This is pretty neat.

Vespura:

This script probably won’t be maintained.

Will you still handle PRs?

bugfixes for sure. new features, not sure. depends on the feature i guess.

Forgot to put this in the license, but you’re free to create a fork of it and host/release your fork. That’s the only exception where you don’t need my permission to release it somewhere else. Granted you keep the copyright & license notice.

Trying to attach a car to a trailer Discussion

I am currently trying to attach a car to a trailer using code from a towing script Here So far I have looked everywhere and tried everything but I can get it. Here is the code (Just a snip of where it is used since everything else works): local playerped = PlayerPedId() local vehicle = GetVehiclePedIsIn(playerped, true) local trailer = GetVehicleTrailerVehicle(vehicle) AttachEntityToEntity(targetVehicle, trailer, GetEntityBoneIndexByName(trailer 'misc_a'), 0.0 + xoff, -1.5 + yoff, 0.0 + zof…

YAY THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! I have been looking for something like this for a while!

GlitchyBoi · 2018-11-29T10:42:55.987Z

Awesome

Maybe implement it with NativeUI? If there was a menu to select from nearby vehicles like when attaching things via Simple Trainer, that may be handy

darkzygb · 2018-11-29T14:30:51.725Z

Does this verk wiv ESX and VRP at the sametim3?

Maxmov · 2018-11-29T18:46:11.291Z

This is awesome!!

I put it in my server, and it works brilliantly. With one of our custom trucks however, the car glitches into the cab, and then it launches both vehicles into the air. Is there a way to offset the location on the flatbed at all?

I absolutely love this tow system, you did an amazing job!

I know you aren’t too interested in keeping up with this, but if you could direct me to which lines control the vehicle attachment area, I would be very appreciative. I tried messing with some lines last night, but didnt have any luck. It might be vehicle specific. Here’s a little preview:

One major issue i have found addon cars are attatched under the towtruck not sure why.

Vespura · 2018-11-30T08:08:39.728Z

In that case the addon models are broken.

benzon83 · 2018-11-30T15:54:44.889Z

it’s about every single one of them with a normal tow script no issues.

Vespura · 2018-11-30T17:54:07.836Z

Not sure. Usually happens when x/y/z are mixed up on the model.

grizzlyrp.com · 2018-12-05T01:06:17.397Z

All the tow trucks I’ve tried to do this with, the car is either under or to the right or left side of the towtruck, not actually on the tow truck. Is there somewhere I need to set the coords for the truck??

Vespura · 2018-12-05T04:46:51.320Z

I’ve tested this with a couple of addon/replacements and with all default trailers/trucks in the game and it works just fine. Might be custom vehicles you’re trying to tow or custom tow vehicles that could be fucking this up. You shouldn’t need to change any config at all.

grizzlyrp.com · 2018-12-05T04:50:15.437Z

All I did was add it to server, add to resource, then spawn in the default towtruck and the vehicles spawn under it when you tow, so no idea what I’m doing wrong lol

Vespura · 2018-12-05T04:53:35.570Z

I have no clue. Works fine for me. Default and replace/addon cars.
