In fact... SCS implemented in v1.33 a console variable (g_disable_beacons (0/ 1/ 2) - for people having issues with blinking lights) that can be easily accessed from a script. I think 0 means NO beacons, 1 just orange static light and 2 the usual blinking orange.

In case +30 drivers around, the variable turns to 0, else turn back previous value... not hard I think.

 

NOTE: This effect will be only for the driver. As the idea said, a checkbox in the Launcher would be perfect. People with really good computers can just deactivate it, but we others can use it for earn those precious extra FPS  

Well yes, but this disables Police beacons too.

Well.... it can be used mode 1 (static light) when +30 players, we will still see the blue thingy  Anyway... using mode 0 (no beacons) maybe people will increment the caution due they dont know if an admin is around hahahaha. Undercover Admins needed!!

great idea

While I think the idea doesn't sound bad, I feel the time making this can be used towards something else, such as enhancing the in game report system. I think that its a very simple rule to follow, and I don't see a whole lot of people with beacons on in populated areas anyways. Just my opinion though.

Draw distance is automatically reduced depending on the playercount, which also affects beacons. As such, that rule was removed.
