  1.  The RDM zone maps need to be updated.

    Here's the current map-list from worst to best IMO (if i am not missing any):

    To summarize my opinions on them without going into too much detail:

    Grates: Extremely campy and boring, with the platforms being oneway it makes players incentivize camping around waiting for others to snipe, the middle area is absolutely useless and the sniping is extremely easy.

    Beams: The middle is just kinda stuffed with beams from nuke and a singular rock, making it really easy to just back into a corner and awp people for days behind some deployable shields and armor packs.

    Docks: The spawns are split between the top and bottom area. Sniping is much harder when facing people from ground but very easy when they spawn on top. Also ambushing people from top makes mid very odd.

    Mess: Getting caught on the sides of the map will kill you easily. Middle is interesting to play on but not enough outgoing cover. Also the hitboxes are oversized causing some to waste ammo trying to shoot thru the wood.

    Opencube: Combats focused in on the small bits of cover which is nice. Awping is easier than mess but still not impossible to counter with all the cover. Some of the spawns are pretty bad however.

    Houses2: The great Houses2. the Houses aren't very well spaced but its not nearly that bad. Roof spawns can be overpowered when combined with any sniper. A lot of the indoors area is a bit useless for anything but camping because of the fact that you cant shoot through any of the windows. Overall though its not that bad and i personally like it.

    Houses: The top tiered map. The map has great shooting lines but can be countered by going into the wooden houses and shooting through those as i find that most people forget about them. The middle has some alright cover with the warehouse shelves in-between. The spawns aren't too terrible either, with only a few spawns on the roof that usually don't last too long. It would be my go to map if the list couldn't be changed at all.

     

    I also have made my own personal RDM zone that i would like to be able to test out if given the chance:

    https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/651933044386824202/741649232255254577/rp_downtown_tits_v20169.jpg

     

    I think it would be a better idea to have one central rdm zone map that everyone plays on rather than having 7 maps and only having 2 that most of the community would call "fun". It also would make updating it more valuable as you wouldnt have it being in competition with other maps, and having map resets of the map needing $50,000 or an event token.

    Priority:

    Low

    Description:

    Currently the water barrel does not let you unscrew the cap, forcing you to be near a plant area in order to "uncap" it. This is imo extremely dumb as it means that using tilling plots will not let you just unscrew up some water right then and there.

    Furthermore the current system for unscrewing the cap "being near plant area" is buggy and its extremely annoying trying to sit there and get it to work.

    How to reproduce:

    1. Spawn water barrel and fill it up
    2. Put the cap on it and pick it up
    3. Try to use the water jug in the noted situations

    note: there might be a way to unscrew it that is just unknown but if thats the case then theres nothing telling you about it and nobody on the server knows about it

    Bug

    Priority:

    Low

    Description:

    You can toss your dildo during a rampage or just in general and you wont be able to pick it up, leaving you with no weapons during a rampage

    How to reproduce:

    1: go abomination
    2: go into a rampage with !ramapge
    3: toss the dildo

    Bug

    Priority:

    Low

    Description:

    Sewer lord can get to areas in the map that stay below the "underground threshold" rather easily, letting him run fast and regenerate health without burning

    How to reproduce:

    The easiest method ive found is:

    1: go sewer lord and make your way up to the stairs closest to the 2nd fountain area
    2: make a dash to the beach
    3: you should make it easily and with health to spare

    20200714094544_1.jpg

    [heres me standing on land not burning to death and moving at 420 hm]

    other bugs to report about the sewer lord + some complaints i have

    Exploit

    Description: You can continually "buy" fishing poles but you wont receive any and it costs nothing
    How to reproduce: Go as sewer lord to a fishing pole fridge and try to buy some
    Priority: Low (only might be an issue if fishing poles got logged)

     Quality of Life

    Description: Sewer lord, despite being forced to punch enemies in the sewers, has a rather low 100 hp with no chance to use armor from normal packs. I think he should start with 200 hp and 100 armor
    How to reproduce: Spawn in as sewer lord and see that he has only 100 health
    Priority: low

  5. Category:

    Bug

    Priority:

    Medium

    Description:

    You can retain usage of the VIP weapons after the VIP event is over. (note you cant holster or in any way keep them forever but you can still use them

    How to reproduce:

    1. Get picked as VIP and survive the event
    2. (only required if you are trying to use this for raiding purposes) get knocked out and kill your captor to reset your model

    note: i'm only going to put this at a medium given how complicated it is and because i was completely unable to maintain the weapons afterwards (believe me i tried). However i think the best use of this would either to be as mayor (if thats even possible) and the other one being on base defense as the VIP shotguns a good improvement over the base + you get to keep any extra hp you had

    If there was a way to keep these guns then this would be an immediate high/urgent as these could be grinded out at like 8AM with enough money

    [picture shows me as bank heist leader holding the VIP shotgun: shown by how it holds 8 shecks over the normal 5 shecks]

    Quality of Life

    Priority:

    Low

    Description:

    If you eat loot and swap jobs you can keep the loot inside of your mouth so that you can move it as a separate job. This includes jobs that have pre-set spawn areas such as shark, sewer lord, mayor, and VIP.

    I don't think that should be a viable way of quickly moving loot as it could lead to ppl defending their base moving all the loot extremely fast.

