  • theVehicle: The vehicle you wish to change the engine state of.
  • engineState: A boolean value representing whether the engine will be turned on (true) or off (false).

Serverside example

This example will turn off a vehicle's engine when the driver gets out of the car. 

function turnEngineOff ( theVehicle, leftSeat, jackerPlayer )
    -- if it's the driver who got out, and he was not jacked,
    if leftSeat == 0 and not jackerPlayer then
        -- turn off the engine
        setVehicleEngineState ( theVehicle, false )
    end
end
-- add 'turnEngineOff' as a handler for "onPlayerExitVehicle"
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerVehicleExit", getRootElement ( ), turnEngineOff )
