Imo it's fine how it is now. All owners make sure their station is filled.

Having 2 stations right next to eachother won't do good imo. Maybe a little weird too... The issue is, if the capacity would be lowered of the smaller station + a second station would come right next to it, the price of the smaller station would go down a lot. If not 3x lower. This would be a huge disadventage for the person who bought it (me in this case) and a little unfair if I say so myself. I can almost guarantee people would not go or even notice the smaller station at all, since that is pretty much the case already unless I use a blip to make it a little more clear, next to all the furniture and lights I placed to give it attention. I personally feel like having just the station moved would be great. There are already props placed to block the pumps from exploding, but they are not functioning. Maybe this was originally the plan to use those pumps, but somehow didn't happen. Having 2 stations on the exact same property, 5 meters away from eachother seems not needed, espcially since there are already 2 other stations quite close to it. Imo it wouldn't be too weird too to have those 2 rusty pumps not functioning anymore, as it looks like it technically belongs to the little grocery store thats infront of it +... they are rusty... As seen in this picture: It's not a request that would give me an adventage imo, it just makes more sense imo and would look a lot cleaner and better. This would help especially newer players as even if I stand there for around 5 minutes I keep seeing peopel stepping out at the modern bigger pumps, not even knowing how to get fuel as they sciptly can't get it there. PS: The problem is is that there is no fixed price that has been decided by the server + the reasons I mentioned above.

Hello! As some people might have noticed, the most north fuel station of paleto got 2 spots that have pumps. One small spot right infront of a tiny supermarket with 2 more older and rusty pumps and the other spot is an actual bigger more clean looking area that got the same advertisement on it as the sings alongside the road. The issue I am noticing is that many (new) players get confused, trying to get fuel at the actual station instead of those 2 tiny pumps. This means I almost need to place a blip, which I mostly do, but I have to make sure its VERY clear they need to drive towards the tiny supermarket for fuel. I already did my best with furniture to grab attention, but people still seem to think the other spot with more pumps is the actual station, which I can't blame them for for thinking that. Personally, in the past, I've stood at that station too, being kinda amazed that the big area with pumps is not used, but I had to go to those small pumps right next to it for fuel. ECRP also decided to protect the pumps with barriers and stuff, but it is actually not being used scriptly... Here a picture for people that don't know what I talk about: The orange drawing represents the current pump that is scriptly working at this station. The green part is the area that most (new) players would expect to get fuel. As you can see, all yellow marks represent the fuel station to be at the pumps in the green marked zone, also having fuel tanks next to it. My suggestion would be to move the functioning pumps from the orange zone to the green zone as it makes way more sense in my opinion.

Dear customers and/or citizens, I've noticed a small amount of people have shared their concern about the so called Coronavirus. Therefore, I have made sure there are more disposable gloves available at every pump. Please make sure to use these and throw them away in the bin when done refueling. Kind Regards, Audrey Sanchez

Very nice edits and music! Lovely!

I just leave this quote here. (( @Dewi Mcfestive ))

Dear MrDoodle, again, you can not tarnsport 64,400 liters. I mentioned the amount in the price I personally paid for, not in liters. The fact you still deny that you made false statements is strange, considering I quoted you mentioning a price of $1500, while I have proof it wasnt the case. This damaged my trust and I will think about what I will do as this does feel like purposely trying to get even more money otu of it, while being the only person makign these statements at this point. Again, I will think about some stuff, as I am not sure what to believe. For now I only ask to keep it at actual facts, as I do have all the facts myself noted in a sheet and all info about the prices I would have set according to you, including previously mentioned amounts of fuel being ordered are false. Kind regards, Audrey Sanchez.

Dear MrDoodle, You can't load up 64400 liters. The tank capacity of the whole station is 20,000. Its also a bit weird to calculate why I need to pay for truckers' time of returning. However, I am still not seeing anythign back from the false statements that were made, which does not feels right in my opinion. I am starting to doubt all statements that were made, losing trust. Especially after the last message, while all my deliveries got doen within 1 hour... I also didn't notice anything being said about what I told in my previosu message. If I am really honest, I start to feel like this group of 14 truckers you mentioned is non existing. But again, I would love to try and figure somethign out with you. PS. SOME appreciation for starting to raise prices would be cool too. Especially after those false statements. Kind regard, Audrey Sanchez.

