is player driveby mode?

[gokuta]

This opcode:

0501: set_player $PLAYER_CHAR driveby_mode 0

Alright, cool. How do I check whether player is in driveby mode? Anybody knows memory address I can check? Thanks. Also NPCs are not players and (I believe) opcode 0501 (and the requested opcode) does not apply to actors other than player actor. Which is bit of a shame

There are two ways that I know of.

 

1. Checking task status:

062E: get_actor $PLAYER_ACTOR task 0x713 status_store_to 0@
if 0@ <> 7
then
    // performing drive-by
end

 

2. Checking camera ID:

0A8D: 0@ = read_memory 0xB6F1A8 size 2 virtual_protect 0
if 0@ == 55
then
    // performing drive-by
end

 

You may use either or both.
