Summary	0005227: onClientPlayerWeaponFire returns "nil" for hitElement on destroyable objects
Description	onClientPlayerWeaponFire returns "nil" for hitElement on some models for instance the targets from the amunations shooting ranges you hit them they explode but nil is returned for the element that was hit but server side when using onPlayerTarget it shows the elements id when aiming at them i suspect its because these models are from interiors originaly and were placed in the main map outside when this ocured
Steps To Reproduce	map some objects from these ids 1583 1584 1588 1589 1590 1591 1592 3018 3019 3020 3021 3022 3023 3024 fire at the models to destroy them use the script below to test if needed and youll find most dont return any id for hitElement function ClientPlayerWeaponFired(weapon, ammo, ammoInClip, hitX, hitY, hitZ, hitElement ) outputDebugString("weapon"..tostring(weapon).."") outputDebugString("hitElement"..tostring(hitElement).."") if hitElement ~= nil then triggerServerEvent ( "SetStats", getRootElement(),source,weapon,hitElement) end end addEventHandler ( "onClientPlayerWeaponFire", getLocalPlayer(), ClientPlayerWeaponFired )

However, hitElement remains empty. Could it be because MTA performs the test (to trigger onClientPlayerWeaponFire) too late when the object is already "destroyed" and therefore the ray test fails?
