Benjamin Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 What you want to see? - The option to pay money to respawn replaced with the option to make a report. Why should we add it? - There aren't many valid reasons for respawning when EMS is on unless the EMS online isn't responding and occasionally people will respawn when they have been RDMd. Both of these can be avoided by adding an option to make a sit rather than calling EMS. E.G, if you are RDMd or EMS isn't active then you can select the report option and staff can demote the EMS or deal with the sit. I am making this suggestion because i recently played EMS ( just as a probationary medic ) and when i compared the amount of code 4's due to death over the radio compared to the amount of EMS calls actually made, the ratio was pretty weak. I don't really see much downside to this as although people find waiting to respawn annoying, it means that EMS would have more calls, and RP situations would be carried out fully rather than a police chase taking place and to avoid getting arrested the perp just jumps out, pulls a gun, gets killed, and respawns. There is the rebottle that you can simply make a report on people who do respawn while EMS is active, but my argument is, why not just prevent respawns happening in the first place. What are the advantages of having this? - More value for life, More RP being carried out fully, More EMS calls, Less sits needing to take place about respawning. I don't really see any disadvantages, but i may be wrong. Who is it mainly for? - The server as a whole, players will have more value for life when EMS is on and they know they will be arrested still if they get shot. But specifically EMS and Police Links to any content - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[GL] Locus Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 -Support Once you call EMS you can call staff with /report or hitting the F# button to do it. They would need to redo the script most likely that we use for respawning when EMS is.

If they wanna waste money, let them. I personally just think the cost should be raised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicc Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 -Support You are able to make a sit after you hit call EMS. The staff member can verify if EMS is not actively taking calls and respawn you from there. Better off just removing the respawn function all together.

Benjamin Posted January 7, 2023 Author Share Posted January 7, 2023 @Nicc The premise is to remove the re spawn function when EMS is active, the replacement with making a sit is just an option for what can go in place of the respawn option. What I’m hoping for primarily with this suggestion is to remove the ability to respawn while EMS is online. Even since making this post I’ve seen sits for players respawning while EMS is on. Once the sit is made the player may be given an OOC punishment but as for the RP, it’s discontinued. The -supports I have seen so far are in response to technical issues in making this happen and are focussed on the staff sit option, but generally speaking it’s a matter of disallowing respawning while EMS is online..

Jimmy James Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Denied. The SMT team for this server has decided against adding this suggestion for performance reasons, the benefit to the server, or another unstated reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
