Bala Posted February 22, 2020 Report Posted February 22, 2020 Okay Eclipse, we need to talk. I know there was an issue with people not role-playing interacting with the bodies, but adding these timers ain't it chief. It just draws things out unnecessarily, whether it's for cops/medics clearing bodies on a scene, criminals having to pick up criminals to be able to kill them off because of Rage or whatever. Since it's been implemented, it's clearly the plan for there to be timers, but can we change the timers. In real life, I understand that doing things like lifting heavy objects (like a corpse) would take some time, but as it is currently, it's just plain inconvenient and in the case of storing or dropping, putting someone in the trunk is cumbersome. Picking up Body - 10 seconds to 6 seconds if they are alive, 3 seconds if they are dead. Dropping Body - This should be instant, if i'm carrying something and I want to drop it, I can do so instantly. Storing a Body - Should be the same time frame as unlocking the trunk so like 3 seconds. You are dropping the body in a certain way onto something, gravity is doing the hard way. 15 4
Phantas Posted February 22, 2020 Report Posted February 22, 2020 +1 Having to ooc pick someone up in a gun fight to resync them when there trying to call cops or send texts for back up to be able to kill them is nearly impossible now as it just takes too long. 2

Bala Posted February 22, 2020 Author Report Posted February 22, 2020 This ain't a PD v. Criminal thread either, like everyone loses with this.
kenichis Posted February 23, 2020 Report Posted February 23, 2020 Remove to the timer or shorten it to no more than 2 seconds for carrying and instant for dropping and instead add an /ame for carrying. +1
Hootless Posted February 23, 2020 Report Posted February 23, 2020 +1 OOC pickups are horrendous now. It can influence situations heavily especially when dealing with rule-breakers talking on the radio or calling police. 1

justpositivity Posted February 24, 2020 Report Posted February 24, 2020 +1 You can tell that this really is a problem. This is putting both Criminals and Leos at a disadvantage. Something needs to be do be done ASAP. 1
Bala Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Posted February 24, 2020 The system is already in, only requires a tweak and pushing the changes.
Phantas Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 The worst is now when you pick up a dead body by accident when you mean to pick up your friend who is bleeding out.
Arnis Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 +1 Agree to this got fucked over by pd cuz it was taking to long to pick somone up
IsThisSeige Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 Semi +1. I think removing the timers overall would be a better fit. If you think about it, by the time you do the /me’s and /do’s the timer would have been done. Deeming it to be a drawn out process. Other things like when you need to finish someone off and you can not due to the rage multiplayer desync, it prolongs the situation so long. I think it would be better to remove totally than keep it.
Dylan Ortiz Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 +1 unnecessary amount of time to do it just like drinking water. 1
