    1: I'm curious though Bizzy, will these lower tier printers be able to simply be stolen in general? Or would raiders only be allowed to destroy these, especially since it's aimed for more low level people (and 2-3 levels yields nothing for the common person lvl 20+)

    2: I also think high ranking staff should possibly have a way to reverse it, in case some dude fail raids and just claims all of someone's printers, etc. Or can people take their own printers back and stop the countdown that way?

    3: The statement above also ties into this, but what stops someone from claiming printers before they finish a raid as well? Sure they might get a warn, but how do we then save that person's printers that are now going to explode in 2 hours.

    1) Low tier printers can't be claimed but still can be stolen. But, if you disconnect and come back they'll disappear and you can just buy it again. Raiders can still destroy them.

    2) That's a good idea, but I'd rather for now people just report fail raiders and have their money refunded to them and money taken from the fail raiders. And if you take your printers back it doesn't stop the countdown. This is to prevent people from giving their printers to their friends for 2 hours so they can disconnect to do something else just to come back and keep their printers

    3) Nothing, there's a little menu that pops up that asks if you're sure you want to claim the printers, so that should stop people from spam claiming 5 printers in 2 seconds. Other than that, you just gotta keep ur printers safe 😉

    Personally think that the crafting system should mainly be for attachments for weapons

    Personally don’t like the idea of temporarily buffing weapons or giving advantages to players for crafting certain things 

    I made crafting rarity-based weapons random. So if you craft an ak for example, the chances of you getting a top tier ak is going to be super rare. So don't expect 100 ppl to be running around with insane guns lol

    I absolutely agree with Reeper in how we should mostly avoid stat boosts and I think cosmetic uses such as hats, body parts, or semi-cosmetic stuff like attachments are great. However, this also gives me an idea.

    We may want to take a look at the in-game credits shop for inspiration. Similar to the limited time use of those items, maybe you could craft those items for limited time use aswell. Let's say you make a medkit for example. The medkit could be limited by time or only lasts for 1 life but what I think works the best is having it be limited use so once you use all the heals then it gets taken away. This could also apply to guns so once you've shot x amount of bullets the gun "breaks" and needs to be repaired or another made.

     

    Cosmetics might be an addition in the future 😄

    Not so much a +1/-1 but more of a hypothetical. If someone steals my printer, claims it, but I steal it back, will my printer still explode? If there is a non-exploitable way for the owner of the printer to reclaim it as their own that would be a great addition.

     

    Now for an actual +1/-1. Total +1. DarkRP meta is too strong, and in a way, stale. Any way to crack into a base and whoop a level 95 with 85 gorillian dollars  without being cooked by a DLore is great. 

    If someone steals your printer and you steal it back. It'll still explode after the 2 hours from when it was initially claimed, it will not explode. This is to prevent people constantly disconnecting then reconnecting after an hour and reclaiming their printers from their friends so they don't have to rebuy the printers.

    Also, once a printer is claimed from the initial owner, it can be claimed by someone else but the 2 hour timer will not reset. That would mess it up for the original owner because now it can take longer than 2 hours for them to be able to rebuy printers

  4. NONE OF THIS IS CONFIRMED 100%

    Here are some of the things I've done that can potentially be added in the coming updates if the community seems to be for it and nutter butter is down

     

    Lets be honest...

    Right now, the meta is:

    - Build a base with a tight ass entrance 

    - Buy printers from other people

    - Sit inside for hours at a time and never get raided because it's impossible/pointless since you can disconnect and printers vanish

    - Become a trillionaire

    Here are some ways we can shake it up a little bit 😄

    Printer claiming

    - If you successfully raid a base, you will be able to claim the printers, so that if the printer owner disconnects, they wont disappear.

    - The printers are automatically destroyed after 2 hours if claimed

    - The original printer owner will not be able to rebuy printers (even if they reconnect) until their original printers are destroyed.

