Diligo

Could you edit out the script and put it in the spoiler so the non-coding people can read your text? Love the idea though!

I aint complaining, before I needed to be in a truck to pick up an order, now i can take an order on my way to the truckers yard. Love it! Little problem when using parking but its only annoying when there is a fight in pillbox and quickly need to grab a pistol 0.50 stashed from the car (i dont do that personally)

+1 first person shooting while being in vehicle Back seat drivers can use SMGs? (not just micro and mini)

If there is a bridge to Cayo, then the island needs a purpose. Right now i havent got to that level but if there are deliveries there to be made with the trucking job, then it is the only thing to do there as of now. Opening up a new lab to have there (without plants) would only make it more popular. But also I dont want that only the crims have a purpose to go there A freelance job there like farming, maybe a grocery store/clothing store/bank/atms Something to do there to keep it active just enough for people to be there for a while. Right now best tactic to get people there is for events and that is about it

also if you tackle someone make their hat and glasses drop on the ground too!!

If you increase the pay for the bus drivers, you will see a lot more people using buses for transport. Surely this was not intended? I thought it was for just driving around the city and making it more lively not actually transporting people, right? Sarcasm aside, if the bus routes were recognizable and the pay was solid, it would be amazing for the server with so many interactions. Would love to see that when I get done putting my vehicle at high end, i can just run to a bus stop, wait around for a bit and join a bus full of people talking whatever shit they want to talk about and wait until I get to Legion or other place of interest

This is what I thought speaker mod was for before I discovered what it actually is

Why there was a change implemented in the first place? I still get kicked after an hour or what, when I left my PC on logged in the server and standing in my appartment and went on my business. But yeah if it took shorter amount of time previously, then why is it longer now?

-1 as others said, could be easily abused in certain scenarios to gain an advantage, its literally hacks

Blunts are like nothing compared to what other drug combinations you can use for ultimate defense. But for marijuana blunts I suggested this in another post, I think having an action timer for smoking it would be very appropriate.

The more city bees there are, the less RP interactions there will be. Taxis, hitchiking, making friends that give you rides and so on. I have had very good interactions when I helped some people out when they just then put their vehicle for sale at High End

yes i would like a weaponized ignus and a supressor to my roster. but to balance it out, give PD jet planes

Just like weazel ads in the chats, only allow VIPs to toggle the posters on the walls

There is Poker in DOC???????? or is this like an old suggestion?

I have a better solution Make the blunt with action timer Like 3 quick or 2 slow circles This would really change the game. in IC terms you try to light the blunt but you fail and drop it in the dirt or down the sewers, Real SHIT

What is even worse is when I just log into the server and get "save pov" messages in PMs... like instantly!!!! smh

Best thing I saw was a Blue Journey parked at Legion, unlocked for anyone to enter. There were /fdo notes scattered around to check it out. But naturally it got hotwired and taken away

If this gets implemented there are pros and cons to this (which could be either or) Pros or Cons: More forgiving in forum reports Have IC favoritism towards someone who gave you good feedback (Metagaming) There would be a lot of love that would be spread around (Spam) I appreciate the good /me's and /do's, but I don't want to be given any IC love from another person/faction because of my goodwilling OOC love-filled forum post. Because I wouldn't want to do it either. Relationships can change in an instant in the server. If any staff member/-s are ready to be solely responsible for reviewing good feedback about players/factions and give them goodie points, then that is a lot more paperwork, because there should be a point in it, right? How do we reward people for good RP? Maybe if everything else is not good IMO, then maybe gift some credits for Credit shop? Sitting in forums and only checking the negative posts which also have a "HOT" flair will only make you think everything is negative when in reality is actually quite positive in game. Good RP should be the standard not something to reward someone for Bad RP should be punished - which is already in place If you appreciate someone's RP that much, Discord DM will do the job. You could even make a funny compilation video of someone or a group of people making your day and post it in the Videos & Screenshots section. It will certainly mask away any other negativity. If you love and appreciate a certain faction's RP, there are Google Forms made for this for every Faction to make a positive feedback on any other factions. IMO I also appreciate someone and sometimes change my RP towards them just because of how much I like the person OOC, but that is borderline metagaming, so I try to get my character to like their character and become friends IC as well. EDIT: P.S. To encourage good RP in the server, people all around each other should do good RP. Crowd behaviour you know

@Piper Johnson does graphic design, but she only takes payment upfront

Forgot to mention in my last reply I didnt suggest removing public laundromats, if you want to get RP by getting robbed and get the hours of escalating events, go and do it, i dont know what would that be exactly, but yeah.. I only suggested what I suggested in the original post. Add something that would have a lot of negatives to have it, but at least gives comfort after spending multiple hours in roleplay possibilites that would get you robbed

