## Returns

`void`

## Description

Sets stamina core drains peed using ranged damage scale and melee damage scale

## Usage

### Lua

```lua
SetPlayerDefenseModifier(player, weaponDefenseMod, meleeDefenseMod)

-- always available, by hash
Citizen.InvokeNative(0x497A6539BB0E8787, player, weaponDefenseMod, meleeDefenseMod)
```

### JavaScript

```js
SetPlayerDefenseModifier(player, weaponDefenseMod, meleeDefenseMod);

// by hash
Citizen.invokeNative('0x497A6539BB0E8787', player, weaponDefenseMod + 0.0000001, meleeDefenseMod + 0.0000001);
```

### C#

```csharp
Function.Call((Hash)0x497A6539BB0E8787, player, weaponDefenseMod, meleeDefenseMod);
```

- Float parameters: Lua integers (`10`, or whole numbers decoded from NUI/JSON) are sent as ints and read as garbage. Write `10.0` or `value + 0.0`. The generated JS wrappers add `0.0000001` to non-zero floats for the same reason.
- 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.
