Attaching a marker / colshape to a vehicle?

[Bean666]

Hello, i attached a marker to a vehicle, and I have an onMarkerHit function on the marker that's attached to the vehicle, but whenever it changes position, like i drive the car somewhere else, the onMarkerHit only works where the vehicle was created. the Marker moved with the vehicle but its just the onMarkerHit, the marker on the vehicle does not work anymore, only where the marker was created the onmarkerhit works despite the marker moving with the vehicle.

 

function createveh()
testveh = createVehicle(456, -1497.548828125, 2576.759765625, 56.061462402344, 0, 0, 357.63516235352)
setVehicleDamageProof(testveh,true) 
bx, by, bz = getElementPosition(testveh)
testmarker = createMarker(bx, by, bz, "cylinder", 5.5, 0, 255, 0, 255)
testmarker2 = createMarker(bx, by, bz, "cylinder", 10, 0, 255, 0, 255)
attachElements(testmarker, testveh)
  attachElements(testmarker2, testveh)
end
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, createveh)

addEventHandler("onMarkerHit", resourceRoot,
function(hitPlayer)
if source == defusemarker then
if hitPlayer and getElementType ( hitPlayer ) == 'player' then
local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(hitPlayer)
if theVehicle then return end
local playerTeam = getPlayerTeam ( hitPlayer ) 
if getPlayerTeam ( hitPlayer ) and getPlayerTeam ( hitPlayer ) == getTeamFromName("Red Team") then
outputChatBox("Works", hitPlayer, 180, 0, 0, true)
end
end
end
end)

 

EDIT: just noticed, that this is giving the problem since I have 2 markers attached to the vehicle, How do i make for the two of them to attach? is there anyway to attach 2 markers at a vehicle? I mean it's weird both markers go with the vehicle but only one works, the other one's location is stuck where it was created, but the marker itself was going with the vehicle. EX: i move the vehicle, i step in marker1 , it works, but when i step in marker 2, it doesnt, then when I go where the markers, vehicle was created, the marker 2 works, its stuck in the location where it was created.

You can see here that there is an issue with attaching elements for the onMarkerHit event. The issue has been on for many years and yet it's still not fully solved.
It still kinda works tho but only for 1 marker.

I don't know what exactly you want to do with those markers but there could be other ways of achieving what's on your mind.

Unfortunately you can't rely on this method if you want to attach 2 or more markers to a vehicle.

EDIT: Nvm found a solution. Send both of the markers to the clients (after you create and attach them) and then manage the marker hit with onClientMarkerHit.

I managed to create a solution but it's not so clean but can you please tell me how I can send both of them / what functions to use after creating them? it seems cleaner Thanks.

Server:

function createveh()
	testveh = createVehicle(500, -1497.548828125, 2576.759765625, 56.061462402344, 0, 0, 357.63516235352)
	setVehicleDamageProof(testveh,true) 
	bx, by, bz = getElementPosition(testveh)
	testmarker = createMarker(bx, by, bz, "cylinder", 10, 0, 255, 0, 255)
	testmarker2 = createMarker(bx, by, bz, "cylinder", 5.5, 255, 0, 0, 255)
	
	attachElements(testmarker, testveh)
	attachElements(testmarker2, testveh)

	setTimer(function() -- using a timer to wait the client to load the script
		triggerClientEvent(root, "getMarkers", root, testmarker, testmarker2)
	end, 1000,1)
end
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, createveh)

Client:

local testmarker
local testmarker2
function getMarkers(marker1, marker2)
	testmarker = marker1
	testmarker2 = marker2
end
addEvent("getMarkers",true)
addEventHandler("getMarkers", root, getMarkers)


function markerHit()
	if source == testmarker then
		outputChatBox("just hit marker 1")
	elseif source == testmarker2 then
		outputChatBox("just hit marker 2")
	end
end
addEventHandler("onClientMarkerHit", root, markerHit)

*This is just an example, could be done better

Note: This is not so secure way to do it tho. Remember to not fully trust what the client sends!
