I got this in a script of mine, and it works like a charm: (Slightly edited)

pawn Код:

stock CountVehicles()
{
    new carcount;
    for(new v = 0; v < 2000; v++)
    {
        if(GetVehicleModel(v) != 0)
        {
            carcount++;
        }
    }
    return carcount;
}

ok and the "number of vehicle models" i see in the console is the number of cars ?

Re: finding out how many cars you have - Mikkel_Pedersen - 01.08.2011

No, it is, as it says, the number of vehicles models you have created. Models are the type of the vehicle (like a hydra, rhino, infernus, etc)

myea well i dont understand where do i see the carcount ?

Re: finding out how many cars you have - Mikkel_Pedersen - 01.08.2011

That's what the function I pasted earlier is for. After you created the vehicles you can use the function and store what it returns, it returns the amount of cars.

what i meant was,i need to make a command to use that stock or how can i use it (after adding it to the gamemode ) ? im sorry for bothering you but i never used /added stock's before xD...

An example on how to use it to print the amount of vehicles when the server starts:

pawn Код:

public OnGameModeInit()
{
    //Add your static vehicles here
    //And when they are created, we want to count them and print it into the console
    new carscounted;
    carscounted = CountVehicles();
    printf("[OnGameModeInit] Cars counted: %d", carscounted);

    //Can also be done shorter, but it was an example to show how to store what 
    //CountVehicles() returns into the 'carscounted'
}

The example above only get to count the vehicles you have added in OnGameModeInit. If you want it in a command, it's the same princip:

pawn Код:

CMD:countcars(playerid, params[])//This example uses ZCMD
{
    printf("[Command countcars] Cars counted: %d", CountVehicles());
    return 1;
}//When you type /countcars in game, it'll print the amount of cars into the console.

mike = CreateVehicle(560,-258.0227,1517.3728,75.4593,29.6496,1,1, 20000);

The stock will count all vehicles. Also the mike = CreateVehicle(.....).
