San Andreas Multiplayer - Beta 2

SA:MP team member kyeman has posted a list of the bugs that needed fixing and says the next official beta test is ready and will be released soon.

• Fixed the problems related to the EU version.
• Fixed passengers not always showing their weapons.
• Fixed the movements players made without knowing it.
• Fixed the visibility of remote players while aiming.
• Weapons can now be used inside buildings, too.
• Cheaters are banned automatically.
• The server also checks max_players and limits the number of bots.
• The radio is the most-improved part. If you tune it even once, it switches off immediately and there's silence.

He also told us what is coming in the future:

• Chat will be extended to ASCII, which supports Polish and Russian characters if you set that language as your default.
• The number of chatters will be increased.
• Checkpoints will also show up on the radar.
• You'll be able to turn on a floating arrow that marks the players.
• We'll be able to use the tuning shops, too.

So when can we try it out?

"The truth is, I don't know. We'll rework the beta a bit with 10-20 players before we make it public. Assuming we don't find a serious bug during the test, which is filling up my weekends."
