Scale object

As far as I know there is no official way to do so.

However thanks to SetEntityMatrix - FiveM Natives @ Cfx.re Docs you can actually manipulate the scale. This does not affect the hitbox size and it can cause glitches.

E.g. scaling down a box and trying to climb on it can kill the player xD
Scaling vehicles doesn’t seem to work at all.

I am not gonna go into details on how to use that function to scale entities as doing it properly via the matrix provides a whole lot of math problems.

Code and Video of my initial tests

RegisterCommand("scale", function(src, args, raw)
	local entity = PlayerPedId()
	local _, _, upTemp = GetEntityMatrix(entity)
	
	Citizen.CreateThread(function()
		while (true) do
			Wait(0)
			local forward, right, up, position = GetEntityMatrix(entity)
			SetEntityMatrix(entity, forward, right, upTemp + vector3(0, 0, -0.8), position)
		end
	end)
end, false)
