BINGBONGBALONEY Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Short description: Allow players to set their vehicle's mileage. Detailed description: Implement a command that lets players set their vehicle's mileage, allowing users to RP dealing with a beater or a car prone to breaking down without having to drive for over 1500 miles, ticking over the script maintenance threshold. Players wouldn't be able to drop their mileage below what they're currently clocked at (think the restriction on lowering/raising your age with the /examine overhaul). Commands to add: /setmileage [mileage] EG. /setmileage 1750 - This would set your vehicles mileage to 1750. Maybe a confirmation message asking you to repeat the command, just for safety. Items to add: N/A. How would your suggestion improve the server?: More variety in car conditions and the choice for players to put themselves at a disadvantage for the sake of RP, me and a lot of people I know have always wanted the option to have our cars randomly breakdown and act weird but driving around for hours upon hours to force up mileage for cars that are by default shitty conditioned cars (Tornado, Emperor, Duneloader, etc etc.) seems a little silly and we should have the option, especially on a server that considers itself a heavy RP server. Additional information: N/A. 1 Link to comment
Jura Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Yes this would be a nice addition. I just wonder if it would work well with the maintenance script that's implemented or if things would get funky? So that may need to be tweaked as well. Link to comment
Fernando Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Yes. Makes sense that you should be able to set a high mileage for an old beater car you magically obtained off a dealership with 0 miles. Link to comment
Akaya Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 +1 Makes no sense for cars which are supposed to be 20-50 years old to come with 0 miles. Link to comment
Developer St3fan[NL] Posted September 20, 2020 Developer Share Posted September 20, 2020 We can add this and calculate back what the last maintenance should be like so its not getting funky Link to comment
Christofo Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 That's a great idea, creates immerse Roleplay for the vehicle and character development. +1 Link to comment

zaXer. Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 watch what happens when you start seeing cars with 150k miles and people posting ads with "REAL MILES" in their cars with 500 miles. it sounds good on paper as a suggestion but I think it would cause more problems than it'll solve. 1 Link to comment
BaBulie Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Just make it so that you can only add more miles, to prevent people rolling back the mileage before selling. Link to comment
