Spawn random items in dumpsters


Recommended Posts

Detailed Description

After we added the dumpster script, I thought back on a guide for homeless RP, which emphasised on checking dumpsters for food. Now that we have an actual script for dumpsters, it would be really cool to add a chance of finding random items in it. (excluding weapons, ammo, melee and stuff like that.) I thought that maybe we could add a certain chance of an item spawning at a random time on the time (Just so we can make sure no one drives off all the dumpsters if we had a fixed time) and also add a certain chance for items to be spawned. For example, a sandwich, burrito, donut, taco, water or food item in general has like a 75% chance to spawn, while alcohol items (for example, doesn't need to be that.) have a 15% chance of spawning. Maybe even adding random jewelry that can be sold or worn could be spawned at dumpster. Their worth determine how low the chance of spawning is. I thought that maybe the base chance is 5%, for example, for a watch worth 3k or something. The further up the worth goes (eventually capping at a certain worth), the rarer the item is.

How will it benefit the server?

It could benefit homeless RP, dumpster diving could be a thing and so on. It could give us entirely new roleplay scenarios, such as people fighting over items they found in a dumpster, homeless people becoming incredibly lucky by finding a very expensive watch in the dumpster and so on. There's very very low chances of this being abused, as the chances are all random, as well as the times at which the items are spawned.

Gotta agree with this, as cool as this system is, it probably won't get used as is. Adding small things like this for the GOAT tier homeless who actually struggle to eat every day. The RP you can get out of finding some half eaten cheese sandwich alone is worth this existing +1

This would be a great addition for the homeless roleplay scene. Maybe somehow implement a system where if a garbage truck picks up the trash from a dumpster, nothing can spawn there for a set amount of time, maybe 12 hours or something?
