SA-MP Script: Detect collision between two cars - p3t3r313 - 10.09.2010

Hi, my name is Peter and i am new arround here.

I would like to know if it is possible (and how) to detect when a car hits another car and return its id.

Thanks in advance!

Natively, no.
However, you can make a couple of workarounds (which most likely won't be 100% precise although), for example, in a timer you could keep track of vehicles' healths, velocitys, and positions, and using that data try to 'guess' when two vehicles could have collided.

OnVehicleUpdateDamage gets called for all vehicles, except motorbikes.

I suppose with a bit of calculating, you could work out if two vehicles hit each other. More accurate in my opinion than a timer.

Too early to code lol Here is what I would do :

OnVehicleDamage - Store ID, tickcount and pos to a [vehicleid] array
Each time it gets called, check if it's < 10 ticks (guess), if so, IsPlayerInRangeOfPoint (saved pos), return stored ID.

Thanks a lot!

@Rac3r That's exactly what i was thinking, but thank you for the callback, i didn't find it.

Promise i'll post my gamemode when it's done. Thanks again!
