Has anybody tried this? Before i give it a shot, i just wanted to clear things up so i dont have to waste time making a server and trying this and ending up in a failure..
like:
create_car %(boat name) (co-ords) ()
But, of course, we will implement boats in the re-write

Is this for the GTA 3 half, the GTA:VC half, or both?

I thought we were going with it where anybody can host their own server. If so it would probably also be made that you can script a .map file with placed vehicles. Also somebody would probably end up making a car adder script anyway.

All vehicles are placed by the SCM.
I have tried to spawn a boat before, but it 'sploded before it hit the water. I probably just need to disable the checks for the vehicle being sunk.
If boats are synced, they are probably synced very poorly. I have tested a Dodo and there was extremely poor sync. If boats are synced well, then I could place some, but I would have to replace other vehicles to do so as I did with the Ambulances.

I think that's because MTA 0.5 is set to have vehicles explode upon touching the water, so boats will do the same then.

It is. It's just a question of bypassing that code.

So Server's won't be able custom place vehicles on .map files?

VC does not have any .map files I have no idea what the hell you're talking about

I managed to get the respawn code to not blow up the boat as soon as it hit the water and it respawns properly too. Everybody's afk right now so can't test if there's boat sync
