- Syntax
- {{{syntax1}}}
- Parameter
This opcode lets the player spawn and remotely control an RC Bandit. The RC Bandit needs to be loaded using opcode 0247 or else the game will crash. The opcode is meant to be used while the player is in a vehicle. When it's used properly, an RC Bandit is created and the camera and controls will focus on the Bandit. The player is not controllable while this is happening. The controls for the Bandit is the same as a car. The Bandit can self destruct by pressing the attack button or by colliding into the wheel of any vehicles. The player is not immune to the Bandit's destruction. After the Bandit is destroyed, the camera fades and repositions to the player. The player regains full control and the Bandit is removed.
If the opcode is used while the player is on foot, the player is fully controllable while controlling the Bandit. The player can even enter and drive other vehicles while controlling the Bandit. Controls for the Bandit is different when on foot than when in a car.
This opcode is superseded in Vice City and San Andreas by opcode 046E, which can use any vehicle in the game but lacks the instant explosion upon contact that the Bandit has.
