| DFP Addition. | Started by: Omniscient on Nov 28, '11 19:40 |

Currently if you have a DFP, you can only produce one drug and one drug only. Keeping it simple of course, but why not make it to where you can have your DFP produce more then one drug, or have it where you can purchase more then one DFPs. |

With the aount of money that the owner will be making, I think 12 hours will due fine, if you're not on your job then you will lose your DFP and someone else will be able to buy one for that city... |

I'd go for this. I haven't actually had a DFP yet, but if this were implemented I'd be inclined to go for one (or two) sooner, because there's more breadth there. I also see no issue with the 12 hour time frame; if you're going to invest in a DFP, you might as well be willing to commit the time as well as the money. |

Lets say you have 30 possible units. Could you buy 30 barbs and 30 heroin or 15 barbs and 15 heroin? Awesome idea! |

It could be 15 each. |

Keep in mind that not everyone is on every 12 hours. Some people have lives and can be away for 12+ hours at a time. This is why they went with a 48 hour timer on paying for your DFP upkeep. To make it so those who aren't here 24/7 and are busy working or with their families can have the same chance at running one as someone who is here and doesn't have as active a lifestyle. |

MonaLott, I think it was a little unfair to aim that directly at me. I'm not the only one that stated I have no issue with a 12 hour timeframe. That's not to say I will always have this time at my disposal; quite the opposite, in fact. And, might I add, I said nothing about anyone being 'punished' for having a life. I merely agreed with the suggestion. Just because my name appears frequently in the 60 second list or on IRC does not mean that I'm not busy with other things throughout the course of the day, and I'll thank you to not insinuate otherwise.
As Omniscient said, tweaks could be applied so that the change suits everyone across a broad spectrum. If a 12 hour window doesn't suit you, then that is fair enough - you could have simply stated that without singling me out. I'm pretty damn well offended that you did. You may want to employ some of your time getting to know someone a little better before using a suggestion thread to make public assumptions about their lifestyle. |

I really should have been clearer... |

That's fine - it did come across as quite abrasive, but thanks for clearing it up.
I do appreciate that not everyone would be able to work around the time aspect of the suggestion, but maybe if it were filled out with plenty of input from everyone so that we had something that suits us all, it could be a good addition. |

This oddly enough seems familiar... I'm pretty sure I've seen this feature on another mafia game that has presence on Jaundies...

I like the idea but heres my issue ... there already aren't enough DFP's available for everyone to have, with the city population loss of NPMs alot of cities populations have gone down significantly lower the amount of purchasable DFPs.
To say that we need two of them is stretching it a little bit.
I'm all for making more money but lets try a different way to do it. I'm sure this sounded like a great idea at the time but I don't see how this is practical enough to work into the game at this point.
Maybe first lets try to find a way to make DFPs more available to the population before we get too greedy. |
