  1. Chapter 13: "Still alive..." (Bad deeds always catch up with you.) Life goes on for Kolya as he tries to get himself back on his feet - socialising, selling a few cars and making a few new friends. This drug-free lifestyle is doing him well until his past catches up with him and the owner of his illegally-appropriated Neon finds him. This ends with a high-speed chase followed by the pursuer flipping her car down a 30-foot canal. 13.1.1 At this point, Nikolai is contemplating his choices, whether this is his problem or not - and weighing the risks and benefits. A few seconds later, Nikolai is racing down the Canal, making his way to the wrecked Sultan Classic, running out of the Neon and dragging the unconscious body out of the vehicle. With the victim completely unresponsive, he checks for a pulse and drives her to the nearest hospital. 13.1.2 The crash site: Nikolai later gets acquainted with the female, who considers herself as extremely fortunate and full of gratitude towards Nikolai, half-forgiving him for his actions involving the Neon, though never mentioning it again. 13.1.3 "I didn't even hesitate..." (A realisation that getting involved doesn't always benefit everyone.) Further into the week, Nikolai finds out that Ruby, the victim of the crash, was pregnant at the time and - due to the severity of the accident - was forced to terminate her pregnancy before surgery. Overwhelmed with guilt, Kolya turns to Steph, who at this point may as well be his full-time therapist, for advice. 13.2.1 "Fuck..." (The end of an era.) With the crash and Kris' death still on his mind, Kolya resorts to driving around to clear his mind. Unfortunately, the only thing that this leads to is speeding around while having an unclear mind. The sirens get louder, as Nikolai passes a cop while speeding. At this rate, he's facing a few years in prison with the volume of crimes he can be accused of - so fear takes over as he plummets down city roads at alarming speeds. 13.3.1 Eventually, Nikolai takes a wrong turn and, as coincidences go, this had to be the worst possible outcome. A police officer on his tail and a Sherriff officer in a tunnel, Kolya collides with him at over 100mph - knocking himself unconscious on impact. 13.3.2 The crash site: While clearing the scene, unaware that unconscious Nikolai is suffering from severe head trauma, a loaded gun is found on Kolya's person, which delays the hospital trip even more. This allows for Kolya to haemorrhage into his brain for 30 more minutes before he is admitted into the ER, already in a coma. During his surgery, Kolya is declared dead at the operating table. 13.3.3 Final few words: This chapter marks the end of Kolya's story. Special thanks to everyone who made this experience truly unique, and good luck to you all ❤️
  2. Oh, could have sworn that I went to look for one xD Must have missed it somehow lol. Thanks anyways.
  3. Yeah, this needs a bump. At this point, it's near enough impossible to get a door lock because the car part system is really not worth it.
  4. This doesn't sound like a bad idea. Definitely supporting ? Edit: It would actually be quite nice to see large cash sales done using duffle bags rather than just /me hands over 500 grand in cash.
  5. Chapter 12: "I left it right here..." (Money troubles and an increasing addiction.) Kolya makes it back to the US in search of a new life, or maybe in search of his old one. Still troubled by Kris' disappearance, he finds his one prized possession, the Neon that he couldn't persuade himself to sell, missing. 12.1.1 Running out of pills and money, Kolya dumps his efforts of finding help and tries to find his neon. After a few less pills and a few more restless nights, Kolya finds his Neon - and steals it back. 12.1.2 "It's good to be back.." (An unexpected reunion and a decision for the better) A few days in, Kolya runs out of pills and can't find a supplier to fuel his addiction so his withdrawal symptoms start hitting harder and harder as the rations decrease. Then, one day - he meets an old friend at a gas station. Completely ashamed of his current condition, he didn't notify anyone of his return and wasn't too pleased with the terms of the reunion, despite him desperately needing help. 12.2.1 Noticing that Kolya has been on the road for a while, Steph invites him into her home so that he can sort himself out and to catch up. It doesn't take long for Kolya to start spiralling further into his withdrawal, showing symptoms that included random convulsions, an extreme fever and continuously spewing up anything he tries to consume. 12.2.2 Afraid of his condition getting worse, Kolya secretly finishes off his final ration of Morphine pills in order to give Steph a well-deserved explanation. He notifies her about his addiction and explains himself for leaving so abruptly. She eventually persuades him to go into opioid detoxification. A slow and painful process that flushes all the drugs from his system. 12.2.3
  6. Try launch the game with task manager open (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC) and take a look at your performance while running the game or after a crash. My best guess would be not enough RAM, in which case you may want to shut down some background programs.
  7. Chapter 11: (Based in Russia) "Still can't find her." (Kolya's search and a final gift to a dear friend, and the start of an addiction.) Months pass by as Kolya searches for Kristina, bouncing around between Poland, Slovakia and Kaliningrad. During this time he feels guilty for leaving his friends in LS with no explanation for his immediate departure and sends a portion of the money he brought with him (~$800k) to his dear friend, Steph ((@Perstephone)), as a gift. 11.1.1 As more months pass and October comes around, Kolya makes a few friends in Kaliningrad and decides to stay there temporarily, claiming that he needs a distraction from his search. During this time of partying, drinking and having fun, Kolya becomes physically dependent on an opiate, Morphine. At the time, this doesn't seem to be a bad idea, as it helps him relax and forget about his problems. However, one drawback of being excessively relaxed and having almost 100 million Rubles at your disposal is that you tend to spend a lot of them. 11.1.2 60mg Morphine Pills "I've lost everything..." (Kolya's financial and chemical downfall leading to a slap back to reality.) Kolya parties more, and spends more money until his money fountain runs dry. At that point, he realises he has spent his remaining 1.5 million USD on fake friends and a severe morphine addiction. He quickly counts up his supply of pills and purchases a plane ticket back to LS as soon as possible in order to retrieve a stash of gold bullion worth $400,000 USD, which he had left there for emergencies. 11.2.1 8KG of gold, worth just under $400,000:

