Suggestions for Version 0.4

[creepers]

for snipers and RPGs, incase a cheater spawns an RPG and spam everyone with rockets, you can disable the aim button

What's wrong with either setting their damage to 0, removing all of the players weapons once he selects these or just simply bannig the player once he switches to them?

theres a setting for weapon damage?
you have a point on the instant ban thing. but when some innocent player gets it accidentally......

but skip that you can just ban the person who killed someone with an RPG or sniper if its needed.

i has more suggestionzzzzz:
object/vehicle streaming? not possible i think
use camera for no-HUD pictures
NPC!
use of animationz on spawn area. also music
everythin else on SAMP..... which is possible for VCMP

btw for the server files..... can some scripters make basic gamemodes for new people who want to host a server?

SetWeaponDamage(id,damage);

I dunno how cheats work, but if they switch to the newly added weapon then there's no way someone can get these as a pickup (as long as you don't place the pickup yourself).

but skip that you can just ban the person who killed someone with an RPG or sniper if its needed.

You've got the point. My way prevents them from scoring one extra frag though. :x

object/vehicle streaming? not possible i think

I think you can use CreateVehicle for vehicles. And nothing for objects.

use camera for no-HUD pictures

You can actually do it with even your fists.

NPC!

use of animationz on spawn area. also music

Jeez, are we close to 1.0 or something?

everythin else on SAMP..... which is possible for VCMP

Yeah, and let's then rename VCMP into SAMP:VC. lol

btw for the server files..... can some scripters make basic gamemodes for new people who want to host a server?

There is a basic mode located at "gamemodes/mode.amx".

i can't say a thing.......:x

nice talkin with u lol
ill be remaking my server with the new functions. thx

Just maybe something that could be NOW useful and probably wont take much time for coding :].

SetGravity for a PLAYER
SetGamespeed for a PLAYER

Now its only possible to change it for everyone but i want only for 1 player. If someone played MTA:SA on servers like BombDaBase, then if a player kill you, the game speed is slower but only for the killed player and it looks simply cool rofl.

It would be nice for an option to disable the teamkill message, I hate having every players nick color white for a free for all server..

Please

Ok, here is my big idea:
instead of adding functions i think we are better of with you removing some.
Sounds wierd? let me explain it.
There are some things that irritate me, and probally others too..
Like the default /kill and /me commands, and that all custom commands are prefixed with /c.
The /kill and /me commands should be removed because they are very easy to script and because they are standard we can't change them now.
Ofcourse the /c prefix should also be removed because well, that's just silly.

And another one: the drowned and died messages.
I think they should be removed too, not everyone wants them or want them in this color. Like on a RP server this could cause much metagaming.

One more: the "I don't know that command" message.
Well this is just like the other problems i stated here, it is easy to script and now you can't change it wich is very irritating...

I hope you guys can do something with this

[Boss]

The /kill and /me commands should be removed because they are very easy to script and because they are standard we can't change them now.

That was done because it is assumed that scripters would be unable to reproduce them, therefore resulting in a reduced servers' functionality. I agree, nevertheless, that it is sufficient to just add them in default mode, since most of the "newb scripts" are based upon it.

One more: the "I don't know that command" message.
Well this is just like the other problems i stated here, it is easy to script and now you can't change it wich is very irritating...

You can prevent this message from being displayed by adding "return 1" in the end of your OnPlayerCommandText. Therefore you can add a custom one directly before the return.

Fixed in 0.4.

My next suggestion: remove the "car bonus things" like for entering ambulance u get +20 hp or smthing like that :/.

I have somewhere seen the memory code for this at gtaforums but cant find it now :p.

It's a great idea. I've found ASM stuff to disable it. If someone doesnt want armour and wants SWAT vehicle then what? Or gamemode without shotguns, but with COP cars? It can be easly added with scripting stuff.

[Ettans]

You can also do it server-side. If the player enters the Enforcer, get his/her armour level. When he/she exits the Enforcer, check if it's bigger than before, if yes, remove it. You can use this to remove the shotgun and also extra health.

Wouldn't it be easier to disable it in client with really short hack? IMO disabling it with scripting is pointless. You can add shotgun/monies from taxi/armour/health with less lines of code than disabling it.

//Edit:
Boss: Theres onPlayerHealthChange callback in the squirrel server.

+1

@Ettans
Ok and how do you see the HP bonus remove via scripting? Lets say you will use the scripting callback health change and if new hp > old hp... Then okay you enter the ambulance and the bonus is removed. But what about !heal command or heal pickups? Then the hp bonus will be removed too, but e.g. i will that players can be healed via cmd or pickup...

And what about Shotgun bonus from police? How do you want to remove the shotgun? Its not possible in vcmp u can only remove ALL weps, what i DONT want.

[Boss]

You can use this to remove the shotgun

Impossible.

1) There is no "OnHealthChange" callback.
2) There are OnVehicleEnter and OnVehicleExit callbacks.
3) You check vehicleid in both. If the ID is ambulance, you store player's HP in 1st and set it in 2nd, ensuring that player leaves the ambulance with as many HP as he entered with. Same for enforcer.
4) This method restores player's health/armor if he was damaged while in the vehicle, so it's still rather lame.
