[N]Increasing PirateShip Winnings

well i just haz some awesome idea 10 seconds ago and before i forget it again i better write it down fast:

what about if the cash you gain per second depends on how much you actually haz on you?

like that suicidal peoples will stay there with $ 10.000.000 to gain 10.000 per second but in the end everybody will hunt/camp them down.
lets say:

$500+ = 100 per second
$100.000+ = 1000 per second
$10.000.000+ = 10.000 per second

of course some more levels but most important is that you dont make it linear because that will cause imbaness.

what you think? right now NOBODY is on the ship. like that at least some big and wery important motherfuckers will move in there.

cool earning money way for newbies +1

[legolas3983]

[Friskyyyy]

good idea.

[BikeDriver]

i haz formula:

what about

moneys_per_second = money_on_you^0,5

for the idiots: 100^0,5 = 10
10.000.000^0,5 = 3162,27766

sounds good to me

What if by standing on the ship it would give you money and ammo

I don't care about the ammo, but the whole idea is great!

Maybe the money should depend also on the ammount of people on the ship? More ppl, more money? That would make ppl take the risk and not run when there are other people on the ship. Also it's a nice reason to work in teams more - whole gangs camping on the ship, so that the money raises faster.

But even without this modification idea is great.

I just see this as making the rich richer.

$3000 second * 60 seconds = $180,000 per minute! That's not taking into effect any compounding effect because the money rate would change everytime they gained money.

By the way, square roots (x^0.5) are very expensive in the script performance wise.

Cool idea , sounds ok.

[BikeDriver]

the armour idea is stupid. another place where the idiots can run to. NO LIKE!

armor per second could be cool 

by standing on ship you gain 1 HP and 1 Armor per second would be funny.

but no instant armor. that would be stupid.

and to the ones who say richer people will get more rich: no! its the difference! like that its pretty much the only possibility to make the rich guys POOR in an instant. i like the idea about gangs teaming up at the ship to gain monies or to rape the guys who try it to gain monies. that is what the ships were made for!

edit: oh i just found out you meant amo and not armor
amo per second cuild be nice but its kind of hard to script i guess. some script haz to find out what weapons you haz on you and then give you that amo per second. its not worth the work i guess.

i think that woud make the gameplay much easyer and it woud loose excitment right guys?
like i heard 2 years ago there wasnt so much stuff in the server and it ws mostly full, so why?

[wWallie]

Quite an easy way to earn money during nighttime when no one is on the server, or 10 players max.
Maybe activate this system only when there are 20 players or more?

[Dominator]

or we turn it the other way around and the noobs earn more and the rich fucks earn less?
