Cancel vehicle explosion

[AMARANT]

Is there a way to cancel vehicle blowing up?

Is there a way to cancel vehicle blowing up?

onClientVehicleExplode 
-- or 
onVehicleExplode and cancelEvent() 

[#RooTs]

client.lua

addEventHandler("onClientVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), function() 
    cancelEvent() 
end) 

or

server.lua

addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), function() 
    cancelEvent() 
end) 

other example

addEventHandler ( "onClientVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), cancelEvent ) --  predefined variable "cancelEvent" 

[ViRuZGamiing]

client.lua

addEventHandler("onClientVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), function() 
    cancelEvent() 
end) 

or

server.lua

addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), function() 
    cancelEvent() 
end) 

other example

addEventHandler ( "onClientVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), cancelEvent ) --  predefined variable "cancelEvent" 

[b]Note:[/b] Remember, this event can not be canceled.

[b]Note:[/b] Remember, this event can not be canceled.  

no ?. how to explain my friends have used this event?

[#RooTs]

maybe this ?

addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), function() 
    local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(thePlayer) 
    setVehicleDamageProof(theVehicle, true) 
end)

I need to disable blowing up when a vehicle is lying on the roof and starts to burn.

[Bonus]

Try this:

  
addEventHandler ( "onClientVehicleDamage", root, function ( ) 
      -- If you want it to take damage, but not explode -- 
      -- if getElementHealth ( source ) < 300 then         -- dunno if 300 is good, test it 
            local rx,ry = getElementRotation ( source ) 
            if rx > 90 and rx < 270 or ry > 90 and ry < 270 then  
                  cancelEvent() 
                  -- If it was burning before -- 
                  if getElementHealth ( source ) < 300 then 
                        setElementHealth ( source, 300 )       -- dunno if 300 is good, test it 
                  end 
            end    
      --end 
end ) 

I think onClientVehicleDamage should be triggered when the vehicle gets damage when its on the roof.

respawn the vehicle with all the data since you cant avoid rockets etc..

[Bonus]

You can't avoid rockets with onClientVehicleDamage?

If you want others to do still damage you can ask if there is an attacker or weapon.

What do you mean? Just respawn the vehicle?

[Captain Cody]

onClientVehicleDamage

fixVehicle ( vehicleValue )

As soon as it gets damaged use fixVehicle, it will stop it from blowing up and what not.

simple; onVehicleExplode, use a setTimer to avoid your new vehicle from being blown up right away, then use getElementModel, getVehicleColors, getAllElementData and getElementPosition from the old vehicle, set the onto the new one and tada. As if the explosion never happened.

I will try it, thank you for your response!

I can spawn a vehicle after blowing up at the right coordinates and make it damage proof. But before that the vehicle needs to be blow up anyway. And I'd like to completely remove blowing up. Is this possible? Here is my code what I've got:

function onVehiclesExplode() 
local model = getElementModel(source) 
local x, y, z = getElementPosition(source) 
local rx,ry,rz = getElementRotation(source) 
destroyElement(source) 
setTimer(spawnAfterExplode,50,1,model,x,y,z,rx,ry,rz) 
end 
addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), onVehiclesExplode) 
  
function spawnAfterExplode(model,x,y,z,rx,ry,rz) 
local newvehicle = createVehicle(model,x,y,z,rx,ry,rz) 
setVehicleDamageProof(newvehicle,true) 
end

onClientVehicleDamage

fixVehicle ( vehicleValue )

As soon as it gets damaged use fixVehicle, it will stop it from blowing up and what not.

--- This --- When missiles hit vehicle the vehicle does not explode that instant, instead there is a small delay, if you use fix vehicle as soon as the vehicle gets damaged, then the vehicle won't go boom.

If you're not running an RP server, sure. If it's a RP script, good luck saving all the panel states, door states, wheel states, current damage and set it all back when someone hits the vehicle with their fists, an AK or something like that.

Even by saying that, in an RPG server players are most likely going to ram each other, f*ck up their friends with guns and sh*t. You're going to use fixVehicle every single bullet? That's going to be insanely CPU killing.

end 
addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), onVehiclesExplode) 
  
function spawnAfterExplode(model,x,y,z,rx,ry,rz) 
local newvehicle = createVehicle(model,x,y,z,rx,ry,rz) 
setVehicleDamageProof(newvehicle,true) 
end 

It should be removed by destroyElement. Maybe add a timer for that one too, or first set the dimension to something random, and delete it after 1 second.

Oh yes, forgot about that "posted both of those at 1 am wasn't exactly thinking about that atm, when the vehicle health drops below a certain point, use repair vehicle, as to prevent it from exploding, yet still allowing it to be hit, rammed etc without repairing every time.

As an easier thing; just make the vehicle damage proof when the health drops below 400.

[Captain Cody]

Well that certainly works to, I really need to stop commenting at 1-7 am

Yes it really works but how about server CPU if I use it server-side with "onVehicleDamage"?

[Captain Cody]

If you do the function correctly it won't hurt CPU, onVehicleDamage, then have the function receive current health, if it is below 400 then continue else end.
