Reference for GTA 1 Coding

There already exists a comprehensive site for coding using the mission.ini file in Grand Theft Auto. The site is at Missions.Gouranga and was created between Simon “Azz” Marshal and Nick “Stilton” Jones. It includes a couple of specific tutorials I wrote. These are available from the GTA 1 tutorials on this site as well, though.

I have been doing mission.ini coding since late 1998 and have created several reference documents in this time. They include exhaustive lists of valid parameters and their effect, details about coding techniques and there are some samples. These documents were written for my own use and are not easy to follow.
