Police Station Slots

[Guest delta1135]

Is there any way that I can add more slots for the police cars to return to when I click the "Return to Police Station" button? I've poked around in the editor and they display as transparent blue rectangles. But I am unable to select them or figure out how to create more.

[Ami89E1234]

The "blue rectangles" are called Virtual Objects and can be created/selected by going to Scene - Virtual Objects. Then find the ones used for the parking spaces by the police station, add more and name them appropriately, then edit the Go to Police Station script so they can be used as parking spaces.

Thank you for the help.

[Guest delta1135]

Okay, I was able to create more virtual objects and named them. But I may have messed up the scripting. The only script I could find relating to the police station was "LAToPoliceStation.script"

Anything that you can see that I messed up? Or is there another section of the script that I have to modify. Yes. I did make 33 spaces.

[Xplorer4x4]

Thats correct but now you have to add the 30 spaces to the rest of the script where it starts saying VO_PARK01.

Keep in mind you need to keep atleast one empty parking space between each car for it to be able to park correctly and open its doors, so 30+ spots probably will not work.

Question.

1.) I created a vo and named it policestation_park07 but when I tell a police car to return to the station all the slots fill up except mine.

I also found this, there are three parking spots (and they all have this stuff below). Do I need to add another one for my additional parking space? If so, what is a gameobjectlist and where do I find it.

if (!ParkinglotFound)

{

GameObjectList l2;

Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_PARK01, l2, ACTOR_VEHICLE);

if(l2.GetNumObjects() == 0)

{

l1 = Game::GetActors(VO_PARK01);

ParkinglotFound = true;

}

}

if (!ParkinglotFound)

{

GameObjectList l3;

Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_PARK02, l3, ACTOR_VEHICLE);

if(l3.GetNumObjects() == 0)

{

l1 = Game::GetActors(VO_PARK02);

ParkinglotFound = true;

}

}

if (!ParkinglotFound)

{

GameObjectList l4;

Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_PARK03, l4, ACTOR_VEHICLE);

if(l4.GetNumObjects() == 0)

{

l1 = Game::GetActors(VO_PARK03);

ParkinglotFound = true;

}

}

if (Donut && !ParkinglotFound)

{

GameObjectList l5;

Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_PARK04, l5, ACTOR_VEHICLE);

if (!l5.ContainsSquad())

{

l1 = Game::GetActors(VO_PARK04);

ParkinglotFound = true;

ToDonut = true;

}

}

if (Donut && !ParkinglotFound)

{

GameObjectList l6;

Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_PARK05, l6, ACTOR_VEHICLE);

if (!l6.ContainsSquad())

{

l1 = Game::GetActors(VO_PARK05);

ParkinglotFound = true;

2. This is why your spots dont work. Just copy and paste the code that there changing VO_PARK01 to VO_PARK09 and so forth.

if (!ParkinglotFound)
{
GameObjectList l4;
Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_PARK03, l4, ACTOR_VEHICLE);
if(l4.GetNumObjects() == 0)
{
l1 = Game::GetActors(VO_PARK03);
ParkinglotFound = true;
}
}
if (!ParkinglotFound)
{
GameObjectList l4;
Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_PARK09, l4, ACTOR_VEHICLE);
if(l4.GetNumObjects() == 0)
{
l1 = Game::GetActors(VO_PARK09);
ParkinglotFound = true;
}
}
if (Donut && !ParkinglotFound)
{
GameObjectList l5;
Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_PARK04, l5, ACTOR_VEHICLE);
if (!l5.ContainsSquad())
{
l1 = Game::GetActors(VO_PARK04);
ParkinglotFound = true;
ToDonut = true;

Question. In your mod 4x4 you have the three police cars parking side by side at the PD station. Now I added an additional parking spot (as a test), and named it policestation_park07 (as you saw). Now do I need to rename this to vo 09 since you did that in your script? I sorta understand your reply but I'm new at all this stuff to so I'm trying to learn so I can do this stuff on my own.

Thank You.

[Xplorer4x4]

Not understanding you completely but do what i showed you in the post above then at the top of the script where you see:

const char VO_PARK07[] = "policestation_park07";

You have to define what VO_PARK09 would be, so you need this:

const char VO_PARK09[] = "policestation_park09";

Do the virtal objects need to be pervectly rectangle or can they be a little off when i go to save the edited scirt it says that it connot find the location of the scirt

[groovybluedog]

I need help with this too. I want to delete a building in the middle of the map (which I can do), and then copy/paste a car park from another area, putting it where the building was. I then want to rename the "Send to Police Station" command to "Send to Parking Area", in which the vehicles will return to the Virtual Objects in the center parking area. Is this possible?

[jumping]

when i add aparking to park a police car ,it will go to the area,but they can not park correctly ,the area is a pervectly rectangle
