- **Platform**: MY Multiplayer (MYMP)
- **Kind**: Lua Function
- **Side**: Shared

## Syntax

```lua
table|false getPathNodeInfo(int node)
```

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `node` | `int` | A node id, as the other path functions return it. |

## Returns

A table with the fields below, or `false` if the node's area is not loaded.

- `type`: `car` or `ped`.
- `position`: the node's position.
- `width`: the path's width in metres.
- `links`: how many nodes are linked to it.
- `group`: nodes in different groups have no route between them.
- `spawnProbability`: from 0 to 15, how likely peds or cars are to appear there.
- `water`, `interior`, `switchedOff` (closed to traffic) and `dontWander`: booleans.
- `behaviour`: `roadblock` or `parking`, missing on other nodes.

## Example

```lua
local position = getElementPosition(localPlayer)
local node = getClosestPathNode(position.x, position.y, position.z)
local info = node and getPathNodeInfo(node)
if info and not info.switchedOff then
    outputDebugString(("road %.1f m wide with %d links"):format(info.width, info.links))
end
```
