Rock Stars RPG 4.1 Scripts
Scripts by David Omid, objects by DHRmike
Everyone, I am pleased to announce the release of RS4.1 to the main server. For those of you that are still wondering why it has taken so long to produce these scripts, please read
this topic for the full story.
Before I announce the new features, I would just like to thank some people for helping me with this project as without them, release would not be now...
AcknowledgementsTo all of my testers, I would like to say a very big THANK YOU for everything you have done for me. You have shown great dedication to this community by spending your own time testing my work by your own free will. Without you guys, this script would either never be finished as I wouldn't know what to add, remove or change or it would be released with a lot of bugs and a good target for script abusers!
You have all stuck with me, despite many of the things you tested being scrapped as they were not good enough to be released. Thank you for not getting annoyed by that!
I thank ALL TESTERS, from the first few that I recruited to the recent ones that have just simply decided to come onto an open testing session and help out. Good job, guys!
To DHRmike, thank you for the new Los Santos Fire Department interior and exterior!
Command Updates/call 911 - now allows you to call the fire department. Firemen will see fire department calls and paramedic calls, paramedics will see paramedic calls and fire department calls, police will see all calls.
/r - now allows firemen to talk to other firemen and paramedics to talk to other paramedics, as well as cops being able to talk to other cops
/e - slight change. The messages will display in the colour of the unit. Example: cop messages in blue, medic messages in pink, fireman messages in dark red.
/m - can now be used in all emergency vehicles, not just law enforcement ones
/s1-3 - will now display special messages for firemen and medics. Works the same way as the police ones, except they say different things
/m1-3 - will now display special messages for firemen and medics. Works the same way as the police ones, except they say different things. Will now work in all emergency vehicles, not just law enforcement ones.
/cophelp - simple change. Will now tell the player to use /e to talk to other emergency services (they were not told before)
/jobfireman - simple change. Will now tell the player to use /r to talk to other firemen. Also, the player will be told the ARFD website address.
/jobmedic - simple change. Will now tell the player to use /r to talk to other medics.
/store, /load, /buyweapon, /giveweapon, /spawnreset - all restricted so they can not be used while in a mission.
/sethit - restricted so that hits can not be set on bots. Although there are currently no bots on the server, some might be added for future missions.
New CommandsThe following commands are for normal players. The new administration commands will be posted in the restricted sections of the forums.
/mission - allows you to join and leave missions when they are available to you. These will be explained soon.
/missioninfo - tells you everything you need to know about your available mission. Not sure what to do? Use this command and do what it tells you to do!
Mission SystemCurrently, only firemen have missions. However, more WILL be added for other jobs in future updates! The fireman missions will be explained shortly.
How will I know when a mission is available? You will be told on your chat screen that one is available, as well as the /mission and /missioninfo commands just in case you forget them and also a large message will appear in the bottom-right of your screen saying "mission available".
When do I need to use the commands? You need to use /mission to join the available mission. You can also use the command to leave the mission if you do not want to continue with it. The /missioninfo command only has to be used if you don't know what to do in a mission as it will tell you how to complete it. It is highly advised that you read it when you do a mission for the first time.
When I join a mission, what happens? When you join a mission, your weapons are stored and you are given special weapons for the mission. Example: in a fireman mission, you are given a shovel and a fire extinguisher with LOTS of ammunition. You are shown a red marker on your radar and map, telling you where to go. In the bottom-right of your screen, you are shown the following information:
A timer, displaying the amount of time you have left to complete the mission before it has been failed.
A counter showing you how many players are involved in the mission. You are told how many players the mission is available to and how many players are actually taking part.
A red message showing the name of a location. This location is where your mission objectives are. This location corresponds to the red marker on your radar and map.
When I exit a mission, what happens? Your mission weapons are removed and your stored pre-mission weapons are given back to you. All information which is displayed during your mission will no longer be shown to you and all you will see in the bottom-right of your screen is "mission available" again. You are able to re-join the mission with /mission if you want to.
