Minor Update 1.5.2
Good morning gang!! Not much filler to add to this one, just that we're working on some stuff... As you may have seen in #snippets, the prison overhaul is full steam ahead - the more specific details haven't been fully ironed out yet, but we're looking at effectively capping prison time to 4 hours/240 minutes (down from 15 hours/900 minutes) and bringing sentences up to be measured in hours and days. The way this will work is as follows:
- You are arrested
- You get prisoned for 72 hours for kidnapping, with parole available after 90 minutes
- You must stay in-game and in prison for 90 minutes, then you are eligible to do /paroleme
- You will be released, but if you do /time you will see that you are still serving your sentence for the full 72 hours
- You must remain on good behaviour for the whole 72 hours - if you die, you will respawn in prison. If you are arrested, you will go back to prison
- DCR parole officers will be watching you as well for these 72 hours - if you commit a crime, you will go back to prison
- If you are remanded back into prison for violating parole, you will lose the ability to /paroleme again, meaning you need to negotiate a second parole term with DCR staff. They may say no and force you to serve the entire sentence depending on what caused you to be remanded back in custody again
- You do not have to use /paroleme or /releaseme when your time is up - you can stay in prison indefinitely
The other major update on the horizon is the long-awaited graffiti script. Yes, it has taken ages, that's my fault entirely. I did the backend part of it and lost all my ideas on how to do the player-facing side of it, so @java took that on and the snippet he shared in the staff chat already looks amazing.
These are the fonts available to use for graffiti:
If you want to see any more, feel free to send me links to the fonts!
And on the UCP, we've now enabled chatlog sharing:
You can choose to share with every admin, or a specific admin by using @username (e.g. @ImperiumXVII)
