Is it possible for you to deploy tire spikes with cleo?
if so has anyone got the code?

thanks

you mean TEMP_STINGER2 of mission Puncture Wounds ?
I believe its not done as cleo. Its a bit of work.
Needs to place the object TEMP_STINGER2 on street and check if a car is at same coord
then deflate its tire

CODE

04FE: deflate_tire 1 on_car 0@

Some years ago I created such a mod for Vice City (Stinger Drop Mod), demonj0e converted it to San Andreas. It's not a cleo script though, and that might be a bit hard as it makes extensive use of small threads and I don't think CLEO-scripts allow that.

no, the script is pretty short, and using not so complicated speech. I think that could be writen as CLEO.

[PatrickW]

I'm not an expert in the limitations of CLEO-scripts, but I was under the impression that you couldn't start new threads from within them.
Not based on experience, but on this text from the sannybuiulder CLEO helppages:

QUOTE (sannybuilderhelp >> CLEO3 scripts)

One file – one thread. Each CLEO-script must be made as a single thread compiled in a single file. If you need more threads for your script, use the opcodes 004F or 0A92, depending of where is that additional thread located - in the main.scm or in a separate cs-file.

But maybe an option would be to have the small "stringer-thread" in a seperate CLEO-file, and start that from the sniffer-thread with opcode 0A92. Certainly worth a try.

Stinger Drop Mod for San Andreas (CLEO3 version)
Thanx to demonj0e for making the SA conversion of the original Stinger Drop Mod.

Compile both files in your CLEO directory.
Start a new game, and drop stingers with "FIRE" in any vehicle.

You can make sperate threads in cleo bc7 did it in his mod Where would I find the ID for#TEMP_STINGER2? I don't remember

You beat me to it

The ID of the stinger can be found in the large table at the top of a standard main.scm.
I guess not, afterall


@JT_Mix: Did you try it with a default SA main.scm or with a modded one ?

I stand corrected. That is indeed the correct value. Edited it in my post above..

ZAZ:

[Seemann]

CLEO scripts only use global IDs of models. Use the Ctrl+Alt+H feature to convert a model name to ID and vice versa.

Like this:

Thanx for the tip, seeman

Wouldn't it be possible to also support this "translation" for CLEO-scripts during compilation ?
So that you can simply use the symbolic name "#TEMP_STINGER2" in CLEO-scripts also ?

[Seemann]

Yea, that would be useful, however I'm a supporter of that a scripter should know how the things work and why the code is compiled in a certain way. Anyway, added on the todo list.

todo list. ?? you will release a new version ??
and for gta4, is there anything in work or will it stay by lua? or maybe a lua editer ?

[Seemann]

Sanny Builder and CLEO are far from completion. I still have in mind a lot of features to add for both. So, yea, new version will eventually come. As for GTA 4... let it be surprise!
