A term '''thread''' means some kind of minimal process in computer science. Processes and threads are used to simulate parallel execution of programcode. But there is a difference between both: a process describes the execution of a whole program. It contains an image of the programs binary executeable code in memory just as it is used for handling memory allocation by the operating system. However a thread is nothing in this way. It does just describe a parallel execution of code inside a process, so one process can hold multiple threads.

The description above is just one very simple definition of a thread. GTA simplifies multithreading alot so everything the script needs to do is to start a thread and perhaps end it somehow. It does not need to handle variable synchronisation or communication between two threads. This is what the game does through internal routines.

== Mission Script ==
[[Opcode]]s:
* [[00D7]] – Creates a thread
* [[004F]] – Creates a thread with additional parameters
* [[004E]] – Ends the current thread
* [[03A4]] – Gives a thread a name
* [[0459]] – Ends a named thread

''[[CLEO]] Opcodes'':
* [[0A92]] – Creates a ''CLEO'' thread
* [[0A93]] – Ends a ''CLEO'' thread
* [[0A95]] – Enables thread saving for a ''CLEO'' thread
* [[0A9F]] – Returns the pointer to the current thread
* [[0AAA]] – Returns the pointer to a named thread
* [[0ABA]] – Ends a named ''CLEO'' thread
