Spotlight Toggle

DieselDave · 2017-12-23 14:28:57 UTC

Hey guys been trying to use spotlights as headlights so i can use blackout too i tried to put it on a button press like the headlights “h” but wheni press H to turn on the spot lights they just flash white (the 255,255,255 one) i have tried a few things that just made it stop and had someone else look and had the same result i am new at this so probably not the best but could anyone help keep the light on but want it as a toggle so can be switched off

client.lua

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
  while true do
   Citizen.Wait(1)
     vehicle = GetVehiclePedIsUsing(GetPlayerPed(-1))
       anycarX, anycarY, anycarZ = table.unpack(GetEntityCoords(vehicle, true))
         dirX, dirY, dirZ = table.unpack(GetEntityForwardVector(vehicle))
           if IsPedSittingInAnyVehicle(GetPlayerPed(-1)) then
              if IsControlJustPressed(1, 74) then
                 if DrawSpotLight(anycarX, anycarY, anycarZ, dirX, dirY, dirZ, 255, 255, 255, 125.0, 1.0, 1.0, 20.0, 0.95) then
                      DrawSpotLight(anycarX, anycarY, anycarZ, dirX, dirY, dirZ, 0, 0, 0, 125.0, 0, 1.0, 0, 0.95)
			    end
            end
        end
    end
end)`

@DieselDave

I got bored and improved it. You can use it if you want to

nice can already tell its gonna be better

Another minor improvement.

Added automatic xenon adaptation
Added distant - light

Damn that’s nice! Mind if I use it for a police system I am working on?

Flatracer · 2017-12-24 14:40:15 UTC

Take it for whatever you want, just credit me if you use it.

Scott_UK · 2017-12-24 14:41:23 UTC

Yes sir! Thanks.
