lua sa-mp draw line

[6jorn_]

is it possible to draw a line from your own coordinates to the other player?

i have something like this now. 

before this I write give the id of myself and the other player so that it can draw a line from coordinate XY to XY but it doesnt work.

function gfx(arg,posX,posY)
 if #arg > 0 then
id = tonumber(arg)
result, ped = sampGetCharHandleBySampPlayerId(id)
if result then
myX, myY, myZ = getCharCoordinates(ped)
while true do
renderDrawLine(myX, myY, posX,posY, 2.0, 0xFF0000)
wait ( 0 ) 
end
end
end
end

You have to translate 3d coords into 2d coords, look up for worldToScreen functions on the internet, i bet theyre mostly on C++ but it's not hard to make em work on lua i guess

Already tried that before still shows no line

function gfx(arg,posX,posY,posZ)
	if #arg > 0 then
		id = tonumber(arg)
		result, ped = sampGetCharHandleBySampPlayerId(id)
		if result then
			myX, myY, myZ = getCharCoordinates(ped)
			local pedX, pedY = convert3DCoordsToScreen(posX,posY,posZ)
            local meX, meY = convert3DCoordsToScreen(myX, myY, myZ)    
			while result do
				renderDrawLine(pedX ,pedY ,meX, meY, 2, 0xFF00FF00)
				wait ( 0 ) 
			end
		end
	end
end

Wait, ill pull this out of my old LUA cheat.

I got it man its working but it only shows it for like 1 second. & I need something that keeps refresehing the coordinates of the given id or will that lag my game? I just have to type /find (playerId) now to refresh the coordinates

--info
 meposX, meposY, meposZ = getCharCoordinates(PLAYER_PED)
--_, getId = sampGetPlayerIdByCharHandle(PLAYER_PED)


local GET_COORDS_X, GET_COORDS_Y = convert3DCoordsToScreen(posX, posY, posZ)
local GET_COORDS_me_X, GET_COORDS_me_Y = convert3DCoordsToScreen(meposX, meposY, meposZ)  

for i = 1,60 do
renderDrawLine(GET_COORDS_X, GET_COORDS_Y ,GET_COORDS_me_X, GET_COORDS_me_Y, 2, 0xFF00FF00)
end

Make a while loop and put wait(0) at the top so it draws constantly.
