  1. I've made multiple millions from criminal RP and never once got my house/property raided or arrested (minus a reckless op or two) To be fair, I don't touch guns so I don't get seen with shotguns and aks while randomly driving around but that's just part of it I guess.
  2. Is there a way we can be told the exact car despawn timer for vehicles that are owned by players who logged out? I hear 2 hours, I hear 4 hours. I just want a concrete number or way the timer resets. Does getting in the vehicle and getting out right away reset the timer for the amount of time? Is there a reason this is still in the game now that chopping is more prevalent? Shouldn't it be up to the players to park the cars they own instead of leaving them out on the street, I doubt it has that much of a performance issue, im sure most people park.
  3. It would be nice if this was automatically done since we do turn off the fare for off-duty members as well, but this allows people to introduce each other while off duty if someone doesn't know someone.
  4. This, it is up to us the players to make sure nothing is clipping and nothing is messed up. same with the clothes that are bugged, just don't wear them.
  5. How it currently works: Everyone that isn't the driver pays a fare when they get out of the taxi How it SHOULD work: Everyone who isn't currently on duty should pay the fare, DCC members who are clocked in shouldn't ever pay a fare because they are working. Possible solution: Run a quick check on the people getting out of the car and if they are on duty for DCC, simple do not charge them, if they are not on duty for DCC, charge them Reason: We have Buddy Wednesdays and Buddy Sundays where people do ridealongs or even for training, and if you run up the fare and get out of the taxi before the driver because that cancels the fare, you end up paying a lot of money with zero way of getting it back (despite it going into the treasury?) really cool and neat feature!
  6. +1 also make a better UI for vending machines so we can buy multiples, honestly might as well add burger shot as well so people don't have to burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.burger.fries.soda for a large order from like DCC or Weazel whenever they come in
  7. Simply add a timer or something where you have to wait for a cart to be ready, realistically this should just be something used for RP and traveling and such and not a means to evade.
  8. Simply add a cool boat and balance it! More boats > +1
  9. This is still a bug. When people are in the taxi, the driver's current fare price [$0] is always at zero, the passengers get updated with the command /taxidrivers Scottie_Keeton was the driver and I was the passengers, so it should show a fare for Scottie but not myself, Elias.

    Question

  11. +1, but make a confirm menu and let them know otherwise people are going to pull salary thinking it is normal and there will just be a bunch of report glitches like "omg less money" because lets be real I would do the same thing without reading lol I think all banks should be 24/7, especially with people being able to play limited times
  12. Or even half way through once the security company gets back from their coffee break they look at see the man smacking it and then they alert the PD!
  13. +1 to the original suggestion another follow-up, do those ATMS still have the same limit as outside ones that aren't connected to a bank? (there are still ATMs in the banks right)
  14. NPC cars have the same exact speed, there is no different difficulty for those, that is the main point
  15. I can't lie, depending on who I am repairing the vehicle for and if they actually want to hold a conversation, I just type basic things and build LORE and RP with the characters rather than type an essay out. Other times if they have specific things they are like /do x would be broken with a scratched y, I would do more in-depth RP. Depends on the person for how I go about the RP Edit: I didn't read the rest of the replies before sending this, but when I was in MD I definitely used soundboards all of the time with little /me's and /do's whether it be bandage duct tape, or velcro etc. Soundboards done correctly >
  16. Weazel used to get bonuses for doing bulk ads which was available for everyone when it was in place. Fairly certain this was a manual payout nothing scripted MD gets $200(?) per body dropped off at the hospital. This one is scripted I am sure all the other companies could do commission if they really wanted to give extra incentives, have something they fill out or something to keep track of calls completed, fill out a form if you do a mechanic request, and get a little bonus for taking them. I feel like a lot of this could be done IC, though I guess it's all up to the head admins to allow it, however, that should also be handled IC if there are budget checks and such.
  17. I just want to say this sounds like a full and proper drug addict mentality.
  18. For the past 6 months, I have been trying to get MPT back up with a contract to allow scripted repairs, at first I tried to get a contract with Bayview, but the governors said I had to go to LSC to get a contract, then was told that I had to wait for LSC to get its employment up, now i have to wait for the new LSC owner to get announced which will probably be another few months. We still do RP repairs and such with tuning special cars and time trails with upgraded cars and have been working on a class system for a racing app again. To give a little insight into how Liam and I set up the contract this time around; MPT would pay a monthly fee for the tool rentals, and then if we have a really good month, give a few % of our profit to LSC. I have always been a fan of this +1
  19. I mean I've done weazel ads with cyphers in them that people knew how to decode, just make a business page and act like you are opening up and have some sort of cypher and its an easy thing to do
  20. We can RP blindfolds! ( would be neat but other dev things should be on the list before this )
  21. Without any dev work or radical changes, one of the other big issues that I see a lot with the two mechanic shops is the treatment of employees by the ECRP community. All anyone ever does is shit-talk them to tell them to work fast. Those kinds of people ruin the RP for everyone "Oh im just frustrated IC". No, you aren't, relax it's a game and people have lives. If you have so much time to play the game and wait 4 hours for a mechanic to accept your MR, go work at a shop and get free repairs for your car any time you want and help out everyone else while making a lot of money, I am sure it is super easy and fun! End of the day, mechanics have lives, they would rather go outside or play on another character when all that happens is you get shit talked to and shot at because "no one is around". Unfortunately, all these kinds of jobs are being paid by the government instead of all the money being handled internally with labor costs and paying out that way, so there is a limit on how much of a criminal you can be to still be employed at these places. I know a bunch of servers allow you to work at these jobs while being a criminal so long as they aren't murderers, but evading and less brutal crimes are allowed to continue employment. Might be something to look into in the future. For example, mechanics in the past have had race crews stem from the shop, LS Underground, for example, was a bunch of managers and mechanics who liked to street race, but if they got caught they were fired and had to turn illegal or go do nothing for 3 months until they can get hired again maybe. I feel like an owner of a garage might turn a blind eye to that so rt of thing, but again these factions are government-funded so the government can't be "funding criminals". If we allowed other kinds of criminal RP to take place with you to keep the job without the CEO of these companies getting fired or forced to fire you, it would also promote different sorts of criminal factions to become more of a thing without having to rely on shootouts to make money once you get fired from your job. Obviously, if people go and start murdering a bunch of people yea, you can not really turn a blind eye to that one. Also just quoting this so it doesn't get lost for all the people reading this 15 messages down. Currently, use the staff if there are no members online! (Please remember this still requires a Mod+ to do this which may also not be available at certain times of the day)
