[Suggestion] Ability to connect an NPC to a defined player ID

[EvilShadeZ]

Being able to connect an NPC to a specific ID would help in terms of server development.?

Let's say my server has 100 player slots and I would like another 100 npc's, I would rather have them connected in slots 100-199 than being mixed in with regular players.



By having NPC's in higher slots, I can reduce Player Information array sizes to the appropriate size to only include players, meanwhile I could create NPC specific arrays that handle NPC-Specific?information.

Good one suggestion ????

I thought NPCs were already allocated from MAX_PLAYERS down.

Unfortunately that's not the case in SA-MP. They get assigned from ID 0 upwards. Quite messy when players get mixed in-between NPC slots.

I do like the idea of assigning them from MAX_PLAYERS down though.

That's an FCNPC feature.
