While an argument or debate is not the intention of these forums, it does allow others to pitch in and really help discover what the issue is and create an idea or suggestion to solve it. Your original argument was that PD were taking items they shouldn't be taking, leading to the suggestion that there should be a scripted 'box' you can store your items in when you're detained. You revealed the concerns that there are inconsistencies in the staff procedures at the justice department levels which lead to the recommendation of filing a report or talking to a higher rank. There is a procedure to everything, we all just have to take the right steps, the department doesn't just push them aside, they either send out a notice about it or they'll add it to training. If anything, at least try to talk to the police officer ICly first, then OOCly.

Personal Business Options are severely lacking in this town. Either you're a criminal with someone's house or open interior as a 'base of operations', or you're a government employee with a designated area. Besides the forums, small business owners need love and an office too. From designers, to pawn, to trade, to private security, personal transportation and other services. I'd like to see a ton of shops or businesses marked and purchasable with an entry where one can do business and indicators if the business owner is available or not with a sign. Specific businesses can be assigned to different doors or stores based on their business. The interiors could vary to use already available assets. Factions should also be able to purchase these places as fronts, business locations or meeting places. These places could also have a scripted store system where players can enter and purchase items or services directly from the owner (with limitations, tax and raid-ability.) Thanks.

If the intent is to keep them rare, but available, I like the idea of an auction or just make the import price high enough to keep them naturally rare. Individuals like myself would still aim to earn the money for one as a collector, even if the performance is equal to a cheaper vehicle.

+1 Breaking out could be similar to a stalled engine. Time + Random Chance.

This could also remove all past and current charges completely from the character.

+1 Would actually like it always on, but be able to shrink it to half its size and decrease the font size. It's too big IMO and covers up some screen space.

+1 to an implementation of some kind. Have to keep in mind people change their names if they're married also. MD should have a 'permanent NLR' option that costs some money and let's you recreate and rename your character all in one go, then offer you a teleport. This would also change your stranger tag, thus unaliasing your character.

Please +1 Star Wars Galaxies even charged a 10% transfer fee, could at least do that or something like that.

+1 Please link previous similar suggestions, (don't have the time to search for them right this second, but if I do, before someone else does I'll link them in this thread.)

Please add the ability to text government numbers like taxi, police and medical. Additionally future implementations like mechanics. Maybe this could also permit leaving messages for businesses if they get their own numbers like loan and car companies.

Never said that I support officers taking things like sandwiches. I would take things that you would not get back IRL.

1. Besides it being a heavily guarded area, it does provide a safe place for both sides, criminal and government alike. Go after them after they've left the NCZ. 2. Police are obligated to take any 'evidence' that may relate to the crime or cause further incidents or criminal intent. I did hear a cop today handing out food after searching someone, which is wrong on various levels. Didn't find out who that was, but will pursue next time. As long as we don't have criminals roleplaying next time that they hide things in food or clothing I'll gladly let you keep that burger, maybe that cool looking jacket. After you're out of my hands though DOC could just as easily confiscate it. Maybe the suggestion here should be some kind of locker to store criminals items while they serve their time.

Maybe give them an option after the 'max required'? Maybe have a time / fine ratio. Serve full sentence. Released pay additional fines depending on time left. Serve full sentence and extra to auto pay current fines (based on government salary?)

Would like to see the time increased as well or extra 'unserved time' be turned into fines. If I was doing crim stuff all the time, once I figured I had 2 hours of time, I'd try to get more charges just to see how high I could get it.

Will document command modifications and suggestions here. Will mark if implemented. Character Toggling - Toggle character accessories, outfits and hats. Crime Grabcash modification - change /me to /ame or similar. Residency More house commands - Add rental and send invitations. Roleplay Attempt - add difficulty to tasks? Dice/Roll Expansion - Add more dice commands. Systems Aliasing Restrictions - Disallow aliasing masks, alias approval. Implemented Change Character Command - change character or logout to login menu. Dimension Command - Dimension Reset. Denied Restart Rage Integrations - restart elements of rage. Vehicles Car key - Adding /key ## <plate> so you can give a key remotely. Inspect Vehicle - Inspect vehicle status, pinning and possibly more. Feel free to post links or suggestions and I'll keep this updated best I can adding them to the list. I plan to build a sheet of current commands as well that show what they do unless one already exist somewhere.

