Allow admins to choose house locations?

Post by Maxima_Royal »

I've thought about this suggestion, but still not sure which way would be better. What are your thoughts?

There are advantages, and disadvantages for both.

ADMIN'S CHOOSING LOCATION:
Advantages:
1. No-one else will be able to purchase your property location (Unless you sell)
2. You could make your house rentable, and make profit at each paycheck.

Disadvantages:
1. Buying a property would be at a much higher price depending on level, and location.


CHOOSING YOUR OWN LOCATION:
Advantages:
1. Choose almost any location you like to place your house, and car.

Disadvantages:
1. Several users may own the same location, with the same car respawn area.
2. Lose any carlock when you sell the house.

Dynamic Housing is so much better, this gives you way more options.
I'm not sure, but it would seem that having to code in houses every
time someone wants one would be more work for the admins.

I definitely say No to this. There are other servers out there that have
this type of housing system and it sucks. Some people come here just for
the Dynamic housing and customized godfather script.

you forgot several things...

ADMIN'S CHOOSING LOCATION:
Disadvantages:
1. Buying a property would be at a much higher price depending on level, and location.
2. Depend on an admin to be on and in the mood to "allow" you to buy a house
3. Since there are so many houses, there would probably be only 1 admin incharge of that so there won't be any conflict which means if he/she isn't on, you are screwed, and when he/she are on, everyone will bother them
4. Admins sometimes (like every human) take things more personally. You would have to pray you are not on the admin incharges black list or else you are screwed.
5. You would have to wait ages to move, since you need to first sell, then buy, and make sure that the admin incharge allows you to buy before you sell, which is a big mess...


I can keep going... this would create a huge mess with the houses and annoy a shitload of admins...

The current system is fine, and great, as it is. I haven't seen it done anywhere else, but then again i haven't really looked.

When i first started on SAMP, on some of the gayer servers, i hated having to go around checking every house, seeing all of them had already been bought, having to rent one instead and not be able to get my own housecar.

The only real reason people really buy a house anymore, is for the car. Now that interest has gone from the banks at least. Static housing would take the ability to own a car away from alot of people.

Ya i think Dynamic housing with the ability to rent would be pretty cool if it's possible. On the condition that people renting don't get a key to your car and aren't able to buy their own, because that blows giant donkey cock on other servers.

static houses were removed because of the limited number of locations for them available, the pain-in-the-ass code updates (and subsequent server restarts) required to add more, and the general inflexibility of the entire system. i sincerely doubt they'll be coming back.

also as far as admins choosing houses for you guys, you people need to remember that we have literally tens of thousands of users, and most of them have houses. it's just not viable to hand-pick houses for everyone, we can't possibly do it and have time for anything else.

I would rather the Admins spend their time planning and executing awesome events, punishing rulebreakers, helping out people with problems, and getting into hilarious hijinks. Seems like this would take a lot of their time.

I have to agree with everyone liking the current system! I always thought the housing system on SZR was a revolution and so much more flexible!
PLUS with the ability to purchase land, and having the right to kick trespassers of your land, the problem is kind of solved.

Seriously, the dynamic house system on SZR is so much more flexible and independent! The process to buy a house would take ages! You choose your location, ask for admin approval; look for car spawn, ask admin approval; look for interior, ask admin approval; not happy with car spawn, annoying admin again, etc etc etc! Get my point?

Well done to to everyone who replied to a 1 month old thread.

This suggestion has been closed for weeks now, seems like the current housing system is fine.
