Extra Details
Abandoned Jet mission
This mission will spawn in one of a few places around the Airfield
The jet will spawn in with a random set damage (white to Red hull), and low fuel
Depending on the Jet, Some types of armament will be disabled and/ or reduced
Please be aware, the ammo truck spot in the water may be affected. (Deletes objects within 'X' of mission spawn)
Work in progress ||||| Notify us of any issues, bugs or suggestions |||||
Loyalty System
Pretty much straight forward, the longer you play on our server, the more free monies you get
Every thirty minutes you will receive 'x' sum of cash
Hide Body script
Based from This Poll we have decided to add in the script enabling peeps the ability to hide bodies
To activate, look at the corpse and a option will come up in the scroll menu
On activation, you pay a fee of $5000, and are locked for X amount of time (same as placing a beacon)
After the progress bar reaches 100%, the body, and any objects laying around it (excluding cases, food and water) will be deleted within a 1 meter radius
Work in progress ||||| Notify us of any issues, bugs or suggestions |||||
Clean up store system
Any dropped objects (excluding cases/ food/ water) will be deleted within a 3 meter radius of a shop keep after remaining on the ground over 10 minutes
Secret Function
Yeah wouldn't you like to know
Once enough people know what the function is, and what parameters are required to activate it, I will either change or remove the function entirely
Work in progress
Special Skins
This idea is thanks to a quick discussion with @Dak Commstar
Basically, some of the skins we created were for particular vehicles only, and if we wanted to include them all, the client download per update would be enormous
To counter this, every update we will endeavour to add 1 or two skins for select vehicles and delete the previous selection
Tile Skins
What we mean by this is the colours/ hello kitty/ everything else currently available to plaster on any vehicle you choose either via purchase or donator button
We have noticed that some of these tile skins never get used, so we will be looking at modifying the selection every once in a while
If you are a donator and would like to recommend a tile texture for us to potentially add into the game, Please notify one of our staff. If you have created one yourself, the file must be 512 x 512)
