Why use floatpower? Just multiply it by itself.

Re: GetPlayerSpeed, No timers-Player Speed instantly - Gamer_Z - 04.09.2009

why use GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid)... if the player is in a vehicle the player and vehicle are both moving lol....
btw will this work?:

pawn Код:

floatsqroot(Vx*Vx + Vy*Vy + Vz*Vz);

stock GetPlayerSpeed(playerid,bool:kmh) // by misco edit by gamer_z
{
  new Float:Vx,Float:Vy,Float:Vz,Float:rtn;
  GetPlayerVelocity(playerid,Vx,Vy,Vz);
  rtn = floatsqroot(Vx*Vx + Vy*Vy + Vz*Vz);
  return kmh?floatround(rtn * 100 * 1.61):floatround(rtn * 100);
}

i read everyones post and combined with mine idea lol..

Omg... Square of sum is not the same as sum of squares.

Just a note: GetPlayerVelocity returns as 0 when in a vehicle so you need to use GetVehicleVelocity to calculate a vehicles velocity

I'm using it for a speedo, but if i drive down the road full speed then turn left it goes back to like 20mph lol.

By previous you mean the ones before Get...Velocity?

If so, yes they were both slower and inaccurate.

The old one got the players position with GetPlayerPos and then set a timer which got their pos in the next few seconds and calculated how far they traveled in a the timer time, thus getting the speed. However the problem with it was if you got lag and other issues with timers and teleporting it can be buggy at times.

GetPlayerVelocity returns 0 when you are in a vehicle.
Hence use GetVehicleVelocity.

Bump.

I used this, and when I turn at some places, my speed increases unrealisticly much.

Like from 60 to 100 in a second.

It seems to be when turning north and when turning south, but I'm not sure.
