  1. The government giving you $1,500 an hour for existing isnt realistic either. I think the fines are fine... get it. But I will give a +1 for having warning signs. Even though, once you know where they are, then you know where they are.
  2. So if there are no spots at high end, we can not legally sell a car? Is it actually illegal to sell a car without using high or low end?
  3. I am also a mechanic and so your experience must be much different than mine. Recently we haven’t had enough people to even answer the mechanic request that have been out. In the last 48 hours that has changed because we have hired 11 new people.
  4. The people that tow are mechanics that are roadside certified. Again, they do not have time.
  5. Mechanics also do not have the time to do this.
  6. I would be fine with having an automated system in addition to the current system. The hybrid system where you could pull it out if no one comes in a reasonable time. Maybe you could even increase the fine for the automated system to encourage people to wait for the PD.
  7. I tell people this all the time and they still don’t listen.
  8. You could also have the frequency saved to the radio so that when you steal the radio from PD, you could then talk to them over the radio giving demands etc. You wouldn’t know the frequency but you would still be able to talk over it.
  9. I own a couple of small businesses and have encountered a slight problem which I think could lead itself to a small change that could highly improve the quality of life for small business owners. I wanted to create a truck rental company. In order to officially register that type of business, the local government require that you own a property where you could house these types of vehicles, a warehouse. In RP, it makes complete sense. However, the current system only allows for storage of items. The problem that I have is that I had to spend every ounce of money that I have worked to acquire for two months to actually make my life harder. I now have to legally conduct business(RP) out of a location that is further away from where I can actually store my vehicles. I want to reiterate that RP wise, this makes perfect sense and I completely agree with it. However, as a player, it makes things more difficult and therefore makes it less appealing. If I could store my rental trucks at my warehouse, then ICly and OOCly my business would run better. Here is my suggestion: Implement a way in which vehicles can be stored at warehouses. I think it can be done in one of the following ways. Have a hybrid system where you can trade 1,000 inventory space for a vehicle slot. So with a warehouse, you could have up to 5 vehicle slots if you give up all of your inventory space. Have the option to choose if your warehouse will be a vehicle warehouse or an item warehouse. I believe that if we decide to implement vehicle storage, you could use the system that is already in place for houses with the addition that anyone can pull a vehicle out of storage when the warehouse is unlocked. I believe that this change would be beneficial to criminals and civilians alike. Both business men and gangsters(or people who are both) can greatly benefit from warehouses that have vehicle storage.
  10. Date and time (provide timezone): 4:20 PM EST Character name: Joe Millions Issue/bug you are reporting: On the new panel my vehicle(which is a phantom) is showing up as "Not Found" Expected behavior: It to say "Phantom" Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate: Vehicle license plate number*: MRVHADIA PS. New panel looks awesome!
  11. Date and time (provide timezone): 3:30 PM 6/21/19 | USA Eastern Standard Time Character name: Joe Millions Issue/bug you are reporting: When parking my vehicle, I was teleported to a residence in mirror park. This is my first time seeing this bug. Expected behavior: When parking, you normally get out of your vehicle and are not teleported else where. Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate: The man that was at the residence seemed to say something that would indicated that I appeared at the exact same time he pulled his car out of the garage. Maybe related, maybe not. Vehicle license plate number*: XHMBQMBB Seems to be related to this topic, however, I was fully loaded in. I had been logged in for about three minutes beforehand. Logged into my house, drove my sentinel down, pulled out my dominator GTX, then parked my sentinel and this is when the bug happened.
  12. There have been multiple threads on adding more spaces to high end many good comments within those threads. Based on what I have read, I would like to make a suggestion for a car market rework. I try to flip cars but it take so long with the limited space at high end. Sadly, not very many people look to the IC market places and therefore, it is challenging to sell cars if there are never any spaces at high end. It is also really awkward when you have a car that you want to sell for $40.000. With low end topping out at $30,000 and high end bottoming out at $50,000 there is that weird grey area. Benefits to the rework: 1) More economy sinks to help with inflation. 2) More opportunity for people to sell their vehicles. 3) No gap in coverage Proposed changes: Three different tiers of car market places that do not have gaps in sale coverage. 1) Low end - $500 listing(5% tax). $1-$50,000 price range. 2) Mid tier - $1500 listing(5% tax). $50,000-$200,000 price range. 3) High End - $3000 listing(5% tax). $200,000+ price range.