    - Printer farmers will still be able to buy other peoples printers, they just shouldn't claim them because they'll end up blowing up after 2 hours

    One major flaw to this...

    The main issue with this was it would be terrible for new players who can't build good bases. They'd get completely gutted by more experienced players who'll just come and claim their printers for two hours...

    The solution: (Shoutout to @TheBigMike for this idea):

    I've made a separate printer (which would be cheaper) that can only be upgraded 2-3 levels (whatever garnet sets it at). This lower tier printer CAN NOT be claimed and will serve as a replacement for people with less money who can't even afford all the crazy upgrades

    spacer.png

     

    So basically printer claiming will incentivize yall to raid, and incentivize yall to build better bases 😄

    Also, if someones printer gets claimed, they're more likely to RP as another job (like pd) until their printers explode

     

    And now for the more controversial one...

    Deployable Keypad Cracker Buff

    spacer.png

     

    What this buff can potentially bring:

    - Deployable keypad crackers will now be stackable. Meaning, you can have more than one at a time. There has not been a decision on how they will be sold to players (BMD, NPC, or F4 Menu), but you'll be able to get into a base just using deployable keypad crackers

    - Fading doors will open for a LOT longer. This number hasn't been decided (Garnet wants 30 seconds but thats too pussy) I think something more like 1-2 minutes would do the trick

    spacer.png

    - Also, so this isn't too OP. You will be notified if a keypad cracker is placed on one of your keypads

    spacer.png

    What is the point of this?

    Be honest, those bases with tight ass entrances are impossible to raid, so theres no point in even trying. One step in and your cocked by a dragon lore. If you get together in groups and use deployable keypad crackers, your chances of raiding successfully are a lot higher, and it forces people to be more creative with their base building

    Also, whats the point of printer claiming if you can't even get into a base 😞

     

    Cameras 

    I still don't know why cameras we're disabled, but I'm looking into getting whatever they were removed for fixed (like making them not physgunnable, or whatever). Don't get too excited tho I have no information about this yet

     

    Again, none of this is confirmed 100%. Please let us know your thoughts on this potential update. Since it would kinda of shake up the concept of raiding/basing currently, any suggestions help. Thx 🙂

    edit: 

    Nothing appears in the list for some reason, anyone know of a fix?

    Prometheus gives perma weapons in 2 different ways. I gotta make it work with both so will be fixed tomorrow hopefully.

    Well thought out and potentially a cool feature to be added to the server, although I can see some edge cases where implementing this could introduce some bugs:

    • What happens when a user disconnects, and reconnects with a claimed printer? Does their printer blow up on disconnect, reconnect, or nothing happens? Can they buy new printers after reconnecting?
    • What happens when a user switches to a job that isn't supposed to own printers (CP/Hobo)? Do their printers blow immediately? If so, what prevents someone with a claimed printer switching jobs then switching back for their printers?
    • Do you foresee this working in tandem with our existing printer plugin, or will it require a total retooling of the script?
    • If a printer is claimed once, then an hour and a half later, is claimed again, how long will the printer remain before it blows? i.e. how is the remaining time calculated
    • Will non-raiding classes be allowed to claim printers?

    1. If the claimer disconnects printer will disappear same as normal. If the original printer owner disconnects/reconnects they still wont be able to buy printers until their original printers disappear/are destroyed.

    2. Same as what happens now if someone switches to a non printer owning job. If they switch back they wont be able to buy printers still if theirs are claimed

    3. I made our current printers so I can integrate it easy. I had already made a claiming feature (without auto destroying) but took it off as it can be abusive

    4. If a printer is claimed once, and then again an hour and a half later, it'll still only have 30 minutes left. Basically if your printer is stolen and claimed your time without printers wont go over 2 hours no matter how many times it is claimed

    5. No

    Ok thank you so what it sounds like is it’s there’s till you log off and if they own it before you alt f4 2 hours after the claim is done they delete?

