TonyRizzo Posted November 27, 2019 Report Posted November 27, 2019 I swear I made a thread about this but I guess it was a fever dream or something. Basically what the title says, make money an inventory item. Right now if someone dies, any cash they had on them is just lost, which obviously doesn't make any sense. You could still use /pay to give it to someone rather than having to drop it on the ground *cough* trade system *cough*. Besides neat little things like putting money in a briefcase for criminals to hand over to someone for a purchase, this could serve an actual mechanical purpose down the line. There's been a number of money counterfeiting suggestions made, and a counterfeiter could make the item, but only to a professional (ie detectives) would they know it was fake money. If someone tried to put it in the bank, it'd be fraudulent, which could lead to investigation RP on where they got the fake bill from. This also prevents people from counterfeiting millions and getting rich from it, unless they pulled some sort of laundering scheme which could honestly be cool too. 1 2
aXoL Posted November 28, 2019 Report Posted November 28, 2019 im agree with making the pocket money an item but i guess having fake money is a little bit too much and complicated to bring it here. +1 to pocket money as an item.
Mopop Posted November 28, 2019 Report Posted November 28, 2019 +1 I got a 350,000 loan once and I just got handed cash...it should have some form of volume too so as stated above you would need to use briefcases, duffle bags, etc.
iAchieve Posted November 29, 2019 Report Posted November 29, 2019 This has already been denied in previous suggestions; while cool, it makes it almost impossible for administrators to track rule breaks with money. 1
KCAJ Posted November 29, 2019 Report Posted November 29, 2019 +1 then you could have a money safe and store it in your house 1

Understandable, but I don't actually know what rule breaks can be done with money, you mean like someone straight up using hacks or something?

He means stuff like money farming, selling in-game money for out of game cash. The current way the system is set up to trace any fishy transactions. Making money a object would be nice but it would make tracking such activities much more difficult and elusive.
TonyRizzo Posted November 30, 2019 Author Report Posted November 30, 2019 Ah, alright, yeah that's definitely a good reason against it. I imagine coding a system that would track the movement of only the cash item would be difficult, but I'm not super familiar with it so I dunno.
kenichis Posted November 30, 2019 Report Posted November 30, 2019 Yeah last time I heard of this being suggested concern about RWT is prioritized over this.

There has to be way to counter this. As the money will be on your person just as an item it should still be able to be tracked with /stats and be logged onto the server.
