SA:O APISynchronized NPCs and road traffic

Reports whether the calling resource still owns a live native ambient group.

Syntax

Copy signature

bool isPedNativeGroupActive(int token)

Arguments

tokenint

Group token.

Returns

true only while the resource and native group lease are current.

Ownership and lifecycle

Candidate queries create nothing. A multiplayer resource must validate each proposal, create and own the real NPCs and vehicles, assign one current syncer, handle ownership changes, and clean up every element. Native AI and event tokens belong to the calling resource and are revoked when that resource stops.
