Quick Question, is there a limit as to how many simpel walk around BOTS a server can have?
Or does is just depend upon specs?

Also whats teh difference between the new Actor system and normal Bots

It didn't seem like a good idea (in a game with 100's of players in the server) to have players responsible for syncing the actors. Players could easily mess with that data and disrupt the game. So I can't easily add a function to make actors run to a certain point because it would not sync in all cases -- and scripters here would be crying "bug, bug!" even though it's just a limitation of what SA-MP is working with.

The actor limit is 1,000. The idea of actors is that they can be used in shops etc.
I don't think there is a NPC limit, so I assume it depends on how many slots your server has.

Hope this helps.

So any Actor just stands still? i see.



Iv noticed BOT animations bug sometimes, any idea why this happens. like for some reason sometimes they just all collapse on the floor and /crack anim but move around lol

A) Yes.

B) Seems like a bug, and sounds familiar. This sometimes happens to players as-well I believe.
