Vehicle Respawner

[PrivateKiller]

Hello guys! I have another question for you! Now, its about car respawn... It won't delete empty spawned cars. It respawn only pre-spawned cars to their spawn point. But if we spawn a vehicle by admin or freeroam panel, and drive around, then we leave vehicle somewhere, it will respawn vehicle to the point, where I spawned it. But I want to delete all empty spawned vehicles. What I need to do?

  
local vehicles = getElementsByType ( "vehicle" )  
for k, vehicle in ipairs ( vehicles ) do 
if checkEmpty( vehicle ) then 
local seats = getVehicleMaxPassengers(vehicle) 
resetVehicleIdleTime ( vehicle )  
respawnVehicle ( vehicle ) 
end 
end 
end, 10000, 1) 
end  
end 
addEvent( "respawn", true ) 
addEventHandler( "respawn", getRootElement(), respawn ) 
  
function checkEmpty( vehicle ) 
local passengers = getVehicleMaxPassengers( vehicle ) 
if type( passengers ) == 'number' then 
for seat = 0, passengers do 
if getVehicleOccupant( vehicle, seat ) then 
return false 
end 
end 
end 
return true 
end

destroyElement 

Only that? And where I need to write this? Sorry, i don't have any experiences with scripting... Just tell me in which line, i need to put that. Thanks

[PrivateKiller]

But I don't want to destroy all spawned(by panel) vehicles. I want respawn only Pre-spawned vehicles. Vehicles which i spawn(or some1 else) will after respawn dissapear. That's what i want. Because, now, its respawn vehicle on their spawn point, or location when i spawned the vehicle. It also won't destroy already exploaded vehicles. Can anyone help me to slove this problem, because after some time, there is a lot of empty, blowed... vehicles on road, and you can't drive normaly.

[PrivateKiller]

Can someone told me where i need to put in "DestroyElement"? But i think that i must put something else to respawn only Pre-Spawned cars and to remove empty spawned cars (spawned by a player). Anyone please?

setTimer(destroyElement, 5000, 1, source) 

Can you tell me what that means (5000,1). If i change 5000 to 1000 what will be different. Is that idle time? Mabye, car must be empty more than 5min to dissapear? Idk. Please tell me what will be different if I change that. Thank you

5000 is the time after how much seconds the vehicle will be destroyed ( 5 seconds)

Okej, no errors at all now, but vehicle respawn to location where i spawned it in the same second when i write command to respawn in 10s... but i can change that. problem is that it won't destroy it. Its respawn vehicles to their spawn point

Okey, u are pro. I don't have experiences, but i can still edit scripts. I'm sorry, but in line 12 i can't see any "eof" or that end is too close to word: "function"
