Advanced Ped Looting: Loot Tables for Any NPC

Where it fits

A hunter shoots a boar and picks up meat. A gang member drops cash. A boss NPC at the end of a heist leaves something rare. All three are the same resource: any ped in the game can drop loot when it dies, and players pick it up with a short animation.

Three levels of loot table

1. By group, such as gangs, animals or businessmen
2. By model, for example every zombie ped
3. By entity, through an export that gives one specific ped its own table, which is how other scripts can hand a unique drop to their NPC

Money and items can both drop. By default loot falls on death; optionally it can drop when the ped ragdolls.

Resource use

• 0.00ms idle
• 0.01ms near a dropped item
• Higher while 3D text is rendering
