Nearest player distance help needed

Hi and firstly thanks for reading.
Im trying to make a revive script the instead of using /revive (id) from anywhere on the map requires you to be near the player your trying to help. It will also play the cpr animation.

I have the animation working im just looking for guidance on how i would go about checking if you are near a player and having the animation play then the person is revived.
Id imagine a similar function is used in the cuff scripts but im not sure. Any help is appreciated and if some one wants to join forces to get this out to the community let me know.
Thanks

Right. There are lot of these floating around if you look for them.

LUA - Nearby player Discussion

Example on how to get closest player RegisterCommand('revive', function(source, args, rawCommand) local t, distance = GetClosestPlayer() if(distance ~= -1 and distance < 5) then TriggerServerEvent('ems:revive', GetPlayerServerId(t)) end end) function GetClosestPlayer() local players = GetPlayers() local closestDistance = -1 local closestPlayer = -1 local ply = GetPlayerPed(-1) local plyCoords = GetEntityCoords(ply, 0) for index,value in ipairs(players) do…

As for getting it to play after the animation, you could get a rough timing of how long the animation is and have the script Wait(X-Amount of seconds) before it does the revival part and then double check proximity to the player and if they are still injured.
