[HELP] moveObject

[herecomestheking]

Hi. My lua knowledge is very limited so please bare with me.

I've been trying to get the "moveObject" function to work but so far I have not been successful.

I've read this but no matter what I try it just won't work.

This is how it looks at the moment.

road1 = createObject (3458, 3543.55078125, -1537.4228515625, 498.25500488281, 0, 0, 255) 
  
bool moveObject ( object road1, int 2000, 
                  float 3543.55078125, float -1537.4228515625, float 502,  
                 ) 
end 

Basically I want it to create an object at an exact position and then move it to another exact position. Thanks for the help.

road1 = createObject (3458, 3543.55078125, -1537.4228515625, 498.25500488281, 0, 0, 255) 
  
moveObject ( road1, 2000, 
                  3543.55078125, -1537.4228515625, 502, 
                 ) 

^ this would fix your code.

road1 = createObject (3458, 3543.55078125, -1537.4228515625, 498.25500488281, 0, 0, 255) 
  
setTimer(function  
moveObject ( road1, 2000, 
                  3543.55078125, -1537.4228515625, 502, 
                 ) 
end, 5000, 1) 
  
setTimer(function() 
local ox,oy,oz = getElementPosition(road1) 
if ox == 3543.55078125 and oy == -1537.4228515625 and oz == 502 then 
moveObject(road1, X, Y, Z ) -- replace X,Y,Z 
end 
end, 30000, 1 
) 

^ this is a rough code, but it would move the object after 5000 mili-seconds to the position you set, and after 30000 mili-seconds the code would see if it is in the place that you put it at and if it returns true then it would move to another place (X,Y,Z)

Thank you for your reply.

I tried that last script but it did not work.

I don't believe there is something wrong with the script but when I try this one alone

road1 = createObject (3458, 3543.55078125, -1537.4228515625, 498.25500488281, 0, 0, 255) 

nothing happens. No object was created when I ran my map.

I did save the script in the correct folder so I don't know what's wrong.

Can you post your meta.xml file?

[herecomestheking]

Okay. I fixed my meta.xml file. If I only use the createObject line, the object loads just fine.

If I add that script you wrote no object loads. I tried both. The one I wrote that you fixed and then the one you wrote.

If you're still interested in my meta.xml file, you can find it here.

The name of the script is road1 so that's correct.

herecomestheking - Check this,

road1 = createObject (3458, 3543.55078125, -1537.4228515625, 498.25500488281, 0, 0, 255) -- your gate 
addCommandHandler('close', -- type close to move it , 
function() -- function 
 moveObject (road1, 2000, 3543.55078125, -1537.4228515625, 502) --- move it  
  end -- close  
  ) -- close
