Pair: getWaterVertexPosition

Manual Review Required

Please finish this page using the corresponding Old Wiki article. Go to Contribution guidelines for more information.

Sets the world position of a corner point of a water area.

Note

X and Y positions will be changed to an even integer. i.e. -2, 0, 2, 4 etc.

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

  • Method:water:setVertexPosition(...)

Syntax 

bool setWaterVertexPosition ( water theWater, int vertexIndex, int x, int y, float z )
Required Arguments
  • theWater: the water element of which to change a vertex.
  • vertexIndex: the index of the vertex to move. Values range from 1 to 4 for water quads, and 1 to 3 for triangles.
  • x: the X coordinate to set for the vertex.
  • y: the Y coordinate to set for the vertex.
  • z: the Z coordinate to set for the vertex.

Returns

  • bool: value

Returns true if successful, false otherwise.

Code Examples

This example creates a water whose vertices 2 and 4 go up and down when someone uses the '/water' command.

waterSquare = createWater (1418, -625, 91.8, 1436, -625, 91.8, 1418, -613, 91.8, 1436, -613, 91.8)
local waterVertices = false


function waterUp ()
    if waterVertices == false then
        setWaterVertexPosition (waterSquare, 2, 1436, -625, 94.8)
        setWaterVertexPosition (waterSquare, 4, 1436, -613, 94.8)
        waterVertices = true
    else
        setWaterVertexPosition (waterSquare, 2, 1436, -625, 91.8)
        setWaterVertexPosition (waterSquare, 4, 1436, -613, 91.8)
        waterVertices = false
    end
end
addCommandHandler("water", waterUp)
