Xoza Posted August 3, 2021 Report Share Posted August 3, 2021 Greetings, This has been an issue for some time, brought up in other areas and vehicle discussions. Vehicle models, even asset names should not be available IC. If a player wants to know what kind of vehicle a vehicle is, they should look it up, ask an owner, friend or visit a dealership to see it. The information I'm talking about is mainly the turning on/off of the vehicle and ctrl+x+rightclick. Ctrl+X+Righclick should say "Selected Vehicle: <CLASS> [PLATE]" Ex: "Selected Vehicle: SPORT [DIR123]" Turning on/off vehicles should "/ame <Name> turns on/off the engine of the <CLASS> vehicle." at most. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAmTurtle Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 +1 i like this change. It should be an easy thing to do. But my question is how often does this get used to were it is a problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR_Seb Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 I understand your point but everyone can simply read the vehicle model at the back of every car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue is that it doesn't have any range, which is what is being abused. People can find out the model of any vehicle that is very far away from them by using this feature.

You are correct, and they should read the model of said vehicle, or know what model it is. There are several vehicles especially government vehicles that say models that aren't exactly what they look like, like "PoliceScout2" instead of "Scout". This suggestion is not to make understanding our vehicles more complicated, but to make them more realistic and increase RP interaction about vehicles and knowing them, with a little benefit of players not metagaming the difference between an unmarked government vehicle vs the standard model from a distance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xoza Posted September 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2023 Reviving again! This has impacted my own roleplay for years, as well as I'm sure many others. It should be a simple enough change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoza Posted December 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2023 Still hoping for a fix for this. Please remove Ctrl+X and On/Off vehicle name information. Identifying a vehicle should be IC and knowledge of the vehicle, or reference of said vehicle. You shouldn't get a free printout of exactly what the vehicle is. This impacts RP quite a bit, especially with law enforcement. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoke1 Posted December 19, 2023 Report Share Posted December 19, 2023 +1 I do agree for crim or Leo ctrl + x on a vehicle at unlimited distance isn't realistic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
