Car Theft

[Sneak]

Add an NPC that lets you scrap player cars, there should be a level of RP to Hijacking a vehicle. After scrapping the car you could get a monetary gain and lock the player from respawning their vehicle for 5-10 minutes.

could be abused/manipulated extremely easily,

have a friend spawn a car, lock pick it, scrap it. and just repeat that cycle. a cooldown on them spawning that car won’t really stop it, just slow it down slightly.

Mitigate my implementing a stop system, unable to process the same players car within an hour

and then you’d just have 5 friends doing it to each others cars in a cycle, don’t really see that detouring anything

Sure, but only if you change the rules on initiating combat against a lock picker/door checker of cars.

As it stands, any prick can go around checking door handles and try to lock pick them.
 

Wanna be more than just annoying as fuck and potentially steal from the trunk/cassette player? Wanna gain monetarily from stealing my car and fuck me over even more? Prepare to be hospitalized or even PK’d over it.

Just make it so if your car gets scrapped you have to pay to get it back, an amount higher then you gain for scrapping effectively removing money from the economy

Big DarkRP energy.

 

It would be abused to high heaven. Even implementing a '1 hour restriction', you'll just get people going around and stealing peoples cars, dying and then finding another car to steal without any repercussions.

+1 these haters are dumb

Sadly I can see how this can be abuse, but it would be fun.

hours of cooldowns for individual cooldowns per car per player lol

 

if car1 owned by player1 gets scraped then they cannot

scrap car2 owned by player1

(obv a cooldown between different players cars too)

but they can scrap car1 by player2

 

an achievable xp thing gotta be added other than strength please

so truth

Also worth noting, what's to stop friends, faction members or allies agreeing 'hey you steal my car, he steals yours and i'll steal his' 

 

Just sounds like a headache for staff, waiting.
