RU/CreateWater
From Multi Theft Auto: Wiki
Creates an area of water.
The largest possible size of a water area is 5996×5996. Also be aware that the function will change all x and y coordinates you specify into even integer numbers if necessary: this is because of a limitation of San Andreas.
Syntax
water createWater ( float x1, float y1, float z1, float x2, float y2, float z2, float x3, float y3, float z3 [, float x4, float y4, float z4 ] [, bool bShallow = false ] )
Required Arguments
For creating a water quadrant:
- x1, y1, z1: position of bottom left (south-west) corner.
- x2, y2, z2: position of bottom right (south-east) corner.
- x3, y3, z3: position of top left (north-west) corner.
- x4, y4, z4: position of top right (north-east) corner.
For creating a water triangle:
- x1, y1, z1: position of bottom/top left corner.
- x2, y2, z2: position of bottom/top right corner.
- x3, y3, z3: position of top/bottom corner.
Optional Arguments
- bShallow: ask arc_
Returns
Returns a water element if successful, false otherwise. The water element can be repositioned with setElementPosition and destroyed with destroyElement.
