How to automatically perform object/building creationThis example shows you how to easily verify if any object model ID is non-dynamic, so it can be used with the createBuilding function, as long as it's outside within the map boundaries. This script will only work CLIENTSIDE due to createBuilding.
function createObjectOrBuilding(modelID, x, y, z, rx, ry, rz, interior, dimension) -- Dynamic object models will always have a physical properties group different than -1. local isNonDynamic = engineGetModelPhysicalPropertiesGroup(modelID) == -1 -- Buildings can't be placed outside dimension 0 local isNormalDimension = dimension == 0 -- Buildings can't be placed outside regular map boundaries local isInsideMapLimits = x >= -3000 and x <= 3000 and y >= -3000 and y <= 3000 local obj, bld if isNonDynamic and isNormalDimension and isInsideMapLimits then bld = createBuilding(modelID, x, y, z, rx, ry, rz, interior) assert(bld, ("Failed to create building with model ID %d at %f, %f, %f in interior %d"):format(modelID, x, y, z, interior)) else obj = createObject(modelID, x, y, z, rx, ry, rz, false) assert(obj, ("Failed to create object with model ID %d at %f, %f, %f"):format(modelID, x, y, z)) setElementInterior(obj, interior) setElementDimension(obj, dimension) end return obj or bld end -- This would be your object's model ID local modelID = 3556 -- This would be your object's position coordinates local x, y, z = 0, 0, 69 -- This would be your object's rotation coordinates local rx, ry, rz = 0, 0, 90 -- This would be your object's interior ID local interior = 0 -- This would be your object's dimension ID local dimension = 0 local success, element = pcall(createObjectOrBuilding, modelID, x, y, z, rx, ry, rz, interior, dimension) if not success then outputDebugString(("Failed to create object or building: %s"):format(tostring(element)), 4, 255, 25, 25) return end -- OPTIONAL: Then you can apply additional properties, like so: if getElementType(element) == "object" then setObjectScale(element, 1.69) setObjectBreakable(element, false) end setElementAlpha(element, 255) setElementCollisionsEnabled(element, true) setElementFrozen(element, false)
