Description

Description:

Same as surfaceType, but returns texture path to ground texture as string.

ⓘ

The texture returned is of the ground, even if there is a road at that position. To get road texture use getRoadInfo command.

Groups:

Positions

Syntax

Syntax:

surfaceTexture [x, y, z or useLayerMask]

Parameters:

x: Number - world x coordinate of the position

y: Number - world y coordinate of the position

since 2.18

z or useLayerMask: Number or Boolean - When a number is provided (Z in 3D positions), it is ignored. When a boolean is provided, it defines whether the layer mask should be used. Using the layer mask is more accurate but slightly slower.

The "dirt" texture is defined using a layer mask. The "concrete" texture is the primary surface texture.

Return Value:

String - Surface texture

Examples

Example 1:

private _groundTexture = surfaceTexture getPosATL player;

Example 3:

private _pos = getPosATL player; _pos set [2, true]; // use layer mask private _groundTexture = surfaceTexture _pos;
