Adding a money (or reward points) as a reward for successfully arresting suspects would undoubtedly extend the life of the mod as it will give the player a new goal to strive for as well as create a more immersive playing experience. It could put money in your pocket use the vending machine or the clerks in the 24/7 convenience stores. Maybe even buying cigarettes if that animation were to be unlocked later. On the other hand, career points could allow you to change your title from patrol man to lieutenant.

 

LSPDFR isn't meant to be a simulator style mod. It's just for basic purposes of policing.

The only chance of this happening is as a plugin mod.

A ranking system has been discussed numerous times before and i doubt we'll see it anytime soon because not something many people want. The mod is meant to be both fun with a bit of realism. there are people who play LSPDFR realistically. and there there is people who play it for the fun and randomness that can unfold (like me). having a ranking system will make it too realistic and ruin the fun. 

Might make more sense for this idea to have some sort of weekly pay system. Getting paid after every arrest would make me feel dirty lol

I suppose the lieutenant system would be a little much, but money however would be a fine edition to the program

I would like the ranking system. All they could do was make it an option. You either turn it on or not.

I agree its a cool idea, but should be made as a plugin. I think it should have more to do than just being able to buy food and use vending machines. There should be things such as having to get gas every so often, Or requiring the player to get food to keep health up, etc. Because not every lspdfr player uses this mod like its a simulator 

Can ped models except Michael, Franklin, Trevor, and the online ped even *have* money?

A web based ranking system such as the one for LCPDFR used would be a nice addition, taking into account arrests, number tickets and cash amount totals, number of chases and such.  The live wall was a nice too, but seemed like a challenge since it was always down with sorted issues.  

Just a thought!

Now that is something the community wants. Something that is site-wise only and not in game ranking would be great. the Crime Stats were a big part of LCPDFR so i don't see why it can't make a return with LSPDFR. 

 

I think you could take this idea and mold it into something fun as a mod or maybe LSPDFR itself. I find myself not sure what dept I want to patrol for or where I want to patrol and in the end I end up going to same old places. There's sections I've just never gone to and not sure why.

I would like a supervisor mod or feature that acts like a boss. I get into the game, select the dept I'm going to work for and then the supervisor tells me what area to patrol this game session and reasons why and what to focus on that shift.

Such as, 'Officer, I want you to patrol the docks today because we've been getting reports that drugs have been coming in through there. Pull over and question any shipping trucks you can when not on calls. I'd like to see at least ten truck pullovers.' Now I have a passive task when not actively answering radio calls.

Or, 'Deputy, I want you to focus on the Sandy Shores community today and be on the lookout for a Hippy Van that fled the scene of a police raid on a meth house last night.', so you do your usual thing but have a overall task for the entire shift such as pulling over any hippy van you come across.

I don't really care if there is some script to actually make one of those trucks carry drugs or for that one hippy van to have a drug dealer driving but it would be a nice touch and nothing on the map to reveal that this is the one to pull over. Just a believable scenario of why I should patrol a certain area and what to be looking out for. It's getting kinda boring to pull over speeders so looking for that rare hippy van or waiting for a truck to leave the port gates would add something.

The options are endless from patrol this area because of a drive by last night by a low rider to patrol that highway simply because complaints of speeders are flooding in.
