## Description

If targetPed is set to 0 the ped motivationState affects everyone

## Usage

### Lua

```lua
local retval = GetPedMotivation(ped, motivationState, targetPed)

-- always available, by hash
local retval = Citizen.InvokeNative(0x42688E94E96FD9B4, ped, motivationState, targetPed, Citizen.ResultAsFloat())
```

### JavaScript

```js
const retval = GetPedMotivation(ped, motivationState, targetPed);

// by hash
const retval = Citizen.invokeNative('0x42688E94E96FD9B4', ped, motivationState, targetPed, Citizen.returnResultAnyway(), Citizen.resultAsFloat());
```

### C#

```csharp
float retval = Function.Call<float>((Hash)0x42688E94E96FD9B4, ped, motivationState, targetPed);
```

- The name is a community guess and may change. If the named call is missing in your client build, use `InvokeNative` with the hash — it always works.
