New contraband mechanics

[Navarov]

As of today, the mechanics regarding contraband such as weapons/drugs/illegal items are obtained via NPC interaction, what i propose is to further expand this, giving the map timed and automatic events such and a new currency exclusive to deal with in the black market "black money" wich cannot be laundered except via events with staff or the "Mule" mechanic, aswell a new form of valuables in the form of several knicknacks that can be pawned at a pawnshop

- "The Train" a train containing valuable cargo: Players can choose to raid it and armed forces will be on the lookout for it to defend it, ofc to not exploit it conditions are to be met such as a playercount, and a additional condition of 6-10 goberment officials to be on and in character for it to be activated.

- "A missing shipment" drifting boxes on the shoreline or sea or canal (depending on how available will sea or bodies of water be) wich ofc will contain valuables, drugs, weapons and maybe even "black money"

- "Mule" The mule is a NPC that using the same mechanics as the drug dealers have currently, will produce a "valuable" set to be delivered on a drop in exchange of "black money". tho this will be balanced to be only 10-20% of the total value you pay

-"Pawnshop" we all have useless items we carry around, pretty simple, a pawnshop that can buy ordinary items, and "valuable" items for 10-40% their original value

-"The Smuggler" the smuggler may be a better way to get a shooting iron than kidnapping poor 40 mins ago recruited enlisted that went stray on the street, the idea is the same as with the mule, pay 150-300% the gun value on "black money" and get a shipment with a random amount and random weapon, never military specs ofc, rifles, revolvers, tops a pistol never something that could make a big difference

-"The Partisan" this one i'd like to push it further, sounds like a good idea, might not be in practice but ofc it's a suggestion, the partisan is a member of the "resistance" or just some feller who dosen't like taxes or bureaucrats, he aswell deals in black money, mainly he offers you targets, value never changes, same payout if it's a oberst or a soldat, the main idea is for the resistance or mafias to always have a target, not sitting afk with their dicks in their hand doing passive RP, this means a constant climate of tension GOVT vs CIV vs INSG

 -"The Tailor" Need a quick get away? go to the Tailor, this is a new form of disguise, for a modic sum or a great sum in black money, you can change your appearance for 5 minutes to lay low, aswell the tailor will get you a escape route (respawn you). this will prompt the security forces to really enforce the document check on everyone.

 

these are my suggestions, i know some might be hard to implement mostly on the coding side, and some are relatively easy given they are using existing mechanics just adding another layer to them, hope you all like these ideas and have a wonderful day/night/evening/fuckifiknow

Very very ambitious things here I like some of the ideas like that of the Mule Driver or the A missing shipment, but a lot of it seems to Tailored to setting up civilian crime rp which a lot of people say this server was never really ment to have, I think if properly managed it could be cool.

I am in disagreement with the idea of The Partisan, this I think creates to much of a memey environment and can create holes to find ways to legally RDM witch is no fun. The The Tailor seems to overpowered for anyone to use its seems to be a get out of Jail free card which I think takes away from the RP of the police or what ever agency hunting you down. And the idea of a new currency is really interesting to me, but I think having it to basically be blood money that you cant spend until you wash it would be a better mechanic to less complicate the economics of the server if you were able to spend it . 

Also little nitpick but it would not really make sense to rob a train in NYC it would most likely be all passenger trains and subways so theirs no real cargo to rob.

 

Overall like I said ambitious I like some of the ideas but unfortunately I think they need a lot of refining, great post thought like to see it

also I just don't think all this could be added in time but I'm sure bits and pieces could be taken.
