Unbreakable glass [Solved]

In this resource arrow-object is glass. But glass is breakable object. And I want unbreakable arrows.

It is glass because when I use other objects, I can't make them transparent using shader that good as it works with glass.

When I use lua function to make it unbreakable it works bad, because I can stuck in this arrows and car collides badly with them.

So I have one solution in mind - attach normal dff to this arrows with alpha 0. But maybe someone knows better solution?

Maybe setObjectBreakable

Idk why it happens, maybe because object is too thin. In this case I must try to make a bit thicker collision and check it again. But I don't think that problem in this

I can show why setObjectBreakable function working bad for me on the video, but later

How about this?

addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", root, 
    function( ) 
        for _, object in ipairs( getElementsByType ( "object" ) ) do 
            if getElementModel( object ) == 3851 and isObjectBreakable( object ) then 
                setObjectBreakable( object, false ); 
            end 
    end 
);

or: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/On ... bjectBreak

addEventHandler("onClientObjectBreak", root, 
    function(attacker) 
        if getElementModel( source ) == 3851 then 
            cancelEvent() 
        end 
    end 
) 

This code will stay working when you start another map with the same objects etc.

This is a solid solution, without bugs. It only uses a little bit more memory, but you won't notice it.

Enjoy.

setObjectBreakable is bad, I stuck in object. onClientObjectBreak a bit better but still stuck

You could try to attach an army door to it and set the alpha to 0.

Well seems like this is the only solution

I creating objects this way:

addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, 
    function() 
        local objects = getElementsByType("object") 
        for k, object in ipairs(objects) do  
            if getElementModel(object) == 3851 then 
            setObjectBreakable(object, false) 
            local x, y, z = getElementPosition(object) 
            local rx, ry, rz = getElementRotation(object) 
            newObj = createObject(18000, x, y, z, rx, ry, rz) 
            setElementAlpha(newObj, 0) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 

But how can I destroy all this objects when resource stop?

destroyElement?

[AleksCore]

I need to getCreatedElements at first somehow

[Ren_712]

I'd suggest changing the object into more appropriate one. How about this:

-- Apply to world texture 
engineApplyShaderToWorldTexture ( shader, "bobo_2" ) 
  
-- Create object with model 4729 (billboard) 
local x,y,z = getElementPosition( getLocalPlayer() ) 
theObject = createObject ( 4729, x-15, y, z+3 ) 
setElementAlpha(theObject, 254) 

You might get some alpha issues. Might 'in an ugly way' fix them by exporting the object from gta3.img, then replacing ingame using mta engine functions - setting alpha transparency to 'true'. Or just create this object in front of the breakable one, set alpha to 0 so the wall is not visible.

Destroy elements?

The cleanest way is porbably setElementParent. When the map stops the children will be destroyed too.

Didn't know this function haha

Sounds great. But who(what element) must be parent in this case? If it should be map root, then how can I get it?

[IIYAMA]

The glass object would be enough.

Thanks man! The solution was so easy You helped very much, thanks!
