Map Editor Limit of Custom Elements!

[DarkLink]

So guys recently I asked how to do this by scripting, and then someone helped me.

Then a MTA Team Member come on the topic and told that this could be done by them, so all map editors would have it

The topic is here:

viewtopic.php?f=91&t=33734&p=352987&hilit=client+server#p352987

I wanna know if there were some progress on this..? Can MTA Team give me an answer ? If yes, I would like too see in roadmap, could give me link

Well anyway would like some answer, if u guys will do it or not.

Thanks!

Why do you need a limit anyway? You can also tell your mappers to not place more than 4 vehicles. And did you already tried Wojak's script? That should do the job.

Tbh, I don't think this is something which has to be in the map editor by default, as it's gamemode related. If it was, and users changed the amount of maximum allowed elements, you have to edit the map editor too. An EDF will be the best solution for you

Well I need the limit because, when people try to make maps for the gamemode, it wont allow them to put more than X teleports, Y cars, Z spawnpoints.. I want to limit it for my gamemode, you see?

And this cant be done with EDF, right? it will be custom elements (cars too), I dont want them to use normal car spawn for the map

Thanks for your reply

It CAN be done with EDF, that's why I mentioned it

You can make your own elements using EDF, but also a script to prevent more than X stuff. See Wojak's script, that should really help you. Just place that EDF in your gamemode, not a separate resource.

This is why EDF exists, to allow people to make their own preferations.

There's a documentation on the wiki, but if you tell me what you exactly need, I could make some start for you. Ofcourse no full one, you gotta learn from it

The wiki describes about the custom elements you can make. But, you can always add a script to that.

Good luck, and let us know how it will work out
