Force aP engine off

[illmatic]

aP is the player and im wanting to force his engine off and on.

aP action ["ENGINEON"]
~3
aP action ["ENGINEOFF"]
~3
aP action ["ENGINEON"]
~3
aP action ["ENGINEOFF"]
~3
aP action ["ENGINEON"]
~3
aP action ["ENGINEOFF"]

these commands dont force him too... any ideas   :-X

if ur wondering why i want the engine on and off, its because of engine failure.

Try:

aP action ["ENGINEON", vehicle aP]

Not sure if you can use this command for Player controlled units.

try instead:

planename setfuel 0

and

planename setfuel 1

to simulate engine failure

Hmmm........I should read the whole post properly.

I forgot aP was the player.

, with the fuel method i already tried it, the engine doesnt turn back on once you refil the fuel.

I think engineon is a vehicle situation, not a unit, so try
vehicle player engineon true
vehicle player engineon false

or may require:
vehiclenameengineon true(and false)

I know, people are vehicles too but in this situation, vehicle actually does mean vehicle!

[Planck]

vehicle player engineon true
vehicle player engineon false

This does work, however if the player presses forward the engine will not stay off

The engine will be switched off again once the player releases his forward key, provided he is still withih the trigger area.............I used a trigger to switch engine off and the player init field to switch it on at the beginning.

Maybe in combination with setfuel 0 this will work
