Similar to opcode 009A, this opcode creates a character in the passenger seat of a vehicle. Using this opcode requires an existing vehicle and opcode 0247 to load the model of the character or else the game could crash. Characters can even be created in wrecked vehicles as long as the vehicle exists. Without further additions, if the player enters the vehicle with the character, the character will exit the vehicle. Additional opcodes like 0526 are needed to prevent them from doing that.
If you create a character in a non-existent seat, the character will still be created inside the vehicle but it will be invisible. Certain actions that would normally make the character voluntarily exit the vehicle won't work but opcodes can force the character to exit the vehicle.
