Scripting/Squirrel/Functions/FindVehicle

This finds a vehicle from an id and returns the pointer

Syntax

vehicle FindVehicle( int id )

Arguments

• id - The ID of the vehicle to find

Example

Now we will create a simple spawncar command. Type /c spawn VehicleID. The vehicle will be moved to the player, that uses this command. The FindVehicle function is here very important.

function onPlayerCommand( player, cmd, text ) {

    if ( cmd == "spawn" )
    {
        local veh = FindVehicle( text.tointeger() );
        if ( !veh ) PrivMessage( "Error: Wrong ID of the vehicle.", player );
        else {
            PrivMessage( "Spawning vehicle " + veh + ".", player );
            veh.Pos = Vector( ( player.Pos.x + 2 ), ( player.Pos.y + 1 ),( player.Pos.z - 1.12 ) );
        }
    }

}

Notes

The functions PrivMessage, vehicle.Pos and call onPlayerCommand were used in in this example. More info about them in the corresponding pages.
