How to Blow Up player?

[LooooP]

well, I'm making a Race map, and I have a Client.lua file in my map folder with this:

function ClientStarted ()
setWaterLevel(-150)
end 
 
addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), ClientStarted )

And I want to know: How can I make a code for to the server blow up the vehicle if that is less than -23 in the position Z

You have to create a serverside script file with a timer in it, which gets started at resource start.

This timer checks every car for its position. If it is at -23 or less, then --> blowVehicle.

To get all cars, you can use getElementsByType.

This would be much easier if the MTA had a system like this: getVehiclePosition

[MaddDogg]

What you are searching for is getElementPosition.

Oh, ty

EDIT: This is what I got to do:

function Source
setTimer(Check, 5000)
 
function Check ()
float x, y
UnderWater = getElementPosition(vehicle model="411" posX="x" posY="y" posZ="-23")
setTimer(BlowUp, 1)
 
function BlowUp ()
blowVehicle(UnderWater)
setTimer(Source, 1)

Is it correct?

Just stopping by here:

getElementPosition(vehicle model="411" posX="x" posY="y" posZ="-23") is wrong.

getElementPosition ( vehicle ) -- vehicle can be retrieved using any getVehicleFrom... or getElement... commands. Is proper.

what a mess..

copying-pasting few snippets, few random words and joining them together WON'T work. NEVER.

if you want to make anything - sit down, read, spend on it few hours.

Here the code for you

NOTE: It's not debugged because I'm too lazy

EDIT: If you really want to learn lua download some resources from mtasa.com, try to understand them and read the lua tutorial!

EDIT2: There was a mistake @ line 8 getElementPosition but it's fixed now

function startBlowTimer()
setTimer(checkForPosition, 5000, 0) --set the timer to the interval you want! Now it's 5 sec
end
 
function checkForPosition()
players = getElementsByType("player")
for i, player in ipairs(players) do
	x, y, killz = getElementPosition(player)
if (killz < -23) then
		veh = getPedOccupiedVehicle(player)
blowVehicle(veh)
outputChatBox("Your vehicle was blown!", player, 255, 0, 0)
end
end
end
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", getRootElement(), startBlowTimer)
