Error: Parse error on line 4:
...ar",	"frames": [		("bmp": "RallyCar.pn
---------------------^
Expecting 'STRING', 'NUMBER', 'NULL', 'TRUE', 'FALSE', '{', '[', ']', got 'undefined'

Error: Parse error on line 11:
...	}],	"v2": true}][{	"id": "$garage.r
--------------------^
Expecting 'EOF', '}', ',', ']', got '['

I dont understand why there is an error, the brackets are fine and I dont see anything rong with v2

Yes I know its probaly obvious or easy to understand but gimme a break

[CommanderABab]

Expecting a comma, there between ][.

[CommanderABab]

V2 is just the start of the line.

[Barky]

But if I add comma all I get is

Code: Select all

Error: Parse error on line 11:
...	}],	"v2": true}], [{	"id": "$garage
--------------------^
Expecting 'EOF', got ','

It's confusing to me

Code: Select all

[
  {
    // Car
  },
  {
    // Building
  }
]

A JSON file can either contain a top level object {} or a top level array []. For plugins we use a top level array, therefore our base structure looks like

Code: Select all

[
...
]

Within this top level array we define objects separated by commas.

For this reason something like

Code: Select all

[
...
],
[
...
]

is not valid JSON syntax.

[Barky]

Thank you Lobby, I understand now!

[Barky]

Ok I am officially sick of this

JSONLint says it's valid
I see no problem

Wont work

[Barky]

Nope

Downloaded Zip
Unlocked Zip
Put it in plug in folder
Went in game
Nothing there

It doesnt crash or anything it doesnt show up in game or in "pt"
I will pm you a link

[Barky]

I sent you link in PM
See for yourself

[Barky]

facepalm

Thats how it saved automatically

Thanks

[Barky]

Well its finally in game, however it isnt spawning the kart

Am I missing something in code?
It should spawn then randomly go on the track

[Barky]

Is it the height and width of go kart maybe?

[CommanderABab]

You dont need quotes around 512 and 1 there. Ok, so you have 1 tiny car within a radius of 512. Might take a while to see it.

[Barky]

But is there a way to make it automatically spawn and roam around (only on the track) like emergency vehicleS?

Yes there is!

Please search the documentation. Keywords flags, x flags, own cars, spawn.

Your rally cars cannot drive on your rally track because you didn't set flags for them. You might add

Code: Select all

"flag user5": true,
"flag normal": false,

to the car, too.

For bigger cities it might help to add

Code: Select all

"car local only":true

as described here to your building so a valid target building is always found.
