Server Patch 5.8.2

Notes: Hello nerds it's been a while, sorry for the lack of patches. I have been fairly busy and hardly had the time to script for the past few months. I am working on a few projects here and there, some big others small, but have been struggling to find time for it. I don't think it's a patch that will excite everyone, but it's a necessary update for me to continue working.

PATCH 5.8.2

General

- Added a system that creates NPCs that can randomly walk across the map, there are over 6000 positions generated from the single-player version of the game that peds can walk. This system is far from finished and we might not even use it at VKs but will add it to test things out. Peds will not be on by default, only when I'm testing. Ultimately I did this for fun since no one else had done it. Note: The peds are made by objects
- Added /editconv which is a GUI version of making conversations it should make it 10 times easier to create conversations in properties. This also marks my first major GUI release for VKs.

- Added /ttt or tic tac toe, created by Sparrow. It uses 3D labels and is completely made by Sparrow without me having to do any scripting (outside of making the command).

- Accidently added bod 2 to the server in November and removed it again this patch. Glad no one noticed.

Property System

- Added /addlabelcolorpickup to change the color of your labels
- Added /addlabelpospickup & /addlabelpospickup2 with variable support for changing a labels position with a pickup.
- Added /addlabelrotationpickup & /addlabelrotationpickup2 with variable support for changing a labels rotation with a pickup.
- Added /changelabelpos & /changelabelpos2 to change the position of your label to specific values instead of having to use the editor.
- Added /changelabelrotation & /changelabelrotation2 to change the rotation of your label to specific values instead of having to use the editor.
- Updated the editor messages of labels to display the position and rotation it's currently on (when saving).

- Added /addvehrespawnpickup for respawning your vehicle in your property.

- Added /copypickupcondition for copying another pickups condition into another one. This isn't the optimal thing to do it's better to merge your pickups into an /addtriggerpickup2 and then make a condition on that one, but wanted to add this as an option for people.
- Made it so /copypickup copies everything about a pickup now making it easier for people to build.
- Added /copypickup2 which basically is the old /copypickup command

- Made the variable system understand if a player accidentally makes a space when creating a variable pickup for numbers.
- /mypropcommands now works without editing mode.

Property Variables

- Updated the variable system adding support for label variables:

Label_<Label Index>_Alpha: Displays the alpha of the label.
Label_<Label Index>_Index: Displays the index of the label.
Label_<Label Index>_Text: Displays the text of the label.
Label_<Label Index>_Color: Displays the color of the label in hex format.
Label_<Label Index>_Pos_<x, y, z>: Displays the position of label in x, y or z coordinate.
Label_<Label Index>_Rotation_<x, y, z>: Displays the rotation of label in x, y or z coordinate.
Label_<Label Index>_Size_<x, y, z>: Displays the size of label in x, y or z.
Label@/<Label Index / Variable Name>/<Pickup Variable Name>: This function allows you to execute the variables starting with Label_<Pickup Index> with a variable for your label index!. Example: Label@var_label/Alpha displays the alpha of the label with index var_label that you define with /addvariablepickup. The function shows in /debugmode!

- Added a new pickup variable:

pickup_condition_status: It will show if the pickup condition was last false or true, useful for re-using pickup conditions.

Good stuff, Angel!

woa its really nice to see that you still updating and adding more stuff to custom property edit, at this point im very outdate and dont understand much about these new things but i would like to see a custom property that take advantage of these things, im going to connect one of this days and check the new things you have been added, awesome work!

Idk about anything else but that npc system is GREAT!!!

Well yeah, I keep adding things I feel are missing. You don't need to know about everything. If you need a specific pickup I want people to have the option to use it. There are 2-4 different ways to do most things and it's up to the person to decide how they wanna do it. The pickups I added this time are related to the 3D labels so you got more options with them. For example, you could in theory make GUI that moves with the player (but it will, of course, lag a bit behind) or simply expand the usage of the GUI. Mikimon built sorta a football grass field by using 3D labels, these features will also make it a bit easier to do such things.

Hard to explain what it can be used for, it's up to the property editors like always they are tools that are available. Most people don't use all of the features. I had a few ideas like I just described, but the rest is up to the builders.

If you wanna pick up and start learning about it, the commands are a lot more sorted now. if you want something related to vehicles you type /vehiclecmdsor /vehpickups for all of the pickups you can use. But like always if you are unsure how to do something just send me a message and I will help you find the commands you need. /propcmds will reveal all commands for properties.

Thanks for the comment!

Thanks. The NPC system is not added I will test it and see how it performs. From the first tests, it seems alright. The rest is mostly related to the 3D labels in properties, giving people more tools to work with if they have any label ideas.

Dude label sucks add the npc system its like the coolest thing i can make alot of stuff using that like a story mission based minigame much like the things we do in vc like steal cars and stuff and i would like you to add 2 systems 1. If a npc is killed there should be a cmd that must spawn a vehicle at the same spot the npc died for example i kill a car npc a car(any car) should spawn at that same spot
2. When you do make that npc thing can you add a detailed mag pickup ir something about the models and indexes of all the npcs and where are all the pickups etc.

I should have made the notes more clear. I updated it now. By NPCs I don't mean exactly like the single-player NPCs. I mean like the NPCs you are used to in VKs. What I added was the ability to spawn VKs NPCs that will randomly walk around the map in the same paths as the singleplayer NPCs.

I am not sure I will do anything with it in world 1 since they might annoy players.

1. A car should spawn at a spot where you kill an NPC, what benefit would that give?

2. I don't fully understand your second question

Regarding labels: If you don't want to use them that's fine I just add support for everything and people are free to use them. There are lots of cool things people can build from labels so I wanna make sure the server supports all of that.

By the car should spawn at the spot where you kill the npc well like for example i go into a prop and there is no vehicle nearby and i need a car since we cant steal cars from npcs so i think killing a npc and spawning a car at the same spot is very good by doing this we can actually do make a little bit kind of server in a prop.

You will add this npc thing in /addpropscript right?
And if you will use property pickups while making this which you obv will do, by my second question i meant that can you add a detailed brief message about where are the pickups and all of the npc ids with their model i know this alot but its up to you.

I am afraid I don't get why you want to do this. Makes no sense to me. But it's very possible

/addvehmovepickup2 <Vehicle Index> $player_npcshot_pos_x$ $player_npcshot_pos_y$ $player_npcshot_pos_z$ 0

Then you use /setnpcpickup <NPC Index> 6 <Pickup Index>

This will make the car you enter appear when the NPC is killed. I didn't test this, but it should work.

No there are no plans for what I should do with it. If you are talking about your suggestion: I will not make a propscript when it's just 2 pickups and no one else will use it.

If you're talking about the NPC thing I added. It won't require pickups it's a different system.
