[Stevenn]

yes, i forgot to add this. but this is what i got so far

function createMarkerOnVehicleEnter () 
    if getElementModel ( getPedOccupiedVehicle ( localPlayer ) ) == myid then 
    triggerEvent ( "my event", localPlayer ) 
    end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientVehicleEnter", root, createMarkerOnVehicleEnter )

and what do you want to do with that

[Stevenn]

well its rather obvious isn't it? i can't test the code atm as im not on my normal PC

[Absence2]

no it isn't, first of all, that code will never work. it's a complete mess, including syntax errors.

read this (from wiki)

function planeEnter ( theVehicle, seat, jacked ) -- when someone enters a vehicle 
    local id = getElementModel ( theVehicle ) -- get the model ID of the vehicle 
    if id == 519 or id == 577 then -- if theVehicle is either Shamal or AT-400 
        local vehicleName = getVehicleName ( theVehicle ) -- get the name of theVehicle 
        outputChatBox ( "Someone stole a " .. vehicleName .. "!" ) -- announce that someone stole the plane 
    end 
end 
-- add the event handler to the event 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerVehicleEnter", getRootElement(), planeEnter )

local tVehicles = 
{ 
    [ 411 ] = true; 
} 
  
addEventHandler ( 'onClientVehicleEnter', root, 
    function ( uPlayer ) 
        if ( tVehicles [ getElementModel ( source ) ] ) then -- if vehicle is any of the ids in the table 
            triggerEvent ( 'checkForData', uPlayer ); -- trigger event [ THAT'S JUST AN EXAMPLE ] 
        end 
    end 
) 

You can add more vehicles to the table doing:

[ Vehicle ID ] = true; -- change to false if you don't wanna check if vehicle is that 

Hope you understand.

Alright, it works perfectly thank ya'll. (I decided to use it serversided)

[Castillo]

local tVehicles = 
{ 
    [ 411 ] = true; 
} 
  
addEventHandler ( 'onClientVehicleEnter', root, 
    function ( uPlayer ) 
        if ( tVehicles [ getPedOccupiedVehicle ( uPlayer ) ] ) then -- if vehicle is any of the ids in the table 
            triggerEvent ( 'checkForData', uPlayer ); -- trigger event [ THAT'S JUST AN EXAMPLE ] 
        end 
    end 
)

[ Vehicle ID ] = true; -- change to false if you don't wanna check if vehicle is that

This will never work because you're checking if the userdata of the vehicle is on the table, you must get the vehicle model instead.

local tVehicles = 
{ 
    [ 411 ] = true; 
} 
  
addEventHandler ( 'onClientVehicleEnter', root, 
    function ( uPlayer ) 
        if ( tVehicles [ getElementModel ( source ) ) ] ) then -- if vehicle is any of the ids in the table 
            triggerEvent ( 'checkForData', uPlayer ); -- trigger event [ THAT'S JUST AN EXAMPLE ] 
        end 
    end 
)

Big fail.
