Freeroam - Shadowz - 14.05.2012

Ok, so usualy freeroam server have dm/stunt/race/mission, but I rarely or never see RP next to it. And I know people like to have serious RP server, but some tend to get bored of it all the time. So I was wondering what your opinions are on Freeroam/Roleplay servers? Do you think it should be a ligther roleplay so it can somehow co-exist with the freeroam and such?

You can split it into seperate virtual worlds, and make sure chat only stays in the world the chatting player it in. So say worldid 0 would be freeroam, then if someone types /rp they spawn in worldid 1

You'd have to do something like world[playerid] and then keep that at 0 by default (freeroam) and 1 for rp world. Then you'd have to add checks in a lot of callbacks and functions

OnPlayerText
if(world[playerid] = 1) only chat in world 1
else do everything in world 0

on‌playerspawn = you'll have to make sure they respawn in the right world.
on‌playerdeath = keeping death messages separate
etc etc etc


Something like that is easy, the hardest part would be to make sure you're keeping FR stuff in FR world and RP stuff in RP world. Really the only way you'll pull this off quasi-successfuly is to keep them completely separate. Otherwise the RPers will get bent about the FR people screwing around and mocking them for staying in character lol.

Well yeah, that is an option. But what I had in mind is have them both in the same virtual world and have it somehow working along side it. And this is mostly a topic to see peoples opinions about it and if there is any interest at all for it and such

I was planning a server like this; essentially bringing single player into samp but the idea changes a lot.

I really like the idea of virtual worlds

I like the concept a lot except the chat is annoying to have to fix.

Re: Freeroam - MP2 - 15.05.2012

I don't like the idea of virtual worlds, to be honest. It's splitting players up.

Re: Freeroam - Saad_ - 15.05.2012

So what they are on the same server at least and you can PM them if you want, just think about it, you play RP you are bored with a command you switch to TDM with a command you switch to stunt

Re: Freeroam - Shadowz - 15.05.2012

Well the point of the topic is to have a server that somehow combines freeroam and roleplay into one environment, not split up the players into different places..

There are ways to include them without needing to have them as the account name