So it is roleplay to possibly enter a PvP situation every time washing money in a public laundromat but it is not roleplay to clean each others money to make business? With all due respect it only shows the limitations of RP, set by Devs/Staff, not possibilities and escalations. AS this is not important to the topic, I will downsize the font of the next couple of paragraphs. That idea was just spurted out. Not one to latch on. That is a whole different forum post, but if you want to talk about it here then consider this - What if I have done my time in labs, want to invest a million to have access to a limited one table per interior setup to cook blunts and nothing more? It is extremely dumb investment if I wanted to make more money, but in the scale of things, having a couple of blunts cooking wouldnt damage the server's RP not even in the slightest bit. Literally from what I heard that was previously it was almost unlimited amounts of tables and people only had to go to humane labs to buy ingredients and grocery stores to buy water. Yeah that I agree was kind of stupid to begin with, almost NO ROLEPLAY whatsoever, but it happened, people made money, but still people HAD to sit there and wait and check on the tables if they didnt want them to explode or whatever. Tedious task. What I spurted out is whole different story, I am talking about not removing things, but making them unimaginably stupid to consider if you are in the money making game. SO buying one table, would cost too much and the ROI would be astronomically low. If the point is to get RP then my suggestions are always to get that and more of that, not less of it. Washing machines should be able to be purchased, they money I make from cleaning the money is often times nothing that I would go and lose additional weapons for. BUT if I intend to PvP which of course is no problem for me, then yeah I would bring a gun and lets go pew pew, but seeing that multiple people get banned for having more damage logs than '/me`s" with the explanation "NRP | PvP Mentality" "Ban Duration: Permanent" That gets me confused, because PvP is fun but shouldnt be all the server has to offer.. but the public laundromat is a PvP zone.. Not so much different RP would be going down there than getting robbed.. anyways... For example I go rob a house - RP possibilities are huge (getting robbed and all), I transfer the goods and then sell the packed money to a guy (still can get robbed) then I need to go to wash the money(AGAIN can get robbed) - additional RP possibilites. But those all are PvP RP posibilities not so much ''Hey man, i see you make a lot of money and youre good at it, wanna work for me'' RP. But yeah, hopefully the Devs and Staff hear me and the upvoters out.

Hah here you scored a bullseye for me Squirtle - You just made a business idea and making business is the most fun interactions I have had in this server. Make the Washing machine... 50k, 100k!!! So it only repays after a time, If i tell a CI or a CI overhears that I have a washing machine at home, that is heaven for LEOs to raid then Public laundromats will be still useful for new guys or those who dont want to spend absurd money on something at home if it only will repay itself idk after 50 uses, 100.... 200 uses??? at that time many ways i can be caught especially if i do business and help out others who dont want to invest that much but could give something in return. Which again are interactions which you and the community support and I do too, there are multitude ways of roleplay opportunities if we can have just one washing machine at home. Better yet, make it only that gangs can order it... maybe even only tier 6 and up? Make it 50 volume If I wash money at one of my appartments in appartment buildings, what if someone hops on to my floor by accident or not and hears a washing machine noise in the corridor? (meaning dont even need to enter) Cops could then have raiding opportunities, maybe a civilian calls the cops, maybe a CI. If you would reintroduce private labs but every piece of equipment would cost 1 million $, not everyone would buy it, maybe even when you set a limit on how many can be placed. My whole idea is dont get rid of opportunities, just make them cost too much for anyone to even consider. If I would have to pay a million to a gang of tier 7 or tier 8 just get a washing machine at home, I would pay it because comfort is just as valuable as time.

With all due respect, it would be 5 minutes at home, not 8 hours per day every day private cooking or private chopping. Sometimes I sit at home just managing and sorting things in my safes and so on. It takes more than an hour if i decide to suddenly refurniture my place. 0 interactions doing those things, so i dont get why 5 minutes at home washing money would suddenly change the activity in the server.

the risk is high for low reward, that is not criminal business, that is Non-RP. the rewards for having to risk ourselves getting robbed for that is not good enough. but you are looking to the wrong way in this discussion, its not about how much, its about the point of it, and there is no point because it is a circle, a washing machine, going round and round. there is a different approach. I believe mixing the Risk vs Rewards system in every crim suggesstion will not get us to any conclusion. We need to find our way to understand each other and therefore finding out that there is a lot to agree on, especially this. 1 washing machine per interior will win this year's Update of the Year Award

So like washing marked money is cool and all and I rarely get any interactions at public laundromats(dont know if server intended that) but why cant we just buy washing machines and place them at home and just do the washing at home? We already went through the risk of getting the packed money, traveling with it, not getting spotted selling to the dealers and we still need to go and wash it to get the extra bit on top of it. Of course nothing is forced, nobody forces me to wash the marked money but at the same time nobody forces me to be a crim but i still do it and so yeah - public laundromats dont make sense to me. I think it is nowhere near the private lab type of money printing, and i dont think there is any difference of washing money at home or at a public laundromat. So why dont we just implement it? We clearly still need to go rob a bank, a store or a house to get the packed money first, then we need to safely sell everything to the respective dealers and then afterwards we still need to go to a public place and wash it. Im thinking about the cost of the washing machine would be like 20k at the furniture store. Only 1 available to be placed in 1 interior, maybe longer time(or the same, doesnt really matter) and yeah lets get it done. I dont even know how to add any negatives to it, to balance it out, because to be fair, it is not money printing like cooking drugs, so i dont think there should be any explosions or sounds or whatever. And if the community still thinks that it would be a private money factory, then in that case why private chops exist? Yeah they got the sound and all, but washing the extra bit of money is nothing compared to what you can make while private chopping all day without getting noticed. Thoughts? P.S. I have never been robbed at Public laundromats so this is not made out of frustration
