# NPC\_IsStreamedIn

warning

This function was added in omp v1.5.8.3079 and will not work in earlier versions!

## Description

Checks if an NPC is streamed in for a specific player.

| Name | Description |

| npcid | The ID of the NPC |
| playerid | The ID of the player to check |

## Returns

Returns `true` if the NPC is streamed in for the player, `false` otherwise.

## Examples

```c
public OnPlayerCommandText(playerid, cmdtext[])
{
    if (!strcmp(cmdtext, "/checkstreamedin", true))
    {
        new npcid = PlayerNPC[playerid];
        if (npcid == INVALID_NPC_ID)
            return SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFF0000FF, "You are not debugging a NPC.");

        if (!NPC_IsValid(npcid))
            return SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFF0000FF, "Invalid NPC.");

        new bool:isStreamedIn = NPC_IsStreamedIn(npcid, playerid);

        SendClientMessage(playerid, 0x00FF00FF, "NPC %d is streamed in for you: %s", npcid, isStreamedIn ? "Yes" : "No");
        return 1;
    }
    return 0;
}
```

## Notes

-   NPCs are only streamed in when within the player's streaming distance
-   Streaming depends on distance and interior/virtual world matching
