Ped type

Article issues
This article has one or multiple issues listed below. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page. The section for GTA IV needs to be changed to fit with the other table. The ped.dat documentation needs some confirmation.

Pedestrian types are groups that define the relationship between different pedestriants. For San Andreas the default type for each pedestrian is defined inside the peds.ide file. The type is also an additional parameter of the ped creating opcodes (009A and similar).

Since GTA IV pedestrian types are called relationship groups (See SET_CHAR_RELATIONSHIP_GROUP).

Relationship groups

Different pedestrian types can get a defined relationship to pedestrians of other types. Those relationships are grouped by keywords or indices and get defined inside the script for GTA III and GTA Vice City or can be predefined inside the ped.dat file for GTA San Andreas and GTA IV.

The following table shows a table of relationship groups:

		Description
1	Respect	A relationship group respects another one.
2	Like	A relationship group will not attack another one.
3	Ignore	A relationship group will ignore another one.
4	Dislike	A relationship group will react more aggressive towards another one.
5	Hate	A relationship group will attack another one.

In addition it is possible to define threats and aspects or relationship groups the pedestrian type avoids. If a pedestrian type is defined to handle an aspect as threat he runs away as soon as such an situation happens near enought to him. If a pedestrian avoids a specified situation he acts more carefully in the same case. Threats or avoided situations can not only be other pedestrian types, also explosions, dead pedestrians, guns or vehicle groups.
