Making a simple /flip command

Hey all today i am going to show you how to make a very simple /flip command.

Lets start then.

now today we will be using some very simple funtions such as

pawn Code:

IsPlayerInAnyVehicle

pawn Code:

GetPlayerVehicleID

pawn Code:

GetVehicleZAngle

and

pawn Code:

SetVehicleZAngle

Now let me explain how IsPlayerInAnyVehicle works.

pawn Code:

if(!IsPlayerInAnyVehicle(playerid))

This will check if the player is in a vehicle

And if he isn't in a vehicle we can return a message.

Like this:

pawn Code:

if(!IsPlayerInAnyVehicle(playerid)) return SendClientMessage(playerid,color,"You must be in a vehicle");

Okay i hope i explained that well.

Now i will explain about GetPlayerVehicleID

First will need to make a varaible

pawn Code:

new vehicleid;

Now theres the varaible made lets move on

now we can use GetPlayerVehicleID

[pawn]vehicleid = GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid);/pawn]

This gets the players vehicleid.

Now we're gonna move on to

GetVehicleZAngle

Right first we need to create a Float

pawn Code:

new Float:vangle;

now we can use GetVehicleZAngle

So lets explain how this works.

[pawn]GetVehicleZAngle(vehicleid,zangle);/pawn]

this gets the players vehicle.

Ok lastly we have

SetVehicleZAngle

Now this will Set the players vehicle back to the current position.

Ok

And when your finished your code should look like this.

pawn Code:

if (strcmp("/flip", cmdtext, true, 10) == 0)
    {   if(!IsPlayerInAnyVehicle(playerid)) return SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_RED2,"You must be in a vehicle.");
        {
        new vehicle;
        new Float:zangle;
        vehicle = GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid);
        GetVehicleZAngle(vehicle,zangle);
        SetVehicleZAngle(vehicle,zangle);
        SendClientMessage(playerid,color,"Vehicle succesfully flipped.");
        }

        return 1;
    }

Remmeber to define "color"

pawn Code:

if (strcmp("/flip", cmdtext, true, 10) == 0)
{   
        if(!IsPlayerInAnyVehicle(playerid)) return SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_RED2,"You must be in a vehicle.");
        {
             new vehicle;
             new Float:zangle;
             vehicle = GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid);
             GetVehicleZAngle(vehicle,zangle);
             SetVehicleZAngle(vehicle,zangle);
             SendClientMessage(playerid,color,"Vehicle succesfully flipped.");
        }
        return 1;
}

That won't work

pawn Code:

if (strcmp("/flip", cmdtext, true, 5) == 0)
{  
        if(!IsPlayerInAnyVehicle(playerid)) return SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_RED2,"You must be in a vehicle.");
        new vehicle;
        new Float:zangle;
        vehicle = GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid);
        GetVehicleZAngle(vehicle,zangle);
        SetVehicleZAngle(vehicle,zangle);
        SendClientMessage(playerid,color,"Vehicle succesfully flipped.");
        return 1;
}

this should work

Why would that work? You getting the zangle and then your setting the vehicle to the same zangle.. Lool

[Flo_White]

read the wiki
nearly the same code is there xD

i do not understand the z angle thing. but this works. i thought it would stay flipped but it didnt.

For those of you who don't understand:
setting a vehicle's z angle automatically puts it upright, so in essense this script just sets the car back to the position it was when you entered the command, except, it will be upright.
