How can I position the camera in front of the vehicle? - Next - 2021-07-18
I'm trying to make a system where I need to position the camera in front of the vehicle so that it "points" to the vehicle without setting the coordinates in an array, having a "radius" using a GetVehicleModelInfo function.
I managed to do a function where I can get the front of the vehicle using some calculations. But I can't point the camera at the vehicle at the right angle.
PHP Code:
GetVehicleFront(vehicleid, &Float:x, &Float:y)
{
new Float:a, Float:fSize[3];
GetVehiclePos(vehicleid, x, y, a);
GetVehicleZAngle(vehicleid, a);
GetVehicleModelInfo(GetVehicleModel(vehicleid), VEHICLE_MODEL_INFO_SIZE, fSize[0], fSize[1], fSize[2]);
x += (/* radius using fSize? (about 7.5) */ * floatsin(-a, degrees));
y += (/* radius using fSize? (about 7.5) */ * floatcos(-a, degrees));
return 1;
}
btw, is this function correct?

PHP Code:
stock Float:GetPosInFrontOfVehicle(vehicleid, &Float:x, &Float:y, Float:distance)
{
new Float:a;
GetVehiclePos(vehicleid, x, y, a);
GetVehicleZAngle(vehicleid, a);
x += (distance * floatsin(-a, degrees));
y += (distance * floatcos(-a, degrees));
return a;
}
PHP Code:
new Float:Pos[3];
GetVehiclePos(GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid), Pos[0], Pos[1], Pos[2]);
SetPlayerCameraLookAt(playerid,Pos[0], Pos[1], Pos[2]);
GetPosInFrontOfVehicle(GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid), Pos[0], Pos[1], 7.0);//If you want the camera to stay behind the vehicle, just put a negative value, for example: -7.0
SetPlayerCameraPos(playerid, Pos[0], Pos[1], Pos[2]+2.0);//Here you adjust the height of the camera, example: +2.0

Do you want the camera to be in front of the vehicle, and look at the vehicle?
