Introducing a character system

[Teddy]

Hola,

We have added the ability to define characters in-game. You can use /createcharacter [name], it costs $10,000. The characters are tied to roleplay events; if you have no character defined your name will be bound. Once you have a character you can use /usecharacter to switch to that character.  You can view a player's active character by using /character [id] (must be in a certain distance) You cannot switch characters once you have selected one. They are per session; relog to start a new session and /q'ing in the middle of something to avoid it is going to get your shit ass thrown out of here.

Properties, vehicles, skins, etc are tied to your USERNAME; while roleplay actions such as crime are tied to character.

This is apart of our anti-abuse system for multiple characters.

If enough people wish, we can add a setting to enable using your character name in local roleplay chats; rather than usename.

Kindly,
Teddy

commands
/createcharacter
/usecharacter

Damn! Awesome work, thank you Teddy.

The function to enable character names instead of the username would be just gorgeous.

Great work!

[Rusty]

Fucking brilliant, definitely should show selected character name in all of the local chats and /me/em actions either by enabling the option or forced on.

[Vaeldious]

Outstanding!  Now I wont have to spend so much on /changenames!

Is there any plans for this to be linked with "saved" or "stored" skins?

[Salmonella]

I actually suggested keeping the account name there and having a /character <ID> show the roleplay name to maintain the Argonath a e s t h e t i c

Would be interesting to have an optional function to also show the character name in local chats, like Rusty said, but I'm not sure if that would conflict with the mainchat name/name above head.. It makes more sense to me the way it is now.

Force character names to display in roleplay messages rather than a username in SAMP. That means /r, /e, /me, /em, /s, /l, /m etc...

Yes, that way we can have a "trololol69topkek" username and no one would know who is who. It's jsut RP. I like it.

How about phones?

EDIT: Also, can the money part be reconsidered...I'm a little bit short. I can't afford a character!

Interesting.

What about phones? Just buy a new burner phone number from the electronics store.

If properties (i.e. a physical asset) is Username specific, then is a phone?

same cost as registering a new name with city hall, as that is what you are doing.

We will never force this; we will consider if enough wish to make a setting. What I would be comfortable doing is adding text below the player's username with their character name.
