the button would be nice to know

3

Oh well. Press U to throw the anchor, and press Y to pull it up again

4

This could be a use full release…(some might say)

5

Just a thought, you could try tossing in something like…

GetEntityHeightAboveGround(entity)

Then use something like…

if GetEntityHeightAboveGround(veh) > 10 then
pNotifyThing("You can't anchor mid air.")
end```
6

Yeah but the problem with that one is. The “aboveground” is the seabottom, which is different from all around the ocean in GTA V. So sadly that does not work

7

Alright so swap over and use GetEntityHeight, then just try to figure out what the trigger point could be during testing.

Updated to version 1.01

  • Can’t throw anchor when you are in a submarine or on jetski
9

What do you mean by that?

10

mate please use correct natives instead of freezing an entity, here is the correct native:

SET_BOAT_ANCHOR #
// 0x75DBEC174AEEAD10 0xA3906284
// SetBoatAnchor
void SET_BOAT_ANCHOR(Vehicle vehicle, BOOL toggle);

and

IS_PED_IN_ANY_BOAT #
// 0x2E0E1C2B4F6CB339 0x1118A947
// IsPedInAnyBoat
BOOL IS_PED_IN_ANY_BOAT(Ped ped);

and

_GET_BOAT_ANCHOR #
// 0x26C10ECBDA5D043B 
// GetBoatAnchor
BOOL _GET_BOAT_ANCHOR(Vehicle vehicle);

Are you sure those anchor natives work? They’ve never worked for me whenever i tried to keep a boat from moving…

12

“Mate” I tried with these natives. If you can improve the script, feel free to do that instead :slight_smile: mate

13

if you ask it nicely, i can do that here you go :stuck_out_tongue:

local anchored = false
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
	while true do

		Wait(0)
		local ped = GetPlayerPed(-1)
		if IsControlJustPressed(1, 182) and not IsPedInAnyVehicle(ped)  then
			local boat  = GetVehiclePedIsIn(ped, true)
			if not anchored then
				SetBoatAnchor(boat, true)
			else
				SetBoatAnchor(boat, false)
			end
			anchored = not anchored
		end
	end
end)

EDIT: 182 is “L” key

14

ofc they do :slight_smile: see my code above :hugs:

tha anchor only works if you’re out of the boat / motor not running

Try to “park” it out in the open. Then it just fly away. It’s a weak anchor with this native i think. Thats why i choose to freeze the entity instead

18

you got discord ? i can show you live version :slight_smile:
i did try middle in the sea does stay on its place

19

here i made little video, here you can see clearly when not anchored boat moves alot, when anchored not anymore, i did put text so you can see when i puch the L button
proof video anchor :slight_smile:
