Looting people

This should be implemented as another side for crim RP as it would bring a bit more fear for life when you know you have a chance to lose what you have. As it is right now you don't need to worry about your items unless cops are around. So people would be less likely to try initiate fights over nothing as they don't wanna lose items.

This could be implemented fairly by making it a request to loot people (press H to let ID: X loot you). This would mean that people would not be able to abuse it freely as it has to be RP'ed from both sides. This should only be able to done whilst two cops are around so civs wont be unsafe if none are clocked in. 


There should also be a cool down for this function so people cant mainly base there RP around looting people. This should be done so that once you loot a person a 5 min counter starts and after that first 5 mins you are unable to search another person for 25 mins. This is so you could loot a group of people then after that you have to lay low for a short while.

I want this as from the standpoint of a crim when it comes to gang VS gang it gives you more ways to create a cool situation, I've had it before where we had a other crim who posed as one of us and shot people and all we could do to him without killing him was hitting him. I think having this in would open a whole new way for criminals to be criminals.

Looting People

PLEASE READ BEFORE LIKING/DISLIKING

Before you say, yes i see that there is a post "under review" for looting people, however that post is 7 MONTHS OLD. What i am proposing is that if a player kills another player, then they should be able to take their things, or at least some of their things. For example, If there is a 6v6 gunfight, and 6 kills the other 6, there is no reward for the group that kills the other. 

If the dead group all have m4s, lmgs, tecs ect. then they are either lost or they keep them when EMS revives them. The other group should be able to take things from them as it is a reward for winning a fight. 

Now to avoid this being abused, we can make a rule that only the group of people or the person that killed the player can loot the body and or can only take a certain amount of items or stack of item. And if this rule is not followed, for example if another random player comes up and loots them, then they can be reported and dealt with. This would make it so that people are actually loosing things and will think twice before entering a gunfight or possible illegal situation. 

This could also be implemented for robbing, flex your f6 muscle and you get the option to rob, however this can only be done if initiated properly and can only be done so many times so it avoids becoming loot city, There can also be an amount that can be robbed as is currently with the 10k limit. In regards to things like drops as well, if someone else steals a drop then you kill them you should be able to loot the supplies from them and also the 10k or whatever proposed limit. 

If you have any questions please feel free to ask! I'd like to see a discussion under here whether the feedback is positive or negative.

I’m not leaving it up to players to follow the rules IF we implement this in some way. I will force it through the script or my entire staff team will want to quit the server from dealing with all of the people who break this type of rule. Also, the feedback is great and don’t take this as a deterrent but there’s a reason nothings been done on that other feedback about looting people. Our current inventory system is really really really old and really really really bad. So yeah, still on hold until new inventory system is in and then we can see what we can do.

i agree that this would be nice, but i also feel like it could turn more situations into improper escalation type of scenarios. an argument turns into weapons drawn and fired, then they get everything taken. it seems good in theory but i think the important thing to remember is that we want roleplay over gunplay, and this would heavily allow and encourage more gunplay than we're already seeing. i think it'd bring a lot more reports and headache for the staff team just because people will shoot more often than they are right now so that they're able to take something from someone. 

do wish there were a better way to rob someone rather than just taking their word for it but i don't think that it should involve or encourage shooting. 

If you don't want this to happen then it's simple, you should be able to rob a person both when it's alive or dead.

If it would only happen with the person alive and not dead (to technically force the person to not shoot in order to obtain the loot) thinking it would avoid making a lot more shootouts that isn't the case. Most of the people will not fear for their life just to get themselves shot so they don't lose the stuff they have on them. So it should be both ways (alive or dead), so it would allow the situation to develop naturally and that's when you get less shootouts.

People need to start fearing for the stuff they carry.. hope this gets implemented in some way before 1.0 and the new inventory system..

THIS!!!! When robbing people now people just lie about what they have! its happened many times and people need to think twice before bringing things out with them!

If the person fears for life then they wont die, most of the time... xD

Also please in the future don’t knowingly make a duplicate thread. Just makes more work for us.
