This function checks if there are obstacles between two points of the game world, optionally ignoring certain kinds of elements.

Syntax

bool isLineOfSightClear ( float startX, float startY, float startZ, float endX, float endY, float endZ, [ bool checkBuildings, bool checkVehicles, bool checkPeds, bool checkObjects, bool checkDummies, bool seeThroughStuff, bool ignoreSomeObjectsForCamera, element ignoredElement ] )

Required Arguments

  • startX: The first point's world X coordinate.
  • startY: The first point's world Y coordinate.
  • startZ: The first point's world Z coordinate.
  • endX: The second point's world X coordinate.
  • endY: The second point's world X coordinate.
  • endZ: The second point's world X coordinate.

Optional Arguments

NOTE: When using optional arguments, you might need to supply all arguments before the one you wish to use. For more information on optional arguments, see optional arguments.

  • checkBuildings: Allow the line of sight to be blocked by GTA's internally placed buildings, i.e. the world map.
  • checkVehicles: Allow the line of sight to be blocked by vehicles.
  • checkPeds: Allow the line of sight to be blocked by peds, i.e. players.
  • checkObjects: Allow the line of sight to be blocked by objects.
  • checkDummies: Allow the line of sight to be blocked by GTA's internal dummies. These are not used in the current MTA version so this argument can be set to false.
  • seeThroughStuff: Allow the line of sight to be blocked by translucent game objects, e.g. glass.
  • ignoreSomeObjectsForCamera: Allow the line of sight to be blocked by certain objects.
  • shootThroughStuff: Allow the line of sight to be blocked by certain entities.
  • ignoredElement: Allow the line of sight to pass through a certain specified element.

Returns

Returns true if the line between the specified points is clear, false if there's an obstacle or if invalid parameters are passed.
