    {
        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 gearState = strval(cmdtext[21]);

        NPC_SetVehicleGearState(npcid, gearState);
        SendClientMessage(playerid, 0x00FF00FF, "NPC %d vehicle gear state set to %d", npcid, gearState);

        return 1;

## Notes

-   Only works when NPC is piloting an aircraft
-   Uses the same constants as [Vehicle Landing Gear States](https://omp.itsneufox.com/docs/scripting/resources/landinggearstate): LANDING\_GEAR\_STATE\_DOWN and LANDING\_GEAR\_STATE\_UP
-   Check current landing gear state with NPC\_GetVehicleGearState
