Required Arguments

  • theVehicle: The vehicle you wish to change the fuel tank explodable state of.
  • explodable: A boolean value representing whether or not the fuel tank will be explodable.

Returns

Serverside example

This example will make vehicles' fuel tanks explodable for 10 seconds after they're entered. 

-- create a table to keep track of vulnerable vehicles
-- so we don't set the state-reset timer twice when reentering a vulnerable vehicle
local isVulnerable = {}

-- this function makes a vehicle vulnerable and sets a timer to unset it in 10 seconds
function setVehicleVulnerable ( theVehicle, enteredSeat )
    -- we'll ignore vehicles that are already vulnerable.
    if not isVulnerable[theVehicle] then
        -- if they're getting into the driver seat
        if enteredSeat == 0 then
            -- make the fuel tank explodable
            setVehicleFuelTankExplodable ( theVehicle, true )
            -- flag this vehicle as vulnerable
            isVulnerable[theVehicle] = true
            -- make it non vulnerable in 10 seconds
            setTimer ( unsetVehicleVulnerable, 10000, 1, theVehicle )
        end
    end
end

-- this function makes a vehicle not vulnerable
function unsetVehicleVulnerable ( theVehicle )
    -- make the fuel tank unexplodable
    setVehicleFuelTankExplodable ( theVehicle, false )
    -- remove the vulnerable flag
    isVulnerable[theVehicle] = nil
end

-- add the 'makeVehicleVulnerable' function as a handler for "onPlayerVehicleEnter"
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerVehicleEnter", getRootElement ( ), setVehicleVulnerable )
