The source of this event is the vehicle that exploded.

Example

Example 1

vagosVehicle = nil

-- This will get called when the vagos vehicle explodes
function onVagosVehicleExplode ()
	outputChatBox ( "VAGOS VEHICLE DESTROYED!" )
end

-- This is called when THIS resource starts
function onThisResourceStart ()

	-- Create the vagos vehicle. A van.
	vagosVehicle = createVehicle ( 522, 0, 0, 5 )

	-- Add its explode handler. When this car explodes, onVagosVehicleExplode is called
	addEventHandler ( "onVehicleExplode", vagosVehicle, onVagosVehicleExplode )
end

--Add the resource start event
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement ( getThisResource () ), onThisResourceStart )

Example 2: This will show the name of any vehicle that blew up:

function notifyAboutExplosion()
    -- source is the element that triggered the event and can be used in other events as well
    outputChatBox(getVehicleName(source) .. " just blew up")
end

-- by using getRootElement() as root, it works for any vehicle
addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", getRootElement(), notifyAboutExplosion)
