Allow Automatic Gun Selling Shops

[GarbageCan 0]

Reasoning: AFKing is extremely popular in the server, with at least around a fifth of the server population either afk in their own compound or at spawn. The rest are actually playing the game. But what if all the gun salesmen just so happen to be afk, or worse children? No need to worry, the smarter gun salesmen can make their own automatic gun sellers or gun vending machines. No longer will you have to search the entire map for seller when there's a vending machine just down the block. Although of course there might be some questions that come along with this idea.

Issue one; "How will they be radiable?" 

All automatic gun selling machines will be fully robbable. Raiders can both, force the gun salesmen to open the vending machines and give up the money inside them, or the raiders can take the money themselves. This keeps both the gun salesmen and the vending machines robbable and radiable.

 

Issue two; "How will this solve the problem of salesmen being AFK"

We all are looking for some way of making life easier, however sometimes this ease comes at a cost. This cost is a much more simplified way of generating money. The only con behind this is how much money it can generate and how big of a target it is to criminals. Because of the money it can generate, and much like printers, the money can be raided pretty easily. Thus making gun salesmen not go afk in order to protect their hotspot of gun selling machines.

 

Additional information: All this requires is the moneypot addon and wiremod. This mod allows the storage of money in small compartments. This can be used to store, count, and dispense the money inputted inside the vending machine. Its simply too, all that's needed is the physical form of the money dropped on top of the moneypot. Upon pressing "e" on it, the money will dispense. Best part about this, is that it can be automated with the USER function from the wiremod feature. With all these addons, gun salesmen can have the ability to make their own automated shop . (Players will not place down automatic gun machines but will rather create their own)

Clarification on how players can make their own automated gun selling machine

[proggy 3,818]

I don't believe we will EVER add wiremod to DarkRP for several reasons.

Usually the players are aware when there's no gun dealers that they can just become a gun dealer and self-serve a gun or two without issue.
Or alternatively, people can just use !unbox to get a couple guns for fairly cheap.

Personally I don't think any changes need to be made to how guns are distributed in the server, because it's worked for years.

Makes sense. Wiremod does allow a little too big of a tool that can be used in a net negative favor. Thanks anyway though.
