Important info about Buildings
- There is a distinction in GTA: San Andreas between static and dynamic models (these use a separate streaming system). Examples of buildings include building models, roads, and terrain. Objects created as Buildings can contain glass and shadows, unlike those created as Objects(which are missing these features).
- Using buildings for mapping is more optimized than using objects. Gains in FPS can be noticed in areas where a lot of objects were replaced with buildings of this new system.
- Buildings cannot be created with dynamic object model IDs (like a door that opens when you push it), they are meant to be used for static objects, mainly buildings as the name suggests. For example, object ID 1502 (Gen_doorINT04) is a dynamic object model, which can be spawned using createObject. On the other hand, object ID 3556 (compmedhos3_LAe) is non-dynamic, you can use it with createBuilding.
- Buildings can only be created inside regular GTA:SA Map Boundaries (X between -3000 and 3000; Y between -3000 and 3000). Use createObject to spawn objects outside these normal limits.
- Created buildings can have LOD models, which is possible using createBuilding to spawn the LOD building, then setLowLODElement to associate it with a non-LOD building element created beforehand. LOD model distance changed with engineSetModelLODDistance affects buildings too.
- Buildings cannot change dimension. Function setElementDimension will return false on any building. A building is created in a specific interior world, like the default GTA:SA landscape objects. All buildings appear in EVERY DIMENSION.
