This function will blow up a vehicle. This will cause an explosion and will kill the driver and any passengers inside it.

Syntax

bool blowVehicle ( vehicle vehicleToBlow, [ bool explode=true ] )

Required Arguments

  • vehicleToBlow: The vehicle that you wish to blow up.

Returns

Returns true if the vehicle was blown up, false if invalid arguments were passed to the function.

Example

Click to collapse [-]
Example 1: Server and client

This example will blow up every vehicle in the game.

vehicles = getElementsByType ( "vehicle" )
for vehicleKey, vehicleValue in ipairs(vehicles) do
	blowVehicle ( vehicleValue )
end

It is worth noting that the same could be achieved with the following:

root = getRootElement ()
blowVehicle ( root )
Click to collapse [-]
Example 2: Server

This example will blow a player's vehicle when he enters the car, like a carbomb.

riggedVehicle = createVehicle(445, 0, 0, 5)
function blowVehicleEnter ( thePlayer, seat, jacked )
	--ENGINE START BOMB. 
	if seat == 0 then --check if the seat the player got into was id 0 - i.e. driver seat
		blowVehicle ( source ) --if it was, toast him
	end
end
addEventHandler ( "onVehicleEnter", riggedVehicle, blowVehicleEnter ) --trigger the function when a certain vehicle is entered
