How to create multiple Peds

[coin-god]

I know its possibole to create muiltiple similar PEDS like this:

 

 

[email protected]($index,10i) = Actor.Create(Gang2, #WMOST, [email protected], [email protected], [email protected])

 

 

But i really dont know the way it works.

 

I would like to know the way this works using the creating peds opcode, so i can create a big (maybe 10) peds with only using one time the crete ped opcode.

 

What i want to do is to create diferent pedfs in diferent locations, i already created a script for diferent spawn points and works very good, but i want to know how to create more than one ped at [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] with out having toi create each of them manually. I did that for my zombie script and i dont want to do it ever again , besides it made it be a very long script.

 

Cheers

Array is made out of variables. The game sums array number and index. For example, if $index is 2, then [email protected]($index,10i) will be the same as [email protected] If you want to create peds in different places, I'd recommend to use non-array variables and Actor.Create line for each actor. However, if you want to use some sequence of position, then it's good to use arrays. Example:

 

for $index = 0 to [email protected]($index,10i) = Actor.Create(Gang2, #WMOST, [email protected], [email protected], [email protected])[email protected] += 1.0end

 

This would create line of 10 peds with 1 meter distance between them starting from [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]

The array index is like a counter. You can use "one" variable as multible variables.

This one array variable occupies all following varable in relation to the array index(counter)

 

You must add 1 to the array index after using an code with arrays to can handle the "next" varable with the same code,

I needs mostly an extra mini loop with an check if the index greater than a specified value

 

:ArrayAct_18if001B:    15 > [email protected]  // integer values004D: jump_if_false @ArrayAct_2001C2: remove_references_to_actor [email protected]([email protected],16i) // Like turning an actor into a random pedestrian000A: [email protected] +=  1  // integer values0002: jump @ArrayAct_18:ArrayAct_20

 

 

[email protected] is ciro by default, so [email protected]([email protected],16i) is equal to [email protected]

 

if [email protected] is 1, [email protected]([email protected],16i) is equal to [email protected]

 

if you wonna check if the 4th actor is dead

you can do it so:

 

 

0006: [email protected] =  4  // integer valuesif8118:   NOT   actor [email protected]([email protected],16i) dead004D: jump_if_false @WWW

 

 

 

Ok,

[email protected]([email protected],16i) means

variable name(arrayindex, array data definition)

 

the array data definition defines the max count of the array index and i is for integer values

if you wonna use floats for coords it needs to define for floats with a f, [email protected]([email protected],16f)

 

Exemble script:
