Message Display for Police Vehicle only


Recommended Posts

Suggestion Name: Message Display for the Police Vehicle

Suggestion Description:

It allows the admin to show a message like: Road Closed on the rear or between the "police lights"

 the message can flash like: on, off, on, off what the admin want

 He have the press a button and then he can write the message and choose the mode he want like:

 "show only or flash" and it will show on the rear or between the police lights

 He can add the display in the "Workshop" or add a new "light bar" for this mode.

 When a player try to put it on the car he will be kick out because he maybe write some stupit words or sentence                         

                                       

Any exemple images:  0C184741-6339-4564-BF38-DF1926346089-24356-00001B7E1CD8D154.jpeg.200d7bfa4465ad173fb88b6bbaf83204.jpeg

                                        (Real Life)

Why it should be added?

Some player have the chat off and they don't know what happen and the admins dont have to write it 100            

 times in the chat they turn the display on and warn the players or stop random a player

This would really add to the realism of the game and would be a nice touch.  Yes there is chat but sometimes you miss what's written in chat

won't be of much use. just turn the chat back on.. why turn it off in the very first place when you seem to need it.

if the admins have no problem or don't mind typing 100times, that's their issue and don't require you to speak up for them.

and even if the said admin has to type it 100times, that specific player would probably be kicked/banned/teleported by the 3rd-5th time the admin had to repeat his warning to said player.

TBH, I don't pay a lot of attention to the chat... I'd rather pay attention to the road and my surroundings, so I don't see the need for something like this.

 

And yes, I noticed after giving some "reactions" that the topic is almost 2 years old, but... I roam the forums by "Show unread messages" and this one happened to be there... :rolleyes:

Neutral thing in my opinion. Some people don't really pay attention to the chat. So in that context it would be a good idea. On the other hand you would need to make it very obvious for people to see it.

I'm sorry but I see this useless. Players can miss administrative messages in the chat, but those messages are sent to everyone, this thing on top of a car would only be vissible for very nearby vehicles and many of them would probably miss it as well, for not paying attention, for having their graphics set to low res, etc. And being of very little help, the use of something like this in heavily crowded areas would only add to the stress for lower-end machines, FPS loss, lags, etc. I don't think that the benefits outweight the drawbacks.

I suggested something very similar to this a year or two ago, and it was very quickly rejected. I am very interested to see where this goes.

 

I think a better way to implement this would on the roof mounted matrix boards on the special transport escort vans, which are currently used by the event team. However, I do feel that if this is implemented the option should be available to players. Players can not close a road, yet are often first on scene to an accident or congested area. This is where the matrix board would become useful, because it would allow players to park at the side of the road, a short distance ahead of the problem area, and warn traffic. There is of course the issue of possible abuse of this feature. I believe that this problem can rectified by preventing players from tying a message, and instead having some preset messages to choose from.

Its kinda pro and contra at same time, as previous said may few people won't see it because of low graphics

Pro would be that it looks cool and for some who have the chat off get to know what is happening infront of them

But i am excited to see where this suggestion is going ;)

. If they add this then players will want this on the pilot cars.

2. Granted, chats may be off. But it's very obvious if something is closed by the admins because there is more than 1 admin there. 

3. It might be very hard to read anyway, especially for those who need to play with a very low graphic setting.

As many have mentioned before, the idea is good, and for me, it makes sense.

However, I think that the easiest and simplest way to close a road would be the admin directly blocking it with the blue lights on.

By using this method, everyone should understand. After all, there is an emergency vehicle blocking the way. To understand that, no English or graphics setting is required.

 

TLDR: good idea, but can be done easier.
