Upcoming changes to the licensing system

[Teddy]

Hello,

After some review I have decided to do away with the incremental cost based system for house licenses, business licenses, and vehicle licenses. The new licensing system will feature a static priced fee. In addition, you can no longer buy house or business licenses directly via script. You will need to make an appointment with a city clerk (new script supported RP role) who can issue the licenses for a fee.

The vehicle licenses will now be issued by driving schools and will cost a fee.

We believe this new system will encourage new routes of RP possibility as well as create new avenues for entrepreneurship.

This system will roll out over the next couple of days.

Will the staff handling the licenses be allowed to be corrupt (of course not just spam free licenses to everyone, but of course in a role-play sense) Selling them for cheaper prices and keeping some of the money in their own pocket (instead of it going to the company).

Yes, corruption would be a perfectly RP-able route.

Who will be city clerks? Will they have an official rank? Could this be the start of the government?

Thanks!

Yes, each city will have a new group that is already live in the server. There will be LosSantosGov, SanFierroGov, LasVenturas and will consist of 3 roles: mayor, tax collector, and city clerk as of now. The city mayor and tax collectors will be scripted at a later point, but the foundation of this script is already implemented.

Elections will be in October.

No. This new system will support legacy licenses.

No. This new system will support legacy licenses.

Actually I'm not getting you.

Legacy licenses meaning that however many licenses you have now will all transfer over transparently into the new system. However many licenses you hold now, will remain once the new system is live.

What's the price planned to be though?
EDIT: I guess the fact that there are divided into three main sections, doesn't mean that in order to buy a property in a specific section, you will need to get the license from the specific section. Right? Though it would prolly be nice.
EDIT: Just read the other topic, about applying... The 1mil for the campain, guess it will be "taken" as a fee after all? Coz, I bet, many can do without it.

You will keep all existing properties and licenses.
