Network Id's

[zorg93]

Just for people trying to get into scripting and wondering why peoples mods can control other peoples cars, heres some functions to do with getting control of cars

first add these to your natives.h file, they arent all needed for this, but there just a few useful ones added

extern bool REQUEST_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(int netid);
extern void GET_PED_FROM_NETWORK_ID(int netid, Ped *ped);
extern void GET_VEHICLE_FROM_NETWORK_ID(int netid, Vehicle *vehicle);
extern void GET_OBJECT_FROM_NETWORK_ID(int netid, Object *obj);
extern void GET_NETWORK_ID_FROM_PED(Ped ped, int *netid);
extern void GET_NETWORK_ID_FROM_OBJECT(Object obj, int *netid);
extern void GET_NETWORK_ID_FROM_VEHICLE(Vehicle vehicle, int *netid);
extern bool DOES_OBJECT_EXIST_WITH_NETWORK_ID(int netid);
extern bool DOES_VEHICLE_EXIST_WITH_NETWORK_ID(int netid);
extern bool DOES_PED_EXIST_WITH_NETWORK_ID(int netid);
extern bool HAS_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(int netid);
extern void SET_NETWORK_ID_CAN_MIGRATE(int netid, bool value);
extern bool IS_NETWORK_SESSION(void);
extern void SET_NETWORK_ID_EXISTS_ON_ALL_MACHINES(int netid, bool value);
extern void SET_PED_EXISTS_ON_ALL_MACHINES(Ped ped, bool exists);
extern void SET_OBJECT_EXISTS_ON_ALL_MACHINES(Object obj, bool exists);
extern void SET_CAR_EXISTS_ON_ALL_MACHINES(Vehicle vehicle, bool exists);
extern bool DOES_PLAYER_HAVE_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(Player player, int netid);

how i get control of a network id

bool getconrtol(int networkid){
if (!IS_NETWORK_SESSION())return true; //included so the script will also work offline
if (HAS_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(networkid))return true;
int count;
while(!HAS_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(networkid) && count <1000){
REQUEST_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(networkid);
count++;
WAIT(0);
}
return HAS_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(networkid);
}

then to use this on other players cars use this or similar, note im not showing how to get the handle for another players vehicle here(for noobs what pVehicle is)

Vehicle pVehicle;
int netid;
GET_NETWORK_ID_FROM_VEHICLE(pVehicle, &netid);
if (getcontrol(netid)){
SET_NETWORK_ID_CAN_MIGRATE(netid, 0);//only necessary if you wanna do things that take a while, like apply a force to their car, wait, then delete it or similar
//insert all the crap stuff you wanna do to it
SET_CAR_VISIBLE(pVehicle, 0);//just to see it working
SET_NETWORK_ID_CAN_MIGRATE(netid, 1);//same with line above, if that isnt included, dont include this
}

note this will work for ped/object handles, but you cant take control of a players ped using this method, and things like GET_CLOSEST_CHAR dont work for spawned peds and grabbing object handles is rather confusing, but possible. but if you figure it out the natives are pretty similar GET_NETWORK_ID_FROM_OBJECT(object, &netid); GET_NETWORK_ID_FROM_PED(ped, &netid);

how to protect yourself from this happening to your car, best run on each cycle so it refreshes itself when you get in another car, and lets other people drive the car when you leave it

int vehicle, id, driver, you;
bool protect;
void protection(void){
you = GetPlayerPed();
	GET_CAR_CHAR_IS_USING(you,&vehicle);
		if(DOES_VEHICLE_EXIST(vehicle)){
			if(!protect){
				GET_DRIVER_OF_CAR(vehicle,&driver);
				if(driver == you){
					GET_NETWORK_ID_FROM_VEHICLE(vehicle,&id);
					if(HAS_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(id)){
						SET_NETWORK_ID_CAN_MIGRATE(id,false);
						protect = true;
					}
				}
			}
		}
		else if(protect && HAS_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(id)){
			SET_NETWORK_ID_CAN_MIGRATE(id,true);
			protect = false;			
		}		
}

rather not use that all the time and want to find out who is taking control of your car and trying to abuse their mods instead, use this then which will print the name of the person who has control of a car that you are in the driver seat of

void checkcar(void){
int vehicle, you = GetPlayerPed(), driver, netid, player;
GET_CAR_CHAR_IS_USING(you, &vehicle);
if (!DOES_VEHICLE_EXIST(vehicle))return;
GET_DRIVER_OF_CAR(vehicle, &driver);
if (driver != you)return;
GET_NETWORK_ID_FROM_VEHICLE(vehicle, &netid);
if (HAS_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(netid))return;
for(player=0;player<16;player++){
if (!IS_NETWORK_PLAYER_ACTIVE(player))continue;
if (player == you)continue;
if (DOES_PLAYER_HAVE_CONTROL_OF_NETWORK_ID(player, netid)){
PRINT_STRING_WITH_TWO_LITERAL_STRINGS_NOW("STRING", GET_PLAYER_NAME(player), " has taken control of your car", 2500, 1);//some people seem to have trouble with this native, i never have but if you do, use the one below instead, it just shows their name, nothing else
//PRINT_STRING_WITH_LITERAL_STRING_NOW("STRING", GET_PLAYER_NAME(player), 2500, 1);
return;}
}
}

i have already come up with a few fun things to do with people that i'm working on creating right now

also,
it wasn't like he was trying to contact me, he accused me of trying to "freeze him" and said when someone tries to freeze him it makes him leave the game. i hadn't tried to freeze him at all so i was arguing with him about how i never tried to freeze anyone, then he just all of a sudden says he's "Alex from psx-scene". i assumed he was talking about JDMAlex, no big deal at all just wondering

What was his Gamertag? I've seen one guy saying he was JDMAlex on his profile not too long ago.

not at all, go crazy with them, anything to make evades rip offs seem a waste of money
