@Imran M That's because of the order in which your files are read in. Rename your "space cars" folder into "a_space cars" to ensure that it will be loaded first.

That you can spawn cars from different levels?
So, if car spawner designates level 3 for a car(s), then that/those car(s) you would spawn directly to a level 3 bridge next to the building.

I think default ground level would be 0.

Your .json with commas expanded to commas and linefeed:

Code: Select all

{ "id":"milkcar.28eu9jd",
 "type":"car",
 "frames":[ {"bmp":"milkcar.png",
"w":15,
"h":10,
"count":4} ,
 {"bmp":"milkcar.png",
"w":15,
"h":10,
"count":4},
 {"bmp":"milkcar.png",
"w":15,
"h":10,
"count":4} ],
 "v2":true,
 "capacity":1,
 "flag normal":false,
 "flag user2":true },
 [ { "id":"milfarm929jd",
 "type":"industrial",
 "workers":190,
 "author":"Lancaster Kingdom",
 "width":1,
 "height":1,
 "frames":[{"bmp":"milkfarm.png"}],
 "smoke":[{"id":"$smoke07",
"x":13,
"y":-14}],
 "level":3,
 "car spawner":[ { "cars":["milkcar.28eu9jd"],
 "radius":100,
 "count":70 } ] } ]
Should be:

Code: Select all

[{ "id":"milkcar.28eu9jd",
 "type":"car",
 "frames":[ {"bmp":"milkcar.png",
"w":15,
"h":10,
"count":4}  ],
 "v2":true,
 "capacity":1,
 "flag normal":false,
 "flag user2":true },
 { "id":"milfarm929jd",
 "type":"industrial",
 "workers":190,
 "author":"Lancaster Kingdom",
 "width":1,
 "height":1,
 "frames":[{"bmp":"milkfarm.png"}],
 "smoke":[{"id":"$smoke07",
"x":13,
"y":-14}],
 "level":3,
 "car spawner":[ { "cars":["milkcar.28eu9jd"],
 "radius":100,
 "count":70 } ] } ]
I redacted multiple uses of the same .png in the frames statements for the car, but that wasn't causing your problem. The json being an array [] of objects {}, didn't start with the initial [, which was later in the file. I moved it to the beginning.

 2. You have to add this into your bus definition:

Code: Select all

"template":"$template_bus00"
The bus will then be added to the variants of busses.
Is there a template for emergency vehicles, like SWAT vans, to be specific?

Re: Cars

Posted: 07 Jul 2020, 08:15

No, there's not. You'd have to write the template yourself if you need one. See content_car.json in the json resource topic for the needed attributes.

I took a look at the SWAT van's definition, and I didn't find anything out of the ordinary that seemed to give it the functionality I wanted. Are the emergency vehicles hard-coded?

I was wondering lately if it would be possible to allow a vehicle to spawn from a specific income level / category building such as T Industrial, TTT Residential and etc... as i am resuming work on a very old plugin i used to work on which would add new TTT / TT or T vehicles for existing buildings.

how can this be done then ?

Re: Cars

Code: Select all

"car spawner":[
           {
             "cars":["$yourcarid","$anothercarid","$etccarid"],
             "flags": ["garbage"],
             "count":36,
             "radius":1300          
           }
         ],
garbage for example of flags.
count should probably be lower.
radius should be less if you like to see your vehicles near the building only.
