Re: .mis Error

Well i dont quite see whats causing that actually. Perhaps your map is just really weirdly setup in a way they cant spawn properly on some places. Anyway using the script from here i made 1, 2, 3 and 4-player versions of each script, with an added mechanism of having the bot in the 3-player script s...

Re: .mis Error

I just noticed each bot targets a different player. How have you been testing this? If you're testing this in singleplayer well there's your problem, the player peds that arent used will, as far as im aware, eventually disappear like any other ped when left behind and off the screen. And once that h...

Re: .mis Error

Hm, almost forgot actually, IF statements, except possibily the one checking for health seem to crash the game if used on items/characters/cars not in the game, if they happen to be not created yet, deleted or simply declared and never used. Or so while making over 10 missions of the project seemed ...

Re: .mis Error

Well i dont get any compiler or script errors while compiling this script with my mispad. And the only thing thats been altered is that my mispad has that improved compiler that takes more lines before it rejects too large scripts. You'll have to provide more information then that if its not working...

Ah, tried that with ' and " marks and so on but i guess it didnt need any this time. It just keeps changing! But now its fixed i suppose.
Hm, that car list does have the advantadge of displaying the car crusher rewards, i certainly could use that to fix up the crusher reward system in my project.

Just putting this here for two reasons. Firstly i noticed no clear references to this website which has extensive tutorials for GTA2, though i can be mistaken i guess. And secondly i posted this for manual translations of the few pages that werent officially translated yet into English of the Wiki. ...

Re: gang Help

Uh, you did setup the gang zone as an gang zone type did you? Aside from that all you need to do is put a SET_GANG_INFO in the script with the exact same name and it should work. I suggest renaming the zone into something with 4 characters and no numbers (as i heard some gang commands only take the ...

I believe there was also p! for Police heads. They seem to be leftovers that where never officially used. Seems to function correctly in every way though.
Basic example:

Re: Collection of gta scripting and map weirdness

I've been messing with CHECK_WEAPON_TYPE_HIT_CHAR and observed some peculiar behaviour. It DOES work but in a very limited fashion. It appears to function for every on-foot weapon except throwables and Fists(didnt test for ped fists, though), though i havent tested it with the Electro Baton, neither...

Re: I'm back!

One does not quit GTA2 but merely takes extended breaks from it. Or so seems to be my case. :P Perhaps a tip at developing stuff... Its alot more bearable if you do it in moderation, just play games, have hun, open up that editor and build stuff when inspiration strikes. And if it is of any interest...

Re: DMA Scripting Documentation in HTML

I suppose it might be worth to mention FOLLOW_CAR_IN_CAR only seems to actually work when the car being followed has a driver in it(even if its simply a ped). If it doesnt have one it basically ignores the command and they'll just drive off seperately. Was thinking of posting this in the scripting w...

Re: GTA2 Game Hunter - ideas and suggestions

Its a relatively small pet peeve, but it would be nice if users inactive for over an hour or so would be marked as either 'AFK'(Away From Keyboard), or simply 'Away', though this doesnt have to apply to bots (its fairly common for people in the lobby to be this quiet). Speaking of, is it possible to...
