Please don't populate too many vehicles in one area. It can cause serious lag and seriously impact frame rates on low end pcs (more so than restricting the number of models!)
600 vehicles in LV - We very rarely hit 60 players. And if we did, 10 vehicles to a player, only in one city?
Honestly, from my experience of doing vehicle layouts a lot, I'll be surprised if you guys can fill LV (city) with more than half that amount (whilst it remaining lag free).
Anyway progress on the new vehicle handler is going smooth. I've ran some initial tests which are going well and will almost have it ready. It has some great new features that will seriously enhance the vehicle layout. Everything about a vehicle now saves - including it's colour (unless setting it to a random colour), vehicle mods, paint jobs, world, interior, custom name, number plate, access level (i.e. VIP/Admin), owner, etc. (Although I doubt the owner field will be used just yet
)
It would be cool if, when saving some vehicles in the new layout, we could add some mods to them (EG fully pimp out some of the Sultans, maybe add NOS to the occasional vehicle, hydros on some low-riders, etc)
I'll keep you updated with progress.
