[SA:MP] Developers Answer: Give Examples

[Gandalf]

Situation:
You are driving, normal and sunny day and you are heading to an important meeting. Out of a sudden, a person crashes into you. He highjacks your vehicle and explodes it. So, you're on foot now and go nowhere to go. Before you even get to do anything, that person start shooting at you. There are only one admin online at that time who are busy with other reports. You have shitloads of weapons on you, M4, Deagle, Shotgun, MP5, everything and you have even bought full armor. Examples of how to react:

- Shoot back and kill him.
- /Q to avoid loosing your equipment (abuse, I know)
- Stand still and pray for Sauron to hear you.
- Bunnyjump away so it'll be harder to kill you.

Remember, you were heading to an important meeting before you ran into him. What would you do?

1. Run away and /hail or /hurt, see if the person reacts on roleplay
2. If not, shoot him. If an admin freezes you, explain the situation.

Carsurfing and shooting at the same time is not allowed.

However, are pursuing cops allowed to get on top of a suspect's car and kick the car (or hit it with any other melee weapon, such as a golf club) until it explodes?

I know that shooting isn't allowed.. But melee weapons... My guess.. Don't count on it.

Although I am not allowed to respond here I'll do so anyways seeing as you haven't gotten an answer yet.
Yes, cops are allowed to order heroin on cop duty based on Argonath Rules.
Admins are not allowed to take actions against it, however higher ranked police officers can and the reason would be "Corrupt cop".

The only time they are not allowed to order heroin is if they use the /SU command or their duty gun, this is because it gives them an advantage over the other player(s).
That is not allowed based on Argonath Rules and admin punishments will be given.

Alright, thank you very much for your response.

If the cop is told to leave the area and he doesn't, he can't suspect a player for any reason such as "failure to comply" or if it comes to the point where the player is shoot the cop down, the cop can't suspect for "assault" or something, correct? Basically if a police officer orders heroin, he can't suspect anyone during this roleplay because he is roleplaying corrupt? Correct me if I am wrong.

idk if I am allowed to answer but I think that is allowed, evenwhile hes corrupt if it is not found out yet he can still use his "rights" to suspect someone if he really is doing the crime.

Like in the movies, a corrupt cop can still arrest someone but hes corrupt and doing drug deals and so on.

Sorry If I am not allowed to answer here.

Is it allowed to use the fast reload thingy of regular shotgun where you release the aim key after you shoot to make the reload faster?

I'm not sure if it's a game feature or a glitch. Clarifying it would save a lot of people.

No, cops are not allowed to suspect a player, and neither are they allowed to use their duty weapons to shoot players. There for trying to gain drugs while being a cop puts the cop at a clear disadvantage. He can not use weapons or commands, and can be suspeced from cop duty by superior officers.

Me and two other officers told suspect countless times to surrender by using /gu but he wouldnt cooperate so eventually I killed him nitestick. Admin later froze me and asked why I killed the suspect. I explained to him why and why I enforce suspects to use /gu as means of surrendering. He said it's not obligatory and when I asked how can admins enforce suspects not running away after doing /hail or saying they surrender, because there's no proof other than checking logs, he wouldn't explain it and just snap temp banned me for not listening to him. Is my temp ban justified? Where can i report admins? I couldn't find any forum section or links for such reports. Thank you.

Without knowing the exact time and date it is impossible to say if your tempban is justified, as it depends on your attitude and how you replied to the admin as wel. As for forcing /gu, that is not allowed because suspects are not allowed to run away ot attack after surrendering. How admins are going to enforce that depends usually on if they have the time to spectate situations.
Forcing the use of /gu and killing a suspect that surrenders but refuses to type the /gu command gan get you copbanned.

[Antonio.]

Why isn't it that suspects must /gu and /hail or something doesn't count as giving up? A lot of players will /hail and then run away or jump out the cop car, not even RPing. This just puts more work for the players and admins...
