Set an object's altitude.
Execution:
call
Groups:
Object Manipulation

Syntax

Syntax:
[target, height, position, mode] call BIS_fnc_setHeight
Parameters:
target: Object - affected object
height: Number - (Optional, default 0) height to set
position: Position - (Optional, default position target) position to place the target with calculated height
mode: String - (Optional, default "ROADWAY") can be:
Return Value:
Boolean - true when done

Alternative Syntax

Syntax:
[height, mode] call BIS_fnc_setHeight
This syntax uses this and is therefore meant to be used in init fields. Not to be used in MP.
Parameters:
height: Number - (Optional, default 0) height to set
mode: String - (Optional, default "ROADWAY") can be:
Return Value:
Boolean - true when done

Examples

Example 1:
// will place player's vehicle on "myHeightMarker", 50m above terrain [vehicle player, 50, getMarkerPos "myHeightMarker", "ATL"] call BIS_fnc_setHeight;
Example 2:
// will set the "this" object 50m above sea level at its position // use where "this" has a value like in an init field [50, "ASL"] call BIS_fnc_setHeight;
