The output doesn't work and I do not know what is the reason ( I want it to be visible for the player who triggered the function only )

function DestroyRS( element ) 
  
   if ( isElement(element) and getElementType (element) == "vehicle" ) and not ( getElementModel ( element ) == 431 ) then 
    local x,y,z = getElementRotation ( element ) 
        
   if isElementWithinColShape ( element, LineRS ) and (z >= 90) and (z <= 270) then 
    outputChatBox ( "* Destroyed", element, 255, 0, 0, true  ) 
        destroyElement( element ) 
  
 end 
end 
 end

element is vehicle as you have just checked it at line 3. You can't output to vehicle :mrgreen:.

outputChatBox ( "* Destroyed", element, 255, 0, 0, true  )

If you have used the right event, i guess you should use source.

outputChatBox ( "* Destroyed", source, 255, 0, 0, true  )

            RST [ element ] = setTimer ( DestroyRS , 5000, 0, element ) 
     
  end 
 end 
end 
  
 

Can you tell me how can I fix it?

You have infinite repetitions timer that why it was give you bad argument, when you destroy the vehicle you should destroy the timer and remove it from the table too.

The output doesn't work?

I am not sure if source is who triggered the function DSC, can you show how function DSC is called?

I guess you will need to pass the source from DSC function to the timer.

Also the IF statement in function DSC is unnecessary you can use elseif.

Hmm what about this function?

It dose destroy the vehicle but killTimer doesn't work

function DestroyRS( element ) 
  
   if ( isElement(element) and getElementType (element) == "vehicle" ) and not ( getElementModel ( element ) == 431 ) then 
    local x,y,z = getElementRotation ( element ) 
        
   if isElementWithinColShape ( element, LineRS ) and (z > 90) and (z < 270) then 
   Check [ element ] = setTimer ( destroyElement , 4000, 1, element ) 
    
   if isElementWithinColShape ( element, LineRS ) and not (z > 90) and not (z < 270) and isTimer ( Check [ element ] ) then 
    killTimer ( Check [ element ] ) 
   outputChatBox ( "* Check", root, 255, 0, 0, true  )   
    
 end 
 end 
 end 
end

   outputChatBox ( "* Check", root, 255, 0, 0, true  )   
    
 end 
 end 
 end 
end

This Function will be triggered every 1 second to check for the rotation and destroy but I want it that if the rotation changed while the timer is running then it will be destroyed.

I have another function like with different rotation and it's working fine but this doesn't work well and I do not know what is the reason :S

That's won't help I just want to fix my code :S

Nvm i got what you mean, try this:

function DestroyRS(element) 
    if (isElement(element) and getElementType (element) == "vehicle") and not (getElementModel(element) == 431) then 
        local x, y, z = getElementRotation(element) 
        if isElementWithinColShape(element, LineRS) then 
            if (z > 90) and (z < 270) then 
                if not isTimer(Check[element]) then 
                    Check[element] = setTimer(function(element) destroyElement(element) Check[element] = nil end, 4000, 1, element) 
                end 
            else 
                if isTimer(Check[element]) then 
                    killTimer(Check[element]) 
                    Check[element] = nil 
                    outputChatBox("* Check", root, 255, 0, 0, true)  
                end 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end

            end 
        end 
    end 
end

Thanks it's working now :D

I want it for the player who triggered the function only

I need to know how this function is called.

function DSC( element )

it start on colshapehit

function DSC( element ) 
  
   if ( isElement(element) and getElementType (element) == "vehicle" ) and not ( getElementModel ( element ) == 431 ) then 
   if isElementWithinColShape ( element, LineLS ) then 
  
            timers [ element ] = setTimer ( Destroy , 6500, 0, element ) 
            timers [ element ] = setTimer ( DestroyLS , 500, 0, element ) 
 end     
end      
   if ( isElement(element) and getElementType (element) == "vehicle" ) and not ( getElementModel ( element ) == 431 ) then 
   if isElementWithinColShape ( element, LineRS ) then 
     
            timers [ element ] = setTimer ( Destroy , 6500, 0, element ) 
            timers [ element ] = setTimer ( DestroyRS , 500, 0, element ) 
     
  end 
 end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onColShapeHit", resourceRoot, DSC )

You need to get who is drive the vehicle.

local player = getVehicleController(element) 


function DestroyRS(element) 
    if (isElement(element) and getElementType (element) == "vehicle") and not (getElementModel(element) == 431) then 
        local x, y, z = getElementRotation(element) 
        local player = getVehicleController(element) 
        if isElementWithinColShape(element, LineRS) then 
            if (z > 90) and (z < 270) then 
                if not isTimer(Check[element]) then 
                    Check[element] = setTimer(function(element) destroyElement(element) Check[element] = nil end, 4000, 1, element) 
                end 
            else 
                if isTimer(Check[element]) then 
                    killTimer(Check[element]) 
                    Check[element] = nil 
                    if player then 
                        outputChatBox("* Check", player, 255, 0, 0, true) 
                    end 
                end 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end

                    end 
                end 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end

How can I make it output the message when the timer finish and the vehicle is destroyed?
