I used /dl and I'm aware of the meaning of everything except for the preloaded thing. I know 0 means that the vehicle isn't preloaded, and that 1 means the vehicle is preloaded, but what does preloaded mean exactly? Does it mean that the vehicle was spawned manually by another player?

I hope someone can answer my question, and yes I do know what preloaded means (like when you get a computer there are programs already installed on the operating system) but I don't know what it means for SA-MP, so I thought I'd ask.

Edit: Question answered.

I thought preloaded was AddStaticVehicle, and not-preloaded was CreateVehicle.
Correct Me If I'm Wrong.

Preloaded means it was created in OnGameModeInit.
Not-preloaded means it was created after OnGameModeInit.

A guess too

You are wrong. I think that preloaded means that that vehicle model was loaded on server start (before OnGamemodeInit finished), so before "Number of vehicle models: XX" shows up.

I was correct? Maybe you meant

It means the vehicle model was loaded when the player connected to the server, instead of being loaded when the vehicle streamed in. Preloaded means faster. If there are a lot of vehicle models on the server that aren't preloaded, it could slow down the game for players.

What thing has impact on how many vehicle models are preloaded?

@EllipseRage, I thought you weren't talking about vehicle models, but actual vehicles.

I know you and the SA-MP team are busy with 0.3b, so thank you very much for taking the time to respond. Also of course, thanks for explaining what preloaded means.

Edit: Thanks everyone else for responding as well.
