NEW FISHING SYSTEM(like the mining one)
Hi im Franci and its been only 1 week since i play here.. its amazing all jobs are great except fishing.. it is so white like no colors no fun nothing.. so i came up with an idea which on the future i hope become a reality: Detailed dynamic fishing system.
This is just an idea but a damn good one from the feedback that i saw once i asked others in game. (idk how possible it is or if im saying bs that cant be done because i have no knowledge about scripting)
What i will talk about here:
1.New fishing system (and probably make it a real job).
2.Fish types + 2 surprises.. read below to find out!!
3.Fish sizes
4.Fish prices(which i wont decide but moderators or whoever owns server+scripters)
5.How to fish (deep waters vs near the shore fishing)
1.Making it a real job: Instead of being always the same price 198$/1fish lets make it different like the miner job. about 8 types of fishes, the possibility to catch each one is random, so is the sizes.
2.Fish types: Eigh types of fishes. -> Cod / Mackerel / Sea bass / Swordfish / Turtle / Octopus / Dolphin / Shark...
AND the surprize... a sunken treasure which is like super rare to be caught....
oh ANDDD a whale.. which once you catch it, it will break your fishing rod.
3. Sizes: all random .. like rn 1 fish takes up 2inv space.. So we can make that some fish are small and take 1.. and others are large and take 2 or 3. some even take 4 if they are rare and huge. The surprise Whale which should be super super rare should take 10 inv slots.. if no slots are avaible than the player is forced to release the whale and also lose the rod.
4. Prices: rn 1fish=198$.. always the same price.. boring!! So now depending on the size of the fish and the type of it the prices vary, like the cheapest a turtle for e.g and the most expensive the dolphin. and the whale ofc should not be the most expensive but somewhat pricey because it take 10 slots. [ofc the prices will be so its equivalent to mining or somewhat more or less rewarding depending on your catches.]
5. How to fish: There should be 2 ways of fishing..
With a fishing Rod near the shore: which is like we are already fishing nowdays... and 2nd: with a BOAT.. Yes boat should be bought with money or ingame cash i dont really care. Just make it that when you fish far away from shore with a boat you get a 20percent chance that fishes that you catch are of a higher quality.. like you get a 20percent higher chance of catching a dolphin or a shark or idk... but not for whales and treasures they should stay the same. (or make it that those 2 can only be caught from boatfishing).
Thank you.
Edit: the Boat fishing idea can be like this :
You get a permit for fishing
You get a boat which is the slowest in game but you can find them unlocked like the farmer job maybe, and that boat will have only 50 inv space.
E.g. You get the boat, fish and your inv is full. Then you go and sell them at a dropoff Water location.. so you can sail your boat at dropoff not go sell fishes at the bank like it is..
Player can buy more expensive boats if they can afford..
Medium boats : 200 inv space
Big boats have 500 perhaps.. like it is at the mining job.
People can also fish randomly around map but when you fish near the shore the fishes should be kinda more average types , and never have the chance to catch whales, dolphins or sharks.
Edit #2: Payment.
It should be a salary and not a cash on hand type of payment when you sell your fishes. This to not create a chaos like the Nonrp bs that happens to the miners where they get robbed 100 times eveyr hour and there is NEVER an LSPD patrol at the factory or at the mine which should be logical if we r RPing it.
If people want to rob you then they better have a faster boat than the one you are driving .. Nowdays its super easy to rob people just wait them at the dropoff and thats about it.. nothing gonna happen no cops no nothing.. so to avoid this BS make it straight to salary system $, so the robbers feel motivated to buy faster jetskis or fast boats if they really wanna put time into robbing others and RPing it.
