Rebel v. Cop Player Event Idea

[Glass of Water]

In several areas around the map, there lies large structures untouched by players. These structures are power plants, solar energy farms and windmills. I had a great idea while reading the forums the other day about how to capitalize on at least one of these spots. 

It's a mix between bank and cartels. It moves around the map to different power plants, but the idea stays the same. The power plant is either held by rebels (not by specific gangs, just rebels/civilians in general), or by the APD. It is always a KOS zone, regardless of who holds it. But, if the police own it, their pay doubled, and every online APD officer receives a pay bonus depending on how many people are on and divided by how many officers are on (i.e. 6 people, one of them being an APD officer, are on and the officer recieves 6k, or 100 people are on with 10 being cops, and every officer recieves 10k. But, if the rebels hold it, dirty money stockpiles in the middle of the plant. The money remains through transfers of power, but no rebel can pull it out if the plant is held by the APD. If the plant is held by rebels, ANY person with a rebel license and an illegal firearm can pull it out, whether they just bought the license and they have an SDAR, or they're the leader of a big deal rebel gang rolling with 15 ifrits and every person armed with Mk-1s and RPGs.

For rebels to capture the power plant, any person, again, with an illegal firearm and rebel license, has to apply a SATCOM, purchasable at any rebel outpost. The person then must proceed to stand by the power plant controls for about 30-60 seconds while the plant is hacked. When the plant is hacked, a door will become unlocked and any person can walk into the control room, and pull out the dirty money. From there, as usual, the person must sell the dirty money at the rebel market. The stored dirty money has a cap of about 150-200k.

For the APD to capture the power plant, EVERY civilian must either be outside of the plant's KOS zone or restrained. Then, a police officer must restore the plant by standing in the control room for about 2-3 minutes. After capture, the plant is unable to recaptured by either side for another 15-20 minutes. 

The idea is that the power plant is making money by powering altis, so instead of rising by how many people purchase weapons or sell drugs, it rises based on how many players are on. When 1-20 players are on, it rises by 50 every minute. When 21-50 players are on, it rises by 150 every minute. When 51-80 players are one, it rises by 250 every minute. When 81-100 players are on, it rises by 1000 every minute.

So its a cartel but for police? I'm not really a fan as it takes away alot of time for police to be constantly defending this power station. Id honestly think it would do better if you removed the APD side of it and just made it another cartel. "energy cartel" unlike the other cartels it wouldn't be influenced by player interaction but had a higher base amount per min. This cartel would be really good for later times when not alot of people are on and the cartels don't generate alot of money.

 

I would even be fine if it was just a turf "The power company is under your control use this influence on the Governor to pay no taxes for you and your gang while the turf is captured".

So far the only cop vs rebel event iv seen was pretty dope. The admins would spawn people on a island and give them time to set up, then the cops would all get swat gear and load up in black hawks at HQ then fly over to the island and lethal everyone who was not a cop on the island. Simple but super fun, was a good match up between cops with tac coms and random rebels. Would love to see more stuff like this.

This is intended... They don't want cartels generating absurd amounts of money for 8 hrs when there is likely no one to contest them... Thats the reason it was changed in the first place.
