Upcoming Drug Script changes

[Zaila]

Several changes in the drug script is gonna make it on the server within the next couple of days after we have tweaked some numbers.

Bug fixes
*You will now be able to harvest weed and collect heroin, even if the spots has changed before the weed plant has grown up or the ordered heroin has been delivered.
*Ordering heroin is now working the same as growing weed. The heroin script is not depending on the player being online anymore.

Options when growing weed or ordering heroin
The 3 different options are gone. This has been done for several reasons, the biggest one is the drug market. It was really hard to balance the drug market with all the options which is why we have decided to get rid of the options. However, you still need seeds to grow weed, but it is now called just seeds.

But what happends with my current seeds then?
Small Seeds are now called just seeds and is the seed used to growing weed. You can convert your medium and big seeds by using /convertseeds ingame after these changes are in place. If you have no normal seeds but 10 medium seeds and 10 big seeds, the medium and big seeds will convert to seeds and you will have 20 seeds. Nothing will be lost and you will never be able to buy medium and big seeds anymore.

Purchasing seeds
You are not purchasing seeds through businesses anymore. Instead, you purchase seeds at drug markets with /buyseeds. Each seed cost $70. We will make up to the business owners and add new types of items to be purchaseable in businesses, such as health regenative items. This is however work for the future.

Market Changes
We are going back to our original plan, which was allowing only official criminal group leaders to be able to sell to the drug market.

The different prices for different groups will be removed for now, but might be brought back in the future when we got more official criminal groups.

The Drug Market prices has been tweaked with these new changes, however nothing is set in stone yet. I will collect feedback from a few community members which has been actively trying to help us to improve the drug script.

Leaders might not always be available... What if grouplevel higher than 97/98 is considered as leader ?

[CharlieKasper]

@Stivi group leaders can set which rank sell to market.

[Miller786]

Growing drugs is boring as hell, by the way, is growing weed still legal in Rs5?

[Karmps.]

How much can I harvest with a regular ''seed''?

[Zaila]

There has been some more changes made.

Lowest amount of drugs you can sell to the market has been lowered to 1k. This might change in the future.

I have gone back partially on that official group leaders only should be able to sell drugs to the market. As of now, group leaders of recognized groups will be able to do so aswell. If we have enough official groups that is active in the future, this might be changed back.

All these changes will be deployed on the server later this evening.

Normal groups are now ripped off!

[Stivi]

Normal groups are now ripped off!

No, they should be more motivated now.

EDIT: Will the drug market prices change ?

[.Mario.]

No, they should be more motivated now.

Not really.

[Stivi]

Not really.

Yes really.

By giving them a "disadvantage" they should look on themselves and try to be better as well as get recognized/official.

[Zaila]

These changes are live now.

Not really.

Yes really. The drug market is not here to completly kill the player to player dealing which is why we have done it like this. If we would let every criminal group leader getting access to it, then people would just team up in getting a "group" and telling us they have 5 members, create a new topic and just wait 2 weeks and then get a manager to create their group, then "close" it and keep the access so they themself can sell to the drug market.

The price really sucks, considering everyone bought at a higher price when they had the chance.

Prices should change at every script restart.

[Stivi]

Prices should change at every script restart.

Yes, but $8/g or $5/g is too low.
