Help with isElementWithinColShape

[adamb]

for k,v in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
 bindKey(v, "o", "down", "pullover") 
end 
  
local circlearea = createColCircle ( 0, 0, 10 ) 
  
function ColShapeHit ( su, matchingDimension ) 
    local detection = isElementWithinColShape ( su, circlearea ) 
    if detection  then 
        if ( getElementType ( su ) == "vehicle" ) then 
            setVehicleEngineState ( su, false ) 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
addCommandHandler("pullover", ColShapeHit) 
  

Basically supposed to stop the NPC ped in the colsphere, doesn't work for some reason, can anyone look thru it and correct it?

Because "su" is a player and not a vehicle.

try this:

for k,v in pairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
 bindKey(v, "o", "down", "pullover") 
end 
  
local circlearea = createColCircle ( 0, 0, 10 ) 
  
function ColShapeHit ( su, command) 
    local vehicle =getPedOccupiedVehicle ( su ) 
    if isElementWithinColShape ( vehicle, circlearea ) and getElementType ( vehicle ) == "vehicle"  then 
            setVehicleEngineState ( vehicle, false ) 
    end 
end 
  
addCommandHandler("pullover", ColShapeHit)

Ima try it thank you!

[IIYAMA]

btw you can remove this one:

and getElementType ( vehicle ) == "vehicle" 

not required in the script, (sorry)

Got an error @ Line 9, expected element, got boolean.

local circlearea = createColCircle ( 0, 0, 10 ) 
  
function ColShapeHit ( hitElement, matchingDimension ) 
    local detection = isElementWithinColShape ( hitElement, circlearea ) 
    if (detection and (getElementType(hitElement) == "vehicle")) then 
        setVehicleEngineState (hitElement, false) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", circlearea, ColShapeHit) 
  

It will not work with Command handler becouse the parameters are hitElement and the dimension. CommandHandler givs player, commandname and rest. And a Player is not a vehicle. Use onColShapeHit or make 2 functions:

  
local circlearea = createColCircle ( 0, 0, 10 ) 
  
function ColShapeHit ( hitElement, matchingDimension ) 
    local detection = isElementWithinColShape ( hitElement, circlearea ) 
    if (detection and (getElementType(hitElement) == "vehicle")) then 
        setVehicleEngineState (hitElement, false) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", circlearea, ColShapeHit) 
  
function triggerEventColShapeHit(player) 
local pVeh = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( player ) 
local curDimen = getElementDimension(player) 
    if (pVeh and curDimen) then 
        triggerEvent("onColShapeHit", player, pVeh, curDimen) 
    else 
        outputChatBox("Vehicle not found! Enter a vehicle", player, 255, 0, 0) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("tColshape", triggerEventColShapeHit) 
  

Not tested at all but after debugging it should work like this

[IIYAMA]

  
for k,v in pairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
     bindKey(v, "o", "down", "pullover") 
end 
  
local circlearea = createColCircle ( 0, 0, 10 ) 
  
addCommandHandler("pullover",   
function ( su, command) 
    local vehicle =getPedOccupiedVehicle ( su ) 
    if vehicle and isElementWithinColShape ( vehicle, circlearea ) then 
        setVehicleEngineState ( vehicle, false ) 
    end 
end)
