Important
Notes

  • Actors are completely separate from NPCs. They do NOT use player IDs/slots on the server and CANNOT be handled like NPCs.
  • Actors are limited to 1000 (MAX_ACTORS).
  • Actors can be pushed by vehicles, use a timer to put them back at their positions.
  • As of 0.3.7 R2 actors default to being invulnerable.


Tip

Actors are designed to just stand somewhere, for example cashiers and bartenders. They can perform animations (once or looping) using ApplyActorAnimation.


Example Usage:

new ActorCJ;
 
public OnGameModeInit()
{
    // Create an actor (CJ) at Blueberry Acres (Center of SA map)
    ActorCJ = CreateActor(0, 0.0, 0.0, 3.0, 0.0);
}
