Need some help with moveObject...

[tinnetju]

Oké, guys i made a flying UFO that flies over Los Santos. But when i run the script, nothing happens! Just nothing, i debugged the script and also nothing.

Here are my files:

meta.xml

replacescript.lua

function replaceModel()
 
 txd = engineLoadTXD("kmb_skip.txd", 3065 )
engineImportTXD(txd, 3065)
 dff = engineLoadDFF("kmb_skip.dff", 3065 )
engineReplaceModel(dff, 3065)
 
end
 
addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), replaceModel)

addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getRootElement(), ufo0 )

[Spider Pork]

Just a note; you only create 2 UFO objects, 0 (with the handler) and 1 (with the timer).

Also, when adding the handler, you should do this:

addEventHandler("onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), ufo0)

And why create them separately?

What is separately...? Im from holland i don't understand expensive words...

And why can i create only 2 ufo objects?

ignore Spider Pork's message, he said it wrong.

you need new timer every move function (ufo1, ufo2, ufo3) --- like in ufo4 function

[tinnetju]

So a... like this:

----------------------------------------------------UFO-----------------------------------------------------
 
function ufo0()
setTimer ( ufo1, 20000, 1 )
obj = createObject ( 3065, 1816.2037353516, 2984.2958984375, 18.470184326172, 0.0, 0.0, 180.0 )
end
 
function ufo1 ()
moveObject ( obj, 30000, 1819.6104736328, 2972.0537109375, 2972.0537109375 )
setTimer ( ufo2, 10000, 1 )
end
 
function ufo2 ()
moveObject ( obj, 30000, 2143.0268554688, 1934.6469726563, 50.037300109863 )
setTimer ( ufo3, 10000, 1 )
end
 
function ufo3 ()
moveObject ( obj, 30000, 2043.7503662109, 1484.8260498047, 37.90535736084 )
setTimer ( ufo4, 10000, 1 )
end
 
function ufo4 ()
moveObject ( obj, 6000, 1968.7268066406, 1556.1391601563, 47.898307800293 )
setTimer ( ufo5, 10000, 1 )
end
 
function ufo5 ()
moveObject ( obj, 90000, 35.0500831604, 2239.6882324219, 126.6796875848 )
And what has to be here? Just ufo 6 when ufo 6 doesnt exist? Or just setTimer ( ufo5, 10000, 1 )
setTimer ( ufo6, 10000, 1 )
end
 
 
 
And this has to be like this?:
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getRootElement(), ufo0 )

[dzek (varez)]

eeehhh...

you dont have any idea about how it's working step by step, right?

-- better use:
 
ufoPositions = {
{ 3000, 1000, 1000, 30}, -- time, posX, posY, posZ -- notice: when time is too low, ufo movement will be just too fast, and you wont see it!! (3000 is TOO LOW BTW for more than 20 meters or something)
{ 3000, 500, 500, 500},
{ 3000, 1000, 500, 30},
{ 3000, 500, 1000, 30},
{ 3000, 1000, 500, 30} -- notice there are no comma here (afair you can leave it here in lua, but im not sure)
}
 
idleTime = 1000 -- time that ufo should stop after every move (you can set it to zero, or more)
 
 
-------------------- DONT TOUCH ANYTHING BELOW THIS ---------------------
 
iterator = 1
max = #ufoPositions
 
ufo =createObject ( 3065, 1816.2037353516, 2984.2958984375, 18.470184326172, 0.0, 0.0, 180.0)
 
nextUfo()
 
function nextUfo()
 iterator=iterator+1
if (iterator>max) then iterator = 1 end
moveObject(ufo, ufoPositions[iterator][1], ufoPositions[iterator][2], ufoPositions[iterator][3], ufoPositions[iterator][4])
setTimer(nextUfo, ufoPositions[iterator][1]+idleTime, 1)
end

edit:

NOT TESTED of course ;p
