Police dock

[Moe]

Pretty simple and needed in boat chases

Code: Select all

AddStaticVehicleEx(430,-443.55764771,853.31152344,0.00000000,89.50000000,-1,-1,15); //Predator
CreateObject(17068,-441.17556763,849.22998047,0.72499990,0.00000000,0.00000000,269.96008301); //object(xjetty01) (1)

The predators machineguns are overpowered, just give the pd some dighys.

no man the problem is the people get boats to evade the cops, the dighys are shit for that, these big boats are too slow it's impossible
and if these predators are added it would be great also locked for "Special Agents" like the seasparrow, it's special too

So if I understood you right, you're saying that dinghys are too slow to chase other dinghys and heavy yachts and you'd take the ability to chase people on boats away from "regular" cops.
So if people think dinghys are too slow, why not take coastguards instead, the performance characteristics of this boat are very close to the predator (and it is superior to the spawn-boats that would be typically used in a chase.) There is seriously no need to put in boats with mounted machineguns, the seasparrow is enough.

well you right there could go another police on the boat with an m4 mp5 who knows

[Duane_Denroy]

People lag to all hell on a boat, no matter how good your ping is. The waves are different on the drivers screen, so when you are up, they may be down. It causes people to fly off too easily. I was going to post this suggestion, but then I got lazy. Any problems for it being too overpowered are contained by it being limited to the water, and only certain ranks can use it.

[BigAssGoat]

You can shoot boats with a seasparrow.

[Silver_Leo]

You can shoot boats with a seasparrow.

boats are much much faster

[BigAssGoat]

Seasparrows can fly over land.....

[Silver_Leo]

seeing as you've never flown one i guess you think it's fast and deadly... it's twice as slow as a maverick

also flying over land, big whoop. Drive in a straight line with a boat, live forever

[BigAssGoat]

same goes for shamals so why dont you ask for a hydra too?
just catch people before they get to a boat or let them drive their boat and wait for them to come back to the land...?

[Panzerfaust]

I think the idea is that people shouldn't be invincible if they just decide to drive in a straight line in a boat forever to elude us, a problem you still haven't resolved with any of those suggestions. If you think that won't happen, we're talking about the same server where people will switch to wheelman and spend an hour in a helicopter just to avoid five minutes in jail or a shootout. That is not nearly as possible now that helicopters aren't public, but hey, what does that matter when you have something just as good (and probably faster) that you don't even need to have a special job to operate?

[Juke]

all you really need is a fast boat

get out of the driver seat and shoot the guy while you coast a while

repeat

[Moe]

Lets say this dude has the same boat as I have and is impossible to catch up with, once you actually catch up with him, you loose him because you have to constantly f in and out, then if this guy is a wheelman so he would be uncatchable.
If the guy can't repair and is low on HP, they'd probably do something like this:

[Juke]

you're right if you had a predator he wouldn't have logged to avoid

[vikki]

i think the admins want people to be able to escape police guys, otherwise there's no point in having the arrest function anyway and we could just use the autopunishment systems other servers have

[SHE HULK]

Maybe have fuel on boats, so they can't evade forever, and maybe same with aircraft

[Rob]

anybody evading in aircraft is already going to be impossible to catch if they have the shamal (even with the harrier) and there's really no way to do anything about that fact. if you want pd to be really anal about catching people (seeing as how they haven't even bothered to stop people from shooting each other there's no indication that this will ever happen) then give them a rustler

rustler can be used against boats as well problem solved

ps any fuel idea for anything is terrible and deserves to be left back in 2006 where it belongs
