Last year presents

[nyolc8]

I like it but i still don't understand how are the presents are spawned... I mean, their xy coordinates on the map are pure random, or there are some places scripted where they can spawn? If it's totaly random, then what happens if a present spawns inside a building for example?

It's random, and it uses a plugin to detect Z coordinate so they can only spawn above the floor (they can be on top of buildings?)

But what's with the buildings and objects? Is it detect those too? And what's with the custom mapped buildings?

There is a 0,01% posibility a present will spawn into a mapped house. Why? The plugin gets really random locations around san andreas and the custom maps uses atleast a 2% of ALL san andreas terrain. Don't worry about that.

Quote from the plugin thread: It is only luck most of the time that prevents you from being teleported in to a building or wall, or even below the ground. - So no, they won't spawn in buildings.

You should see how NPC's react under bridges with MapAndreas. Buggy as fuck.

Voted for maybe because, the presents now isnt bad nor goodbits between atm i have no good suggestion for a better present system

[X_Raided]

altough they are hard as shit to find i think is better...it will last longer ...there should be a better way to give us a clue of where though..

[Trux]

This system has advantages and disadvantages. Advantages like it is an even that would last longer than last year's one, and disadvantages like when there aren't many presents there aren't many chances to get one of them.

More will spawn once one has been picked up just watch how they are announced and you'll pick it up.

Its an idea, but it'd require a fuck load of testing, seeing as it'd be spawning in a constant static object, as well as deleting it once the present had been picked up. Let matias/mick decide. BTW, remove your sig please.

perfectly possible not a bad idea, like the one when you get admin messaged? or louder?

[Spekter]

They all complain just because its too hard

This. 


This year present hunt is actually a hunt, and not a one-way tour to each of them, done by your friend.
Apparently, some people expected the same boring and senseless routine again.
