  1. So, maybe not an account with compounding interest, but maybe smaller accounts? Like, accounts that can only have 100K in them or something, no interest. Just a way to have "Project" accounts. "Okay, I need to save up 800K for this. Let me put money away into this account I can only see the ammount of by going to the bank, or through the app, out of sight, out of mind."
  2. I think there's really no reason to add any more houses or trailers or anything to Sandy. The POINT of Sandy Shores is to be a failed town. Riddled with drugs and poverty, and people with nothing left to give. Too far from anything to be worth investing in, with no serious resources worth exploiting. The "nicest" buildings are the government ones, cause that's the only place the budget is spent. The FD is mostly there for the local state properties, because if any of the local houses start burning, they'll either cause a chemical explosion from a drug lab, or be a pile of doublewide melted plastic by the time anyone arrives. Sandy needs abandoned lots and hide-aways for criminal elements to do drugs or other crimes. The map is too small to have many open air places that aren't in immediate view of a passing LEO car on some highway or another. Abandoned lots for bike gangs to chill in before going for another ride. To MAKE people feel depressed and hopeless, because if you're in Sandy, the only lower you can go is a long walk into the lake. It sucks, but that's the point. NOTHING in Sandy should have any reasonable property value. Its pointless to even flip the area because no one would buy it. Grapeseed has no place to expand. Its a moderately successful modern farming community. Its economy revolves around the fields. The houses of the workers and the few shops on its moderately successful main street to support the town. The lake is right on one edge, the mountain is right on the other, the airport is clearly supposed to be low key, small, and out of the way for an "out of sight, out of mind" mentality, and the highway wraps it up. Paleto bay is the middle income option in the mountains. The more well off members of Blaine county tucked in what is a nice, successful tourist town. And when someone says they "Going into town" for something, its probably going to Paleto. The main crux of the issue is the simple fact that the map is as condensed as possible without breaking the flow and feel. It was first and foremost a single player game based around set piece locations that were simplified caricature of their respective cultures with just enough room around them to transition between biomes. It was NEVER intended to have thousands of players all looking for a single location to own, and no major map modding will fix that. If we need more personal housing, Then we're going to accept more game-y options such as Trailer parks with portal entrances that have more interiors than exteriors. Remove any kind of player to player renting in the country or it'll never change ownership, just tenants. Easier activity checks for staff as well as visibility of sale status. Price limits/standardizations to prevent a runaway housing bubble that outpaces the servers economy. But I don't know the Staff limits or script options to give too detailed of a design suggestion.
  3. I think what would be an important fact, is if you need to put your name on an account or not. I think you should. If you do an illegal trade and give someone a routing number, and then the cops learn about the number, they can ask the bank for the contact info of the account number. If you can easily make accounts with false info, I expect bigger issues. But if accounts need names then cash is still the best way to move money around without tracing it. But in the end, I support, fully. Give me an option to put a savings account with an option for a /perpaychecktransfer
  4. As a new player, I figured you only got payed if you worked. I figure make OT an option, with how much extra and at what rate, a variable. Maybe even set it per person? so a faction or job can use it as a perk. "We offer up to 10 hours OT at 1.5X!"
  5. A 4 way stoplight intersection. Per Penal code 1507: Okay, makes sense, but wait, 1512? Okay, lets go there... 1512 What is a "Rolling stop"? Does this mean I can slowly roll through and don't need to stop? Everyone I ask says you HAVE to -STOP-. But this law specifically says OOC, you can roll. Can we just edit the OOC bit to remove the "Rolling stop" bit to make sure we're all on the same page? Thanks.
