Hi, I've got this script, and it worked fine, until yesterday, it doesn't respawn the exploded vehicles anymore..

This is the script:

function respawnExplodedVehicle() 
    setTimer( respawnExplodedVehicle, 5000, 1, source ) 
end 
addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), respawnExplodedVehicle)

And this is the script without any changes (it will give errors in the console when it's this, the problem is at line 2):

function respawnVehicle() 
    setTimer( respawnVehicle, 5000, 1, source ) 
end 
addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), respawnExplodedVehicle)

This is the error if it's the second one:

[gameplay]/vehiclerespawn/explode.lua:2 Bad 'element' pointer @ 'respawnVehicle'(1)

So I don't know what to do now since my knowledge for .lua is not that good, however this might be a simple problem..

Thanks :D

This is the wiki example as you want it. 
function respawnExplodedVehicle() 
    setTimer(respawnVehicle, 5000, 1, source) 
end 
addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), respawnExplodedVehicle)

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/RespawnVehicle

Still the same error man, sorry:

WARNING: [gameplay]/vehiclerespawn/explode.lua:2 Bad 'element' pointer @ 'respawnVehicle'(1)

Impossible, you must have something else destroyed the vehicle before it respawned.

What happen to the vehicle after it exploded?

The exploded vehicle (black leftovers) just disappear, no vehicle coming back at the place, what do you mean with "you must have something else destroyed the vehicle before it respawned?"

I just start the resource, search for a car, shoot it down, let it explode, and wait.. I also tried to switch gamemodes, doesn't work.

Exactly, the exploded vehicles does not disappear by default, you have other script destroyed the vehicle and that why it did not respawn and show you the error.

Then I think this script does that, it's a vehicle script so people can buy cars and spawn their cars whenever they want (server side lua of the script):

carShopMarker = createMarker (2133.59,-1149.29, 23.3, "cylinder", 3, 255, 0, 0, 127) 
carShopMarker2 = createMarker (562, -1270, 16, "cylinder", 2, 255, 0, 0, 127) 
carShopMarker3 = createMarker (-1954,299,34,"cylinder",2,255,0,0,127) 
carShopMarker4 = createMarker (-1663,1208,6,"cylinder",2,255,0,0,127) 
carShopMarker5 = createMarker (1946,2068,10,"cylinder",2,255,0,0,127) 
createBlipAttachedTo(carShopMarker,55,2,0,255,0,0,0,200) 
createBlipAttachedTo(carShopMarker2,55,2,0,255,0,0,0,200) 
createBlipAttachedTo(carShopMarker3,55,2,0,255,0,0,0,200) 
createBlipAttachedTo(carShopMarker4,55,2,0,255,0,0,0,200)

Thanks ALOT for helping me out! I removed that script, and now it works! Although now I need to figure out how to have both resources to run together :P I will come back here if I need help, but I'm gonna try myself first :)

Again, thanks alot!

If you understand what i've said you should know the if statement should be above the timer.
function destroyOnExplode () if 
    setTimer (destroyElement, 2500, 1, source) 
end 
addEventHandler ("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), destroyOnExplode)

Like this? By the way, I meant that I understood the part of the 'if' statement.
