⚠️ CRITICAL SAVE FILE WARNING ON PEDESTRIAN CODES
Never save your game after activating ITSALLGOINGMAAAD, NOBODYLIKESME, or
WEAPONSFORALL. These cheats permanently overwrite the pedestrian AI behavior routines directly
into your active GTA3sf*.b save file. Saving will make mission-givers and key NPCs hostile or
get them killed, making 100% completion impossible.
