When we are going to have NPC bots in server like Samp it will look cool bots roaming around vice city. Or Fr example an idea Fr cnr when a theif steels or drives fast on a traffic light the npc bots starts chasing him...it will be cool or a npc bot may guide about ur Vcmp server to newbie players. Or bot may even drift ......huh only if only we can get these bots huh daydreaming...but really are we not going to have NPC bots

Stormeus

When we get to it. Hydraulics still crash clients and GUI scrollbars don't show up in some cases. We have no reason to start a project as huge as NPCs when there are, by my count, 30 confirmed major bugs to be fixed.

MEGAMIND

Oh man it's a horrible problem though but r u gyzz thinkin ng to even release it or never

Stormeus

I never said we'll do it. I said we'll do it when all other priorities have been sorted out.

MEGAMIND

Huh then it will take Fr ever even I will pass 2nd year

Stormeus

At least those two years will be spent making VC:MP more stable as opposed to throwing more features in that introduce more bugs without correcting the old ones.

Thijn

If it will be 2 years, so be it.

Bugfixes have a higher priority then adding something useless as NPCs which will only be used in a very few servers, because they affect so many more players.

MEGAMIND

Then I guess I will be in army then I will play realide killing pro

MEGAMIND

But hv u seen Samp they have more then 25 npcs in almost every srvr npcs are lot more helpful to make srvr great awwell I guess I have to wait then Fr 2 years if I may nt leave vcmp

No they're not. Some nice players, good simple gamemode and proper admins make a nice server. A few NPCs doesn't make a server great...

Why aren't you guys allowing more people to contribute to the source of vc:mp. I know you get asked this a lot (I really do). But even so, what's wrong with someone else to look through the source code for bugs. Maybe you guys don't like someone new with a weird coding style to come and mess up your code (at least I know it pisses me off) but at least it can report them exactly where and why they're happening. All contributed code could be revised by major developers (such as your self). But eventually it would be in everyone's best interest.

Also, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying to opensource vc:mp. Hell no!

Also, this has nothing to do with NPC. I find them to be useless in a multi-player game (for now).

Please do. I mean, not everyone here is into leaking and doing harmful things.

I like hydraulics, and I hope one day we can use hydraulics on every vehicle including bikes. :D
