Look at how many people have benefactor roles on Discord and then ask yourself if anyone wants this to happen. The idea is good, because in reality there is nowhere to put that money in IC. You have no opportunity to invest anywhere. You have no opportunity to buy new businesses. You have no opportunity to build some private alcohol production plant or auto parts production plant, like LSC. LSC has no reason to buy those parts and then use them for car repairs. People really have nowhere to spend their money. There are people who have 100-300 million in total property value on the server, but in reality there is nowhere to use them. Quote

Froosy Posted March 8 Report Posted March 8 Hello, this is a problem i felt like its true. Since coming back from break i've noticed how bad the inflation is, seeing people sell cars worth 150k for 30k more frequently just cause they need vehicle slots for something else. Also noticed lack of motivation to do anything as quiet a large sum of people having not much to work towards. All those points you listed nice and here are some more that could possible help. - Increase prices across the board. Houses and cars sure, but items that are recurring purchases are more impactful e.g. weapon imports, food/water, oil. - Restructure and strengthen the tax system, also introduce a tax department maybe. Have it so that tax evasion is more of a necessity for criminals. I really think this is one of the more important things, any method that pushes people to spend instead of holding during increased prices is very important. - Stock market trading. provides an opportunity for upside and downside. but important to keep cash moving around instead of being held. - More controversial, degrading cars - a car would lose its performance over a long period of usage. - Decrease wages. I remember when i first joined the server back in 2019, where having 100k and a warrener was amazing for a new player. But to be honest, new large money sinks is probably the best way. Also previous points are not fully thought through just ideas. Quote
jdotmo Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 I think another good way clean the economy of money is house upgrades. I think single time house upgrades would be an awesome addition. imagine if you could scriptly add a “shed” to your property or upgrade the garage from a 1g to a 2g, etc. The “shed” could kinda function like a warehouse but be accessible only outside the house. Would have like 200-500 volume depending on the level and have a lot of slots I am sure there are a handful of upgrades we can think of. Closets, etc 1 Quote

Closets, etc yeah we need incentive on having purpose on, spending money, possibly being abel to sell the shed individualy on a market to, so that we have can create an economy around it, this wil alow more person to person interaction aswel. idea is kinda wild development wise but when done right could be great Quote