  13. +1 on the light -1 on the mining time change There needs to be some amount of risk in the job that pays the best on the server.
  14. Date and time (provide timezone): 6/8/19 5:24PM EST (This is not an isolated incident. It has happened to me multiple times and I have seen it happen to others). Character name: Joe Millions Issue/bug you are reporting: When at the ore drop off in the foundry, occasionally people will drop their ore just outside of the boundary and are no longer able to pick it up. Once this occurs if your character model steps onto an ore model, you become bugged into the “world” I assume that is set up to accept the ore drop offs. The problem is corrected by navigating your way out of the building. Expected behavior: Not getting put into the ore drop off “world”. Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate: Vehicle license plate number*: N/A
  15. People all ready non RP by running there and parking their cars in the middle of a chase. I am am fine with it not becoming a NCZ but I think we definitely need more parking and that the radius should be increased.
  16. +1 helps to add more jobs for truckers too if they were to implement this correcty
  17. I believe that we should make the public parking a NCZ. In addition, I think increasing the radius of the area that you can /park would be beneficial. You have to be literally ontop if the Red Blip which is quite challenging with the number of players using parking and with some of the larger vehicles. Have you ever tried to put a pounder in parking? Large vehicles(Phantom, pounder, and mule) can also only go in the exit where the gate does not open from the outside. Here are some reasons why I believe that parking should be an NCZ: 1) People who do not own property yet, log on and off there. - If you are on a time crunch and have to log off and someone is attempting to put you in a situation where the other party demands roll play, if can lead to negative interactions(both IC and OOC). Same goes for when you log on. 2) NonRP happens there on the regular. - The spawning of vehicles is fairly nonrp and sometimes they are unlocked when they first load in. Having someone hold you up as your spawn your vehicle seems pretty nonrp to me. 3) This builds off of 1 and 2. People come speeding through and often run people over in an attempt to “Park” their car. Which leads to bad RP. This could be because they are logging off and don’t care or because in that moment of changing vehicles, they are trying to rush from this moment of nonrp and get back to “their RP”.
  18. Edited with changes that have happened therefore, some topics are no longer valid.
  19. I asked a shop owner and he told me they are not able to order them any more.
  20. I just wanted to give my opinions about a statement from the recent announcement on the discord. We have listened to ideas presented in the past and implemented more things to encourage civilian roleplay and offer an alternative to simply going around and chain-robbing, which include recent updates such as, mining, trucker job enhancements, hunting and player-owned general stores. I do not believe the recent changes have been successful in discouraging chain robbing because the reality is they have taken away from existing jobs(trucker is worse), created more opportunities for robbery(mining), or are not even accessible(hunting). 1) Mining - Encourages chain robbing because you are able to sit at the foundry and get 15-20k off of civilians with little effort. If you are robbing, you don't need the truck with 500 inventory space or to have taken the 30 minutes to mine it. - Suggestion: Make mining money go to salary. Mining should also be decreased by 30-40% so that it is not blatantly overpowered. I would also like to hear an official post about whether holding the crate, even if you have RPed placing it in the seat as you drive, is power gaming. I have read reports on people getting hit with power gaming but most people in the server think it is okay if you RP it. As new people come into the server, vets are informing them that it is okay to do this. Seems as if the mining numbers have been coming down. I am not sure if this is because of the automated price adjustments or developer intervention so I retract my price reduction suggestions. 2) Trucker Job - There is not enough work for more than 1 trucker to have work for any substantial amount of time. Work only comes when store owners place orders and that doesn't happen very often. I have spent many hours waiting on orders to be available and they never come. - Suggestion: Can we make those orders only available for people who own trucks and find away to bring back some of the old system as an option for either truck renters or truck owners? 3) Hunting - I have been told that you need a knife to skin the animals, yet knives are not able to be ordered by store owners so how are we supposed to buy them? Maybe I am missing something IC but from what my character has learned in game, I am not even capable of hunting. - Suggestion: Let store owners be able to place orders for knives again. Seems as if knives are now able to be bought in stores again. I have no comments about owning a general store because as a player who has only been around for a few weeks, I don't have the liquidity to buy a place like that yet. Let me know what everyone else things about that. I am very open to the fact that I maybe completely ignorant about some things. These are the opinions of someone who is not a criminal and works at LSC.
