What is it?

The dumpdoc system is a mechanism for dumping scripting documentation to disk, in a folder called "Documentation"

How do I use it?

For the client, /dumpdoc can be typed in-game in the chatbox.
For the server, dumpdoc (no slash) can be typed in the server console

What are these documentation files?

The dumpdoc system creates four XML files:

  • Documentation.xml contains a list of all available script types and functions
  • EventTypes.xml contains a list of all events, to be used with addEventHandler or bindEventHandler
  • Defines.xml contains a list of all static defines/constants
  • Commands.xml contains a list of all commands that were available at the time (including commands added by running scripts)

Where can I find them?

Client

A folder called Documentation is generated in GTAC client's local app data directory, when the command is used.
The directory can be accessed in Windows Explorer using: %localappdata%\Jack's Mini Network\Grand Theft Auto Connected\

Server

A folder called Documentation is generated in the root server directory, when the command is used.
