Warp player instantly into a vehicle

[Vivalavido]

Hey guys, ive been trying to warp a player instantly in a car when he does a command

Ive looked at the tutorial on the wiki

function createstartvehicles ( playerSource, commandName, car, x, y, z ) -- the function allows specification of your car, and the position 
  
    local racevehicle = createVehicle ( car, x, y, z )                   -- create a vehicle at the position specified by the startrace command 
    warpPlayerIntoVehicle ( playerSource, racevehicle )                  -- warp them straight into the vehicle 
end 
  
  
addCommandHandler ( "startrace", createstartvehicles )                   -- add a command to start race 

It also states at above:

This function is deprecated. This means it does not exist any more but there should be an alternative (usually more generic) way of performing what it once did.

Ive tried the script, get a bad argument @ createVehicle AND warpPlayerIntoVehicle.

Are there alternatives off warping a player into a vehicle by command?

Scar and Vivalavido, both guesses are wrong. I'll show the line which shows it.

If there's a bad argument in createVehicle, ofcourse then no vehicle is created. Simple as that.

So ehm, I see you're using parameters "car, x, y, z". Are you filling in ALL of them? And are you aware of car has to be a NUMBER value? Not a name.

So what command are you using? Could help us a lot helping you.

function createstartvehicles ( playerSource, commandName, car, x, y, z ) -- the function allows specification of your car, and the position 
  
    local racevehicle = createVehicle ( car, x, y, z )                   -- create a vehicle at the position specified by the startrace command 
    warpPlayerIntoVehicle ( playerSource, racevehicle )                  -- warp them straight into the vehicle 
end 
  
  
addCommandHandler ( "startrace", createstartvehicles )                   -- add a command to start race 

All the values passed to the function (createVehicle) must be numbers, arguments from command are all string, so? So, convert the values from the command to numbers:

createVehicle( tonumber( car ), tonumber( x ), tonumber( y ), tonumber( z ) )

Welll, basicly. I want to warp a player into a vehicle instantly by typing a command. But all my try's are fails.

What do you type when you see get that warnings about bad arguments? Post the entire text that you type before you press Enter.

All the values passed to the function (createVehicle) must be numbers, arguments from command are all string, so? So, convert the values from the command to numbers:

createVehicle( tonumber( car ), tonumber( x ), tonumber( y ), tonumber( z ) ) 

Exactly. So you've gotta change that in your script and try again, but filling your command regularly. Example:

/startrace 522 0 0 0 

This would create a vehicle on the middle of SA map (x = 0, y = 0, z = 0).

Try it and say us did it work.
