[xAbdulKariM]

hi
i am have problem with markers

the problem is if i am set marker size for example 100 and if i am used isElementWithinMarker or "onMarkerHit" or "onMarkerLeave"

will isElementWithinMarker return true and i am not in it

or events will run if i am not in it

and i m made function for solved the problem and Which it

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/IsElementInMarker

and this function

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/GetElementsInMarker

and i'm putting this functions in https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Useful_Functions Someone delete pages

and this pic explain what i'm talking about

the code :

testMarker = createMarker ( 2492 , -1666 , 12.5 , "cylinder" , 100 , 255 , 255 , 255 , 120 )
setTimer( function( )
outputChatBox ( tostring ( isElementWithinMarker ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) [ 1 ] , testMarker ) ) )
end , 100 , 1 )

but if you used my function will the result is

the code :

local testMarker = createMarker ( 2492 , -1666 , 12.5 , "cylinder" , 100 , 255 , 255 , 255 , 120 )
setTimer( function( )
outputChatBox ( tostring ( isElementInMarker ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) [ 1 ] , testMarker ) ) )
end , 100 , 1 )

i hope approval my functions

IsElementWithinMarker only works as a marker''ll be created and ped must be synced with client.

It works: TRUE
local marker=createMarker( 2045.56,1533.65,10.67-0.99, "cylinder" , 10, 255, 0, 0, 120 ) local ped=createPed( 10, 2045.56,1533.65,12.67 ) setTimer( function( ) outputChatBox( tostring( isElementWithinMarker( ped, marker ) ) ) end, 1000, 1 )

It doesn't work: FALSE
local marker=createMarker( 2045.56,1533.65,10.67-0.99, "cylinder" , 10, 255, 0, 0, 120 ) local ped=createPed( 10, 2045.56,1533.65,12.67 ) outputChatBox( tostring( isElementWithinMarker( ped, marker ) ) )

Concluding:
i don't know if it's a bug. For me, this function doesn't check the height difference of element what we actually check with the marker. I propose to add argument if we want check the height difference.

yeh if you used the codes in server side you should use setTimer
but client you don't need setTimer
Concluding:
if used setTimer or not whether client or server the result will return true
and events will run and functions isElementWithinMarker will return true and getElementsWithinMarker will return table is not empty
but you can use my functions and see the result
and for height it's not problem if you used isElementWithinMarker will fixed it
thank you for your post

@xAbdulKariM "anyone here?" > For that kind of thing you should join the #development channel in the MTA official discord server.

otherwise, you should just wait patiently till someone properly triages this issue and determines whether or not it's a bug.

hi again , i fixed the marker height in isElementInMarker

This isn't a bug, the collision of the marker is slightly bigger than the visual (default SA behaviour).

This difference obviously becomes more noticeable the larger the marker is.

Use colshapes if you want to be more accurate.
