState( "lshift" ) == true then
			local px,py,pz=getElementPosition(localPlayer)
			local x,y,z = getPositionFromElementOffset(localPlayer, px, py, pz)
			setElementPosition(localPlayer, x, y, z)
		end
    end
)

 

It's throwing away my character on some far away coordinates.

Use the camera object.

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/GetCamera

 

local camera = getCamera()
bindKey( "w", "down",
	function ()
		if getKeyState( "lshift" ) == true then
      		-- position is already included in the matrix
			local x,y,z = getPositionFromElementOffset(camera, 0, 3, 0)
			setElementPosition(localPlayer, x, y, z)
		end
    end
)
