Title: Car Surfing
Post by: Kojak on January 17, 2012, 07:29:37 pm
Hi all

This post relates to "car surfing" which is standing on top of a moving vehicle.

Part 1: Engaging in combat while car surfing is prohibited. Car surfing itself is allowed, but you may not engage others in combat while doing it. The reason for this is it would allow the use of highly unrealistic and imbalanced weapons platforms that would be extremely difficult to counter.

Part 2: Police may not attempt to catch a suspect by car surfing on top of the suspect's vehicle. This means that not only are police not permitted to do damage to a suspect's vehicle while car surfing on it, but they also may not stay standing on the suspect's vehicle while the suspect is attempting to escape in it. The reason for this is because doing so gives the suspect no chance to escape.

Thank you.
Kojak

What about when a friend of you is in the back of a pick-up truck? Is that considered car surfing?

Yes. Allowed to travel that way, not allowed to fight that way.

Good post.

I have a question, will reports that contain police and carsurfing be of high priority?
Because a cop can blow up a car pretty fast when he's on it and the admins can not warn the cop if they didn't see it.
The question goes the other way aswell, if a criminal is on top of a cop car.

Reports about this will be handled in the same way as any other report.

If you report a player it will be treated just like every other report.

EDIT: I see Kojak beat me to it.

I guess it'll be handled as a normal report,but as far as I know if a cop is shooting your car while you're moving with the vehicle,the vehicle doesn't take damage when its moving,only when it doesnt move.
Thanks for the heads up Kojak.

EDIT - I see Kojak and Reece beat me to it. :D

PROTIP:

Add Fraps or any other recording software you use to the startup folder
and when push comes to shove you will be able to record it and send it to the admins/email

Moving vehicle does take damage if shot properly.

Haha I didn't say that line so good. What I meant is that the screenshot contained a player rulebreak, it's perfectly fine that you post it here.
