That's stupid, if I am wearing a mask and I am driving a stolen car, the script is STILL going to give me a ticket, how does THAT make sense?
Anyway, I am fully supporting the removal of these things, they've caused many players to be unable to retrieve their cars and they have simply quit, many friends of mine included.
They're in NCZ which are OOC. You break server rules, you get punished.

Yes to this. There needs to be notifications for the police for many activities too. People will try to rob you while you're in a store changing clothes, one would expect a store clerk and camera to be able to alert police.
Notifications for excessive speeding and shooting within some parts of the city too.

But it is covered in the rules
"A no crime zone is an area where players may not commit any actions considered crimes."
A scam is a crime and thus by the rules it shouldn't be happening
they've already stated that you can scam in NCZ now.

I had heard you can name change and role play that as a CK. Then I heard that changing your name will get you out of tickets and warrants.
Seperate the two systems and make a CK delete the character. People shouldn’t take them lightly or use them to get out of some obligation.

It is their decision to kill the character. The action should have consequences rather than benefits.
Were here to role play, not to win. If people can’t handle that they should leave, we can start getting people who prefer quality over quantity, which funnily enough would result in more people playing and staying.

State Troopers maybe, Military definitely not.

Allow us to unlock the driver side door only. I had somebody take shit from my car while I was getting in to drive off.
Make accessing the vehicle's inventory have a timer of ~1 second before it opens.

there are parking meters at the bank which automatically implies that the area around the bank is to be used
Yes, the PARKING SPACES at the bank. IRL do you just park wherever the fuck you want because there is a meter nearby? Parking on the same block as the bank should only be allowed in actual designated parking spaces.

You're not allowed to commit crime in NCZs which are OOC.
10 minutes ago, Kyle White Raven said:should be to increase enforcement of parking tickets IC'ly or make parking at the bank a server offense
This would require an officer to be sitting at bank permanently. Mechanics often can't tow the cars because the owner will get into it and make it magically untowable.
-
Just to clarify, when I say send it to Mors I don't mean having to pay to get it out. Just despawning it so it isn't messing up the bank.
Honestly what would be better is forcibly despawning vehicles ~1 hour after the player has logged out IF it is parked in a NCZ. Send it to a garage and require a fee to withdraw it rather than charging to store it.

-1 for beaming cars up to the mothership. It's an IC issue and should be dealt with IC.
It's a NCZ, which is OOC. People parking in the middle of the road is a crime. It is impossible for mechanics to tow the constant stream of fuckwits. I frequently see server staff reparking vehicles because it's such a mess. Not to mention people just stand around then get into their vehicle if a tow truck shows up and their vehicle magically can't be towed.
26 minutes ago, Hilbert said:So if car is parked more than 1 minute it would be sent to Mors? Okay, and what if it takes more than 1 minute to just get the salary from bank?
Park literally anywhere but in the middle of the road.
The front of the bank needs to be completely off-limits for loitering.

Yeah idk on what planet you go to jail for speeding tickets and it's the same length as shooting at cops and felony evasions but this definitely needs reworking. Mind you, all of you in debt for tickets remember a simple name change solves things
The problem here isn't that jail is too short for misdemeanours, but that the time you spend for shooting a cop is far too low. Also, name changing solving this stuff seems stupid and gamey.
The only issues with the system is that 70 is too slow for most parts of the city, cruise control only works half the time, and you can't easily change the cruise control speed. Changing L into to cycle through cruise settings rather than just an on-off toggle then fixing the issues with it disabling would be better. Cycle through cruise settings "Off, 70, 130".
Possibly change tickets to suspend your license after 3 days, add a warrant after a week.

The problem I have noticed is that gangs will just patrol various locations looking to rob, which just seems ridiculous. Surely gang members should be staying around certain areas or leaving the city to visit drughouses and chop shops.
Their numbers don't feel acceptable either, especially when they make alliances with each other. My friends and I have only had positive interactions with unofficial gangs (like Vagos and SeaWeed) and the Marcello Family. Limiting the people in a gang changes the mindset from inviting anybody in to actually picking and choosing who should represent you.
I don't know how the staff manages gangs but if they keep up the current meta then overall groups need to be punished in some way. I heard that previously the system allowed anybody to create a gang - that should be brought back to allow certain mechanics to people that have formed a group. Have official gangs get additional perks that allow them to do more to influence the server.
I definitely agree on a change for performing robberies as nobody should just be patrolling to find targets. Some etiquette on that shit would be good too. Taking somebodies phone battery is okay since they could call for the cops, maybe take the radio because you don't want them contacting friends. I don't see why they feel the need to take your fishing rod just to throw it away somewhere.
I also keep having my car stolen immediately after the server crashes because of player location data not being saved which is something that needs attention.

Prison breaks should be very rare and thus there is no benefit to scripting in a system that will be used very little. There are far more important things that will benefit the player base as a whole.

