Ok so..
I've created a /work cmd that creates a checkpoint at the nearest shop..
this is at my cmd:

pawn Код:

for(new n=0; n<sizeof(WorkStations); n++)
    {
        number++;
        x = WorkStations[n][0];
        y = WorkStations[n][1];
        z = WorkStations[n][2];
        cdist = GetDistanceToPoint(playerid, x, y, z);
        if(number == 0)
        {
            distance = cdist;
            nearest = n;
        }
        else if(distance > cdist)
        {
            distance = cdist;
            nearest = n;
        }
    }

and that's the stock:

pawn Код:

const Float:INF_FLOAT=Float:0x7F800000;

stock Float:GetDistanceBetweenPoints(Float:x1,Float:y1,Float:z1,Float:x2,Float:y2,Float:z2)
{
    return floatadd(floatadd(floatsqroot(floatpower(floatsub(x1,x2),2)),floatsqroot(floatpower(floatsub(y1,y2),2))),floatsqroot(floatpower(floatsub(z1,z2),2)));
}

stock Float:GetDistanceToPoint(playerid,Float:x1,Float:y1,Float:z1)
{
    if (IsPlayerConnected(playerid))
    {
        new Float:x2,Float:y2,Float:z2;
        GetPlayerPos(playerid,x2,y2,z2);
        return GetDistanceBetweenPoints(x1,y1,z1,x2,y2,z2);
    }
    return INF_FLOAT;
}

however it always creates the checkpoint at the first coordinate in my "WorkingStation" list...
what's wrong?

You mixed the GetDistanceBetweenPoints formula up a bit

pawn Код:

floatadd(floatadd(floatsqroot(floatpower(floatsub(x1,x2),2)),floatsqroot(floatpower(floatsub(y1,y2),2))),floatsqroot(floatpower(floatsub(z1,z2),2)));
// floatsqroot( floatpower ( a, 2 ) ) = a again
// So this is just (x1 - x2 + y1 - y2 + z1 - z2)

It should look like this ( with using * instead of floatpower, becuase it is faster)

pawn Код:

floatsqroot( (x1 - x2) * (x1 - x2) + (y1 - y2) * (y1 - y2) + (z1 - z2) * (z1 - z2) )

[Sascha]

so... now I've got this and it still doesn't work...

pawn Код:

stock Float:PointToPoint(Float:x1,Float:y1,Float:z1,Float:x2,Float:y2,Float:z2)
{
    return floatsqroot( (x1 - x2) * (x1 - x2) + (y1 - y2) * (y1 - y2) + (z1 - z2) * (z1 - z2) );
}

pawn Код:

dcmd_work(playerid, params[])
{
    if(!strlen(params))
    {
        new Float:x1, Float:x2, Float:y1, Float:y2, Float:z1, Float:z2;
        new Float:distance, nearest, Float:cdist, number;
        if(IsPlayerInAnyVehicle(playerid)) GetVehiclePos(GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid), x1, y1, z1);
        else GetPlayerPos(playerid, x1, y1, z1);
        number = 0;
        for(new n=0; n<sizeof(WorkStations); n++)
        {
            number++;
            x2 = WorkStations[n][0];
            y2 = WorkStations[n][1];
            z2 = WorkStations[n][2];
            cdist = PointToPoint(x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2);
            if(number == 0)
            {
                distance = cdist;
                nearest = n;
            }
            if(distance > cdist)
            {
                distance = cdist;
                nearest = n;
            }
            }
        SetPlayerCheckpoint(playerid, WorkStations[nearest][0], WorkStations[nearest][1], WorkStations[nearest][2], 2.00);
        SendClientMessage(playerid, YELLOW, "*Drive to the checkpoint and walk into the \"Money Icon\"");
    }
    return 1;
}

and it still always shows the first location

Can a distance be smaller than 0 ? No -> check your distance declaration

And read ******'s post again if you want to improve your code

[Sascha]

oh feck... lol thanks I didn't notice...
I should've defined the distance before increasing the "number"...
thanks for this "hidden" correction:P
