Fuel System

maybe add a gasoline meter, I think this would add to the overall immersion of the game and give the players a bit more to do, give the game a bit more life.

I think having it as an option would be amazing. A couple gas stations would need to be mapped (the Fort Carson one is shut down, I can't think of any in El Quebrados, none in Las Payasadas or Las Barrancas, and probably a few towns in Red County) for this but this would be a fun option to have.

Theres one I totally remember was at Angel Pine aka the gas station tht blew up when I spiked striped the suspect right into the gas station on 7Precinct server :P


"Now I must run away"

 

Yeah there's one south of Angle Pine, and then another one on the interstate east of town there. There's also one between El Quebrados and Las Payasadas, but nothing between Fort Carson and El Quebrados which I now remember the large truck stop that's there. I don't think there's one in Bayside or Palomino Creek. There's one on the north end of Montgomery but I can't think of any in Blueberry. This is all going off memory so please excuse any errors lol.

To add, I see no point of having any additional gas stations to map as there are plenty which are actually spread properly, sure some smaller towns might not have them but going from Palomino Creek to Dillimore is nothing as they're quite close.


Here's a map that I managed to find of all existing gas stations (I can confirm these are all in game gas stations only that the map has them changed to their IRL counterparts):

Though this may seem like a good idea, I do feel like it is a bit too "RP"ish. And most definitely, people will most likely start to get annoyed that they have to refill their car each time. Or annoyed that their car runs empty of gas during a pursuit.

as long as you start off with a good gas level it would be fine, maybe have about 20-30 minutes (rl time) worth of gas and as long as you check it once in a while there would be no issue. just imo anyway.

Suggestion for (MTA, Forum, website): MTA


Suggestion: Adding a fuel system to the server where after "x number" of km, you would need to refuel otherwise your vehicle would not start


Why should this be added?: Would make it a lot more realistic, instead of just driving around endlessly, you would have to do the very basic task of refueling


Anything else you'd like to add?: I know people will start whining about "oh my car ran out of fuel while in a pursuit". Only thing I can say to that is, thats why you keep an eye on your fuel guage. Either you make sure you are always above half full, or if you run low on fuel during a pursuit, request a different unit to take over, and go refuel. Would make things a lot more interesting, as people would have to really consider, iss the pursuit worth it?

I think he meant this one http://i.imgur.com/Jp88IGQ.jpg' alt='IMGUR>'>

 

That would be Vinewood not Idlewood regardless that one wasn't put on the map for whatever reason lol.


Locking topic as it was bumped. This suggestion has already been logged

Just to add to what the last two posts noted, Vinewood Gas Station itself is not mapped in. The fuel tanks (or whatever they're called) are not in hence why it's not really counted as a legit gas station by GTA:SA I guess.
