Speed-o-Meter and NOS doubt

[GamerDeMTA]

I want to create a Speed-O-Meter and a NOS "Speedometer" (which show u how much NOS u've)

How?

Thanks you

EDIT: Can u also say me the function for get the vehicle's HP (vehicle health)?

The Speed and the vehicle HP is not hard you can find on wiki function's for both.

About the NOS difren't story there is no function to get the NOS nivel. So you need to make a costum NOS function. (adding nos to the car checking when the player hit the Nos bind key, start a timer about 20-25s after that remove the nos from the car or lock the binkey for recharge time unlock the binkey ..... )

ah ok thanks. can you give me the functions for vehicle HP and speed? I didn't found them

[bandi94]

HP

GetElementHealth 

Speed

getElementVelocity

thanks :DD hey do u know if there's any NOS Speed-O-MeTer in the Community??

Ah, and for what's gthis function? I didn't understand in wiki:

getVehicleNitroCount 

ah and what means "if the vehicle is steamed in"?

[bandi94]

Hmmm i have no idea about this function i never seen it/used it , you can try the example code from wiki and see what it's doing, it's returning some NitroCount in int value so maybe they added a function to get the veh nitro level in the V 1.3.2 when i made my nos meter (on MTA 1.1) there was no function like this.

thanks it works! but there is two problems ( it says the health and the velocity (in kmh) with commas (like 120.2222333) like that ( and there's other problem. it says there are 140 HP of vehicle when my vehicle is already blowing!

You can round up the speed:

local speedStr = string.format( "%d", yourSpeedVar ); -- speedStr will be string: "120" 

Vehicles start burning at roughly 250hp, their maximum health is 1000hp. Once they start burning the health decreases slowly and eventually when it reaches 0 they explode. So, as you may know, when the vehicle is burning and you keep shooting at it the health decreases more quickly what makes them explode sooner then if you just watched it burning. So you can use vehicle's health percentage (0-1) instead of the actual value (0-1000)

local vehHealthPercent = (vehHealth - 250) / 1000;  -- vehHealthPercent will be < 0 when vehicle is burning
