[help] taskvehicledrivetocoords

how do i get a vehicle to drive through table coords?

i have it as this.

local bRoutes = {
 { ["x"] = 1185.18, ["y"] = -310.64, ["z"] = 69.19}, -- market place
 { ["x"] = 375.62, ["y"] = 316.74, ["z"] = 103.27}, --clintin ave/liqor store
 { ["x"] = 220.79, ["y"] = 216.19, ["z"] = 105.4}, -- Pacific Standard Bank
 { ["x"] = -559.21, ["y"] = 208.14, ["z"] = 158.97}, -- Tequila-la
 { ["x"] = -1498.9, ["y"] = -392.95, ["z"] = 39.55}, -- Prosperity Street/liqor
 { ["x"] = -1392.79, ["y"] = -582.16, ["z"] = 30.11}, -- bahama mamas
}

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
ped = CreatePedInsideVehicle(veh, 4, GetHashKey("s_m_m_security_01"), -1, true, false)
local veh = GetHashKey('Stockade')

for i=1, #bRoutes, 1 do
	Citizen.Wait(5000)
    TaskVehicleDriveToCoord(ped, veh, bRoutes[i].x, bRoutes[i].y, bRoutes[i].z, 30.00, 1, vehicle, 786468, 1.0, true)
end
end)

can anyone help me with this as i still cant get it to drive thru the routes.

You probably will need to use this instead:
https://runtime.fivem.net/doc/natives/#_0x158BB33F920D360C
TASK_VEHICLE_DRIVE_TO_COORD_LONGRANGE

I needed to use this to have Peds drive from one coordinate to another across the map. Many AI tasks will stop running for the ped once a player is > 300m or so away, which might be the case with your code.

do u know if there a way to make them park at the coords in a table or do i need to put the coords in it seperately? ive gotten the taskvehicledrivetocoords to work but it doesnt stop at them

Not sure what you are trying to achieve. If you want them to park at location they arrive at, dont assign another task. Once they get there, they should just stop.

well, mine is driving through a list of table coords, but not stopping because it going thru the table coords of brote ={ coords 1, coords 2, coords 3,
}.

ddraigcymraeg · 2019-04-09T16:01:52.256Z

so you want them to park for some time when they get to a coordinate, then move on? You may need to script for that, detecting where they are at etc… setting a timout for the next task to be called.

alright cool i figure i have to do it one by one and have it check the coords that way.

ddraigcymraeg · 2019-04-09T17:55:57.647Z

this might be helpful to check if vehicles have made it to destinations:

EDIT:

– Checks if entity is within x/y/zSize distance of x/y/z. Last three are unknown ints, almost always p7 = 0, p8 = 1, p9 = 0
– @module native
– @submodule entity
– @see IS_ENTITY_AT_COORD
– @usage BOOL IS_ENTITY_AT_COORD(Entity entity, float xPos, float yPos, float zPos, float xSize, float ySize, float zSize, BOOL p7, BOOL p8, int p9);
– @param entity Entity
– @param xPos float
– @param yPos float
– @param zPos float
– @param xSize float
– @param ySize float
– @param zSize float
– @param p7 BOOL
– @param p8 BOOL
– @param p9 int

function IsEntityAtCoord(entity, xPos, yPos, zPos, xSize, ySize, zSize, p7, p8, p9) end

You could try to loop it through a thread, this is what I do to change the driving styles / speeds based on the location. While combining the below method, you could also use this native… Native Reference - Cfx.re Docs

function speedthefuckup()
	Citizen.CreateThread(function()
		while true do
			Wait(100)
			if IsEntityInArea(prisonBus, 410.566, -580.4334, 28.72797, 2014.971, 2564.957, 54.63419) then -- Highway
				-- print("Highway")
				SetDriveTaskCruiseSpeed(copPed, 50.0)
			elseif IsEntityInArea(prisonBus, 2021.39, 2571.746, 54.64583, 2426.741, 2857.89, 48.94244) then -- Prior to 68 Ramp + Ramp
				-- print("Ramp")
				SetDriveTaskCruiseSpeed(copPed, 12.0)
			elseif IsEntityInArea(prisonBus, 1978.467, 2641.469, 46.35927, 1828.94, 2608.301, 45.58876) then -- Entry to Bollingbrooke.
				-- print("Entry")
				SetDriveTaskCruiseSpeed(copPed, 8.0)
			end
		end
	end)
end

thanks for the examples it help alot.

Glad they help, just to be clear the reason why I put the thread in a function is because I call it in another section, I don’t want that thread running until called. I am unsure truthfully if there is any benefit to this but /shrug lol

so when doing is entity in area i dont need the second x,y,z of it is that like a radius.

You will need to do it if I recall correctly. I would try something like this…

Edit 1 : Looking at @ddraigcymraeg native suggestion of IsEntityAtCoord it might be more fitting to use that one. I would play with both, see which works best for you. Alternatively, I believe you may be able to get away with something like VDist2. What VDist2 would do is get the distance between two coords, if you are X meters away from the a coords (say the desired parking location), you could then task it to park at the desired coords.

I have a question, with TaskVehicleDriveToCoord is possible to make Ambulance or Police Unit turns Siren on? I wonder if this is include in some drivingStyle code.
