Here are other different suggestions to make the job more balanced.

Short description: Automatically assign taxi calls to on-duty drivers GOAL: Making the taxi driver job FAIR Detailed description: Currently the taxi driver job is race to see who types the fastest to accept taxi calls. Of course if you use key binds you can easily ruin it for everyone. During the past few weeks the server has had an increase of taxi drivers as the job rises in popularity. Here's what I suggest to make it not only actually fair for everyone, but also realistic. The process of accepting a taxi call is to be changed. It should work as described: - Caller makes a taxi request. - The nearest taxi driver automatically receives the request. - This taxi driver has 15 seconds to type /taxiaccept to take the request that was automatically assigned to him. - If he does, the caller gets notified and everything works like it already does. - If the taxi driver does not /taxiaccept because he's either AFK or doesn't feel like it after 15 seconds, another driver is assigned the call automatically, and the process repeats itself. - When the taxi driver is assigned the call and prompted to accept it he should be told how many miles the customer is away from him. - The taxi driver should have the option to do /taxireject or /taxidecline to decide not to take the call and pass it on to another driver. - Remember the driver choosing algorithm always takes in consideration the distance from the caller. - If the 15 seconds run out and there are no more drivers willing to take the call / or no more to pass the call to: . The client is notified that unfortunately the call did not get accepted. Asked to try again later. - Drivers that do not react to the call assigned to them after 15 seconds should be forced off duty and notified. They'd have to /taxistart again to get back to receiving calls. . Why is this fair? Only way to fight against people AFKing on the job. And if you were indeed not AFK it's no big deal, just go back on duty. - Additionally, when you are assigned a request and prompted to accept or decline it you should also be able to /taxipass [targ] to pass the request on to another taxi driver friend of yours! Should only let you do it to someone who's on-duty and not busy (not on a request already). Very useful if your character works with other people such as in a faction, and wants to offer them the possiblity to take the request. Literally harmless and doesn't affect the fairness of the job, just a fun command! Commands to add: /taxiaccept - Accept the assigned request /taxireject or /taxidecline - Decline the assigned request and pass it on to another driver /taxipass [targ] - Pass the request that was assigned to you to another on-duty taxi driver that is not already on an on-going call. It should give an error message if the target player does not meet this condition How would your suggestion improve the server? It makes for a finally fair and balanced taxi driver job that I'm sure dozens of players will enjoy on a daily basis. It very much simulates a realistic taxi dispatch!! ps I can help script it. Items to add: None

Server time is UTC+0 now and I think it makes sense.

Bump...

This!

You should include this in the thread: Before attempting this you need to right click on GTA W Discord and select Privacy Settings: Then you should allow DMs from this server so that the bot can message you.

This is amazing! Full support.

This should be more of a bug report...

Server seems fine now ?

This really should be possible! Something like /renameoutfit [slot] [new name] ?

@Dev team please prioritize improving the trucking system ?

Indeed. Considering that Nervous and the devs are actively working on implementing our suggestions for future updates. Cleaning the subforum would be a huge favor for them, imo.

Aditionally, to make things more organised I think it'd be very smart to have an Archive per category. Currently it's like this : So have an Archive subforum for Game Suggestions, another for UCP Suggestions, for Forums, and Rule..

There are over 600 threads in the Game Suggestions subforum. I think a lot of them deserve to be archived. There are tons of duplicated suggestions. We can all agree that the Game Suggestions subforum is a mess. There should be a group of people dedicated to moderating the section with actual powers of archiving threads. It definitely needs some cleanup...

Towtrucks!! Yes! Fully support this.
