Example
In this example, I refer to an object in the mapfile with the ID "pirateship":
<object id="Pirate Ship" posX="-1627.319092" posY="128.543411" posZ="6.581001" rotX="-0.760854" rotY="2.421000" rotZ="0.851000" model="8493"/>
addEventHandler ( "onMapLoad", root, "onMapLoad" ) function onMapLoad ( name, root ) rx = 0 ry = 0 rz = 0 -- predefined varibles, for math code below pirateship = getElementByID ( "pirateship" ) --assign element named 'pirateship' in map file to varible end addCommandHandler ( "increaserotations", "chatboxShipRotateLeft" ) --On console command 'increaserotations', execute code function chatboxShipRotateLeft ( playerSource, commandName ) outputChatBox ( "Rotational values increased" ) rx = rx + 10 ry = ry + 10 rz = rz + 10 -- rotations = rotations + 10 setObjectRotation ( pirateship, rx, ry, rz ) --Changed rotation is applied end addCommandHandler ( "decreaserotations", "chatboxShipRotateRight" ) --Repeat and subtracted values to decrease rotations function chatboxShipRotateRight ( playerSource, commandName ) outputChatBox ( "Rotational values decreased" ) rx = rx - 10 ry = ry - 10 rz = rz - 10 setObjectRotation ( pirateship, rx, ry, rz ) end
