    do they just use gamelogic and the remove nearbyobjects command with map object ids?

    I dont know specifics of it, just that if too many are used, it can be laggy

    also maybe replace some of the broken-down buildings in Athira with small construction buildings that will be replaced with buyable homes in the future the small construction buildings will make it look like progress. 

    Hiding current buildings in cities is a little hard. From what I've been told the environment hiding tool if placed too many times, will start lagging the server. Im currently using three in this area, not to mention the ones used for HQ or anywhere else near athira.

  3. Got a few screenshots from what ive made so far, the idea is for this event to be a simple build, nothing too complex.

    [The other cartel location is seen in a screenshot where the green tower is. Roughly 400-500m away.]

    Code used for smoke. Will have to have devs make a ppeffect instead of this code since this is constantly destroying a vehicle.

    Spoiler

    "test_EmptyObjectForFireBig" createVehicle position this; wokka attachTo[this,[0,1.5,-1]];

    It could be a perk of gang fort. Anyone that owns gang fort can start this event and the other civs come and fight it

    The idea is to allow everyone to be able to start this event and give people something to do and fight for. If crimson caps fort and doesnt play the rest of the week, then this event is now useless.

    i like the idea of it starting randomly it would cause people to actually go and do something. 

    Yeah i now see how people could think this would be something like a rebel air drop or illegal vehicle drop. I more meant that this event would be a location for rebels to go to anytime to start this event.

    I like this idea but I think instead of just strictly bank notes it could also drop PC parts from the destroyed PC's in order to start the National HQ event. Those are rarely done because of the parts you need and this could be a cool way to get them. 

    +1 would be something to definitely add

  7. Im curious to see what you guys would have to say for something like this to be created. Im always down to hear out some other people opinions.

     



    Illegal Bank Transfers

    A helicopter that was being sent to the bank of Altis was shot down over Arms Island. This helicopter was transferring new computers for the Bank to allow civs to easily withdraw and deposit money. Fortunately the computer system that was in the helicopter survived but glitched and is now allowing civilians to go to the computer system and start an illegal bank transfer. Since these computers were going to the bank but were shot down, there is a chance that you may be able to find computer parts for the national robbery, inside the wreckage when finishing the event.

    Starting the illegal bank transfer will start a timer to be discussed by devs, and when the timer is up will allow civs to gather the bank notes that drop from this event. How much money is spit out when doing this event can depend on server population, or anything else that could depend on this. Civilians will be able to go to this area and fight another civilian that is trying to do the illegal bank transfer, APD will not be allowed to contest this. 

     

    How to start:

    The only materials you will need to start this event is going to be a Trojan Virus USB, you will go to the computer at the back of the wreckage, seen in the 4th screenshot, and insert that into the computer. A timer will start and you will have to defend the area from other rebels. After the timer ends bank notes and possibly computer parts will spawn and you're able to take those and break the notes into cash.

     

    Keep in mind that Id like to keep this as simple as possible so theres less dev work that is needed but adds something fun for civs to do. Im always down to make this area, if you guys have anywhere in specific that this event could be located let me know and i can work on making it. Any thoughts or ideas to add onto this would also be appreciated!

    It is a skill issue tho. I consistently play civ and win events even if cops have mks and Frits. The players are so much better now than they were in 2015-2018 when u used to play. U just have to adapt

    I’ve tried explaining this to these guys it’s like I’m talking to a wall.

  9. Because of your previous two AR's and the timing of when you are requesting this AR, I will only accept this under these conditions:

    Your current monthly time is 8.5 Hours.
    I will accept your AR under the condition that you make up the extra 1.5 hours for April.
    You will not be allowed to request another AR for THREE [3] months.

     

    See you next month and have fun!

    It’s not really a nerf. 4v6 in apd favor is more than balanced and a lot of the time the cops will win that

    Sure, but its never going to be a 4v6, i cant tell you the last time that we had a 5v5 6v6 8v8 [ Even matchup ] in an event. Its LITERALLY rebels have 2x more numbers than cops.

    Not applying to that dogshit, wouldn't waste a keystroke doing that. I've driven plenty of Ifrits over the last 8-9 years and I promise you, if we pushed a fed as the APD you would never make it out. 

    Then i dont think you can say that someone would never make it out, if you change your mind, we'd love to have you.

    How hard it is to pull into the fed with 3 Ifrits and triple drop + smoke a tower, bum rush up and take the entire section of the fed that tower is governed by?

    Come apply and ill give you a frit and you can see for yourself.

    Lets let all the career cops continue to gaslight everyone into thinking CIV vs. COP is perfectly balanced and then eventually

    Its not, Civs have every advantage at any federal event besides evidence and nikolis. Yall sit in deerstands and hold down right click until you see someone then quick peek them out of whatever vehicle they are pushing in. Please let me know how to push a fed in a hatchback / qilin without getting shot out because if i can figure out how to do that then by all means ill do that every event. 

    I think yall stellar boys are just so used to 2015 when everyone sucked and could push in a hunter and drop on people and MAYBE get a down. I do that in a frit and still get killed. We pull 3-4 of them because were not able to get close without getting ripped by some dude holding right click on 2nd floor of any fed.
