SA:O APINative mission text

Clears owned messages/help and releases the exclusive mission-text lease.

Syntax

Copy signature

bool releaseMissionText()

Returns

true when the calling resource released its lease; false otherwise.

Ownership and lifecycle

GTA only has one mission-text table, so one resource owns it at a time. San Andreas Online clears tracked HUD pointers before releasing that ownership.

Important behavior

• The loaded block remains cached until another owner replaces it.
