SetEntityHealth

FiveM client native documentation with a Lua example.

Summary

Sets an entity's health. Common for healing or damaging peds. Use GetEntityMaxHealth to fully heal.

Returns

void

Parameters

entitynumberThe entity handle.
healthnumberThe health value to set.

Example

local ped = PlayerPedId()
SetEntityHealth(ped, GetEntityMaxHealth(ped)) -- full heal

Common pitfalls

  • Setting health to 0 kills the ped.
  • Health/anti-cheat: setting player health client-side can be flagged; do healing through trusted logic on serious servers.
