Trailer is not being attached. - WooTFTW - 08.08.2011

The trailer is streamed, i wonder why this code doesn't work.

The trailer creating and attaching function.

pawn Code:

public OnPlayerEnterDynamicCP(playerid, checkpointid)
{
    if(checkpointid == Trucker_CP_Id[playerid])
    {
        if(IsPlayerInAnyVehicle(playerid))
         {
            new     vehicleid;
            new     createdvehicle;
                
            vehicleid = GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid);

            if(VehicleInfo[vehicleid][vjob] == JOB_TRUCKER)
            {
                createdvehicle = CreateTrailer(vehicleid, floatround(Truck_Pickups[Trucker_ID[playerid]][3]), Truck_Pickups[Trucker_ID[playerid]][0], Truck_Pickups[Trucker_ID[playerid]][1], Truck_Pickups[Trucker_ID[playerid]][2]);
                printf("%i _ %i", vehicleid, floatround(Truck_Pickups[Trucker_ID[playerid]][3]));
                SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_YELLOW, "((Tagad Jums ir jādodas piegādāt kravu.))");
                AttachTrailerToVehicle(createdvehicle, vehicleid);
            }
        }
    }
    return true;
}

The trailer gets created, but its not getting attached..

Could you show us your CreateTrailer function please?

You cannot instantly attach the trailer. The trailer must first stream in for the player, then AttachTrailerToVehicle can be used.

Here's how I (and I assume, most people) bypass the issue:

pawn Code:

// Where you create it
SetTimerEx("attachTrailer", 1000, false, "ii", createdvehicle, vehicleid);

// The timer
forward attachTrailer(trailerid, vehicleid);
public attachTrailer(trailerid, vehicleid)
    return AttachTrailerToVehicle(trailerid, vehicleid);

Thanks for the answer.
I won't be using AttachTrailerToVehicle(), i found a workaround.
