i need help with /findcar marker - Deal-or-die - 03.11.2010

ok, i have this problem with my /findcar cmd, it places the marker(ID 41) (https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/MapIcons) but when ever you mark somewhere else on the map it will hide your car again this can be quite annoying, id like to make this icon a red square on the mini-map and on the big map, and if possable make it so that when you walk into the marker it removes the marker rather than having to type /foundcar, thanks a heap

                return 1;

You cannot natively check if someone is near a marker on the radar. You would be much better off just setting a checkpoint at the position of the car, and when they enter the checkpoint, make it disappear.

Note: Checkpoints also show up on the radar as a red square (triangle if the target is above/below the current Z coordinate of the player), so it would work perfectly for what you want.

Exactly what i want! Now, How would i change that script i have to make it work like that? or mayby even start from scratch with that script, but then the rest of the script wouldn't work knowing my luck. :/

You have to have some sort of scripting knowledge to understand complete answers.

For setting the checkpoint: https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/SetPlayerCheckpoint

For disabling the checkpoint after entering: https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/OnPlayerEnterCheckpoint & https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/DisablePlayerCheckpoint

Yea, but this is setting a marker to a personal car. the wiki link you sent me was for setting a marker to a set location, in someway these are related but i just need it to set it to their car rather than a location, this is the original code from my script, to set a marker, which doesn't set any marker what so ever

SetPlayerMapIcon(playerid, 500 + playerid, X,Y,Z, 41, COLOR_RED);

any help hugely appreciated also i understand.
