Matrix rays

[Drakath]

local t_Matrix = getElementMatrix (t_Data.ped) 
local int_RayX = t_Matrix[2][1] + t_Matrix[4][1] 
local int_RayY = t_Matrix[2][2] + t_Matrix[4][2] 
local int_RayZ = t_Matrix[2][3] + t_Matrix[4][3] 
for i = 1, 10 do 
local intSourceX, intSourceY, intSourceZ = t_PedPos[1], t_PedPos[2], t_PedPos[3] 
local intTargetX, intTargetY, intTargetZ = int_RayX, int_RayY, int_RayZ - 0.2 + i*0.2 
dxDrawLine3D (intSourceX, intSourceY, intSourceZ, intTargetX, intTargetY, intTargetZ, tocolor(255,0,0,255)) 
end 
  

This script draws 10 lines of 1 meter length. How can I increase that length to 3 meters?

Check the first example.

I'm still not sure which ray should I increase. I guess it's not the intTargetZ ray. Also, isn't 3 meters out of the matrix limits?

I believe you can do something like this.

local x,y,z = getPositionFromElementOffset(element,0,4,0) 
local int_RayX = x 
  
local int_RayY = y 
  
local int_RayZ = z

Thanks.
