Version 2.1.1Don't forget to check out the changelog for the current main version,
2.1 .
WEEKLY CHALLENGE- A new 'Weekly Challenge' has been added.
- At the start of a game week (Monday), a challenge will be set.
- The challenges are based on player stats, for example to swim the furthest, get the most arrests, make the most money etc.
- Some challenges are related to specific jobs, or crime. This will encourage players to switch things up.
- Prizes range from $10,000 to $25,000 (random).
- The winner wil be announced just before the city changes on Sunday.
- Cash prizes will be awarded to the winner regardless of whether or not they are online (however score will only be awarded if the winner is online at city change).
- Use /weeklychallenge (/wc) to check your stat and rank.
NEW CASH DASH- A new 'Cash Dash' challenge called 'Scrapyard Challenge' has been added to the LS Scapyard.
ALSO NEW- Players can now disable the new 2.1 player info labels ('/set player_labels').
- I am considering adding options to fine-tune exactly what you can see, if that's what people want.
- Player labels now show a player's donator status.
- Cops (rank 6 or higher) can now spawn a Predator boat from the /jv menu.
- Added skin-specific cop freeze/surrounded/arrest/follow dialogue for female cops.
- Police station roofs/helipads are now all restricted areas (trespass crime).
- Added option to lock/unlock vehicle doors in the vehicle control menu (press Y in a vehicle).
- Added command /(un)stuck if a player is stuck somewhere they can be teleported to safety.
- There is a $5,000 fee and time limit. Ideally, contact staff first.
- All players now have a secondary account ID, known as a GUID. This is just as unique as your account ID, however it can be changed to protect your privacy if needed.
- You should only share your GUID with others (e.g. for proxy donations) and never your primary account ID. Both can be viewed in /accountid (/aid).
- Player threat status is no longer shown in info labels to non-cops.
- Reduced accuracy and fire rate of Area 69 tower guards.
- When a cop /frisks a player, items that can be confiscated are now highlighted red.
- Bonus vehicle chat messages reduced in quantity.
- When placing a spike strip, there is now an on-screen instruction text.
- The color a cop's name/blip flashes when requesting backup is now blue/white instead of blue/red, to avoid confusion with most wanted (red).
- The distance from which the new 2.1 player info labels are visible has been halved (and a very short distance in interiors).
- Bonus vehicle second clue is now shown 10 mins before the end of the event instead of 5.
- This is because 5 minutes is simply not enough time to find it and then drive it all the way back to the active city.
- The keys to place or cancel placing a spike strip are now Crouch and Punch/Fire respectively.
- Added a cooldown to spawning trucks at trucking checkpoints.
- The 'Use of Explosives' crime now only occurs if another player is nearby (100m).
- The Rustler is now available for civilians to use. Abuse of the weapons will result in punishment.
- 'Turning yourself in' (to jail) will now result in less jail time.
- There is now a small fee to request personal/job vehicle to be delivered to you.
- Scrapyard button is now Y instead of 2, to prevent conflict with mission starting key.
- XP boosts for medic/fire job events.
- Possible server hang/freeze fix.
- Fixed player location showing as '0m (right beside you)' in /info (/i).
- Fixed cop spike strip placement preview not showing.
- Fixed chat error spam when using /bribeall (/bra).
- Players will no longer be accused of the 'Use of Explosives' crime for Teargas.
- Player info labels now update on level/job/rank change.
- Fixed trespass crime (manager's office) being committed by players in the bank tutorial.
- Fixed command list search categories being listed incorrectly.
- Fixed players being stuck at payphones after using the wanted level removal option.
- Fixed players requesting backup (/bk) as a cop, then going off duty, still being in a state of 'needing backup' for 60 seconds.
- Fixed /rbk listing oneself.
- Fixed /trucking and /fishing not displaying help topics correctly.
- Payphone 'officer down' option for cops now has a limit like the regular 'request backup' option.
- Fixed ATM robbery being a threat crime (it's theft, not robbery).
- Fixed custom property names potentially being cut off (truncated) as a result of the use of color codes (donator feature).
- Fixed '/gps warehouse' listing your houses.
- Fixed players able to /ignore themselves.
- Fixed /myperf not working (says unauthorised). /perf (staff version) will also now redirect to /myperf.
- Fixed an issue with unwearing clothing not saving to database correctly.
- Fixed /backup spamming yellow help messages to the user.
- Fixed bounties expiring too soon.
