{{client function}}
__NOTOC__
{{New items|3.0135|1.3.5|
This function returns an [[element]] that corresponds to the game camera
}}
{{Note|Using attachElements with the camera and the main player can interfere with movement}}
{{Note|Using setElementPosition/Rotation/Matrix on the camera element will automatically clear any target set with [[setCameraTarget]]}}
==Syntax==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
element getCamera ()
</syntaxhighlight>

===Returns===
Returns an [[element]] that corresponds to the game camera

==Example==
This example attaches (fixes) the camera to a vehicle.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
local cam = getCamera()
setElementPosition( cam, 0,0,0 ) -- Clear camera target
local myVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer)
attachElements( cam, myVehicle, 0,-4,2, -20,0,0 )

CreateFire

2015-02-17T01:01:05Z

MuLTi:

__NOTOC__
{{Client function}}

Creates a patch of fire that will spread a bit and die out after a while. Because it's a client side only function, other players won't see it, so custom events or custom objects will be needed to make a fire visible to some players.

==Syntax==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">bool createFire ( float x, float y, float z [, float size = 1.8 ] )</syntaxhighlight>

===Required Arguments===
*'''x, y, z:''' the coordinates when the initial patch of fire will be created.

===Optional Arguments===
*'''size:''' a float value indicating the size of the initial patch of fire. It will also make the fire to stay alive more or less time.

===Returns===
Returns ''true'' if successful, ''false'' if bad arguments were passed or the limit of active fires was reached. There can be a maximum of 60 active fires.

== Example ==

This example adds a /fire command, which creates a patch of fire in the position of the player that types it.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
local function burn(commandName, theSize)
if tonumber(theSize) then
local x, y, z = getElementPosition(getLocalPlayer())
createFire(x, y, z, tonumber(theSize))
outputChatBox("Burn, buuuuurn >:]")
else
outputChatBox("Syntax: /fire <size>")
end
end
addCommandHandler("fire", burn)

DxCreateRenderTarget

2014-05-13T15:33:30Z

MuLTi: Added a warning for a mistake I found

{{Client function}}
__NOTOC__
This function creates a render target element, which is a special type of [[texture]] that can be draw on with the dx functions. Successful render target creation is not guaranteed, and may fail due to hardware or memory limitations.

To see if creation is likely to fail, use [[dxGetStatus]]. (When '''VideoMemoryFreeForMTA''' is zero, failure ''is'' guaranteed.)
{{Tip|It is highly recommended that [[dxSetTestMode]] is used when writing and testing scripts using dxCreateRenderTarget.}}
{{Note|Render targets are usually cleared when the player minimizes MTA (i.e. alt-tab). See [[onClientRestore]] for details on when to restore any fixed content.}}
{{Warning|Using '''onClientPreRender''' to render on a render target will not work.}}

==Syntax==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
element dxCreateRenderTarget ( int width, int height [, bool withAlpha = false ] )
</syntaxhighlight>

===Required Arguments===
*'''width :''' The width of the texture in pixels.
*'''height :''' The height of the texture in pixels.
*'''withAlpha:''' The render target will be created with an alpha channel.

===Returns===
Returns a [[texture]] element if successful, ''false'' if the system is unable to create a render target.

'''You should always check to see if this function has returned false.'''

==Example==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot,
function()
myRenderTarget = dxCreateRenderTarget( 80, 100 ) -- Create a render target texture which is 80 x 100 pixels
end
)

addEventHandler( "onClientRender", root,
function()
if myRenderTarget then
dxSetRenderTarget( myRenderTarget ) -- Start drawing on myRenderTarget
dxDrawText ( "Hello", 10, 20 ) -- Draw a message
dxSetRenderTarget() -- Stop drawing on myRenderTarget

dxDrawImage( 50, 50, 100, 100, myRenderTarget ) -- Now use myRenderTarget as a material and draw it lots of times
dxDrawImage( 150, 350, 150, 100, myRenderTarget )
dxDrawImage( 250, 250, 100, 150, myRenderTarget )
dxDrawImage( 350, 30, 150, 150, myRenderTarget )

__NOTOC__
{{Server client function}}
This function sets the position of an element to the specified coordinates.

<div style="background: #FF7070; border: 3px solid #FF0000;">
'''Attention:''' Do not use this function to spawn a [[ped]]/[[player]]. It will cause problems with other functions like [[warpPedIntoVehicle]]. 
Use [[spawnPlayer]] and [[createPed]] instead.

==Syntax==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
bool setElementPosition ( element theElement, float x, float y, float z [, bool warp = true ] )

===Required Arguments===
*'''theElement:''' A valid [[element]] to be moved.
*'''x:''' The x coordinate of the destination.
*'''y:''' The y coordinate of the destination.
*'''z:''' The z coordinate of the destination.

===Optional Arguments===
*'''warp:''' teleports players, resetting any animations they were doing. Setting this to ''false'' preserves the current animation.

===Returns===
Returns ''true'' if the function was successful, ''false'' otherwise.

*'''theVehicle:''' The vehicle you wish to force the ped into

===Optional Arguments===
{{OptionalArg}}
*'''seat:''' An integer representing the seat ID. ''0'' represents the driver, any higher represent passenger seats.

===Returns===
Returns ''true'' if the operation is successful, ''false'' otherwise.
