Whats the suggestion?
Adding ability to Enter houses while using a keybind, for example E - Enter.
Adding a more updated UI for displaying house information.
Now, currently we have:
- Property Owner
- Renter of the Property
- Name of the Property
What are the bad things for the system we currently have in use?
- Displaying property owner could be abused?
Yes, current system is lacking that, RP wise it should be hidden who owns the property. This is unrealistic for RP side since people can see property owner without even asking anyone.
Also undercover Government employees can be exposed if players know where they own a property and just go check the property owner. (They can find out if there is a UC Law enforcer)
So less RP, you get tons of information by just looking at dots. This reduces Player to Player Interactions.
For example in RP. People would ask who owns the property and such.
Required Modifications
If there is a lock system it should display if the property is Locked or not.
Keybind for "E" /enter or /exit
Also there should be a small text saying on the property text stating: Press "E" to enter/exit. - Same goes for exiting.
/enter and /exit should remain till everyone gets used to entering/exiting.
When someone is entering they would get, frozen and 5 Second cool down (And a message in chat for entering/leaving property), Also if they get hurt while entering/leaving their command for enter would cancel (Stops the abuse from evading damage by exiting the interior).
If someone gets damaged 4 times in 5 minutes on entering the property they would get a cool down of 10 minutes on entering any property. Reason for is so "someone is entering" would not be spammed/abused.
Modifying the property information to be viewed by only specific Rank Groups. Such as Noose, LCPD , FBI, Court Workers.
Also when someone is entering/leaving it should be displayed in the chat for example if someone enters a interior inside it would say, "Someone is entering".
There should be a god mode, for 1,5 seconds on entering the interior so they won't be interior camped.
If player is invited/renting they can see the owner of the property.
Also adding a command for property owners to hide or show their property info. It could be used in case that you need to show to a free cop who owns a property, or in case of Selling. Maybe /property public/private
So what should be displayed for someone when they step on the property?
Owner of properties should be hidden for normal players so:
Normal player would see this:
"Name of the property"
Status: Open
Property Owner: Unknown
or:
Status: Closed
For sale!
or:
Status: Open
Property Owner: State
Players that have view permissions:
"Name of the property"
Status: Open
Property Owner: Danny Soulson
If a player is added to invited members, they get view permission as well.
Could it be abused?
Maybe if a suspect leaves the property right away when he sees someone is entering. Though it could be fixed if Law enforcers have "ability" to sneak into a property. Or maybe blocking that when someone is entering/leaving you cant just go by them, so one by one enters/leaves which could be more realistic way of entering/leaving.
Regarding the lock part, not my idea though if it was implemented it should be in the house display
What are the benefits?
It would increase the RP and player to player interaction by asking information about who owns the house.
People wouldn't be able to find out who is UC, by checking the property owner.
If someone sues someone for having something not valid with laws. A Court member could "RP" Going there and checking who is the owner of the property, by contacting the Law enforcement. (Court members shouldn't have permission for seeing who is the owner of the property as it still can be abused that they can check who is UC).
Removing chances of exiting the building while being shot at.

This would make things a little complex, mainly for the newer players.
It's good but I'm not sure.
It's same as it is right now, it just modifies the /enter so it can't be abused, also its easier to use a key bind then just typing /enter /exit every time.
Also property owner shouldn't be for display, even for new players it doesn't matter it wont ruin their game play.
Regarding the property privacy option /property private/public. If a new player already got a house i don't think it will make his life any harder tbh. We might be getting a UI for house anyways so having a enter key bind would be nice.
U can install an autotyper , that types u "/enter + enter" when u press a key :rofl:

The idea is not only based on the key bind, though having additional software just to enter a building is stupid. This kind of privilege should be for everyone. Not people that have key bind software :eek:
Main priority of the idea is to have less commands and that people actually use their input devices to do certain actions entering/leaving instead of having typing commands all the time. Similar to the clothing shop. Its so easier and better now, it should be same.
