Matt147 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) When I was new to PoliceRP, it took me over 24hours of playtime to make even $100,000 of my own money, any money I received was from generous donations from other players. Due to this, I am deciding to make a guide to help new players or returning players making money. Printers Printers are most possibly the simplest way to make money, but also an illegal option. Due to the simplicity of printers, I will not be making an in-depth guide as to how to use them, however I will in the future attach a Google Sheets document on how much each printer earns, how much it costs to upkeep and the general guide to how these printers work, keep an eye on this thread to see when I make that guide. Until then, go to F4, entities, and buy a printer from there, it's that simple. Weed Weed is the second illegal option for making money, and is almost as simple to use as printers. To make money from weed, you simply buy a pot, then a seed, and then put the seed in the pot. After 4 minutes, you then press E on the weed plant (it will be green) and you get $7,500. A pot costs $500, and is a one time cost, you do not need to buy a new one every time you plant a new set of weed. A seed costs $250 and is a recurring cost, needed every time you start growing a new plant. This means on your first plant, you earn a profit of $6,750, and for any further plants in the same pot, you earn a profit of $7,250. You can own 5 pots at once, meaning you can earn about $36,250 per 4 minutes when you are running your weed at peak. If you're used weed as a way to make money to use for more efficient money earning methods, it will take you 112 minutes to earn your first million from weed, which is far from ideal, but isn't the end of the world. Bitcoin Bitcoin is definitely the most complicated method, but from my experience the most lucrative, earning you up to $48,000 per minute when running most efficiently. However, with this high income per minute also comes a high setup fee, so don't sign up to do Bitcoin unless you can afford $1,614,000 of startup value. To earn back it would take about 30 minutes. Now let's get into how to actually earn that money. BITCOIN IS THE ONLY LEGAL METHOD OUT OF ALL OF THESE. The way you set the Bitcoin up is up to you, but these entities are needed and they are required to be linked. Let's get into it. Firstly, you'll want to buy three fuel tanks, and line them up to each other, you'll then want to line up some generators, with the orange nozzle on the fuel tank pointing towards the generator, and the power plugs pointing away from the fuel tanks. The final part for initial setup is to put three bitcoin racks in a line, with the empty side pointing away from the generators. You now need to link everything up, to do this, buy a fuel line, and link it from a fuel tank to a generator. Repeat this two times, and all your generators are now linked to the fuel. At this point, you'll want to fill the fuel tanks with fuel. I recommend you buy large fuel, you'll need 5 of each to fill each tank. Buy the fuel and put them in the tank. You'll know if the tank is linked to the generator if you see fuel going into the generator on the GUI above the generator. Finally, repeat that process, but buy power leads and connect them to a generator and a bitcoin rack, repeat two more times. You are now onto the final, expensive stage of the process. You will want to buy a bitcoin server from the F4 menu, pick it up, and put it in the bitcoin rack. Repeat this 7 more times, and do this for every rack. You will know you're set up when the bitcoin racks look full. Now you are ready to start bitmining! Simply press E on the bitcoin rack, and type in the command 'mining start'. If you want to see how much money is in your rack, type 'bitcoin info', and to sell your bitcoin, type 'bitcoin sell'. To see a list of full commands, simply type 'help'. You have now started your bitcoin mining business, and the only step left is upkeep, every now and then you will have to fill your fuel tanks with new fuel, you use up about 1000 fuel per 200 seconds if you are running each fuel tank at maximum efficiency, the cost of fuel will be high but will be made up for with your profits. At some times in the future I will attach below a sheet on more in-depth guides to how this money is earned. Thank you for reading this guide! If you have any suggestions, requests, or room for improvement, please let me know, and have fun playing the server!

[GL] Protec Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Printers are by far the fastest as you can earn about 16mil/hr if you pay for custom large printers and only farm during the nightly cash surge event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt147 Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) Whilst printers can be good (and I'm working on something to show how much money they can make per hour) from my research printers require a little more babysitting, if you really want good printers you have to donate, and require you to farm at night for properly good benefits.

Alex Raddish Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 bitcoin is superior to printers for the simple fact that they're legal. if your base is raided by gov they cannot destroy your bitminers, however they can destroy your printers. Bitcoin costs more, but the profit is more steady and sustainable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[GL] Protec Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Gov never raids during cash surge as there are very few players on at that time. Printers are extremely safe during cash surge. You’d make so much money that you could be raided half an hour into printing and still be up over 6 mill during cash surge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackyman21 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) I make 10mil on weekend nights when I sell my printers before going to bed. Printer during cash surge is best Also, buy weed pots for 1k and then have a farm of 50. Really, really easy Edited October 8, 2020 by jackyman21 Former: Dispatch Director | PD MAJ | SCU CPT | FBI SAIC/HRT/DEA | SCO19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt147 Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share Posted October 8, 2020 Never knew you could buy entities off of other players, interesting, however, another advantage to bitcoin is you can go AFK and earn some money, whilst the fuel will run out at least it won't explode. If you go AFK with printers, you either turn 'em off or watch them blow up. A lot of players also can't play during cash surge, so I decided to make this money guide under the assumption you were playing not during surge.

I had a 100 printer farm once (cant be done during peak hours or itll lag EVERYTHING) and had about 100 weed pots with 3 people managing them alongside myself. It made about 25 mil an hour as it was mostly smaller printers but still useful.
