Remove vehicles

[Bonsai]

Hey peeps,

I got a little problem with removing vehicles of dead players. It seems to work fine as long as the vehicles did not explode.

But if that happened, it will stay until resource is restarted.

function enterVehicle(player) 
  
    playerVehicle[player] = source 
  
end 
addEventHandler("onVehicleEnter", root, enterVehicle) 

function kill(p) 
  
if p then source = p end 
unbindKey(source, "enter", "down", "suicide") 
  
if isPedDead(source) == false then 
    killPed(source) 
    destroyElement(source) 
end 
  
if playerVehicle[source] then 
    setTimer(destroyPlayerVehicle, 5000, 1, playerVehicle[source]) 
end 
  
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerQuit", root, kill) 
addCommandHandler("suicide", kill) 
addEvent("onRequestKillPlayer", true) 
addEventHandler("onRequestKillPlayer", root, kill) 
  
  
function destroyPlayerVehicle(vehicle) 
  
    destroyElement(vehicle) 
  
end 

This is my code and most of the time its working good.

But sometimes dead peds don't disappear either.

Is it even possible to destroy dead peds by destroyElement?

killPed only seems to kill them, but they aren't disappearing after that.

function kill(p) 
      
        if p and isElement(p) and getElementType(p) == "player" then source = p end -- here was your bug. 
        unbindKey(source, "enter", "down", "suicide") 
          
        if isPedDead(source) == false then 
            killPed(source) 
            if getElementType(source) ~= "player"  then 
                destroyElement(source)-- you can't destroy players 
            end 
        end 
        local vehicle = playerVehicle[source]  
        if isElement(vehicle) then 
            setTimer(destroyPlayerVehicle, 5000, 1, vehicle) 
        end 
      
    end 
    addEventHandler("onPlayerQuit", root, kill) 
    addCommandHandler("suicide", kill) 
    addEvent("onRequestKillPlayer", true) 
    addEventHandler("onRequestKillPlayer", root, kill) 
      
      
    function destroyPlayerVehicle(vehicle) 
        if isElement(vehicle) then 
            destroyElement(vehicle) 
        end 
    end

Ahh, the quitType.. of course. Sorry.

Thanks for that.

About this destroyElement, I read somewhere that peds are destroyed that way.

But sometimes the peds still don't disappear and keep doing some dying animation.

np.

P.s: didn't we ever met in game? (I remember somebody with that nick)

[Bonsai]

Depends, if you were using a different nick maybe, at least I don't remember this one

[IIYAMA]

I saw your nick inside a stealth server. (probably GCC or gta.ru)

Are you German?

[Bonsai]

Yeah, but actually I only play on DDC from time to time

[IIYAMA]

oh wait.

I also played in DDC under the nick Alex-Rider. (not any more)
