problem with OnCursorMove function

[Gothem]

well im creating a object placement with the cursor.

but the problem is...

than the worldX , worldY and worldZ parameters of OnCursorMove dont are totally correct.

so i have a problem.

i tried something for fix it but now is a lower error.

here is the code if someone know how fix it.

function MapaC() 
    if MComandante == true then 
        MComandante = false 
        showCursor ( false ) 
        toggleCameraFixedMode ( false ) 
        showPlayerHudComponent ("radar", true ) 
        unbindKey ( "arrow_u", "down", MovCam ) 
        unbindKey ( "arrow_d", "down", MovCam ) 
        unbindKey ( "arrow_l", "down", MovCam ) 
        unbindKey ( "arrow_r", "down", MovCam ) 
    else  
        MComandante = true 
        toggleCameraFixedMode ( true ) 
        x,y,z = getElementPosition ( getLocalPlayer() ) 
        setTimer(setCameraPosition,200,1, x, y, 75) 
        setTimer(setCameraLookAt,500,1, x, y, z) 
        objeto = createObject ( 3434, x, y, z) 
        showCursor(true) 
        showPlayerHudComponent ("radar", false ) 
        bindKey ( "arrow_u", "down", MovCam ) 
        bindKey ( "arrow_d", "down", MovCam ) 
        bindKey ( "arrow_l", "down", MovCam ) 
        bindKey ( "arrow_r", "down", MovCam ) 
    end 
end 
  
function MovCam ( key ) 
    if key == "arrow_u" then 
        x,y,z = getCameraPosition () 
        setCameraPosition( x, y+1, z) 
        setTimer(setCameraLookAt,250,1, x, y+1, getGroundPosition(x,y,z)) 
    elseif key == "arrow_d" then 
        x,y,z = getCameraPosition () 
        setCameraPosition( x, y-1, z) 
        setTimer(setCameraLookAt,250,1, x, y-1, getGroundPosition(x,y,z)) 
    elseif key == "arrow_l" then 
        x,y,z = getCameraPosition () 
        setCameraPosition( x-1, y, z) 
        setTimer(setCameraLookAt,250,1, x-1, y, getGroundPosition(x,y,z)) 
    elseif key == "arrow_r" then 
        x,y,z = getCameraPosition () 
        setCameraPosition( x+1, y, z) 
        setTimer(setCameraLookAt,250,1, x+1, y, getGroundPosition(x,y,z)) 
    end 
end 
  
function Construccion(cursorX, cursorY, absoluteX, absoluteY, worldX, worldY, worldZ) 
    if MComandante == true then 
        Z = getGroundPosition(worldX,worldY,worldZ) + getElementDistanceFromCentreOfMassToBaseOfModel(objeto) * 2 
        outputChatBox ( "Variables: X="..worldX.."Y="..worldY.."Z="..Z ) 
        setElementPosition ( objeto, worldX, worldY, Z) 
    end 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onClientCursorMove",getRootElement(),Construccion) 

if someone know how fix it thx

PD: you need to add

MapaC() 

in a command or something

I did something with object dragging in one of my earlier resources.

i will see it

EDIT:

i saw the code but can you explain me it a little?

[Ace_Gambit]

I've simplified things a bit by taking the part that should interest you the most. It's easier to read now .

  
local selectedElement = false 
local screenX, screenY = guiGetScreenSize() 
  
function onClientCursorMove(cursorX, cursorY) 
  local worldX, worldY, worldZ = 0, 0, 0 
  local rotX, rotY, rotZ = 0, 0, 0 
  local depth = 0 
  local distance = 0 
  cursorX = screenX * (cursorX / 1) 
  cursorY = screenY * (cursorY / 1) 
  depth = (math.abs(cursorY - screenY) / screenY) * 100 
  depth = 50.0 * ((depth / 100) * (depth / 100)) 
  worldX, worldY, worldZ = getWorldFromScreenPosition(cursorX, cursorY, depth) 
  collision, pX, pY, pZ, element = processLineOfSight(worldX, worldY, worldZ + 5.0, worldX, worldY, -100, true, true, true, true, false, true, true, true, nil) 
  if (selectedElement) then 
    distance = getElementDistanceFromCentreOfMassToBaseOfModel(selectedElement) 
    if (collision and getKeyState("lshift")) then 
      worldZ = pZ + distance 
    end 
    if (getElementType(selectedElement) == "vehicle") then 
      setVehicleFrozen(selectedElement, true) 
    end 
    setElementPosition(selectedElement, worldX, worldY, worldZ) 
  end 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onClientCursorMove", getRootElement(), onClientCursorMove, true)

thx

i will see if it works to me

EDIT:

well i see than it works better than before but when the cursor is in the buttom of the screen the position of the object start to fail

[Ace_Gambit]

In what way is it failing?

[Gothem]

In what way is it failing?

well i have the camera like GTA 2

and when i try to make the object at the bottom of the screen it cant go there

Obviously because the code above takes the screen depth into account. The closer you get to the bottom of the screen the closer the object moves towards you. That's what it is supposed to do. It's not working for "bird view".

so what need to do for make it working?

[Gothem]

sry for double post and revive the topic but i need to know how i can make it fully working

[Gamesnert]

Try removing birdview for a small while?

[Gothem]

Try removing birdview for a small while?

i need it to be bird view.

i like make it as warcraft for build things

[XetaQuake]

I think you need to remove the maths and the "depth"

i like make it as warcraft for build things

Oh well - i hope you release it
