Description

This function returns three floats containing the rotational position of the vehicle along the X, Y, and Z axes respectively as degrees. If this function does fail, it will return 'false'.

Syntax

float float float GetVehicleRotation ( vehicle vehicle )

This function also has three variants that allow you to retrieve data from just one of the three axis.

float GetVehicleRotationX ( vehicle vehicle )
float GetVehicleRotationY ( vehicle vehicle )
float GetVehicleRotationZ ( vehicle vehicle )

Required Arguments

  • vehicle: The vehicle whose rotation you want to retrieve.

Example

newcar = createVehicle ( 520, 1024, 1024, 1024 )
x, y, z = GetVehicleRotation ( newcar )

if (x)
 serverChat ( "Current rotation: ", x, " ," ,y ," ," ,z , "." )
end