Small update, both orders haven been delivered within 1 hour in total now (( @Dewi Mcfestive ))

Dear Mr. McDoodle. Thanks for your message. First of all, the Second you sent this message, believe it or not, 1 of my orders have been delivered. I would like to make some things clear. "trying to leach $1500 truck runs" you state 1500 truck runs, while I have done the following: I seperated my order in 2: 2 orders , costing $34455 + $34460 fuel total I've raised my pay for truckers to 2K per delivery (this comes together to an total of a 267% pay increase for the truckers now, as the order is twice as small compared to what I used to offer ) I would like to inform you that I was one of the first 2 station owners that raised their price to the agreed $10 minimum. This did cause me being the more expensive station for a small amount of time. Next to that, one of the stations in the city is basically losing money, setting their price below profit prices and also offering insane high delivery pay. I sadly can't do the same, but all this together did take away some business, considering this only started 2-3 days ago. Please make sure to be patient as this can't be done perfectly rightaway. This takes some time. Next to that, I expect you to kindly make sure the statements are correct, not giving people the impression my pay rate is 25% lower than mentioned and leaving away the fact my order is 2 times smaller now. I personally have a very detailed sheet where I keep track of almost everything and I am currently working on an automated system that calculates what money I can spend for the truckers based on the profits. I am willing to work with you, but again, it takes time. I understand you, but I would also appreciate some understand from your side if possible as I could just ignore this since my deliveries are still being done. Kind regards, Audrey Sanchez.

Not sure tbh. /CPR imo should become /BLS, as its not just CPR that you can provide. Having the CPR animation bound to it will then only make it weirder if you just provide general basic life support. I rather just have my own /me's and do's describe it and not the animation too.

I agree with some previous statements. The money we get from the fuel isn't pure profit. Money goes to advertising, taxes and import costs too. of the $8 I have been asking, $3 was left per litter to spend on the things I mentioned. Depending on what station you have and how you advertise, you make more or less profit. For this reason, I am planning on raising my station price to $2 more. This shouldn't affect customers too much and offer the truckers a higher pay. It's hard to keep both customer and truckers satisfied. I personally believe this would be a good option. Maybe this price will be adjusted in the future though, depending on how this turns out. at the end, all stations compete against eachother. Raising teh price will maybe cause less customers, less sales, less profit, less money to spend. So workign together, setting a new base price for all stations could work.
-
This is correct though... In my opinion, having a meet would be nice. I personally would like to compare the pay with the one of the postal job and maybe start basing the price on that.
-
Hello! I have raised the pay for truckers since today. Next to that, I would be willing to meet with some of you guys to discuss stuff if you guys are down. I am still a little new to the fuel station business and will do my best to make you guys happy. You can also text me: #2289317 for questions. Ms. Sanchez

Added this to the post ^^

You ask IC money for something OOC, right? As this is posted in an OOC section + Discord is OOC.
-
Isn't this RWT/MG?
-
Maybe not just apply this idea on the drag. I personally would suggest to adjust fuel usage/capacity per vehicle (type) in general, not just the drag...
-
-1. All reasons are already mentioned imo.
-
Is there any profit insight?
-
I agree with this, but I see how people like to have this suggestion implemented. Personally, I suggested some changes in the house parkinglots in the past where the car would actually go somewhere instead of despawning when parking it up. That, for the same reason as mentioned above.

Thanks for the reply. I tested this using a floor, placing it right under the stairs. It indeed worked and made it more clear what is going on. I made a short video again where you can clearly see what happens. https://streamable.com/mbop9 As soon as my character walks above the part where there is a floor under the stairs, you see the legs goe through the stairs, walking on the floor part. As soon as the floor ends, the character walks on the stairs again.

Location is great! Hope many people come! I will do my best to be there! Pic from last meet there:

Hello! Is there any number I can contact for questions? Thanks.
