Keep player in the car

[Gallardo9944]

Hello.

I've got a really dumb question, but how can I keep the player in the vehicle in any situation? So he stays in the vehicle even if he dies still. Cancelling onClient(Player)VehicleExit/onVehicleStartExit don't really help with that.

Thanks.

i dont think its possible, its built in gta so that when u die inside a car that u fall out the door, unless u explode in car

though u could try random crazy experiments like freezing the player, or setting position or something, or maybe cancel event of death and "create your own" death system(like fake the death, but still consider it death)?

Do you mean keep the corpse of the player in the car? If so, just use createPed and warpPedIntoVehicle.

[Gallardo9944]

Tried warping the ped instantly, it works, but the transition is rather visible even for an unarmed eye. Cancelling death didn't seem to help at all. Those falling peds are so annoying. There has to be a way to trick that...

I don't need to check if a player is in vehicle, i need to keep the player there. Forever. Without falling out when died standing still.

[Dimmitry007]

function test ( theplayer, seat, jacked ) 
   cancelEvent () 
end 
addEventHandler("onVehicleExit", getRootElement(), test )

function test ( theplayer, seat, jacked ) 
   cancelEvent () 
end 
addEventHandler("onVehicleExit", getRootElement(), test ) 

Same stuff, the player falls out of the vehicle when he dies.

i don't understand you want the player dead body in the car?

[Dimmitry007]

i don't know if this will work if it will work then if the player die he will get teleported to 0, 0, 0 position

function test ( player ) 
   setElementPosition ( player , 0, 0, 0 ) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerWasted", getRootElement(), test )

its impossible to keep player in car, only possible thing u could do is fake it but it wont look real, try suggesting this as feature on mantis(feature to block player getting out)

[but i believe that that request would be ignored like other ones since it's not a bug, but a request, and they're busy]

This can work,

function keepPlayerInVehicleOnDie() 
   removeEventHandler("onVehicleExit", getRootElement(), keepPlayerInVehicleOnDie) 
   removeEventHandler("onVehicleStartExit", getRootElement(), keepPlayerInVehicleOnDie) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerWasted", getRootElement(), keepPlayerInVehicleOnDie) 

Not sure.

setVehicleHandling animGroup "GetOutF" could maybe have worked, but it was disabled because

Get works, set is disabled due to people not knowing this property was vehicle-based and caused crashes.

This can work,

function keepPlayerInVehicleOnDie() 
   removeEventHandler("onVehicleExit", getRootElement(), keepPlayerInVehicleOnDie) 
   removeEventHandler("onVehicleStartExit", getRootElement(), keepPlayerInVehicleOnDie) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerWasted", getRootElement(), keepPlayerInVehicleOnDie) 

Not sure.

onVehicleExit can't be canceled.

onVehicleExit can't be canceled.

My bad.

onVehicleExit can't be canceled.

though you can reverse it

Try something like this:

Client:

addEventHandler("onClientPreRender",root, 
function () 
    local vehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer) 
    if vehicle and  
        local i, firstPlayer = next(getVehicleOccupants(vehicle))  
        if firstPlayer == localPlayer then 
            if getElementHealth(vehicle) < 250 and not isVehicleDamageProof (vehicle) then 
                setVehicleDamageProof(vehicle,true) 
                triggerServerEvent("blowUpVehicle",vehicle) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end) 
  

Server:

addEvent("blowUpVehicle",true) 
addEventHandler("blowUpVehicle",root, 
function () 
    if isElement(source) then 
        setVehicleDamageProof(source,true) 
        local x,y,z = getElementPosition(source) 
        createExplosion (x,y,z,0,client) 
        local players = getVehicleOccupants(source) 
        if players and next(players)  then 
            for i,player in pairs (players) do 
                killPed(player) 
                -- add here peds or something like that. 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end)

How about setting an uninterruptible animation onto the player? I guess that would work, but can't really test it myself at the moment.

What about attachElements? cold you attach the ped to the car?
