GetDistanceBetweenPoints3D
From Multi Theft Auto: Wiki
This function returns the distance between two 3 dimensional points using the pythagorean theorem. This involves a square root operation and is thus computationally expensive.
Syntax
Required Arguments
- x1: The X position of the first point
- y1: The Y position of the first point
- z1: The Z position of the first point
- x2: The X position of the second point
- y2: The Y position of the second point
- z2: The Z position of the second point
Returns
Returns a float containing the distance between the two points as a float. Returns false if an argument passed was invalid.
