## Syntax

```lua
element|false createColRectangle(float x, y, float width, depth)
```

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `x, y` | `float` | The rectangle's corner with the lowest `x` and `y`. A `vec2` also works. |
| `width, depth` | `float` | The size along `x` and `y`, in metres. Negative values count as 0. A `vec2` also works. |

## Returns

The created `colshape` element, or `false` if it could not be created.

A collision shape detects players, peds, vehicles and objects by their position and fires `onColShapeHit` and `onColShapeLeave` (`onClientColShapeHit` and `onClientColShapeLeave` on a client). It goes away when the resource that created it stops.

## Example

```lua
local parking = createColRectangle(1520.0, -1700.0, 40, 25)
```
