[REL] Show vehicles on radar and map

[Guest]

With this scipt vehicles will be shown on ther radar and the map.

-- needs configurable blip colors, and team support 
root = getRootElement () 
color = { 196, 196, 196 } 
vehicles = {196, 196, 196} 
resourceRoot = getResourceRootElement ( getThisResource () ) 
  
function onResourceStart ( resource ) 
    for id, vehicle in ipairs( getElementsByType ( "vehicle" ) ) do 
        if ( vehicles[vehicle] ) then 
            createBlipAttachedTo ( vehicle, 0, 2, vehicles[source][1], vehicles[source][2], vehicles[source][3] ) 
        else 
            createBlipAttachedTo ( vehicle, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
function onVehicleSpawn ( spawnpoint ) 
    if ( vehicles[source] ) then 
        createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, vehicles[source][1], vehicles[source][2], vehicles[source][3] ) 
    else 
        createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
    end 
end 
  
function onVehicleDestroy () 
    destroyBlipsAttachedTo ( source ) 
end 
  
function setBlipsColor ( source, commandName, r, g, b ) 
    if ( tonumber ( b ) ) then 
        color = { tonumber ( r ), tonumber ( g ), tonumber ( b ) } 
        for id, vehicle in ipairs( getElementsByType ( "vehicle" ) ) do 
            destroyBlipsAttachedTo ( vehicle ) 
            if ( vehicles[vehicle] ) then 
                createBlipAttachedTo ( vehicle, 0, 2, vehicles[source][1], vehicles[source][2], vehicles[source][3] ) 
            else 
                createBlipAttachedTo ( vehicle, 0, 2, color[1], color[2], color[3] ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
function setBlipColor ( source, commandName, r, g, b ) 
    if ( tonumber ( b ) ) then 
        destroyBlipsAttachedTo ( source ) 
        vehicles[source] = { tonumber ( r ), tonumber ( g ), tonumber ( b ) } 
        createBlipAttachedTo ( source, 0, 2, vehicles[source][1], vehicles[source][2], vehicles[source][3] ) 
    end 
end 
  
addCommandHandler ( "setblipscolor", setBlipsColor ) 
addCommandHandler ( "setblipcolor", setBlipColor ) 
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", resourceRoot, onResourceStart ) 
addEventHandler ( "onVehicleSpawn", root, onVehicleSpawn ) 
addEventHandler ( "onVehicleDestroy", root, onVehicleDestroy ) 
  
function destroyBlipsAttachedTo(vehicle) 
    local attached = getAttachedElements ( vehicle ) 
    if ( attached ) then 
        for k,element in ipairs(attached) do 
            if getElementType ( element ) == "blip" then 
                destroyElement ( element ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end 

save it as vehicleblips.lua

and this save as meta.xml:

<meta> 
  <script src="vehicleblips.lua" type="server" /> 
</meta> 

Now make a zip-file that contains the vehicleblips.lua and the meta.xml in it with the name vehicleblips.zip.

How about releasing it as a zipped resource on community.multitheftauto.com?

How does this even work ?

  
addEventHandler ( "onVehicleSpawn", root, onVehicleSpawn ) 
addEventHandler ( "onVehicleDstroy", root, onVehicleDestroy ) 
  

onVehicleSpawn() should be onVehicleRespawn() ? onVehicleDstroy() (sic) should be onVehicleExplode() ? Even then it won't catch all vehicle clearances - only those that explode.

Isn't it the same script as this one:

No, this one doesnt stream
