General config values are at the top of client.lua, and permission config values are at the top of the server.lua.
To use it, simply press ctrl.
This only gives the illusion of controlling NPCs. It actually just does some sweet buttery smooth camera tweening and ped replacing to accomplish it.
Pressing ctrl when aiming directly at a ped will switch to that ped.
Pressing ctrl when looking (But not aiming) at a ped will also switch to that ped.
Pressing ctrl when not aiming or looking in the general direction of a ped will switch to a random ped.
I disabled animal random ped changes, as there is an animals to peds ratio of like 1:10 in the GTA countryside, so you're basically guarunteed to switch to an animal.
