get objects in a colsphere

[zocken212]

Hey, again a problem from my side (._.).

This time I have a problem with checking if there is an object in the colshape. When I move the object to the marker (where the colshape is as well) nothing happends.

Here is the code of checking if there is an object:

  
setTimer(function() 
    local shape1 = getElementsWithinColShape(moneyShape1) 
    for index, p in ipairs(shape1) do 
        if getElementModel(p) == 2935 or 2934 then 
            destroyElement(p) 
        end 
    end 
end,50,0)

as far I know this script would remove every object within the colshape

setTimer(function()

• local shape1 = getElementsWithinColShape(moneyShape1)
  
  • for index, p in ipairs(shape1) do
    
    • if getElementModel(p) == 2935 or 2934 then
      destroyElement(p)

end

end

end,50,0)

remains always true, so if colshape did exist, then all elements would be destroyed.

You also would have an error/warning for trying to destroy player elements.

This can be written like this:

local model = getElementModel(p) 
 if  model == 2935 or model == 2934 then 

But I will recommend this:

local trueModels = {[2935]=true,[2934]=true} 
  
setTimer(function() 
    local shape1 = getElementsWithinColShape(moneyShape1) 
    for index, p in pairs(shape1) do 
        if trueModels[getElementModel(p)] then 
            destroyElement(p) 
        end 
    end 
end,50,0)

Ehm lol. First time I tried it worked, but then I tried it again and it stopped working?? The object seems deleted, but is still visible?

[IIYAMA]

Is the colshape still intact?

and what does debugscript 3 say?

[zocken212]

Debugscript 3 says nothing, colshape is still intact. Maybe the error is because the object it attached to another object?

[zocken212]

I don't know if this is allowed,but:

When I create the object in the colshape directly, it gets destroyed. If I move it attached into the colshape and detach it there or above it, nothing happends??

[IIYAMA]

attached at serverside?

[zocken212]

Yes

You can try to use:

  
setElementPosition(element,getElementPosition(element)) 
  

after you detach it.

I tried it several times and it worked everytime. Thank you very much

Good luck with your script.
