Perhaps a command to check the windows of the nearest car too.

Thought that Logan Stone on the server was familiar haha.

I think you at least have to give it a couple weeks to see how it goes first before deciding whether to stick or twist with it. I joined the server a week ago and don't have as much money as a lot of you. So, not having immediate access to my pay as a member of the LSPD is a slight inconvenience but then considering that I'll be spending nearly all my time online, on-duty as a cop and that my weapons, health and vehicle are all covered by the department, the need for instant payout isn't that bad. Plus, from my understanding this is rewarding people for being active which is good both for the faction and the server population. I'd suggest just wait patiently and see how it goes, i'm sure if it turns out to be shit and everyone hates it, they will find another way.

You want these kinds of features to add to the role-play and immersion, but not take away from it. I think this is a good idea, but with certain conditions. You could satisfy the requirement by either eating or drinking. I'm not completely sure how time is worked out in the server, but I think expecting to eat something every 24 IC hours is reasonable and realistic. You can go a little crazy and start setting different values for different foods and stuff but ultimately, I just think this breaks down as one of those things that you just need to "tick that box" every day and you are good.

Think maybe for a lot of them, they just outgrew role-play. Plus, it's another game and the mod still seems in it's infancy so maybe it's just not captured their interest much. Plus, vG killed any hope of a GTA V server with their stalled plans as well.

Doesn't even need to be a button, can just include a random value in the message you are in danger of being kicked for AFK. If they don't enter it in time, they get kicked. If they enter it incorrectly three times, they get kicked. Doesn't have to be Pythagora's theorem either. Could just be a random number between 10 and 99 for example.

Hello everyone, I'm Dizzy Bala, formerly of Valhalla Gaming (the $A:MP Roleplay Community) and since i've been in Eclipse for a week as of writing this and haven't hated it, I decided it was probably best to introduce myself. I know that some ex-vG guys are playing here such as Darnell Stacks, Miky Reefer and Jason Reed but I look forward to meeting all of you and seeing what this community has to offer. I'm Dezzy Bala in-game if anyone wants to hurl some abuse at me and hurt my feelings.

Hello, you'll have to be gentle with me as I'm new to the community so I apologise if this has been suggested before but.. My suggestion in a nutshell is to have some way of test driving a vehicle before purchasing it. Why? Ultimately, I feel that the look of a vehicle will important is only superficial. The most important parts about buying a vehicle is knowing how it handles, what the top speed is, what the acceleration is like etc.. because ultimately, you are usually buying a vehicle to use it and especially early on, every $ you make is very precious. You can list these things in a spreadsheet or on the forum, but they really have to be experienced so you know how the vehicle will suit your driving capabilities and needs. How? I'm not familiar with the scripting on Rage MP so I don't know exactly what is possible and what is not but the way I see it, there are two main ways you could achieve this. You could implement an option at the dealerships to test drive that vehicle and the vehicle (or it's equivilent) would be spawned inside the testing area and you'd have say 180 seconds (3 minutes) with the vehicle to drive around and try it out. You'd be able to cancel it at any time and it would respawn you back at the dealership. At the end of the three minutes it teleports you back to the dealership. You could simply just go to the testing area and it would give you a list of vehicles that you could try out for yourself. Possibly you could spawn a vehicle to test by providing its name as an alternative. But the same thing applies as #1. Hell if you wanted to make it in-character, you could even make the test driving a business and put an additional cost there if you wanted to. Try before you buy is pretty critical when you are spending $$$ on a vehicle. I'll be honest, it's been that long since I played GTA V normally, that I don't know hardly anything about any of these vehicles and I imagine there are quite a number of people like me that want to buy a vehicle but simply don't know enough about them to bite the bullet.

Looks like a beacon of high roleplay
