Myxtro Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Do hired drivers work in MP? My driver doesn't seem to bring me any money, even after a few hours. (I only have one driver so far) And no, I didn't use this profile in singleplayer so there's no time difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 However, having hired drivers in your MP can cause game crashes and freezes. The advice always given is to dismiss all your drivers so you do not have any of the issues having drivers in your garages on MP causes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killua // Ireland ^_^ Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 yes they do work, in fact they never stop so unlike in SP where when you leave they stop in MP they don't so your hired drivers can earn you millions I got 10 hired drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trucking Gekco Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 If you want to have a legit money count then I would avoid adding any drivers. Since the time in MP never stops when ever you fast forward time (f7, sleep, ferry etc) the game then catches back up to the server time and it calculates the money your drivers "made" within that time frame. You might sleep one time and have 1,000,000 Dollars in your account, maybe less maybe more, all depends on how much drivers you have and how much time needs to be caught up on. WARNING: If you do happen to hire drivers then you can run into a black screen issue while fast forwarding time. During this you cannot press any buttons or else your game will freeze, this will also make it look like you're sitting on a road so either pull off to the side, or do it in a NCZ. There is no telling when this black screen will happen, but I know it does happen seems to be rare though. The more drivers you have the longer it will take because the game needs to calculate loads done for every single driver which takes time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is quite strange as time doesn't actually progress when you sleep like in singleplayer. I was expecting them to be more legit in multiplayer as the time is server-sided. You can easily farm money in singleplayer by just sleeping 3 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucking Gekco Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 As I said, MP time never stops, but when you log off you're no longer on the MP clock. So you may log off today and your game will be synced to the MP time today. However, if you come back in 4 days from now and log back in then the game has 4 days worth of game time to catch back up on. With SP, when you log off the game time stops, when you log back in game time resumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myxtro Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 ^ Makes sense. Are there any plans on making hired drivers client-sided / only work when you play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucking Gekco Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I think they are planning on making a sever side economy but I have a feeling that is years away from now. They first need to block users from using something like Cheat Engine to add money to their account, they also need to find a way to block the driver glitch.

Myxtro Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 ^ Is a server-sided economy really needed in order to make drivers work only when you are online? Now I'm not a programmer or whatsoever but this shouldn't be a very hard system to make right? (the drivers thing, not the economy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver-Ramon Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I do not have a bad idea if that works in mp people renting honestly never tried to say try but then you will get there soon enough. If it works, tell me if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
