    Automated illegal transaction maker (patent pending):

    Once bought, you must simply press E on this item (will post model in a minute) to automaticaly designate an account to syphon funds from. Each tick, money will be automatically placed into the users account. Every 5 ticks, this must be reprogrammed to avoid detection, else, after a further 5 ticks, it emits a high pitched beeping sound to attract police. This can be stopped by pressing E on the item, or by destroying it.

    Original price: $250
    Profit per tick: $50
    Profit per 5 charge cycle: $250

    This is the most basic of contraband, it is illegal, and it is automated, so not to put off those who are used to just sitting and waiting. It should be the lowest money making contraband, but it should still be included to offer something to the core playerbase.

    Nothing to do about the machines but maybe you have a smell or diffence due to what contraban you use.. Like black ink on your hands for money printing.

    If only it was as easy as just deciding to implement them.

    Have patience, young grasshopper.

    Instead of breaking when they jam etc, maybe make it so they can be turned on and off, so they can be turned off while you buy supplies. Just an idea, so thoughts

    Will the Applejack Drug Mod be added to these as well?

    Printing Press

    LEGAL Use of the Printing Press

    Printing Newspapers

    1. Buy the printing Press from store ($2,000)
    2. Buy '10 Sheets of Fine Paper' + '1 Good Quality Ink'.
    3. Has 10 charges making $100 per charge.
    4. Jams after 10 charges.
    5. Buy '10 Fine Paper' + '1 Good Quality Ink'.
    6. Use the printing press.
    7. Goto 1. and repeat.

    NOTE: 1 Good Quality Ink costs $30 + 10 Sheets of Fine Paper costs $40. Both can be bought from the Supplier (making it a much more worth while class).

    Profit per 10 Charge cycle: $930

    Advantage: More charges until jam so it can be left unmanned for longer.

    ILLIGAL Use of the Printing Press

    Printing Criminal Propaganda Letters

    1. Buy the printing Press from store ($2,000)
    2. Buy '5 Sheets of Scrap Paper' + '1 Cheap Ink'.
    3. Has 5 charges making $80 per charge.
    4. Jams after 5 charges.
    5. Buy '5 Fine Paper' + '1 Cheap Ink'.
    6. Use the printing press.
    7. Goto 1. and repeat.

    NOTE: 1 Cheap Ink costs $10 + 5 Sheets of Scrap Paper costs $20. Both can be bought from the Supplier (making it a much more worth while class).

    Profit per 5 Charge cycle: $370
    Compared with Legal Method: $465

    You could use this idea for money printers, replace the type of ink + paper. The Black Market Dealer would sell the Blank Notes.

    This system could also be used to replace how people make notes. Look at printing press -> type /note message here (you need 1 Cheap Ink and 1 Scrap Paper for a note)

    Feel free to use this ideas for Printing Based money making methods.

    aren't the only people who can legally use money printers government funded?

    ALSO

    I hope that none of these things make too many physical entities because the printers themselves already lag the server, along with cars and other stuff...

    just wondering how that would work than...

    I support cheeses Idea, I think vendors would be a great addition to RP because no chef actually sets up shop and sells food, it's just not profitable and vendors can get you that cheap junk that is really necessary and still turn up a profit (I hope)

    I support this idea... I remember on a server there was a banker job, and everybody said I was a very good banker. Anyway more to the point  Tongue It was money printers like DarkRp Churning out $250, but I got people to make accounts ($500) and i would put in $150 into their account every time (people also donated printers) and this was a good idea. With this idea from Clown the same sort of thing can be accomplished
    RAWR! Be afraid!
