FiveM native has changed it's name - but still works with it's old name?

Hi!

I would like to know, what happens, when FiveM native changes inside DB and what (if any) it has an effect. I don’t even really know how to ask about this, I would really appreciate, if anyone could explain this to me, thank you!

Before, it was SetVehicleEngineMultiplier, now it’s renamed as ModifyVehicleTopSpeed.

While I can’t explain on a technical level how the Elements do it, I can only assume they allow the native to work by it’s old same for the sake of backwards compatibility, so that when they do change the name, all the scripts that use it’s old name do not break.

The old name will likely work with an old manifest version and not the universal manifest version (05cfa83c-a124-4cfa-a768-c24a5811d8f9)

No, universal is explicitly meant to support all names.

Anyway - these new names are usually the original R* names once new findings are done, old names are ‘kept’ so that scripts don’t break indeed.
