JDBooker Posted August 18, 2019 Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 I think that pocket money should actually be in your pocket. There are many reasons that this would be an improvement, but these three immediately spring to mind. 1) when being robbed it is not very RP to "pay" the robber, the robber should be able to take some, or all of the cash, straight from your pockets while frisking. 2) when renting a property, the renter could leave the cash in a prearranged cabinet or safe for the landlord to collect, meaning they do not need to be online at the same time to pay/receive rent. 3) when running a club/bar/casino the owners and operators should be able to store away excess cash in a safe, to save carrying too much on them. These are all standard practices in the real world and should really be RPd the same way. I think cash should stack up to $50k per slot allowing up to $900k to be carried in the 18 inventory slots. In real life money, $50k in $20 bills, would weigh just under 2.5kg (2.467kg as each bill weighs 0.987 Grams). This means $900k weighs just under 45kg (44.415kg). Again this is very close to maxing the inventory weight. so it all works out well. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gramz Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 +1 but probably need a briefcase or tape bricks of cash to your torso and legs to walk around with almost a million in cash on you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikex Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 This was already suggested and while it seems like it's a great idea, it has major downsides. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine having 50k pocket money and you need to pay someone 500$, good luck splitting it! We have wire transfers now. nobody currently uses is because of the 5% tax, and paying is free. so that would be an incentive to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of respect for OP I won't detail it but it would be nice to be able to type in how much you want to split. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBooker Posted August 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Just now, Liam Crawford said: Incentive or not, it's very unrealistic to split your money constantly. Imagine going for grocery irl and you have 500 bucks on you but you pay 60 bucks and you have to split every time. Makes 0 sense. i dunno, when i go shopping in open my wallet and thumb through the stack of notes and then give the cashier the number they need. sounds legit to me.

Flucifial Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Hello, thank you for making this suggestion. We will not be accepting this suggestion at this time due to the fact that if money was an inventory item rather than it's own item, it would make it hard to track and could cause a number of rule breaks. Kind Regards, Flucifial 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
