put dis shit on the workshop, yo
lol, That's like 1 mile per gallon.
[QUOTE=kpjVideo;45434142]lol, That's like 1 mile per gallon.[/QUOTE]
My cousin used to have a range rover, I know from experience that that is way more than 1 mile per gallon ;)
and you can edit how much fuel it takes, I used 1000 as a base starting point and so i can test certaij functions when it runs out of fuel quicker, it's intended to have a much higher fuel amount haha
i have 2 suggestions:
1) For draw the card on third person use PreDrawTranslucentRenderables, looks like card draws after the car
2) Move the main fuel bar to the botton and make the height lesser

it's up, link in the OP
uploaded version 1.1 to both dropbox and workshop, changelog in the OP :)
pushed another update onto the workshop, dropbox link will be up soon, changelog in op will also be updated. I'm probably going to stop posting updates in here after this as no one reads the thread lol.
it's a nice thing but you should save the fuel of the cars and make the vgui a bit nicer only my thoughts

save the fuel of the cars? what do you mean?
[QUOTE=jack10685;45465247]save the fuel of the cars? what do you mean?[/QUOTE]
Person purchases a car
Person uses fuel
Person rejoins server and uses their car again
Person has same fuel level as before (not back to full).
I think that's what he means.

ahhh, well the mod doesn't include purchasing, as I spawn only from the spawnmenu, but I guess I can do something in the spawn function for setting an owner (and set it to incorporate that in say, a darkrp spawn menu or an npc dealer)
Would be nice - good work for a free script! Keep it up!

I don't think i am going to be able to do your fuel saving bit :(, I tried implementing it and it seems to fuck up everything else for some unknown reason. I'v spent the past 20 - 30 minutes trying to fix everything it breaks but every time I fix one thing another error shows up with no reason for one to show. If some coding guru would like to help, be my guest and add me on [url=http://steamcommunity.com/id/jackskellington20]steam[/url] lol.
Your UI is not the best. I mean it's awful. Hire someone, call a friend or remake it by yourself and it will become great addon.

added to the list of things to do
For some reason whenever I add this to a server, DarkRP, it kills the server. The data doesn't load, as in no wallets, no player models, sometimes no jobs. I can't seem to figure out why, I just plopped the addon in, didn't edit anything and it doesn't work. Any ideas?

works for me, are you using any other addons?
[QUOTE=jack10685;45491298]works for me, are you using any other addons?[/QUOTE]
Yes, but nothing that should be conflicting with this, I'll try messing around with adding it to only some addons and I'll get back to this thread.

ok, I'll look into it
[editline]f[/editline]
I can't replicate the error, but I did add a function to the line that seems to be having an error to prevent the error, I'll add it to the next release
Updated the workshop addon, changes will be put in the OPs changelog, I'll update the dropbox link soon as well
