It would be nice to have that implemented, however there has to be a kind of quick release that still takes 2 seconds to release the radio, so you can take it out when you no longer want to leave it in your car. Only the owner of the car should have a "demobilizer" attached to their key that can release the radio regardless of who's radio it is. (after a 2 second delay like filling water, you can also unlock the radio and pull it out)

If its possible, it would be cool to be able to link speakers to the same channel so you can play one track on the main speaker, and all 3 other linked speakers play the same track simultaneously. Would add more emersion at parties, would work nicely for all kinds of events. It would also be quite cool if you could connect a microphone to the system but that may be a whole new code.

Possible to script something like a lock on the car radio? In order to steal it you have to use a screwdriver to "release" the radio, unlocking it and allowing for the thief to steal it. Makes no sense that someone can just break in and take a car radio instantly. Especially at a petrol station or something. I know you can report this behavior but the above mention will prevent non RP completely.

+1 some combination that makes you "trip" would be so cool. Does not effect your health, as its a minor scratch.

However, weed grows on trees and weed can make you money... lots of it. We use it for many things in this city, making it a staple source for many main course dishes. Its quick and easy to grow, simple to handle, but hard to sneak past the Pigs. The only thing that can set them off the trail is a 12 pack of donuts and some coffee. We always try to keep a box of donuts close by, incase we run into any issues with the hoof toes. You never know when it might save your ass. Rychkov is hard at work, maintaining a steady income to build capital for the family. With this cash, he plans on setting up an entry package for all associates that wish to be apart of the family for life. The package will include a standard Pistol .50 with ammo, some formal clothing specifically picked for associates and lower ranks. This will be the trademark outfit for our soldiers. We will also provide a radio set to the family channel. These tools should help our associates achieve what they want, with a little bit of force behind them. They are expected to take care of these assets to the best of their ability, as the next one will have to be paid for by them. Associates and soldiers are expected to invest in themselves, to become a more valuable asset to the family. They are expected to hold at least one firearm at all times, so that when it comes time for assistance, they are ready, loaded and prepared to take out anyone that crosses the Table wrongly. This trait is what we test extensively throughout the association phase. After a long days work, Rychkov decided to hit the pier for a beer, watching the sunset. Gold skies and cash in the pocket, it doesn't get much better than that. Things are looking up. The flame is still burning. We won't stop till we get what we want. Respect is an interesting thing. Hard to obtain sometimes, but a valuable thing to possess. Each step is a step closer to the top. Things will run differently in this city, so long as The Bratva hold their presence.

Trouble is brewing back home. With the war ongoing, and families being separated, it is with great sadness that we see off our two brothers for some time. Two valuable Table members. The Bratva would not be where it is right now if it was not for them. A priority of utmost importance is awaiting them back home. Till we meet again brothers! DASVIDANIYA До свидания With the brothers sent off on their way back home, it was time for a new face to enter the Table. Rychkov has been a valuable member to the team and has proven his dedication to the family in countless ways. He has exceeded The Tables expectations and it was only a matter of time that he would get a golden ticket into the most prestigious Russian Crime Mob in Los Santos. An invitation to become a Table Head member. The honor of holding such a title comes with great responsibility and risk. Though the rewards far outweigh the risk. A new chapter for The Bratva has begun. Though two valuable heads of The Table have taken leave temporarily, Rychkov is not alone. His old boss, now co-partner in the family, Joey Galati, is still around to help him create an empire. Their goals are aligned and their mission is set. To become the most influential mob in the city. To control the inner workings, run the blood through the veins of Los Santos. This has always been an end-goal for the family. But cautious steps need to be taken from here on out. Without trust, you have no control.

I am not always looking and sometimes forget, which happens in real life too. Then the sound kicks in and I know I need to find a petrol station close by.

I'd love to see a proper visual & audio indicator for reserve tank. When the vehicle hits 10%, it should make a sound and you are notified visually somehow, to replicate the bright orange light that's impossible to miss when in the car. The visual reference also needs to be obvious, as to match with the sound, for our deaf friends too (currently the bottom right indicator is just not alarming enough, as it would be in a car)

+1 it could be tweaked in the ratio, like you cannot syphon to 0% because the tube cannot reach the reserve tank. So a player is always left with 10% fuel.