    Fuel Efficiency

    Totally agree. A script could be dropped in where a stock faggio doesn't consume as much fuel as, for example, a modified Kamacho. Also, an idea would be to change the prices of refilling each vehicle from 0-100%, based on their fuel tank sizes. Maybe this would allow the "fuel consumption" script to stay the same, because generally speaking, vehicles with bigger engines have bigger fuel tanks. Just an idea though.
  9. Chapter 10: "I don't know where she's gone, and I don't want to know..." (The biggest turning point in Kolya's life and the start of a terrible series of events.) As Kolya anxiously awaits news from the hospital regarding Kris - his childhood friend and soulmate of countless years - he gets a phone call from the hospital stating that Kris has recovered and that he can visit her. As Kolya arrives at the hospital, he is greeted with an empty hospital bed and is informed that she's been allowed to leave due to her recovery. 10.1.1 Days pass, weeks even, and Kolya hears nothing from or about Kris. Influenced by the fact that she attempted suicide a few weeks in advance, he assumes the worst-case scenario, that being one of Kristina's death. Unable to cope, he blames himself and sells most of his $2.5 million worth of possessions and purchases a one-way ticket to Kaliningrad (Russia) out of grief - only notifying his long-time friend, Steph, of his departure. 10.1.2 This chapter marks the end of the Kolya that everyone knew, as he will never be the same.

  11. Chapter 9: "It wasn't making enough money anyways..." (Kolya sells his club, buys a house, impulse purchase #7) After Kolya becomes aware that sometimes less is more, he decides to sell his most inefficient source of income, Out of Towners (5.3.1). This meant that Kolya could afford a new house. His location of choice? Right in the middle of mirror park. This decision meant that he could finally move out of Kristina's condo in Hawick. 9.1.1 2600 Bridge Street: "Every silver lining has a cloud" (A return to how life should be) After a few weeks of peace, Kolya has started to bring his senses back to normal, appreciating his work and prioritising making himself happy in non-materialistic ways, still enjoying running and exercise. Continuing his life in a normal way in which he psychologically benefits, Kolya fell blind to what was going on outside of his view. 9.2.1 A casual Sunday run: "For fuck's sake Kris!" (A close suicide) As Kolya comes back from his run, he notices Kristina's car parked in his driveway, heading inside. After only finding Hiromi inside, Kolya walks upstairs to find Kristina passed out on her bedroom floor with an empty pack of anti-depressants laid beside her. Going into a slight panic, Kolya follows his instincts. 9.3.1 An attempt to save a life: After removing most of the drugs from Kris' system, Kolya drives her to the hospital where he and Hiro await news from the doctor anxiously, unsure to whether Kris will make it due to the excessive amount of Fluoxetine in her system. 9.3.2 Anxious waiting in silence:
  12. Chapter 8: "Nikolai, you're going to work yourself to death" (Grand re-opening of VM, and a buildup of paranoia.) A few weeks pass after Kolya's unfortunate incidents and purchases, and Kolya's boredom starts taking over. As a result, he decides to re-open his dealership, Volkov Motors in order to give himself something to do. Unfortunately, this action of his wasn't supported by most of his friends as he is already known to work too much, and the addition of another business isn't likely to impact well on Kolya's mental health. 8.1.1 The conversation between Kolya, and his garage manager Steph: A few days after, Kolya's dealership is already open and running out of Mirror Park, turning over a steady profit and giving Kolya a distraction from real life. Due to the dealership being located in open terrain with not many routes for escape, Kolya's paranoia starts building as he is constantly reminded by the previous attacks at his other businesses and the death of his 2 brothers. 8.1.2 VolkovMotors 2 days after opening: "The more you distance yourself from reality, the smaller distance you traverse" (A step to achieving more than money) Stress perseveres as Kolya tries to keep control of his businesses, often resulting in multiple sleepless nights where he has to catch up on work from days before. This results in a valuable lesson, that the one critical part of life is enjoying the happiness brought around by it, rather than drowning out the negative aspects with more negativity. 8.2.1 This shifts Kolya's perspective on what he wants to achieve and pushes him towards another hobby: exercise. In order to feel better about his decisions, Kolya realises that he needs to be successful in many different aspects, not only work - which until then was his first priority. Due to this decision, Kolya brings it upon himself to become a more active person and start exercising - bringing a whole new meaning to his definition of happiness. 8.2.2 Kolya's new method of letting off steam:
