A simple game of shooting tires for $$.

• $100 each tire
• $1000 all four
• Ped must be alive in car for flat to count
• Cars must be on the same street as player, no sniping
• Car will explode if you shoot out all four tires
• Simple UI to ease game play with single key start/stop
• Sound with score tally and payout
• Wanted level still rises so you should be sneaky in your approach

Background

This mod is something I created while learning Lua and GTA V modding. This is a work in progress, I welcome your testing and ideas. I am learning a lot by building this and welcome suggestions, code changes and improvements.
A big thanks to ZyDevs for all the help and support providing direction how to start with example code hints.

Known Issues

• There is a known delay of receiving reward after shooting tire. Some of this has to do with cars leaving the radius before being counted.
• Four-wheel drive cars and motor cycles are not counted
• Wanted level still rises, suggested using this with the Trainer to avoid police. will fix this next release.
• Sound sucks

Future features/improvements

• Would like to figure out how to track bullet impacts to improve performance and open new features and game modes.
• Levels and timer
• Remove wanted level and add new abilities
• Better sound and effects. Looking for game sound hash list if anyone has one

Share and learn

I am new to Lua and GTA modding. Any suggestions on performance, or code improvements are welcome.
