  1. well, sadly I have no ideea how, I know that afk in public get him kick... and if you ask me... is more fun to drive than stay...a counter that you do something (like driving) , not write or /me... but similar to that.. could do the trick.... another way is to make it 60 minutes of driving... since you wait at red lights... will give him actually 4k at 2h... and... to be honest I see how the drive meter works on taxi now ? if we limit to max 3 extra pays like it is now... maybe they would not be attracted to do that... to make routes with checkpoints... I think it needs more scripting... but to be honest I am ok with the ideea of premade routes... and let's say you get some ammount at the end of the route. One over the other.... if we manage to give the bus drivers 4k+ for every hour they really play....we could get some drivers....
  2. As I pointed in the start, a scripted system that pays 4k for 60 minutes while in the bus as it has been on taxi, not active RP, because you cannot drive and RP as a bus driver... the request for this would be higher.... You should just RP when people get in and out.
  3. Where are they? I would like to see them and help.
  4. Because it is not working properly... that is why... If I stop to a red light the meter usually stops too... automatic.
  5. as a business case you are right, taxi si cheaper, faster and have higher ROI. but we talked here about realism and as for taxi it was implemented that extra income for every 60 minutes in shift, we can do this way here too.. that will support them to earn money even if they drives with the bus empty... with 4k in 24h in shift you cover the bus cost... and start earn something extra. For example I would put money and get 3 buses to support this. even that I know the income will be probably 0 for me as a business owner.... but if I drive side by side with employers, I can make one extra bus in around 1 week only from regular shift income. If all ticket will go as I stated before 100% to business /faction that will get some other income.. that support for gas/ extend of the fleet. I will 100% prefer to drive empty in the city making regular announcement and stop on red lights than waiting for 50 minutes for a taxi order, and then miss it because I type slower... and maybe even get asleep waiting to do a ride. ?
  6. well it is very important that indeed some people would use taxi, the ideea is not to kill the taxi service. But when a big ride from Paleto Bay to LS is needed for sure a taxi will get up to 1000$ maybe it will be 10 minutes faster... but is 950$ more expensive... ? .
  7. If they keep the station list it would not replace taxi..it is much slower, it will not pick u up from.where you are, and will not get you to exactly where u need. And if you are very unlucky, you might need to take more than just one bus to get to your destination. So if you can pay for taxi you would probably get the taxi. If they do not keep exact routes...it will become just a taxi with a big car ? and if nothing is scripted they could just rush and jump stations to get someone faster to the place they need. I think that a checkpoint route with waiting time to each station should exist beside just contracting some companies.
  8. Yes indeed, my idea is to make it quite free at start, like taxi to have the opportunity to get many of them on the street. (so if people have a personal bus to use it/to be honest I don't think that there are so many to have a personal bus) The stops will be interactive, they should pay for the ticket, and the ticket is on getting in the bus, not for the station.. or distance... like in real life, this part request real RP, and cannot be done without one. ? And the need is not just for airport/job point, it can be really helpful for prison/medical centers and why not commute between big areas... like paleto bay/blaine county/sandy shores/LS etc.
  9. Thank you, I edited it. hope now it is much better ? For more details I am here to help and brain storm this.
  10. Short description: Public transportation only ( bus, train, plane, coach) support. Detailed Description: We can make scripted premade routes to be done with public transport vehicles. This time we should limit only to this type of vehicles and no taxi's. With exact routes, players can know where they can take the bus. The players that takes the Bus pay a small fee like 10-50$ and the money goes 100% to the company. This will provide a good reason to invest by bussines, and the shift income should be enough to keep the drivers on. If you compare with the Taxi, here you have to drive and not be static between orders. Commands to add: Start/end shift. I think they can be reused from another job. How would this suggestion improve the server: It will be a scripted with limited spots that request 100% RP. And with 2-5 bus working on different lines the server image become more real. Additional info. I know that the request for this part is almost 0, and the old attempts have been complete fails, but with some incentive it might have a chance to exist's. now we have 300-700 players.. then we had 30-150 ? so we have a different status now, and you may notice the taxi is now working quite ok. This should be one 100% RP job even if it is scripted... it can be different than other scripted jobs, for example if we put a time to wait in the station like we had on courier job a while ago players cannot rush this. We can also rent to companies some specific routes ( ex from airport to license center/jail to the center of LS or between big areas ) this would leave a place for companies to exists (but this in future)
  11. 1. Not all factions pay's good, I have been member of a transportation faction with only rp action possible, taxi or buss transport. my income was exactly as with NO faction. So please don't point on the faction to be the saving choise. 2. When salary si 800 from where you cut 250 avarage rent, you onlt have 600 left to live 60 minutes, well, a beer si 100 tipical entrace to a bar is 300..... 3. Fines, a stadard speed fine or parking fine is 2500!!!!!! 5 pay checks, or if you are a courier on it early transports where you make around 450$/transport that take around 15minutes if you roll play... it take you more than 60 minutes to hard rollplay or 30 to just ignore the RP to just pay the fine for bad parking...and that is not ok, the fine should not be a pain to pay... and when you work 1H to pay or 5 salaries... well that is just mood killing. Take in consideration that not all the players have 6h+ daily to play, and think how much of that time you want them to produce money, and how much should the RP (life after work). 4. Buying properties are just burning money, really...if your computer is dead for 2 weeks you lose the house and it is imposible to ask for the money when you come back... so.. why not just renting 4 life? beside personal changes to the interior there is no real reason to pay for a house... and yes that will kill the RP on this side...(I did lost 170k this way) not complaing just a headup. 5. Another thing... if you rent the house there should be a limit of characters that can rent that house... it is far away of reality to rent to 100 players... really where do they sleep there?? ? to be close to the reality you might rent the number of character equal with the number of bedrooms from that house/appartment. Some of these points should be easy to implement ( 3, 4 and 5 ) P.S. If we have factions that pay 55k while we had(not having anymore) factions that payed 0.5k .... then we really really have a problem here. A trucker or a garbage man how many hours should play to make that amount of money with the correct RP? this differences are not ok... really...
