My Server Idea

[ArushenP2P]

Here is some of my Server Ideas for my Mafia Server. Im still adding a whole bunch of ideas i have alot so im just gonna show you a portion of it.

Store(NPC/AI)
[+]NPC/AI Respect System
-High respect means lower price, offering of jobs for cash, free gifts randomly, and access to background.

-Low respect means item price not altered, possible of banned from store, bodyguards can attack you randomly or once enter store.

[+]Gangs
-Have high enough respect than get AI to pay you for protection. Once
payed via AI agrees, than a AI of your gang spawns in the store.

-Once payed via AI Agrees to Protection Money, instant Access to backdoor.

[+]Restocking
-Depends on how the restocking will be. Maybe Two Options. Player sold store item and Time consumed stocking.

-Player Sold Store Item: Lets say there is Item#1, and the store allows Item#1 to be sold by players to the Store. If a player sells Item#1 to the store, than Item#1 stocks +1.

-Time Consumed: The restocking will occur in specific times and also can be depending on
how much the store's investment is. The more investment there are the more items can be
stocked. Also the store will only restock if its getting it's item stock to a point where its getting
low.

Store(Player)
[+]Tax
-A hired "Tax Collector" comes and get the tax or will send a note to Mayor of City.

[+]Accesories
-Furniture can be bought; Desks, Chairs, Couch, Lamps, Pots, etc.

[+]Upgrades
-Shop Licences for guns, clothes, food, etc.
-Floor Add-ons
-Backrooms. Already have one for First floor.

Thats it. Hope you like it

Let's see. Where to begin.

Here is some of my Server Ideas for my Mafia Server. Im still adding a whole bunch of ideas i have alot so im just gonna show you a portion of it.

Store(NPC/AI)
[+]NPC/AI Respect System
-High respect means lower price, offering of jobs for cash, free gifts randomly, and access to background.

-Low respect means item price not altered, possible of banned from store, bodyguards can attack you randomly or once enter store.

Unique idea this should definitely be implemented on a server if done right.

[+]Gangs
-Have high enough respect than get AI to pay you for protection. Once
payed via AI agrees, than a AI of your gang spawns in the store.

-Once payed via AI Agrees to Protection Money, instant Access to backdoor.

A new twist to something Era started gangwise and is a much overdone idea period. Example...On Dual Ortus we're doing families.

Store(Player)
[+]Tax
-A hired "Tax Collector" comes and get the tax or will send a note to Mayor of City.

Sounds a bit complicated with not alot of details. Do you know anyone who can script this kind of material?

[+]Accesories
-Furniture can be bought; Desks, Chairs, Couch, Lamps, Pots, etc.

Where will I be able to put these accesories?

[+]Upgrades
-Shop Licences for guns, clothes, food, etc.
-Floor Add-ons
-Backrooms. Already have one for First floor.

Hm. This is where you basically mixed Era with RPG. Guns, Food, Clothes. All done over. Backrooms done on Era. Shop Liscense. Not sure if it's on Era but it's been done before Stan thinks. :[


This wasn't a bash or disrespect to your idea my man. I just wanted to point out somethings, asks some questiosn. Ya know? :]

[ArushenP2P]

It's cool im always open to good criticism and also the tax collector thing i meant the mayor of a city have to hire a player to become a Tax Collector :P

For the furniture its like GK you buy it and the Owner can move it likewise. Hint: Too much furniture may over due the store xD.

I was trying to be as constructive as possible. For if I was to truly open my mind and give you what I was thinking. This would've been the crap that you would've heard had I opened my mouth:

"Era remake #1274 I hate the ideas."

But they're ok.

[ArushenP2P]

Heh :P

But not too creative. If I might say. You have a couple unique but most of them are revisions of things off of Era. Even then there aren't THAT many ideas. If you were going to create a server with these ideas...WAIT...before you do open a wordpad and wait a couple weeks, explain out your ideas in pad and eventually things will come to you and add on. Just keep waiting days and weeks and you'll eventually compile so many ideas you won't be ableto even implement them all.

[ArushenP2P]

Yes as i like to say to myself as i though of these ideas. "Dreams don't always come true"

[Cloven]

It just seems that I should remind everybody that while many ideas can be surprisingly similar when broken down in text form, it's only after the application/implementation of such ideas that criticism can truly be considered valid.

It may seem redundant, for example, to script another pet system at this point -- However if I were to offer an extra little "something" that made mine superior, you wouldn't find so many people discussing the fact that it's still a pet.

Good luck developing the Mafia world.

Uhm thanks i will try my best :P

Oh yes of course. Always good luck.

[ArushenP2P]

Yes goodluck refers to the good decisions of staffs people hire. That is one of the key points to all server's success rate.

[Lord Sephiroth]

I know I sound like Mr. Downpour lately but really, good luck with this idea and all but do you really think this kind of server is what people want? At what point are people going to get tired of a straight Gang/Mafia server?

What I'm saying is that it's not very stable gameplay, eventually you'll run out of places to go with it and as it is, it just sounds to me like it would appeal to a lower playerbase than other server types.

How are people making all these servers? Where are all the good staff coming from?! X_X

There are actually quite a large amount of talented developers on Graal. Hell on Dual Ortus I have 2 unknowns I believe. If not one. They both kickass.

[smirt362]

If you're going to do this, may I suggest setting it in a different time period? Perhaps back in the 20's, maybe everything can be in black and white

They arent, thats why most servers never make it.

There is rougly one to two good developers per server, and one of those almost always works somewhere else.

Already being done on N-Pulse Dev. Not quite as unique as Killerogue stated .
Not the attacking you part though.

[Eagle]

I was working on something similar once and plan to implement it on a project im working on. I can maybe help you with idea's if you like. ZH probably knows what im talking about.. ;p

Edit: Except not as complex AI system and stuff, lol.

Easy. They come from different servers. The amount of servers they've worked on and how WELL they worked on them determines how 'good' they are
