This is a small example of creating 3D Line / "Rope" between vehicle and player.

function makeLineAppear()
  testVehicle = createVehicle ( 411, 0, 0, 5 ) -- Create our test vehicle.
  addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, createLine)        -- onClientRender keeps the 3D Line visible.
end
function createLine ( )
  x1, y1, z1 = getElementPosition ( testVehicle )                       -- Get test vehicles position.
  x2, y2, z2 = getElementPosition ( localPlayer )                  -- Get local players position.
  dxDrawLine3D ( x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2, tocolor ( 0, 255, 0, 230 ), 2) -- Create 3D Line between test vehicle and local player.
end
