This function sets the position of an element to the specified coordinates.

[[|link=|]] Warning: Do not use this function to spawn a player. It will cause problems with other functions like warpPedIntoVehicle. Use spawnPlayer instead.

Syntax

bool setElementPosition ( element theElement, float x, float y, float z [, bool warp = true ] )  

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Method: element:setPosition(...)
Variable: .position
Counterpart: getElementPosition


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.
