Function
setPedOnFire
Sets a ped on fire or puts it out. A player really starts burning in their game: the fire is visible and they lose health until the fire goes out by itself or until setPedOnFire(player, false). For NPCs the value is stored for scripts. isPedOnFire for a player shows whether their ped is really burning.
Syntax
bool setPedOnFire(ped ped, bool value)Arguments
pedped- A player or an NPC.
valuebooltrue= burning,false= not.
Returns
true on success.
Example
addCommandHandler("podpal", function(player)
setPedOnFire(player, true)
end)Notes
Fire goes out by itself. As in the game, fire on a ped goes out after a while, so isPedOnFire then returns to false. On the client you can set your own ped on fire with the same function.
