New SAORP Server? Very Possible!

I'm not sure who still hangs around here, but for those that do I have a little info you may be interested in.

I have been working on a new script. It has quite a few better features than our old script, but it is lacking some things that may or not be added in the future.
As some of you may remember our old script had around 21 factions. Police, Fbi, Army, Multiple gangs, and mafia etc, with scripted houses, and vehicles for all of them.
The new script only has 4 factions at the moment Police (4 Districts Custom by the leader), Government, News, and Hitman. All 4 factions have ranks that the leaders can customize. To replace the old scripted factions, we will use families. As of right now their are 10 families. This will be most likely be increased to 15 or 20. You can create your own rp family, and choose an HQ with an existing interior or buy a house for your gang hq or you can donate for a custom interior HQ. Family vehicles are limited to 5 vehicles with no mods, of your choice. If you need more than that you can have your members buy their own car. Mods will not save on Family vehicles, but Vehicle colors and mods will save on vehicles you own.

The new script has donator rewards, such as less time in hospitals, toys, spawn with a certain amount of health and armor depending on your donator level, own multiple biz, house, and cars, and more.

These are the jobs with more to be added.
MECHANIC - You can add nos, and mods to cars.
LAWYER - You reduce fines and jail time.
TRUCKER - You deliver packages for a nice fat paycheck.
FISHER - You catch fish, and can sell them to the market.
Weapon DEALER - You sell weapons to other players.
Weapon SMUGGLER - You smuggle weapons to drop zones for weapon dealers to get and sell.
Drug DEALER - You sells drugs which increase health, and armor, but may cause death by overdose.
Drug SMUGGLER - You deliver drugs to drop zones for drug dealers to sell.
BODYGUARD - You get Armor from this guy.
BOXER - You can become a boxer, and people can place bets on your win or loss, which you get a cut of the bets.

You can own 6 different types of scripted business's that make money when players shop at your store.
1. Clothes Shop - used for changing your skin.
2. 24/7 - Used for buying cellphones, phonebooks, spraycan, gascans, and others.
3. Club - It is a bar that players can buy drinks, and get drunk.
4. Gun Store - Used for buying ammo.
5. Advertisement Agency - Players use these locations to place /ads
6. Fast Food - Used to refill health from buying food.

Note 1: Business's start at level 1, and the higher the level, more products you can sell.
Note 2: You will only get products by being logged in and using /buyproducts. Inactive business owners will not be restocked.

Some Features

We now have "Points" which families fight over to gain control, and earn profits from players getting mats, and drugs.

Admin accounts are separate from their role-play account, and all they have to do is /aduty to switch back and forth. This will prevent any chance of a bad Admin giving his role-play account advantages.

HQ's can be set up easily in game by an Admin by creating a door, with already scripted custom interiors.

Admins can award players "Tokens" for winning events, or being loyal members. Tokens can be used to buy full health, armor, drugs, and ammo.

VIP Levels
BRONZE VIP: /v /vip /vips /mech + /buyhealth /buyarmor + [VIP Lounge | Newbie Tag]");
SILVER VIP: /buyviptoys + Bronze VIP + [2 Jobs | 2 Vehicles]
GOLD VIP: /vipbuddy + Silver VIP + [2 Houses] ( You can give a friend 1 hour Bronze VIP)
Platinum VIP: /buygun + Gold VIP + [2 Businesses

Families have a safe/vault that they can place anywhere in their hq, which stores money, and drugs.

I still need to hire a mapper, and a good scriptwriter before I decide to get a host, and open the server.

I will keep this post updated.

I was working on a custom skins pack, but just got a new computer, and skins are not working properly on windows 8, so I may have to scrap that project.

I have some real life stuff going on that is slowing down the progress, and besides that summer is close which always seemed to be the time that player activity was low. Because of this I will probably not buy a host anytime soon, but I will continue to upgrade the server files.

Maybe by mid to late summer we will get this server going.
