If i understand u correctly, then this should work...but it doesnt.

  
function loadResource ( ) 
    theEntrance = createMarker ( 1481.0408935547, -1771.6051513672, 18.795755386353+1, "arrow", 1.5, 0, 255, 0, 170 ) 
    theExit =  createMarker ( 389.8681640625, 173.9693145752, 1008.3828125+1, "arrow", 1.5, 0, 255, 0, 170 ) 
    estateBlip = createBlip ( 1481.0408935547, -1771.6051513672, 18.795755386353+1, 44, 0, 0, 0, 255 ) 
    outputChatBox ( "The Estate has been Loaded!!" ) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", resourceRoot, loadResource ) 
  
function markerHit ( thePlayer, matchingDimension ) 
    if ( source == theEntrance ) then 
        outputChatBox ( "You are entering the Estate!", thePlayer ) 
        setElementDimension ( source, 10 ) 
        setElementInterior ( source, 3 , 389.8681640625, 173.9693145752, 1008.3828125 ) 
    elseif ( source == theExit ) then 
        outputChatBox ( "You are leaving the Estate!", thePlayer ) 
        setElementDimension ( source, 0 ) 
        setElementInterior ( source, 0 , 1481.0408935547, -1771.6051513672, 18.795755386353 )

No, you didn't get me wrong. You just need to learn more about interior system in GTA. There are specific interiors with their own ID and coordinates. That function "setElementInterior" I gave to you is used to change your current noraml interior (which is 0). And you also have to know about dimensions.

so technically, my script is suppose to work??

[AMARANT]

Technically, yes. But you have to specify correct coordinates, dimension and interior's ID. You can check out the interiors even from MTA Map Editor if you want.

OK, i got the id and locations, how will i use it?

  "PAPER" posX="388.87132732" posY="173.80432323" posZ="1008.38323254" rot="320" world="3" /> 

[AMARANT]

You have to use it like you did. Your mistake was that you were trying to change interior for 'source' in funciton arguments instead of 'thePlayer'. 'source' is your marker and not a player. I just didn't notice it back then, sorry.

thePlayer can not be a marker

[AMARANT]

TwiX! has a point. You just need to understand that 'source' is an element for a specific function. It can be a player in one case and a marker in other one (like yours). To get this you have to refer to function description at MTA wiki. In section "Returns" or "Source" of every described function you will find the 'source' of needed one.

AMARANT tell it to NooP

i know that.

source in "onMarketHit" it's the marker

in NooP code. He compares the player with the marker, it is wrong

so this is wrong??

  
function markerHit ( thePlayer, matchingDimension ) 
    if ( thePlayer == theEstateEntrance ) then 
        outputChatBox ( "You are entering the Estate!", getRootElement() ) 
        setElementInterior ( thePlayer , 3 , 389.8681640625, 173.9693145752, 1008.3828125 ) 
        setElementDimension ( thePlayer, 3 ) 
    end 
end 
  

[Castillo]

Yes, this line:

if ( thePlayer == theEstateEntrance ) then 

Should be:

if ( source == theEstateEntrance ) then 

And this line:

outputChatBox ( "You are entering the Estate!", getRootElement() ) 

Should be:

outputChatBox ( "You are entering the Estate!", thePlayer )
