This is for the serious roleplay server, in real life if you buy a car, use it for a while, then try and sell it, it will have depreciated in value. Since on the server time progresses faster, the value of each vehicle will have fallen considerably before you purchase a new one.

You should not be able to sell it for the value at which you bought it.

Your right, but in real life can you buy money? I dont think so Cheesy, so i mean it should be a little different.  It's just a lot of money to buy insurance, a trabbi, and a golf, and a corvette, all with increasing insurance..

Re: Serious RP Server Car Mod

It's much easier to get money in-game than it is in real life, so we should make it cost less to do things in-game than they do in real life
What?

I see, no I was just making a statement that the money part is not like real life at all.  And if we had money donated on this current server, will it be transferred to new sever with the inventory?

Serious Rp will be drastically different, running on a new database. Nothing will be carried over.

The current server will still be run, so you do not need to worry about losing all your items, the serious server will be a new independant server that runs alongside the light RP server. We will be a lot stricter on this new server.

It will be a lot harder to obtain weapons and expensive items on the serious RP server, making guns rare, encouraging people to roleplay without killing someone every minute or two.

Re: Serious RP Server Car Mod

A few ideas are good such as having to pay insurance but I think it's a terrible idea that you only get say 20 hours driving time, it should be unlimited. I like parking my car outside places, and I'm sure that's why people park their silver corvettes and bp connect, to show off their wealth, so if they only get 20 hours and they leave it there 6 hours a day, it isn't really good..

To also reduce Car DM a point system should also be used, you are allowed a maximum of 13 points.

So..

1 point = Running a Red Light.
3 Points Speeding in a city area.
6 = Killing some one while driving.
So i can kill 2 people and still be safe. Cheesy

This is a great idea, although if we have to buy next car up until corvette, we should be able to buy and sell the car for the same price, making it where we wont be losing 10's of thousands of dollars.  That would make it much better. Especially with paying all this insurance -_-

personally i think a random number generator should be implicated, so... between 50 and 75 % of the cars original price. I do like the idea of being able to loose a license. but regarding insurance, if you dont pay your insurance, (after a certain in game time,)should become visible to police. or visible on your license, so the next time you are pulled over (maybe whilst in a routine check) it would show. So you could be arrested.

also. what will the be time of jail. 5mins on LRP isnt long.??
