How to attach players to vehicles...

It still seemed wrong even in that case when I used it.

Like say you jumped on the front of the car it'd glue you a metre off the left of it or something similar. I fixed it by changing the math used but it's strange no-one else has mentioned it.

could you post the fixed function so others can update their scripts please?

Yes, please Twig. The other coder for NR has been trying to figure the math out for a long time.

local vrZ = math.rad(360 - vrZ) 
local offsetZ = pZ-vZ               
local offsetX = math.cos(vrZ)*(pX-vX) - math.sin(vrZ)*(pY-vY)  
local offsetY = math.sin(vrZ)*(pX-vX) + math.cos(vrZ)*(pY-vY) 

That works exactly as far as I've seen. Don't expect me to explain it to you

If anyone has managed to produce some method of allowing the player to move while on the vehicle without them being thrown off it I'd appreciate a look.
