[REQUEST] Move nearest player into nearest car

FiveM Resource Development & Modding Discussion

How can I move nearest player into nearest car?

For example a cop can do /putIn and the nearest person gets put into the backseat of the nearest vehicle

I already do this on Cops_FiveM, try to look at it to make your command :slight_smile:

That is exactly what I did… Here is the code I used. Unfortuently It doesn’t work:

server.lua

AddEventHandler('chatMessage', function(source, name, msg)
  sm = stringsplit(msg, " ");
  if sm[1] == "/put" then
    CancelEvent()
    TriggerClientEvent('putInVeh', source)
  end
end)

function stringsplit(self, delimiter)
	local a = self:Split(delimiter)
	local t = {}

	for i = 0, #a - 1 do
		table.insert(t, a[i])
	end

	return t
end

client.lua

RegisterNetEvent( 'putInVeh' )
AddEventHandler('putInVeh', function ()
  local pos = GetEntityCoords(GetPlayerPed(-1),true)
  local veh = GetClosestVehicle(pos.x,pos.y,pos.z,100.00,0)
  if IsEntityAVehicle(veh) then
    for i=1,math.max(GetVehicleMaxNumberOfPassengers(veh),3) do
      if IsVehicleSeatFree(veh,i) then
        SetPedIntoVehicle(GetClosestPlayer(),veh,i)
      end
    end
  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
		local target = GetPlayerPed(value)
		if(target ~= ply) then
			local targetCoords = GetEntityCoords(GetPlayerPed(value), 0)
			local distance = GetDistanceBetweenCoords(targetCoords["x"], targetCoords["y"], targetCoords["z"], plyCoords["x"], plyCoords["y"], plyCoords["z"], true)
			if(closestDistance == -1 or closestDistance > distance) then
				closestPlayer = value
				closestDistance = distance
			end
		end
	end

	return closestPlayer, closestDistance
end

I’m not using GetClosestVehicle because it doesn’t work with some vehicle like cops vehicles.
You should use Raycast

5

Do you mind making that function for me?

6

Take this from Cops, it already working on it

7 
function getNearestVeh()
local pos = GetEntityCoords(GetPlayerPed(-1))
		local entityWorld = GetOffsetFromEntityInWorldCoords(GetPlayerPed(-1), 0.0, 20.0, 0.0)

		local rayHandle = CastRayPointToPoint(pos.x, pos.y, pos.z, entityWorld.x, entityWorld.y, entityWorld.z, 10, GetPlayerPed(-1), 0)
		local _, _, _, _, vehicleHandle = GetRaycastResult(rayHandle)
return vehicleHandle
end

would this work?

8

it should work yes, try and modify if it isn’t

9

Which number in that would be the radius?

10

it isn’t a radius but the distance in front of you (like a laser). And it is the value : 20.0

11

Did you get this to work?

/putin ?