Please add commands that allow the restarting of certain Rage integrations without having to completely reload/restart the game. All commands could have a cooldown or require quick admin approval. /restartphone - Reboots your phone to fix any rendering issues. /restartvoip - Reboots voice systems and reconnects. /restarthud - Reboots the entire HUD including phone, chat, alias's, maps and indicators. /restartanim - (not sure how the animation handler works) Triggers then halts all available animations, restarts the handler, refreshes a T-pose. /stuck <description> - Checks phase and location, if not in prison and if indoors, move to the nearest outdoor location. Check phase, if phase is not 0?, move to 0. Any other suggestions? Should make a thread for all command suggestions.

It all comes down to gathering and analyzing information and would need quite a few helping out. I've linked below some work I've done already and some ideas. Vehicle Rating Form - If not integrated into the forums or wiki in some form, this could be used to rate vehicles and add notes. Can be added to the database spreadsheet or its own. Vehicle Database - A database I started working on because I wanted to know more about a vehicle and its modification and design options before I purchased. It also has a calculator that would allow you to check the approximate value of an already modded vehicle.

+1 GTA is largely about cars, everyone has a primary goal and most have one of those goals to own at least one super, even if they're not all that super. Having a car you can really love and take care of is something that can be immersive in itself.

-1 Again, try your best to play the character IC in VOIP. If people make any comment ICly about you sounding like something your character doesn't look like, they are Metagaming. You can even toss in the occasional /me would sound like a tough Irish gangster or /me would be female just to reinforce it and if they continue commenting or discriminating you and your character because your voice doesn't sound like what your character should be /report them.

We defensively need this, roads and named areas. You don't open any mapping software on your mobile device and not get them. Maybe not postal codes, but named areas and roads are very much needed.

+1 Love the idea of aircraft, -1 on the faction idea due to already limited players and limited factions you can join at one time. Discussed quite a bit already here. A lot of this can be automated or managed by staff or overseen by police due to what should be a very small limit of aircraft at one time.

Please expand the /dice system. Add or change command to something like below. 1d4 = 25% - use /dice 4, /dice d4, /roll d4 or /d4 1d6 = 16.7% - use /dice 6, /dice d6, /roll d6 or /d6 1d8 = 12.5% - use /dice 8, /dice d8, /roll d8 or /d8 1d10 = 10% - use /dice 10, /dice d10, /roll d10 or /d10 1d20 = 5% - use /dice 20, /dice d20, /roll d20 or /d20 1d100 = 1% - use /dice 100, /dice d100, /roll d100 or /d100 /d20 recommended as it would be less to type and would be easy to autocomplete. It may even be possible to script it in a way that /roll 1d20 would be able to respond to a /roll ##d## command.

In an RP situation or scenario where you'd like to mix it up a bit or unsure of what choice to make as the character, use /dice. Dice can be used to help make these choices easier and add an RP element. If your in equal competition with another, /dice helps decide who could win the encounter or be successful over the other. If you or they have an advantage in some form, /dice twice to compete with the one. If multiple people are involved, 1-2 vs 3-4, they can all roll to see what the outcome could be added. If it's 1 vs 2, they would all roll only to beat the one naturally giving an advantage. If you approach or do something that could be difficult or have a challenge associated with it. /dice to either see if successful 4-6 or failed 1-3. You can also base the challenge on that number especially if you expect to succeed despite a fail. You can also adjust the success/fail based on difficulty. If it's easy, you could fail at 1-2 instead, if it's hard you could fail at 1-4. I love seeing people using /dice. During an attempted escape of a criminal I was transporting unlike most lately, they didn't go into /ooc right away, so I enjoyed RPing with them and was open to options and expanding the RP. they /me'd an attack and attempt to get away, I was distracted, I rolled a dice, they rolled higher and I let them go and they got away. Later that night they turned themselves in. I would actually like to see dice expanded. /roll d## command. /roll d4, /roll d6, /roll d10, /roll d20, /roll d100.

Discovery, National Geographic and Google exists for a reason. We don't have bears in Los Santos... unfortunately all animals have been exported and banned from the island.

Scrapyard car idea Scrapyard cars can just be vehicles you can't register due to being unsafe. Maybe after bringing it to a mechanic a few times and eventually paying value price, it becomes registerable. Essentially it would be a vehicle that's ongoing maintenance and it's own self empowered loan you can earn up to owning. If your scrap gets impounded, you'd have to pay only a maintenance fee to release it instead of having paid for registration already.