    Yea so if it's not claimed by the raiders, its there till you log off (this is for people that sell their printers and AFK). But if they feel like you're going to leave so you can rebuy printers, they can claim them to be safe and after 2 hours it's gone and the original owner can now rebuy printers.

    -1 I feel like changing such a crucial part of Darkrp wouldn't be received well and is a bit too complex

    If you really think about it, nothing is really changing a crucial part of DarkRP. The only thing that might shake things up is the breaching method but I think thats needed since raiding is impossible now.

     

    thanks yall if yall have any suggestions/critiques lmk so we can maybe get this done soon if more people support it

    +1

    reading more into this it sounds like a good idea in whole but some need tweaks 

    1. 3 minute fading door keypad cracker is too much time and can be easily abused by raiding teams I feel 30 - 15 seconds would be better

    2. The claim printers are kinda dumb, cause a lot of the time you re-raid the person who stole your printers and what happens if you have the printer after you re-raid them + what if they just don’t claim?

     

     

     

    mobil is hard

    1. 3 Minutes might be too long but I think we'd need longer than 15 seconds to have enough time to breach all the doors one by one

    2. If the raider doesn't claim the printers, they'd simply vanish when you disconnect, so they almost have to claim them to be safe. If you reraid them and get your printers back, the time would be cut in half until it destroys itself. This is to prevent people from constantly claiming the same printer for hours without having to buy another one.

     

    thx

  10. Here's an idea to make raiding more doable and gives players an actual incentive to raid

     

    Printer claiming:

    Note to printer farmers: YOU CAN STILL BUY PRINTERS FROM OTHER PLAYERS AND HAVE THEM AFK, THIS IS JUST A CHEAPER AND MORE FUN WAY TO DO IT, JUST DONT CLAIM THE PRINTER!

    If you were to get raided (haha get shit on), the raider will be able to claim your printer for 2 HOURS (can be longer can less, depends on what we agree on). Within that 2 hours, you can no longer buy a printer. After the 2 hours passes, your printer is destroyed (to prevent infinite money rats) and you can now buy a printer again.

    Once a printer is claimed once, it CAN be claimed again with another raid, but the time is now cut in half (instead of 2 hours, it's 1 hour until it explodes), and so on (1 hour, 30 min, 15 min, no more claiming...)

    Pros: 

    - Incentive to raid

    - Make more money if you're good

    Cons:

    - None because everything i make is flawless (events wasn't my fault)

     

    Base security system:

    For all the paranoid/to scared to go outside their base people, I can make a system that notifies you whenever a keypad is being cracked/a door is being lock picked that is owned by you. Make this cost like $5k or some shit idk

    Pros: 

    - Leave your base in peace

    Cons:

    - None because everything i make is flawless (events wasn't my fault)

     

    NEW BREACHING METHOD:

    Now here's the controversial one...

    Raiding now with the current tools is pretty much impossible. This is why people like me resort to hacks (which still doesn't help). I want to make a tool that is placed on a fading door (for 15-20 seconds), and if it isn't disabled (or shot?) will open the fading door for 3 WHOLE MINUTES. This provides enough time to breach the other fading doors without being trapped in a 10 inch square where you are 100% going to die

    This tool would be bought from a black market dealer, or for Police, it would be bought from an NPC in the PD (PD gets a better version of it).

    Make each one cost a lot because it can be seen as OP (not really, just defend ur base better)

     

    Pros: 

    - Makes raiding easier/more realistic

    - More of a reason to become a black market dealer

    - You won't be demolished by a Dragon Lore as soon as you turn around to crack a keypad

    - You will HAVE to be more creative with your base designs

    Cons:

    - None because everything i make is flawless (events wasn't my fault)

     

    Everything I've mentioned I can easily make within the span of a few days. 

    Please leave suggestions on wether or not you'd like to see something like this and the reason behind it

    Suggest improvements (realistic ones plz)

     

    Also, fuck tbh