What happens if the time runs out? You fail your mission. You are shown a large red message on your screen saying "mission failed", along with a chat message. The timer in the bottom-right of your screen turns red and you hear music. After 10 seconds, everything in the bottom-right of your screen disappears and the music stops playing.
What happens if all objectives are completed? You complete your mission. You are shown a large green message on your screen saying "mission success" and how much money you have earned during the mission, along with a chat message telling you both that the mission was a success and how much money you earned. You are given your money. The timer in the bottom-right of your screen turns green and you hear music. After 10 seconds, everything in the bottom-right of your screen disappears and the music stops playing.
What happens if a manager or developer stops a mission? The mission is aborted. You are shown a large yellow message on your screen saying "mission aborted", along with a chat message. The timer in the bottom-right of your screen turns yellow. You do not hear music. After 10 seconds, everything in the bottom-right of your screen disappears.
How much money can I earn? The amount of money you earn depends on how much effort you put into the mission. Example: in fireman missions, the amount of money you earn is based on how many objectives you help to complete.
How much time am I given? The amount of time you are given is based on a few factors. Example: in fireman missions, the amount of time you are given is based on the average distance between all firemen online and the mission location, the amount of firemen online and the number of fire sources.
Where will the mission be located? The mission location is picked at random from a list by the scripts, to the mission location is random, even if a manager or developer manually starts a mission.
When will missions start? Every 30 minutes, an automatic system should start a mission by itself. If it fails to do this, a manager or developer can start a mission manually.
What happens if I die? If you die while taking part in a mission, you will be ejected from the mission and your stored weapons will be returned to you. It is as if you have left the mission using /mission. You are free to re-join the mission with /mission if you wish to.
Fireman MissionsIn the fireman missions, your objectives are fire sources. To complete the mission, all fire sources have to be eliminated.
To eliminate a fire source, one or more firemen need to spray at it directly with their fire extinguishers until the "fire intensity" is reduced to 0/100. This "fire intensity" is displayed above each fire source.
To extinguish fire sources, you MUST use your handheld fire extinguisher. The fires are oil-based, so firetruck water will not help to extinguish them. Instead, you must smother the sources with foam.
The fire sources explode every few seconds. To stop the explosions, you need to be brave and get close to the source. When you are close to it, it can't explode as you are attacking it. The ONLY WAY of eliminating a fire source is to run straight in and attack it.
If you run away from a fire source and no firemen are near it, it is able to explode again. The fire intensity will jump back to 100/100 and you need to run back in and start again.
When missions start, players near the sources will see the fires start. They will be given a message telling them that they can see flames, smell gas and should leave the area and call the fire department. After a delay, the sources will become dangerous. They will start exploding, the fire will start spreading and the fire intensities will be shown.
When a mission starts, the firemen are not the only people told about the mission. The police and medics are told about the fire. They are also told the location, so police units and come to the situation and make sure nobody gets in the way. Also, medics can heal anyone who has been injured. Because firemen are running into a lot of fire and explosions, it is very likely that they will require medical assistance, so being a medic will make a lot of money now!
If you find a good location for a mission and no mission exists there, contact me and I'll add it! I can also edit already existing missions, so I can add new sources to the current missions too.
Other new featuresNew Los Santos Fire Department exterior, made by DHRmikeNew interior for all fire departments, made by DHRmikeNew vehicles might be added for the emergency services, such as more helicopters for firemen. This is not certain though and they will not be part of the RS4.1 update itself.
That's everything as far as I can remember. If you have noticed that I have missed something out, please tell me! If you have any questions or concerns, either post them here, on my Facebook, in the Facebook group or on my MSN as well as forum PM inbox. I would also like both positive and negative feedback as it helps me to understand what I have done right and/or wrong.
Have fun, everyone! I hope you enjoy my scripts and stay tuned for future updates!
