Dynamic Object Arrays - Scenario - 21.07.2010

Okay, I know you can use arrays to add objects into your GM, but I don't know how to integrate this steamer into an object array for my server. Could someone please help me out, or possibly create a tutorial? Thanks!

Re: Dynamic Object Arrays - Яσскѕтая - 21.07.2010

If I am understanding what you mean, you just use CreateDynamicObject instead of CreateObject.

Re: Dynamic Object Arrays - Scenario - 21.07.2010

Correct, but instead of having this.

pawn Code:

CreateDynamicObject(...);
CreateDynamicObject(...);
CreateDynamicObject(...);
CreateDynamicObject(...);
CreateDynamicObject(...);
CreateDynamicObject(...);
CreateDynamicObject(...);
CreateDynamicObject(...);
CreateDynamicObject(...);

I could have.

pawn Code:

new Objects[x]
{
     {objectID, ...}
     {objectID, ...}
     {objectID, ...}
     {objectID, ...}
     {objectID, ...}
     {objectID, ...}
}

Its a little better doing that in my opinion, its especially nice if I wanted to make something so the first half is like "gate closed" and the second is "gate opened", etc.

A friend of mine named Kyosaur made a 'MTA MAP LOADER' (Just a snippet on the XML Thread) to load MTA maps, and convert them into SA-MP.

So you could just map the objects, save them (using MTA 1.0 ofcourse), then place them somewhere, and load them with the loader, you'll have to make an array listing every map name, though.

It's on the 3rd page, 5 posts down, you'll have to figure out some stuff of your own though.

Re: Dynamic Object Arrays - Яσскѕтая - 21.07.2010

Not sure if this is right but you could try

pawn Code:

new Objects[x]
{
     {objectid, argument, argument...}, 
     {objectid, argument, argument...} // Last one doesnt have a , all others do.
};

Then do like

pawn Code:

new rand = random(sizeof(randomSpawns));
CreateDynamicObject(Objects[rand][0], Objects[rand][1], Objects[rand][2] );

If that is what you are wanting. (Sorry if it's not im really not fallowing along with you :\)

I didn't know that, YSI Is rather unpopular, shouldn't be lol.

Yes, that is what I am looking for. However, I need to be able to define what each "argument" is.

Oh, thanks Y_Less. I think I will give YSI a shot, I have never really thought much about using it.

Well, its not really a streamer or a map loader I am looking for, but I will take a look. It may come in handy for the future.

Re: Dynamic Object Arrays - Яσскѕтая - 21.07.2010

Did you read the streamer functions?

pawn Code:

CreateDynamicObject(modelid, Float:x, Float:y, Float:z, Float:rx, Float:ry, Float:rz, worldid = -1, interiorid = -1, playerid = -1, Float:distance = 200.0);

Those are the arguments, you get them on your own..

I'm also interested in this

Yes, I know what the functions are. However, does the array you showed me know what each function is as well? Don't you have to create an "enum", stating what area of the array performs what function with what variable?
