This function creates a projectile of the specified type on the specified coordinates.

Syntax

projectile createProjectile ( element creator, int weaponType [, float posX, float posY, float posZ, float force = 1.0, element target = nil, float rotX, float rotY, float rotZ, float velX, float velY, float velZ, int model ] )

Required Arguments

• creator: The element representing creator of the projectile. In case you want the projectile to be synced for everybody creator must be getLocalPlayer().
• weaponType: int representing the projectile weaponType (characteristics). Valid IDs are:

• posX,posY,posZ: float starting coordinates for the projectile. They are coordinates of creator by default.
• force: float representing the starting force of the projectile.
• target: element target used for heat seeking rockets.
• rotX,rotY,rotZ: float starting rotation for the projectile.
• velX,velY,velZ: float starting velocity for the projectile.
• model: Integer representing the projectile's model, uses default model for weaponType if not specified.

Returns

Returns a projectile element if projectile creation was succesfull. Returns false if unable to create a projectile (wrong weapon ID or projectiles limit was reached).

Example

This example makes a rocket minigun (minigun shooting with rockets).

-- This function gets triggered everytime player shoots.
function onClientPlayerWeaponFireFunc(weapon,ammo,ammoInClip,hitX,hitY,hitZ,hitElement)
	if weapon == 38 then -- if source is a local player and he uses minigun...
		if not createProjectile(getLocalPlayer(),19,getElementPosition(getLocalPlayer()),200) then -- then we either create a projectile...
			outputChatBox ( "Rocket minigun overheated! Give it a rest pal!", source ) -- or if projectile limit is reached we output player a chat message
		end
	end
end

-- Don't forget to add the onClientPlayerWeaponFireFunc function as a handler for onClientPlayerWeaponFire.
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerWeaponFire", getLocalPlayer(), onClientPlayerWeaponFireFunc)
