I've been working on an Iban edit for a while now and I'm getting to a somewhat late-stage in development so I figured it'd be a good time to spark up a topic featuring some of my ideas so that people can steal them and make their own version before I'm finished with mine
Really I'm trying to put more of an emphasis on things to do, stuff to buy that isn't guns, stuff to see, and roleplay, because we all know the current formula of get cash > get lot > get guns > freekill is kinda boring as hell. I'm working on a relatively large map but I'm also trying to not stuff on the brick count, I'm currently at about 50,000 bricks which is probably too much lol
Some stuff I've changed so far
- there's a cash penalty for starving to death
- ores like gold are more valuable than ores like dirt now
- scrapped reincarnation and instead just opted to let people level up their education a lot
- instead of buying "outfits" you can buy individual colors for your shirt and pants and shoes, and even decals and faces. they're pretty expensive, so selling clothes is actually a decent way to make cash
- instead of having a million random jobs with crap like "aoki's cosplayer" and "thrice born" you have a couple classes, like laborer, hunter, criminal, cop, ect with 6 "levels" in each category
- guns are pretty damn expensive and the seller will earn 10% of the price it sells for
- the baton and taser wont do anything to anyone who isn't wanted. makes arresting people a bit easier without having to spam "paying" in the chat whenever some dumbforget with a hammer decides to get in the way of your baton. however you do get fined for smacking everyone with a baton trying to check them for drugs
- there's a new vehicle spawn system, you have to pay money to set a vehicle to a spawn brick, and a smaller percentage of that price to respawn it
- there's a "stock" system for selling items, you purchase a stock brick and keep it filled with stock in order to sell items from it
- you can do a bunch of stuff around the map like picking flowers, mowing lawns, hunting skeletons and dinosaurs and stuff, collecting garbage and picking trash up off the street
- you can rob the bank
- you can escape from prison
pics:
large wilderness area north of the city, lots of trees here and wild mushrooms and berries that allow you to live off the land a little. you can come out here if you maybe want to retreat or maybe hide from the cops a while in the woods
big desert south of the mountain. not much to see here unless you're a miner, you'll find the most ore deposits in this area
scary dark forest full of bad guys south of the mountain. kill these dudes for some cash
small town to the east of the city in the plains. nice place for lumberjacks because there's lots of trees
you can go camping in the plains if you feel like hunting dinosaurs and such
The big main city, I suspect most of the stores will end up here
Anyways I've still got a lot of ideas im working on and I still need to iron out the more complicated details of getting a working dedicated server that doesn't run like garbage on my bad internet, but if you have any questions or comments or suggestions feel free to leave them down below
What I really need at the moment is some animal bots, like dear and stuff like that which will make hunting a bit cooler. I also need a garbage truck lmao, currently you have to put trash bags in a modified kamekaze truck which I can sorta get away with but it doesnt really make any sense
