# HAPI Methods

The HAPI class has multiple methods to save you time and enhance your workflow.

### Finding an object by name near a position

Sometimes there's multiple objects with the same name so if you have your object position you can use this method to find it more accurately.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Method" %}

```csharp
GameObject FindGameObjectNearPos(string name, Vector3 position)
// This allows you to get the nearest object from this position that matches the name.
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Example" %}

```csharp
GameObject overpassRoadpart = HAPI.FindGameObjectNearPos("30 Wedge", new Vector3(-8.20f, 0, -45.58f));
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Finding an object by its hierarchy path

This is probably the most accurate way of finding buildings or static objects if you want to interact with them.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Method" %}

```csharp
GameObject FindGameObjectByPath(string path)
// This allows you to get an object by its hierarchy path
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Example" %}

```csharp
GameObject overpass = HAPI.FindGameObjectByPath("Map/Container/Overpass");
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Saving the game

This one is pretty simple as you just call it to save the game.

```csharp
HAPI.SaveGame();
```

### Teleporting a player somewhere

HAPI gives you an extension method for the Player class so you can teleport an user wherever you want.

```csharp
player.Teleport(new Vector3(0,0,0));
```

### Kicking a player

Kicking a player can be done through the Kick extension method.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Method" %}

```csharp
void Kick(this Player player, string reason = "You have been kicked from the server !")
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Example" %}

```csharp
thePlayer.Kick("Get out of here.");
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Banning a player

Banning a player can also be done using HAPI with the Ban extension method.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Method" %}

```csharp
void Ban(this Player player, string reason = "You have been banned from the server !")
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Example" %}

```csharp
thePlayer.Ban("You'll never come back again.");
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
