Get Targeted Ped

[fichtenwalder]

Hi,

 

currently i write a Script with the C++ Scripthook from aru. I want to get the speed of the Targeted PED.

 

Now My Problem: How can i get the targeted PED? There is no Native Function. Only to get If I Targeting a Ped.

 

I got the tip from another Thread, that i have to check all PEDs if i aiming them. But there is the next Question. How can I get all PED's???

 

 

Im a Newbie in C++ and this Scripthook. But I'm not programming Noob (I habe al ot of experience with VB.NET). I can't use the .NET Scripthook because the IVMP-Client crash's with that. IN SP the .NET Scripthook is perfectly.

 

 

Thanks für good replys

Ped closPed, targetPed;GetClosestChar(x, y, z, 1, 2, &closPed);if(IsPlayerAimingAtChar(GetPlayer(), closPed)     closPed = targetPed;

 

try somethink like this

[fichtenwalder]

i think with that function i only know if i aiming the closest PED.

 

I Think i need a loop to get it.

 

Or i change the radius from GetClosestChar();

What do you think about that idea?

Using GetClosestChar will never give you all peds. You have to access the CPool of peds, addresses are CPool+iterator+4 and size of CPool is CPool+8 as far as I remember.

Thats the beauty of the .net hook

What do you mean?

That hazard has already put things like that in easy to use functions.

with ScirptHook it s better in MP...try this:

 

GetCharCoordinates(GetPlayerPed(), &x1, &y1, &z1);SetTimerA(0);     bool search = true;     while(search)     {         int netid++;     	if(netid>15000)     	{       search = false;        netid = 0;      	}     	GetPedFromNetworkId(netid, &ped);          	if(DoesCharExist(ped) && ped != GetPlayerPed())     	{       if(IsCharInArea2D(ped, x1+20, y1+20, x1-20, y1-20, 0))       {       	search = false;       }     	}

There is actually a very simple way to do it using Native GET_CLOSEST_CHAR. You need to use flags to get get all peds. Note the flags are not completely documented, but you can find the numbers in HazardX's scripthook. It may not be fastest way, but its easy, and it works. Loop the function, get all the valid Handles all into a simple collection (easy way to prevent duplicating by simple logic) where u can easily check in every tick wheter some of them are being targetted. Make sure that the handles are valid before using them. Also, you could even create timer for each ped, so it will be more precise, but possibly more CPU heavy. Note that depending on your rig, game spawn and destroys ped handles. Please, use GtaModding.com to find exact answers to your questions about these natives.

Sorry to doublepost. But as LMS said you should ask HazardX for his solution, which seems to be the faster, and maybe in your case, much better solution to use. You could find an answer how to build this function even without HazardX, but I am not allowed to tell you how. Forum rules.

You need to use flags to get get all peds.

Okay, what are these flags???

[Kucikuc24]

x, y, z, radius, unknown, unknown, *ped

[Rapier]

Kucikuc24, I mean what are the numbers... Or what combination of numbers to get any ped. You understand?
