Give medics the ability to delete bodies when there is no coroner around

[Linden_Thuynsma]

There have been multiple times where they had to /report to get a admin to take away a body after a scene when there is not coroner.This suggestion give Medics the ability to use CTRL+X and be able to delete the body after RP has been concluded only if NO CORONER is around if there is one around the menu will not work leading to them having to call the coroner!, 80% of the time there has not been a coroner leading to them having to report, this could be very useful and give better role play for medics such as the new knock-out system

I think this is a very good suggestion. +1

100 percent, also for PD and SD, there have been so many times I've just had to leave bodies or be stuck on scene for ages waiting for an admin.

The problem with this suggestion is It's a Band-Aid  fix that doesn't address the core issue. The core of the issue is that the corner job is just not worth doing. Currently you only get paid $500 for a body pickup with no passive income to justify staying on duty hoping you get a call. The complete randomness of income of this job with only a meager payout of $500 for picking up a body means no one does this job ever and they all realize once they try the job that it's never worth doing. The job should be adjusted and the payout for picking up body should be drastically increased so that it's a right place right time to make quick money, which would make it a unique freelance job where all the other ones are balanced and based on hourly income. A worthwhile value of a body could probably start at $3,000 as that's how much it cost to heal yourself at a hospital these days, $3,000 per body is six times the current income of the job, that might be enough to justify people actually working the job, Rather than law enforcement and medics having to rely on admins to delete bodies or adding new script support for government factions to be able to delete bodies like an admin. The system of corners is already in place and functional in game. The payout just needs to make it worth the effort for people to actually do the job.

I both agree and disagree with this. Agree that the core of the issue is the coroner job needs some rework. Disagree with just boosting the price per body. I agree that a small increase would help, but I believe a full overhaul with leveling system similar to trucking and bus jobs would be better. They should make it so you can either accept player input requests when one comes in or during downtime when players are not submitting requests, they should generate pre-scripted jobs that can be accepted with a spawned in dead body for them to go pick up for a reduced price. Maybe even better, tie it into the road worker job so that dead bodies show up at the incident sites that road worker crews are cleaning up for the coroners to come and claim to create more RP opportunities between free lance jobs and start tying them together.

Came for me putting in a report to get rid of a body on EMS duty, stayed for this little bit right here.

Plenty of the incidents have bodies that are spawned and are cleaned up by the Road Workers. It has created some awkward moments where I will show up to put out fires, and as I'm packing up to leave they'll ask about a body or two and I'll say while I can do the RP, they are the ones picking it up.

Implementing a system exactly like the fire one for incidents would be perfect, where a Coroner could be automatically alerted to bodies on scene and go pick them up and make some cash that way between play body calls. Those bodies are on a 5 minute timer, just like the fire script, so that if no coroner gets to them, the Road Workers will be able to pick them up.
