'bodyPart' IDs for onClientVehicleCollission

[J.S.]

I'm just wondering if anyone has a list of the bodyPart IDs returned by onClientVehicleCollision. There doesn't seem to be any documentation on this and using debug lines doesn't seem to be helpful as it is just continually returning 0's. So if you do have the IDs, please do share as it's fairly important to what I'm working on. Thanks

As far I know these are valid bodyparts???? -- if i'm right.

I think he's talking about the vehicle body parts, not the ped body parts. The best way I found to check this is to write a simple script that outputs what body part you hit in the chat, so you can check where on the car these parts correspond to.

addEventHandler("onClientVehicleCollision", root,  
function(element, force, part) 
    if element then 
        if getElementByType("vehicle") then 
            outputChatBox("Body part was "..part) 
        end 
    end 
end 
) 

As for the body parts themselves, it seems pretty difficult to tell where they are. Hitting a car head on will often trigger 2-3 body parts at once (i think they were 1,3 and 17).

EDIT: you might also want to remove that if statement "if getElementByType("vehicle") then", as that is in there to make it only trigger when hitting other vehicles.

Good luck!

I appreciate your response Driggero, unfortunately I tried that before I posted this thread and it didn't give very definitive results (mostly just returned 0's). I'm fairly surprised that the IDs aren't documented anywhere.

The reason for that is that you can't hit arms with a vehicle. Arms don't have collisions for vehicles or objects.

Just like many other bodyparts.

Maybe you noticed this: When you go sprint against a wall, 40% of your head is in the wall.

Well here is one with a car ^^

On the other hand everything can be calculated.....

collisionX/Y/Z: the position the collision took place

normalX/Y/Z: the surface normal of the hit object
