Advanced Vehicle Persistance (UPDATED) 1.1

Hi, I tried the mod and unfortunately ran into several issues almost immediately.

1. There are no clear instructions on how to use it. I noticed that AVPConfig.ini is generated after launching the game, and AdvancedVehiclePersistance.json appears after saving a vehicle. The config itself is a bit confusing, but I figured out that LCtrl + L is used to lock/unlock (and possibly save) a vehicle. It would really help to have proper documentation or clearer keybind explanations.

2. I accidentally saved Franklin’s default car. It seems like the mod saves vehicles just by being near them, although I’m not sure about the exact range. I drove that car somewhere else, left it there, then returned to the safehouse using a different vehicle. When I got back, there were two Buffalos spawning in the driveway, one with a green blip and one with a white blip. It looks like the mod is also tracking story vehicles, which causes duplication. It would be helpful if there was a way to exclude main or character vehicles from being saved.

3. After reloading the game, the saved vehicle stayed where I left it, which is good, but I couldn’t use it anymore. Pressing F just plays the locked door animation. Using LCtrl + L shows a message that the vehicle is unlocked, but it still remains locked and unusable. Because of this, the vehicle basically becomes stuck after reloading. The duplicate vehicle at the safehouse also remains.

4. Vehicle modifications don’t seem to save. Any upgrades or customizations I made were gone after reloading, and the vehicle reverted back to stock.

5. I also noticed that saved vehicles show a white blip, but it disappears once you move far away. If you have multiple saved cars, it becomes hard to keep track of them. It would be really helpful if the white blips remained visible on the map at all times, so players can easily locate all their saved vehicles.

Overall, the idea of the mod is really good, but these issues make it difficult to use properly. Hope this feedback helps.

I can confirm that the assembly version logged is: 1.0.0.0

If I'm not wrong, you can fix that by doing this (I'm not a developer, so I might be wrong):

[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.1.0.0")]
[assembly: AssemblyFileVersion("1.1.0.0")]