Along with the ability to syphon petrol, a jerrycan should also be refillable at the gas station. Its silly to throw away a jerrycan after using the fuel inside. This falls in line with realism. A jerrycan is now useful and not stupidly overpriced. People have a reason to keep them safe. Jerrycans will then become a common thing to put in your trunk, allowing for a little more for everyone. More to steal, more to adapt and more fun and exciting. Empty jerrycans can be sold at a pawnshop for 45% cost. People will start storing their reserve tank jerrycans, players can now assist other players who have run out of fuel, making things more social. Criminals will target cars in hopes there will be a jerrycan in the boot. People leave nothing in their cars these days. A jerrycan should weigh at least 15 vol when full. That way its a burden to carry around for most people. If petrol can be syphoned, this would be interesting too, and will add a lot of roleplay options for criminals and civilians. More so for civilians who want to help someone stranded with no petrol station and an empty jerrycan.

Snake! I only have 1, can you make your own advert? You lazy frog.

Most of the time, mechanics get called out for road-side repair anyways and I find it pretty silly that they can repair a totaled car, with two hands and a wrench on the side of the road. A totaled car should only be repairable at a mechanic workshop, Bayview being for the criminal world, and LSC for general public.

You have to select the vehicle first, and then request a mechanic so the script knows which vehicle it is targeting and can gain any metadata in the system, in order for the script to function. Plus this opens up a possibility for people driving their friend's vehicle who have a set of keys. They can select the vehicle, and if they have a permanent key, they can call out a towing company to tow it to the mechanic. They can leave the car there or chose to meet with the owner/friend to get it repaired.

The strict entry requirements. Its a different job to mechanics. It will provide another option for people who need two vehicles to go somewhere without bothering mechanics. Its a legitimate service that's available IRL, and mostly privatized. I get that it is easier to just dump a whole bunch of responsibilities on one faction because they can handle it, but think about the avenues that will open up if you have a readily available towing service. There have been many times I need to get two vehicles to one destination. Towing should not be an LSC or Bayview responsibility. They should repair at the shop or do call outs with necessary tools in their vans. Towing puts strain on Bayview and LSC and should only be used in dire situations when the car is really not fixable, road-side or RPly. When a car is so severely damaged, the customer has to always get it towed to the shop so it can realistically be repaired with the proper tools. There should be a script that kicks in for cars that are totaled. It should be implemented into the call out which notifies the mechanic that the vehicle needs towing. Besides, how many times have you needed to get a mechanic in the city and you sit there for 30 minutes because no one is available to come to you, though there are 6 mechanics online, 1 at LSC and 5 at Bayview. If there was a script to indicate the company each online mechanic is working at, then you would at least have that information and have a choice to leave the car and come back another time. With a private towing option, you could get your car towed to Bayview. This will obviously come at quite a big cost, but that is the sacrifice you need to make in order to get the service you require, instead of waiting for the sun to go down. Mechanic towing should be free and more lucrative in terms of cost saving. This incentivizes people to try a mechanic first, before calling a private towing company. That way, the towing wont be redundant for mechanics.

Press Play Another day on the streets, The Bratva were on the lookout for brothers and sisters from their home region. To band together, blood and soil. We take pride in our culture and try to help our Eastern European comrades in Los Santos. We help each other. For generations, this has been standard practice, since the day of the Soviet Union. We will never forget those valuable lessons our ancestors have instilled into us. Loyalty and togetherness. This is what made the Soviet Union so powerful. Though he is new to the city, we met a fellow brother on the streets. He moved to the city to escape the chaos that ensues back home. With no place to go, no money to make, lost and hopeless, we gave him a chance to prove himself, prove his loyalty, and in return he would receive a new family. One that has his back. One that sees his goals and mission. One that could provide a home, a place to be, a purpose. After long discussions ensued, Boris, Joey and Rychie were satisfied with the desires of the new associate. He was briefed with the Thieve's Laws and asked to pledge to them for life. He agreed. He was given two options. One was to remain legal, have a clean slate, maintain a gun license for family protection. Two was to forfeit his life for the cause, a life of crime, danger and risk. He was smart, and decided it is best to choose both options, to remain inconspicuous, but would not mind getting his hands dirty, so long as the evidence was erased and he was guaranteed protection from the Pigs. Rychkov and Boris discussed the pro's and cons of the choice and agreed it may be beneficial. They allowed the choice, and would watch the new associate go about doing this to test its viability and possibility. We are adaptable and we do not force anyone to do something they do not want to do. With the risks laid on the table, the Associate agreed and pledged to The Bratva. With the associate pledged, and a round of tequilas passed around as a welcoming, it was time to head to PONSONBY'S - the family's most favorited clothing store. The Bratva decided to invest in some clothing for the new associate, as he was new to the city and already struggling to reach month end. We uphold a high standard when it comes to formal attire, and everything has to be perfect, as we have to look presentable when doing high-end business. A set of the best fit shirt, pants and shoes were bought for the new associate. Boris took the opportunity to grab a new suit, as someone in the office decided to borrow his for an unknown amount of time. Rychkov took the opportunity to demonstrate the level of preparedness when rolling around with The Table, or one of their members. We stand guard for any situation, no matter the location. The city if full of rats who want to eat at the toenails. The soldiers of the family have to keep three eyes open at all times, to protect The Table from any incidents. A soldier should always take the rap for a fellow thief. This has been a motto for centuries.

