If you use the above tutorial, which shows you how to use key presses and display stuff on the screen, that's the starting framework, then all you need to do is grab the current vehicle, and grab the speed from it.

CODE

//check if we are actually in a vehicle if(Player.Character.isInVehicle()) { float speed = Player.Character.CurrentVehicle.Velocity; }

or something along those lines.

Yeah figured it out step by step and with some other help - its not easy to jump into smth completely new
Thanks for that!

I was going to ask how this was done, but I decided to do a bit of research and thought I'd post my findings. Please correct me if I'm wrong, because I haven't had a chance to test this.

This is how you would set information to a .ini file. I'm using the ini file format from the original tutorial for continuity:

CODE

Settings.SetValue("INTERVAL", "SETTINGS", [VALUE]);

where [VALUE] is the value you are trying to set. So let's say you have an integer with a set amount, and you want to write this amount into your ini file.

CODE

int i = 10000; Settings.SetValue("INTERVAL", "SETTINGS", i);

EDIT: Sorry to dig up a few month old post, but I thought if I can help some green scripters learn how to make the next greatest mod, it would be worth it, and it would also be nice to continue this tutorial so we can all learn how to create better scripts.

Pardon my ignorance, but couldn't you just write your own system using System.Windows.IO ?

Edit: Sorry for the bump, didn't notice the post date

Hey friend! Do you know how to spawn attacking peds and, also, bodyguards? I was trying to do it through the Ped.Tasks (building a sequence) but it is not working. I'm also trying to detect when some mobs are dead, but, it seems to be not working properly. Something like this:

Ped ped;
ped = World.CreatePed(Player.Character.Position.Around(5.0f));

// code code code

if(ped.isDead)
// code code code

how I flip a car?

[jitsuin]

why does this not work when i try BindPhoneNumber? I place this.BindPhoneNumber in script constructor and create my method below the constructor

CODE

using System; using System.Windows.Forms; using GTA; namespace GTA {    public class GTA : Script    {        public GTA()        {            this.BindPhoneNumber("1234567890", new PhoneDialDelegate(WrongNumber));        }        private void WrongNumber()        {            Game.DisplayText("Wrong Number Bitch");        }    } }

i dial 1234567890 on phone but no method is called and i just get a busy signal, no text is displayed...thanks!!!

i also tried multiple strings for phone number like "777 400" or "1111" or "1111111111" and nothing

Hi,

Thank you for the tutorial !

jitsuin, i think you need to do that

CODE

BindConsoleCommand("WrongNumber", new ConsoleCommandDelegate(WrongNumberCommand), "Wrong Number Bitch");

[Don Wasyl]

Andrew, could you reupload images in your tutorial?
Tranks!

[Lorenzo3024]

sorry, how can I spawn a vehicle and warp niko inside?

this is my code:

Public Class SpawnHoverCar
Inherits Script

Public Sub New()
BindKey(Keys.PageUp, AddressOf SpawnCar)
End Sub

Public Sub SpawnCar()
Dim v As Vehicle = World.CreateVehicle("INFERNUS", Player.Character.Position.Around(0.0F))

v.NoLongerNeeded()
End Sub
End Class

PS: Sorry for my bad engish

[pavelsoft]

really useful

[wapeddell]

How do I figure out what functions do what that is the only thing holding me back from writing my own scripts.

[carolynross09]

Nice script..It works well

I appreciate all the time you took to do this, but unfortunately this is worthless for people like me who don't know C# already. It's probably hard for someone who already knows it all, but from my perspective, this is nearly impossible. I can read it five times over and still not understand it, at all. I mean, I understand variables, strings, variable and string operations, but I don't understand the structure encased around them one bit. It's a shame because I have a logical mind for programming, but nobody has come along yet who is really capable of teaching me how to actually program successfully. Like what's a method? What's "public class tutScriptVS : Script" do? What is "(object sender, GTA.KeyEventsArgs e)" all this stuff for? What does any of it mean? It looks like gibberish to me. Arg is the sound I make when I take a huge crap, and that's all I know. It's all the little things like this that coders take for granted when they're trying to teach and gloss over or ignore them, but that seriously make me feel confused and unable to learn any of this.

I will try yo give a full starter tutorial for C#. Next week should be ready

[123iamking]

can u teach me how to write the code "flip car" and "warp to previous car"(in case player fly out of the car after crashing) ? thanks , I don't know where to find those command

[tobu24]

I cannot seem to open any .NET scripts even with visual studio. I'm very confused. Is there a format I'm missing. I have a former .NET file created by someone who left the scene and I'm simply trying to open it to clean up the scripts and learn in the process.

don't have to find how to do those things anymore , I have find it out by myself . I have made "Be a driver" mod and upload it to GTAgarage.com

[SecondEmeraldMaster]

Am I able to use this with Visual C# 2010?

I saw that the one of the lines requires this:

using System.Windows.Forms

But C#2010 doesn't recognize this. Maybe I don't need it for this version...?

[Grove Street Boy]

Is there a function in .net scripting similar to the below cleo opcode?

00FE: actor $PLAYER_ACTOR sphere 0 in_sphere -2883.06 -2921.75 4.5529 radius 299.0 299.0 299.0

Basically a method to detect if the player is in a certain radius from a point.