    How to reproduce:

    1. Spawn Some Printers/Processors
    2. Put them in a pickup box and eat that box
    3. Switch to any of the jobs listed above (or use another one, but you wont teleport like those do

    Exploit

    Priority:

    Medium

    Description:

    You Can Easily Put Med/Armor Stations Inside Of Players And Get Them Stuck. These Stations Cant Be Deleted By The Player who put them down (although i believe admins can delete them)

    More importantly admins cannot see who put them down as when i checked with sum bear the owner of the med station returns as NULL, so you would possibly be able to get away with doing this and also possibly blocking doorways using this method.

    How to reproduce:

    Place a med/armor station inside of a player preferably facing upwards.

    (If you are having trouble with them getting out you can stand on their heads to prevent them from jumping.)

  8. Bug/Exploit?

    Description: RDM zone pots do not actually get used from other players
    How to reproduce: Get an RDM zone pot and have someone use it while you are holding it with your grav gun (might not be necessary)
    Priority: Low

    also

    Exploit:

    Description: You can still purchase pots from the quest shop, and likely also from quests
    How to reproduce: Check the quest shop and you'll see the option for it still there, also you can use it too.
    Priority: Low/Medium

    not really sure if the 2nd one is a bug as if the job for making them is gone but the pots are still around that would seem to mean that the jobs not completely out of the server yet?

  9. Bug

     

    Description: You can easily replicate the old speed conservation bugs using a new method

     

    How to reproduce:

      Go as the class you want to get speed from (shark would be the easiest but pig could do better i think)

      Hold alt using +walk in console

      Switch jobs to the one you want to use this new speed on.

     

    Priority: High

     

    note: This is basically just a new method of speed conservation and at this rate, I think Shark should just be removed as its very easy to use the class to abuse heavily and as for playing it for RP purposes hes just a more useless Sewer Lord but that's just my opinion.

  10.      The forum, while very useful is (at least in my opinion) also very outdated in 2020 and while some might consider its advantages to be worth it i think we should move stuff like suggestions/bug reports to the discord for the ease of accessibility and for the fact that discord is much more recognizably used by newcomers and old-heads alike.

     

         Now it might sound crazy to just stop the forums entirely and have everyone go to discord forever but hear me out, I've seen communities that have solely used discord for everything and I've seen communities like this one that use forums and i believe that discord works a lot better than using forums like these. I mean heck there isn't even a link to the forums in-game, and even the discord has that. Most people who play Garrys Mod and especially Dark RP will already have a discord account and even those who don't have one probably won't mind going through the little effort it takes to setup a discord account for the sake of using it. Contrast this to using the forums where you'll have to go sign in through steam which will require that you have an authorization code ready on your phone likely right after asking people "where do i go to suggest something". After that process then every time you want to make a report or a suggestion or just anything you have to go to Google, either type in or use a bookmark if your ok with some tits on your screen forever, likely sign in all over again, and then and only then will you be able to do whatever you want to do. Discord doesn't have this problem, you wanna report something? hit shift and ~ and there you go, instant access to anything you need to report. Don't have it installed? Well then you just go to discord through chrome, and there you go, there's no long signing in process for the majority of people, there's no requirement to have an authorization code, its easier. There's no need to keep using these forums for things that shouldn't take longer than 13 seconds from start to finish.

  11. Bug/Quality of Life

     

    Description: The Hobo Garbage Bins Spawned Around The Map Block The Dots Used By Parcels And Other Jobs That Use A Dot To Mark Things (Including The Mayor To The Revolt Leader) But Only If The Garbage Bins Are Visible At The Time Of Blocking The Mayor (likely cuz of the optimization already present on the map)

     

    How to reproduce: Do A Parcel Mission, Find The Dot And A Hobo Garbage Bin And Move In between The Dot And The Bin

    Alternatively, Go Mayor, Have Someone Start A Revolt, And Have Him Look At You Through A Hobo Garbage Bin

     

    Priority: Low/Medium

  12. seems to work for those but that feels like i'm getting cheaped out of what i really wanted it for since it looks like it should prevent all fall damage on every class, not just weird/stupid jobs. If it could specify that its only for those/work for all classes that would be alright i guess

  13. Bug/Exploit

     

    Description: If The Mayor Doesn't Die And Leaves Office, You Can Remain The Mayors Assassin And Kill The Next Mayor Immediately To Push Him Out Of Office And Demote Him.

     

    How to reproduce: Go Mayors Assassin With A Mayor On And Have The Mayor Leave/Switch Jobs/AFK Or Whatever And It Should Work

     

    Priority: Medium

  14. Bug

     

    Description: Sometimes You Will Be Given A Second Target As Bounty Hunter Right After Completing The First One If You Have Golden List (Gang Level 60). The Second Target Cannot Be Killed To Complete The Hit As Well.

     

    How to reproduce: I'm Not Sure If Its Common, So Id Just Go And Play Bounty Hunter With It And See If You Can Replicate It.

     

    Priority: Medium

  15. Bug/Quality of Life

     

    Description: Reinforced Legs Is Extremely Inconsistent On Stopping Your Falling Damage And Will Times Not Stop Any Of It

     

    How to reproduce: Just Fall A Bunch Of Times As Different Classes And Test It Out, I've Been Able To Consistently Hurt Myself By Bhopping Near The Long Tunnel Around The Cereal Statue.

     

    Priority: Medium/High