Extra parking spaces would be nice. +1

Rage.mp not supporting them
RAGE does support spawning in NPCs and I've seen client side scripts that do it, however server side scripts to sync them don't seem to exist.
14 hours ago, djnugget said:i dont know all the ins and outs but i believe NPCs mean you cant have as many actual players on a server? i know most servers with NPCs only have a small amount of player slots
NPCs won't take up player slots. The servers with NPCs are on FiveM which only supports 32 players (64 with the experimental OneSync).
Either way they won't provide much and definitely cause a lot of problems having around.

This is beyond ridiculous. There is a small area directly behind bank, parking across the road, a parking lot on the other side of the block, AND parking spaces along Vinewood Boulevard on BOTH sides of the road. There is so much parking, yet people resort to parking their cars on the road blocking traffic because they want to save a bit of time. There isn't enough mechanics or cops to deal with it and I often see admins trying to organise the vehicles so the area is actually accessible.
The parking meter is there but there isn't an incentive to use it because the odds of getting towed are so tiny, and they're not going to differentiate between a car that's been parked for hours and somebody who just stopped by to get their salary.
EDIT: Honestly what would be better is forcibly despawning vehicles ~1 hour after the player has logged out IF it is parked in a NCZ. Send it to a garage and require a fee to withdraw it rather than charging to store it.

They should just change NCZs to report to police when players commit crimes in them.

If someone is evading and they will just get an hour sentence for it, they will not shoot because they know they might get eight instead.
It will reduce people shooting, until they get to the much bigger cap of eight hours, and then they will start shooting again.
Unfortunately spent ~6 years roleplaying as a cop on SARP/NGRP which entailed getting shot because you wanted to pull somebody over for reckless driving. Generally people won't stop at evading because they don't want that hour in prison. If, as I said before, prison weren't OOC punishment that requires you to sit there doing nothing then people wouldn't be so opposed to it.
People generally don't roleplay fear of the consequences of breaking the law and instead cry that police are overpowered. Feel free to read all my posts on LSPD related threads thus far, I am biased towards supporting the lawful side of roleplay; I just don't believe that spending a full work day standing in prison watching Netflix is a good suggestion.

Everyone is complaining about the jobs getting repetitive... the point of this is to make people not go to prison as often. If there is a prison update with stuff to do then I'd support the change.
Increasing the times won't make people not commit crime, they will just work harder to get away. Results in more people shooting you.
Then maybe quitting because they have to actively sit in prison for 8 hours, unable to even AFK.

I believe increasing gang v gang interactions and reducing the size of gangs would be beneficial to the server health. Would be good to give drugs a value other than selling at a checkpoint as well.
Adding several types of control points (or modifying some existing locations) which provide useful goods to the holder such as
- Ammo (control point at docks)
- Nitro (if possible. have to control a chop shop and get the ability to add a one-time boost to your vehicle for a fee)
- Increased drug production (control a drug lab)
- Maybe some other special temporary or one-use items?
I don't know how the gun system works for gangs, but making heavy weapons very limited and the ammo difficult to come by while ensuring smaller firearms and their ammo are a little more accessible would be better. Reduction of powerful weapons for criminals should also equal reduction of powerful weapons for LSPD - handgun v handgun would be preferable and a little more realistic in most situations.

Personally I only support the increase of prison times in the event that prison itself goes through some changes. Allow for tasks to reduce the time you need to serve, as others have suggested. Furthermore change the system from requiring you to be online and active - prison is not supposed to be OOC punishment.
Assuming the above ideas were implemented, have different maximum sentences based on the classification of the most severe crime committed. For misdemeanours you should have a maximum time of 90 minutes. If you have committed any felonies then your maximum sentence goes up to 180 minutes, then for serious felonies 300 minutes.
Ensure the Penal Codes contain all necessary information. Add in some crimes such as littering, public intoxication, and assault with bodily fluids. Maybe separate murder into 1st and 2nd degree murder. Have the Penal Codes scripted in and allow modification from the panel. Allow charges to be selected in-game and for the total fine and punishment to be added up automatically.
Lastly, if a judicial system does end up being implemented then they should be able to sentence criminals for much longer than what the police are able to do. If criminals were to request bail and a trial rather than going to prison immediately then they run the risk of spending more time in prison if they lose. Additionally, police detectives would be able to open court cases to try and have suspects put away for longer.

Separating general questions from actual reports could be handy just to clean things up for for mods/admins.

Development of functions that improve player interactions and incentivize roleplaying with others would be far more beneficial than more systems where you interact with markers and commands.

Withdrawing firearms in a vehicle
in Archive
Posted
When on foot you are forced into an animation to put away and withdraw your guns, adding some delay. If people are aiming a gun at you and see you reach for your own gun they have the option of opening fire and putting several bullets into you before you can react.
If you are in a car and somebody aims a gun at you, you are able to swap to a weapon and shoot without any sort of delay or animation. There is no visual indication of them reaching when there realistically should be something. I had a friend aim a gun at some guys that rocked up; he ordered them to leave but they just pulled weapons and shot. He was within a metre of their vehicle and would have seen them bring up weapons and should have been able to shoot at least one of them down if not for the lack of animations when swapping to a weapon and also the fact that the animation going from seated to shooting is near instant.
