Title: Ability to give yourself up to the police
Post by: VazZ on 01 04, 2014, 10:38:59 pm: It happened again that I had a high WL and respawned in SF and no cop was even close.

I ended up waiting almost 30 minutes to lose all my stars which was just plain annoying. I can only get rid of 1 star using /fine..

Pic: In the middle of nowhere, unable to recover a vehicle, unable to use my jetpack, unable to travel using RT, just stuck in the nowhere with a high WL

So I suggest that you can do something ingame which you can do IRL: Give yourself up to the police. In real life, when you do this, you just go to the next police department or cop and report yourself and get arrested and face your fate. Ingame this should be do-able by a command because calling cops to you will often result in noone coming because cops think you will just kill them or you're trolling or it's not worth coming all the way.

So by doing /giveup or something similar, the most nearby cop would get the arrest and you would go to jail... And unlike when you reconnect it will only check for cops in a smaller radius to determine whether you should get "player quit"-arrested or not, in this case it will use a much larger radius and just use the nearest cop.

Additionally, because this is a method of getting rid of your stars, you would have to pay extra, something like 1000$ (or whatever) per star, so if you give up to the police with 15 stars, you would pay $15000 and then go to jail regularly, the nearest cop will get the arrest.

1) This would only work when no cop is close to you so people can NOT do this while cops are after them to prevent trolling
2) This would only work a max. of 3 times per 24 hours so people don't always use it

But, you could easily suicide or reconnect if I'm right.

And who will take your arrest points? No one?
From this point of view it's abbusable as well.
My bad, I didn't saw what you said there.
Sorry, but I downvoted because it's not needed..

Reconnect only works if a cop is near you.

It sometimes doesn't work, maybe you're in LV desert? Some-where else far from LS..
What about improving /surrender so it can let criminals give up to cops.

No. If you /kill it will take 30 seconds and you will just respawn at the hospital and there will still not be a cop in most hospitals for a long time usually.

I said reconnecting also only helps if a cop is nearby.

No. I said that when you call a cop they usually don't come. Even at a higher WL.

Post by: United on 02 04, 2014, 12:20:38 am: I kinda like this suggestion.
But maybe the only thing that will make me down vote this suggestion is the command.

I think it would be more nice if the criminal has to go by himself to any Police Department, because simply in real life you can't go in the jail with commend ::)

Anyways I'm neutral about this suggestion for the thing stated above.

adding to this^
I'll upvote it if that's how it will be; in order to turn yourself in, you must get inside the police department's/sheriff's office's interior and go into a marker and that will take you directly to jail and maybe adding a 15% time off would be good, since you turned yourself in and you weren't chased or anything, just like real life I guess?
but having commands will turn it into an abuse-able script, however I'm neutral for now.

Post by: jpleite on 02 04, 2014, 01:00:32 am: I think a good idea to be moer realistic would be to make it so you have to drive to any police station and go in it . As soon as you get in there wanted you would be automaticly arrested.
Title: Re: Ability to give yourself up to the police
Post by: Carrefour on 02 04, 2014, 01:07:53 am: Okay some questions.
- The cop will get everything frol the arrest like the arrest points, arrest, money?
- I would like to remove the part of getting money from giving up, some cops will just stand at the police station, while criminals enter there because they give up. (Like United said)
- You were standing in SF near the beach. Beach->water. You could have done easily suicide and not get teleported back.
Upvoted anyways

The one closest to you.

Post by: Ally on 02 04, 2014, 03:42:29 am: I think /surrender command can be improved in such a way that if a criminal do /surrender before arresting or while he is not arrested, he will go to jail and arrest and money will go to closest cop anywhere in SA.

yea I guess we can use current /surrender cmd so there is no need to make a new cmd for it as we already have it

That is unable to give yourself to police if you are recently damaged.

Also you can jump from height to kill yourself and I guess you will be teleported to jail isn't ?

1. Good point though I think I already covered this when I said "You can't do this when cops are after you" which kinda means that when you are being shot by cops or when they are close to you it means they are after you.

2. No, if you kill yourself in water or by jumping it's suicide jail, and like "player quit" this will be "suicide arrest" and only when a cop is in a close radius you'll get jailed
