Show Impound Details (Reason/Cost/Vehicles)

Recommended Posts

Posted

As of right now when a cop releases an impound you have no idea how much it is going to cost the person until you /release it. It would be nice as an officer to see whether or not the car was securely impounded or not when you do /viewimpund and how much its going to cost them. It would be more realistic than just doing /release and it taking the money without them having a say.

+1. I've seen people getting annoyed OOCly just because it doesn't say the release price at all and not everyone has millions laying around to just pay for the release all the time.

It doesn't matter about this, The price isnt gonna change, Does it really matter how much the impound price is, Just don't illegally park or get arrested to get the car towed and impounded.

For some people it matters and it would definitely improve the overall rp experience

+1 Personally I've never been towed for illegal parking but I do believe that people should be informed of price before proceeding with getting their vehicle released. It's more about transparency of cost and then on the person to decide if they want to retrieve said vehicle. This would also be beneficial for people who may have multiple impounded vehicles and can easily decide which is worth the cost. This would also increase communication between the officer and citizen where the officer will inform the person of the associated cost. Even though that is very minor communication, I think it would be a nice little plus.

Just released a neon for 11000 today. Released a drag for 5200 I believe. It would just be nice to see how much it cost along with whether or not it was secure impounded before hand just to help with RP, the way it stands now its borderline power gaming

Hmm, I need a few more numbers from different types of vehicles. So far it seems to be 5% compared to the cost to scrap the vehicle? With an absolute minimum cost of $2500 and a max of 15,000? You can also ask the officer to 'check impound history' and they may be able to find a number for you.

I still agree with the original suggestion though. Should show your cars and the cost to retrieve them when you /impound at impound (make it so it shows every time you /impound and either add a /buzzer or set it to buzz law enforcement only after so much time).
