NEON APIManaged fire

Available in Neon, not standard MTA

Returns the strength multiplier of a managed fire.

Syntax

float|false getFireStrength(fire theFire)

Arguments

theFirefire

Managed fire element.

Returns

The current strength, or false when the element is not a managed fire.

Ownership and lifecycle

A managed fire is an element owned by the resource that created it, so stopping that resource extinguishes its fires. Server-created fires are synchronized to every client, and lifetime is tracked as relative remaining time so a client joining mid-burn receives what is left.
