Truck Robberies

[JackAlis0n]

I believe it would be good if you were able to rob the trucks that deliver cargo to certain places. Players can approach these trucks and ask the driver to step out of the vehicle and open the back to the container, here there will be goods which you can steal. These goods can then be sold to certain people around the map, people that fit the same description and same shady locations as the gun smugglers and drug dealers, etc. This may seem unfair, this is when the truck drivers panic button in his cab comes into play, this panic button will send a signal straight to the police letting them know the truck is being robbed and it's precise location, just as the alarm would go off in a bank or a store when being robbed. Another factor which can be brought into play here is that the cargo would be in crates, so the player/players robbing the truck cant just pick up some goods then escape in their fast car, they physically have to carry the crates to the trunk of their vehicle (this would make it a lot more realistic and better the roleplay in my opinion). This would only work if scripts were made where the back of the truck actually opens up and you can go inside it to where crates will be stored.

+1 if you think this is a good idea, all feedback is welcome!

+1 Only if it was not every single truck. And made so it cant be expolited!

To prevent exploitation, unless anyone can think of a way to work around it with real players. NPCs could be driving these trucks and there could be 2 or 3 around at a time and its an automatic panic button when you point a gun at the driver. The NPCs will do normal routes just as player truck drivers would.

Or, these trucks just randomly spawn at any time, always having the starting point of paleto depot or at the docks in LS.

I dont think RAGE supports NPC's with AI behaviour.
