0.2 information topic:

Debug Mode:

When you load debug it goes into single player - this is now correct. Commands still work however F11 and F12 crash currently. There is also a debug script mode:

Topic

Internal Errors:

If you get these reinstall, it means SA:MP has detected mods and is refusing to let you play as mods are not allowed.

The number provided is an internal state value, but the cause is the same.

One of your files is modded, this could be one of SA:MP's files or one of your game files.

If you have an internal error, we highly recommend you uninstall GTA:SA, delete the folder, reinstall SA, and then install the 0.2 files.

Connection Messages:

These have been removed as if you don't want them they're annoying and if you do want them they're very easy to add via PAWN.

Animations:

Topic

SetTimerEx, CallRemoteFunction and CallLocalFunction:

These require a special type of format parameter to describe the parameters you are passing. These are the same parameters as are used by sscanf (which is FAR better than strtok for getting parameters from commands).

A full description is available here.

Nightvision/Infrared:

These have never once been mentioned by the dev team, I don't know why so many people think they work because they don't.

Trams:

Trams are not fully natively supported by SA:MP however there is code to assist:

Topic

Text Draw:

A long standing bane of the SCM coding scene, while relatively simple to get working it can take hours of tweaking to get to look right.

Topic

Number Plates:

Basically - set the number plate and respawn the vehicle.

Topic

Gravity:

Default gravity is 0.008 NOT 1.

Tyre Popping:

Readded.

Compatibility Issues:

Compiler compatibility topic.

OnPlayerDisconnect now has a reason parameter:

public OnPlayerDisconnect(playerid, reason) {}

0 = Timeout

SetPlayerSkin is now persistent across respawns.

6 is LSPD Interior.

EDIT: I've decided a better name for this interior would be Generic Police Interior. As if you got the co-ords from the LSPD station and set a player to spawn from it you'd spawn inside all fancy and well - but the marker takes you to Red County Police Station; so I assume that the game does something when you enter through the marker to make sure you go out the correct door.

So in short... this "is" the LSPD Interior but it is also used as an interior for other police stations. Spawning in here then walking outside takes you to Red County..

Well stacked Pizza - 5
Tatoo Shop - 16

I believe 14 is The Johnson House according to Cam's San Fierro TDM Script.
