I put this on the old forums but I made some tweaks
$500,000 - $1,000,000 depending on quality of location
Buyer must own a gang and have at least 10 members in gang
Serves kind of like a coverup for Illegal activities (RP Wise) (Or you might actually run a legit legal company)
ex. Quenton’s Legit Mouthwash Company
Civilians can go into your business and select a job set by your gang from the NPC
Can set jobs such as “Gather #### hydrogen” for $ Payout or maybe $ per unit of material
-Materials gathered by civilians will store inside the building for the owner of the business to do with what he/she pleases. Civilians are automatically paid to their bank from the gangs bank account.
Items that can be put on job list
Canabis
Cocaine (Unprocessed)
Phosphorous
Ephedra
Meth Cocktail
Hydrogen
Diamond (Unprocessed)
Barley
Corn
Rye
*Legal, cannot be seized on a police raid. *Illegal, can be seized on a police raid.
Business only holds the materials posted above, and maxes at like 5000 weight ?
Limit 1 Business per gang per server
Gangs can change their prices per unit to compete with other gangs.
If a gang has more than 10 members online, they cannot rob a business. If a gang has fewer than 6 members on, their business can not be robbed.
After the addition of alcohol and the ability of aging, this brought a number of ideas in my head. Also this will give Gangs a reason to keep Drug Cartel again.
A lot of people do not do Heroin or Cocaine due to the payout and risk involved. But what if it offered a way to use legally bought ingredients from the market to add to the drugs to increase potency and payout.
Increasing Potency would be something like this.
Cocaine-
Current Process: Unprocessed Cocaine is gathered and taken to Cocaine processing to turn into Cocaine.
Added Process: Baking Soda is added to market and only available there - Processed Cocaine and Baking Soda taken back to Cocaine Processing and now have the option to make "Cut Cocaine". Time to Process will be increased compared to processing Cocaine. (This process would not take an additional cut for the drug cartel)
"Cut Cocaine" will sell for a slightly increased value.
IF we can use a similar "aging" process like the barrels in regular crates, if you place Cut Cocaine into your crate and let it sit through a reboot it turns into Pure Cocaine for maximum value.
Heroin-
Current Process: Opium is gathered and taken to Heroin Processing where it is turned into Heroin.
Added Process: Taking Heroin and Pain Killers back to Heroin Processing will add the option to create Black Tar Heroin. Time to process will be increased compared to Heroin Processing. (This process would not take an additional cut for the drug cartel)
Black Tar Heroin will sell for a slightly increased value.
Using the same aging process the Black Tar Heroin is placed into crates for the aging process to begin, after one reboot, it will turn your Black Tar Heroin into Pure Heroin. Pure Heroin will sell for maximum value.
*Cartel Change (s/o Fiddy Bread)*
Owner of drug cartel can exclusively use the fridge at drug cartel to "age" or "purify" new drugs at a higher capacity** (100 at a time)
**-or faster speed
-Creates urgency of contested zones.
-Creates new scenario of transporting goods to cartels (Robberies in KOS zone)
Limitations-
Stacks of 20, just like alcohol, are aged at a time to add a waiting period.
Make max payouts slightly higher than Meth, Meth should always be the quickest and fastest way to make money without the need to age.
Value this adds to the servers-
-Maximum payout will only be achievable being at least a donor level 1.
-More use of the entire map, more encounters for players of all levels.
-Cops will benefit as much as criminals. More seizures of drugs more money to be made.
-Leading to possible implementation of APD Drug Enforcement Slots. Talent tree of Confidential Informant adding in NPC "snitches" which give pings when cut drugs pass through cities etc. (Far Future Goal)
-Cops will learn to observe, follow, raid rather than engage directly. Tactics.
-Gangs will now WANT to control Drug cartel again. Increase struggle for power since that fridge is filling up faster.
-The use of legal items brings chance of wanted criminals entering populated areas to gather these items. Creates a cat and mouse game for police to follow and observe.
Implementation and coding-
Code has been written with Alcohol on aging process. Before the most recent patch alcohol was aging in crates. Use removed code and add in new drug variables.
Reusing Meth Cooking code to create the new drugs.
Low impact on mission file.
Low implementation time.
