  5. + Support Through these changes, events can become a much more impactful aspect of the server, leading to enjoyment for both Government and Criminal sides. Events solely surrounded by the premise of prizes are antiquated. If every event, someone is expecting to win something out of it, it is no longer an event and rather a jeopardy to see who can perform greater. Although, these types can be beneficial at times, I believe it would be better to shorten the amount of these attributes within events to come. With a greater variety and set of tools, the Event Team can exhibit remarkable roleplay and gameplay driven events, and will also further the interest of passive roleplay events, which can greatly improve the integrity of the server's roleplay.

  9. You still fail to understand that if someone already creates shit events will only create more shit events only this time with a NPC tool. You also fail to understand that no amount of "training" will stop people from fucking something up and causing crashes which has probably been a problem in the past and why the tool is restricted in the first place. When you fix the issue of people obviously not being good at making events in the first place then you should worry about having the NPC added lol.

  10. -Support This speaks more to people hosting bad events, and allowing them to use the NPC tool isn't going to change that. Additionally just because you know how a NPC tool works and throw in some buzzwords in a forum post doesn't mean you know how gmod servers perform under stress.

  11. What you want to see? - A refocusing of the Event team. Currently the Event team is a glorified minigame and giveaway service. The staff team has been relying on these spontaneous, non rp focused events that provide a low cash prize and xp incentive for players to populate the server. Now, we are seeing a widespread lack of interest from long term players (players who have been on the server for some time) to attend events that are hosted by the team. Most of the time, events are announced and maybe 3 people will join the server to attend the event. The only exception to this is when SMT themself hosts an event that is extremely rare or provides a store item for free to the winner. —---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Purpose: The Event Team exists so that it can aid in attracting players to join the server throughout the week and encourage continued activity amongst long term players. The current system has been dragged out and the Team is no longer really providing much attraction for players to join and for players to stick around. If the Team is failing to meet its purpose effectively, then something needs to be changed within the team so that it can continue to bring server activity up and keep it up. —---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What needs to be changed: I have personally reached out to the following factions and their leadership teams and received feedback on what they want to see changed within the event team: SWAT, UMC, BOS, and SL. The following are things they have brought forward and things that I strongly believe would help the event team achieve those changes. Current events are run excessively and are starting to make players lose interest in them. Minigame and giveaway events when provided as excessively as they are now, make players lose interest in attending events entirely. There needs to be a decrease in the amount of these minigames and giveaways are run in order to build more interest around them. I would recommend restricting the number of these minigames & giveaways to just 1 or 2 a day. More RP oriented events. Especially a change from events where players are teleported, given weapons and fight Currently the Event team is not fully equipped to provide this effectively. This will be discussed in a later section of what should be added to the team so that they can effectively provide more rp events. Additionally, there should be an effort within the team to encourage its members to provide rp oriented events. The team would benefit greatly from an internal award handed out weekly to whoever hosts the greatest rp event each week. The prize could be cash or xp or both. [Call it ETM of the Week or something] Events that specifically target / utilize Government Departments and Criminal Organizations A large reason as to why criminal families are so rarely provided events is because in order to any events that utilize a family, you must obtain SMT permission before doing so. This restriction slows down any event planning and could potentially delay events from being run. This should be changed so that Event Team Seniors+ may run and give permission for events that utilize events. The only times where an event should be required to have SMT approval is an event that will giveaway or circulate more than 3 million to its participants or event jobs. The amounts of money that people can be reimbursed for should be detailed at each rank within the team. There is little to no guidance through any documentation on how much can actually be given away at each rank and because of this, many people higher up in the team freely giveaway cash prizes at different rates. A way for players to provide feedback post-event so that their criticism can be improved upon for future events After each event, it should be required for the host to advert for people to put in ooc a rating from 1 - 10 on how they enjoyed the event. These should all be screenshotted and submitted with the event log submission. Alternatively, you could give Event team the ability to use the vote command in game to collect responses on the event easily. —---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What permissions / tools need to be added to the team: Permission and Access to utilize NPCs: The event team will benefit greatly if it could utilize NPC’s to balance rp portions of events with light combat to consistently keep players engaged. The amount of creative freedom you have when you have access to npcs is enormous and not having access to this greatly restricts what you can do. This is a heavy permission because it can potentially cause lag / crash the server. The only way to do so, is if the ET members are not properly trained. With this permission, there should be proper training and documentation established so that NPC usage is not abused and is used properly so that player enjoyment is emphasized. Currently NONE of these are documented as any guidelines for npc usage : Health, weapons, spawn flags, density and spawner tool usage guidelines All of these things would need to be documented and trained. Also all of which should already be standardized even if the people at the top can use them. Set Health and Set Armor: The regular event team member does not have the ability to set health or armor. You MUST join the staff team and become a moderator as well in order to utilize these commands. This should be adjusted so that the event team can work independently from the staff team. It is technically already structured to be a system that operates independently from the staff team, limiting this command entirely cuts off the people within the team who only are interested in providing entertainment to the server. —---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why should we add it? - These additions to the team would allow the event team to provide a greater variety of events. By having these changes and additions, the event team will have a stronger impact in the servers vitality, activity and economy. —---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What are the advantages of having this? - The event team will be able to do the following more efficiently: Passive RP events Gov Department focused events Criminal faction / family / organization focused events RP events that don't rely on cash/xp incentive alone to boost player population —---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Who is it mainly for? - The Event team and the Police RP server as a whole —---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Links to any content - None! All things are already within the server and require just internal rework of the current system.

  12. The current npc tool on the server (there is only one) is the chromium npc spawner. It is probably the most safe spawner you can use because it limits the amount of npcs that can be spawned in at one time. Meaning you can set guidelines on spawning with the tool that would prevent people from spawning too many npcs. Additionally, just because you make it to Lead Admin, does NOT mean you understand how gmod servers perform under stress with npcs and SENTs. The only way you truly build this ability to understand performance, is by being trained and constantly running events that cause strain onto the server. Proper training with the tool and netgraph 3 eliminates a lot of problems with npc overuse. Also, the chromium tool can be set to delete all npcs upon undo, which is another failsafe built into the tool itself for spawning. Spawning npcs can be abused, but it can very easily be prevented from being used in the wrong way