could fall under licensing i.e [Towing License]

Or you have LSC and Bayview issue permits for private towing which gives you the ability to tow, as you are trained and skilled when you get your permit. Refer to:

Both truck versions can allow for dual partnership, slowing down their collection rate but increasing their return you would only have to split 2 ways. You can even go as far as having 1 driver, 1 in passenger seat and 2 on the back.

Yeah I tried my best to calculate it and the above scenarios would be most ideal and balanced. It also relieves some of the stress that comes with garbage, as you are constantly doing something and that can be a bit tiring for the brain. This would help split the workload, driver gets to relax more when stationary, and the two guys on the back get to relax while on the move.

Your permit can be revoked if you break the law and you will no longer be able to assist in towing player vehicles.

Private towing companies as freelance job. Similar to trucking, a person can make a request for a private towing company. The job will come up similar to the trucking dispatches. Players can choose to increase the bonus if they want their car to be towed first. The tow should be standard $1000 + (distance meter calculator similar to that of taxis). Government should subsidize these deliveries so the tow employee makes a fair amount in commission, and should get bonuses from completing 5 tows, similar to that of trucking (I think this bonus is quite low and should be increased by the way, to $2000 and not the meager $200 that its at right now). This should also allow for custom tow trucks to be used. The more you pay, the less effort you have to put in to rig the car to your truck (like in real life) In addition, police can request the private towing company to assist in towing a vehicle to the impound lot. (to be escorted by police) How it works: "A player has tried the mechanics call out request and has not received a response" The player has two options. 1. Wait it out and hope that the mechanics will respond eventually. 2. Cancel the request and call in a private towing company to assist. Commands: /towrequest (bonus amount) (message) Towing job: A dispatch for towing has been sent out. Callout fee - $1000. (order number) To accept, type /towaccept (ordernumber) The driver of the broken vehicle rides along with the towing employee to the destination that is required. A taxi meter system can also be implemented as it would in real life. An additional server-side towing request could be scripted in every 5 minutes with a max of 5 server-side dispatches where the tower heads to a destination and loads the cargo, similar to trucking, to help with job creation for new tow employees who do not have experience. Once they have a certain amount of tows under their belt, they can apply for a towing permit that allows them to tow player vehicles. The permit can be issued by LSC or Bayview. This will guide players on how to properly RP a towing situation and will avoid new players from nonrp situations.

1. Commission based work Gives incentive for mechanics to actually work on cars. The funds should be covered by Government (scriptly and not related to the business) 2. Increase the pay per hour for mechanics Gives incentive for mechanics to actually go on shift. Lots of players just move on to something more interactive that makes 2-3x more money and quit their mechanic jobs. 3. Indicate where the mechanics on shift are based when calling for an MR. Currently the /mechanic request displays all mechanics online, it should show LSC: 0 and Bayview: 6 so you know you will have to either cancel the request if you are in the city and no one is at LSC, or you have to make a plan (private towing) to get your car to Bayview. 4. Private towing companies as freelance job. Similar to trucking, a person can make a request for a private towing company. The job will come up similar to the trucking dispatches. Players can choose to increase the bonus if they want their car to be towed first. The tow should be standard $1500 + (amount bonus). Government should subsidies these deliveries so the tow employee makes a fair amount in commission, and should get bonuses from completing 5 tows, similar to that of trucking (I think this bonus is quite low and should be increased by the way, to $2000 and not the pathetic $200 that its at right now). This should also allow for custom tow trucks to be used. The more you pay, the less effort you have to put in to rig the car to your truck (like in real life) In addition, police can request the private towing company to assist in towing a vehicle out to the impound lot.
