HI,
I remember at one time this was tried. Allowing people to use a boat to cross water but people was leaving it in the middle of the water.
Is it possible to allow people to rent or use a boat, but if it is left in the middle of the water or somewhere that it can't be reached. Can it reset after a certain amount of time inactivity?

i have a script for this. just make a building that sells a usable item, rename it to something like renta-boat. then in servergamescript.txt in your programfiles/theuniversal/data folder add this;
Event( "UseItem", "Renta-boat" )
{
*command=setvehicle %player% 4
}
you will have to change the name renta-boat to whatever your usable item was renamed to.

Thanks, What about how long they can use it?
I would like to make it where it can't be taken with them. I want it to only be used for that time they need to go on the water or maybe a certain amount of time.

once usable items are used they vanish from your inventory.
so a player could buy a boat from a boat rental shop, use the item when they cross the water, and then they would have to buy another for the next crossing.

OK, sounds good.
That will work. So they can use it until they select to a new vehicle and then it gone. Excellent
Would this work for maybe a house/tent? I am looking for a way to use a tent as a beginner or low level building with no storage.
