Resource:Realdriveby

Introduction

RealDriveby is a fully customisable resource which allows a flexible driveby system for your server.

All of GTA's driveby compatible weapons, including the shotguns,pistols,M4 and AK-47 are supported by this resource. Shot delays for weapons such as pistols are fixed to their normal rate.

Users can switch weapons by default using the "Vehicle Look Left" and "Vehicle Look Right" keys while in driveby mode.

However, it is completely up to the admin how he or she wants drivebys to be: Using MTA's settings system, shot delays for weapons can be modified; the weapons which a driver can driveby with are customisable; the weapons a passenger can driveby with are customisable.

There are also options available to disable steering whilst in driveby mode, or disable drivebys altogether for certain vehicles.

On top of this, RealDriveby provides clientside scripting functions so that users can modify these attributes on a player-basis, allowing different players the ability to driveby different weapons and different delays.

Settings

All settings can be modified using MTA's set() functions, modifying the meta.xml of the resource, or modifying the settings.xml.

Driver weapons

• Setting name: driveby_driver
• Description: Sets the weapons that a driver can driveby with. To disable driver drivebys, just pass an empty table.

Passenger weapons

• Setting name: driveby_passenger

Shot delay

• Setting name: driveby_shot_delay
• Description: Sets the delay between each individual shot for the specified weapons. Unspecified weapons have GTA's default driveby fire rate. The setting is in the format of a table where the key is a string of the weapon ID, and the value is the delay in milliseconds.
