Hello all and MERRY CHRISTMAS! Here is a culmination of what we have been working on over the past 2 weeks!
Additions!
- Police now specify a reason for a vehicle impound, to easier track who seized / impounded a vehicle and why
- Added a weapon draw animation to the Viking and battle axes
- Added snow for the month of December
- Added effects when crashing your vehicle, depending on the severity. This includes motion blur, blackout effects and temporary disabling your vehicle
Introduction of the Web Panel!
- The web panel will be a means for players to access game functions from their web browser, or even phone at https://app.fatduckgaming.com/
- You will be prompted to set a password for your account when you log in, which is used to sign into the web panel
-
Right now, it is primarily used for new staff tools, however it will be where many in game / forums / discord functions end up
- Weazel News
- Business Panels (replacing discord / boss menu / google sheets)
- Ban appeals
- In and out of game reporting systems
- Account Management
- Car Sales (no more selling on twitter!)
- Property Viewing and sales
-
Much more!
-
The police also have this snazzy new MDT known as COPS (Core Operational Policing System)
- Allows cops to search for people, vehicles and see details, mugshots
- This allows the police to conduct more in depth RP, stepping away from constant shootouts.
- The idea is to encourage cops to conduct investigations, take notes / mugshots.
- It is available through both in game, and through the web browser panel
- It even logs in automatically through game
Changes / Tweaks!
-
Changed vehicle tow requests
- Requests are automatically deleted from mechanics when the vehicle is no longer within 25 meters of the call. This is to avoid going to a call and having no vehicle there
- Requests are cleared when towed by other mechanics, including from other companies!!!
- Requests which are older than 45 minutes are automatically cleared, and the vehicle automatically deleted (not impounded or seized, only deleted from the world)
- Drastically tweaked the off-road script to really punish cars going off-road
- Seized vehicles must be collected
- Adjusted the sensitivity of the speed radar
- Massively upgraded ban evasion detection and anticheat. Hopefully more secure than ever!
- Tapping X will cancel animations without putting hands up
- Entering the water while have hands cuffed (or in ragdoll) will no longer instantly kill you
- Tweaks to staffing systems to improve in game issues
- Bans / warns / timeouts are no longer globally announced to the server
Bug Fixes!
- Fixed the changes to the off-road script which made cars not reset when driving on road
- Fixed COPS being accessible on civilian characters
- Fixed ejection off motorbikes
- Fixed the interaction circle (center white circle for the E menu) getting stuck on your screen
- Fixed doors periodically not locking
- Fixed ATMs not showing the display, and taking a long time to trigger the 3D text
- Fixed heaps more things that I am too lazy to write!
