Time and time again we see people suggest legal jobs. The development of v3 is on-going and I understand that there will be more civilian focused features in v3, but v2 is becoming extremely repetitive. There are constant kidnappings and bank robberies, simply because there is no other way to earn money. If there were to be more ways for legal citizens to earn money without needing to join a department, there would be a significant improvement in roleplay. Here are a few legal features that could be added:
Ore Mining
Ore mining could be a simple way of earning money. You would buy a pickaxe from a store (sporting goods for example) and you would drive out to the mining field (could make it off of the new road near the cabin). You would simply walk up to a rock with your pickaxe out and click, swinging the pickaxe. When mining, you would have a 40% chance of getting nothing, a 30% chance of getting stone, a 10% chance of getting gold, a 6% chance of getting diamond, and a 4% chance of getting an emerald (for example). The ore would then go into your physical inventory in which you would drive to a dude (we’ll name him dave) at the cabin or something where you could sell the ore. Stone would sell for $30 apiece, gold for $50 a piece, diamond for $100 apiece, and emerald for $500 apiece. You could simply do this over and over earning a fair bit of money.
Farming
Farming would be another simple way of earning money. You would go and drive to farms and pick wheat (or something like that), you would have a 70% chance of getting nothing and a 30% chance of getting a piece of wheat. If you were to buy a hoe, you would then increase your chances to 50/50. Wheat could sell for about $25 to $30 apiece.
Oil mining
Another job could be oil mining. You would grab the necessary tools (idk how you would be able to roleplay that one) and go to an oil field where you would have a 90% chance of not receiving anything and a 10% chance of receiving oil. You would then drive to Capital Gas where you could sell the oil, the more oil that is sold, the more gas prices go down. Oil would sell for about $500 a barrel (apiece).
Delivery man
Another job would be a delivery man. An individual could drive to prominence and start the job there, to which their paycheck increases to $19 every 5 minutes. They would receive a van (it would be frp to do crime in the van) and would be put into worker’s clothes. From there, they would pick up packages and drive to Arborfield residential and redwood residential, as well as, select businesses across the map, to deliver packages. When delivering the package, you could be paid anywhere from $50 to $150 per package.
These are just some quick ideas I’ve thought of that I believe would be amazing for roleplay and a good way of earning legal money. Of course, I don’t know how difficult it would be to script this in, build it, and provide the appropriate tools. I would love to see at least one of these added into V2 as it would actually give incentive for legal people to go on the citizen team.
I apologize for any grammatical errors.
