Functions triggered by command handlers always have the player who typed the command as first argument server-side. No matter if you call it

- thePlayer

- theVehicle

- theObject

- theCake

- wutage

The content will always be a player. To get the vehicle that player is in, use getPedOccupiedVehicle

oh... okay now it works... tyvm

Heres the working script:

function EngineOff ( thePed )
local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( thePed )
 
setVehicleEngineState ( theVehicle , false )
 
outputChatBox("Engine is now off" , thePlayer)
end
addCommandHandler ( "engineoff", EngineOff )
 
function EngineOn ( thePed )
local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( thePed )
setVehicleEngineState ( theVehicle , true )
 
outputChatBox("Engine is now on" , thePlayer)
end
addCommandHandler ( "engineon", EngineOn )
