This function gets position of the dummies contained in a vehicle model.

Syntax

float, float, float getVehicleModelDummyPosition ( int modelID, string dummy )

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Method: Vehicle.getVehicleModelDummyPosition(...)
Counterpart: setVehicleModelDummyPosition


Required Arguments

  • modelID: The model ID which you want to apply the change to
  • dummy: The dummy whose position you want to get

Allowed dummies

  • light_front_main: Primary front lights position.
  • light_rear_main: Primary rear lights position.
  • light_front_second: Secondary front lights position.
  • light_rear_second: Secondary rear lights position.
  • seat_front: Front seat position.
  • seat_rear: Rear seat position.
  • exhaust: Exhaust fumes start position.
  • engine: Engine smoke start position.
  • gas_cap: Vehicle gas cap position (shooting it will explode vehicle).
  • trailer_attach: Point at which trailers will be attached to vehicle.
  • hand_rest: Point at which the steer of a bike is held.
  • exhaust_second: Secondary exhaust position (for example in NRG-500)
  • wing_airtrail: Point from which air trail will show in airplanes, visible while in sharp turns.
  • veh_gun: Vehicle gun position (ex. Rustler).

Returns

Returns three floats indicating the position x, y and z of given dummy. It returns false otherwise.

Example

Given example will draw rectangle over every dummy in vehicle player is currently sitting it.

	local lx,ly,lz = getMatrixLeft(mat)
	local ux,uy,uz = getMatrixUp(mat)
	local model = getElementModel(veh)

	for i,dum in ipairs(dummies) do
		local v = {getVehicleModelDummyPosition(model, dum)}
		if v[1] ~= 0 or v[2] ~= 0 or v[3] ~= 0 then
			local px,py,pz = vx,vy,vz
			px = px+fx*v[2]+lx*v[1]+ux*v[3]
			py = py+fy*v[2]+ly*v[1]+uy*v[3]
			pz = pz+fz*v[2]+lz*v[1]+uz*v[3]

			local sx,sy = getScreenFromWorldPosition( px,py,pz,0,false )
			if sx then
				dxDrawRectangle( sx-10, sy-10, 20, 20, v[4] )
				dxDrawText(i-1, sx-5,sy-5,20,20,tocolor( 0,0,0 ))
