[S]Taxi To Car Park

[TEF]

Here are the facts: The amount of vehicles on Las Venturas Playground has already been causing more lag than in 2.8x; there are plenty of vehicles in and around the Los Santos, San Fierro, and Badlands (it's where Mount Chilliad is, guys) areas; finally, the eight current taxi locations provide more than enough choice of where you want to go with plenty of vehicles nearby. I don't want anyone telling me otherwise here, as jumping around all over San Andreas on the server has given me more of a clue than almost anyone about the entire vehicle layout and the overall lag. Moving on, however, let's say that a player taxies to the Ammu-Nation (/taxi 4) and they see no vehicles in sight. Not even the three Freeways by that bar across the street from the Burger Shot (of which are never used). What do you do? You go into the Ammu-Nation, buy what you needed (you didn't taxi there for nothing), come back out, then /taxi again and wait for it to arrive. This can apply to really any taxi location, as you always taxi for a cause. If you're taxi'ing simply to get out of a bad situation, you're abusing the command and should be killed with fire anyway. Like I've stated before, there are plenty of vehicles and taxi locations to choose from on Las Venturas Playground. Even if you're not in Las Venturas, you will still find a vehicle almost anywhere you go; perhaps less frequently, but you'll find them with a fair amount of ease. I don't want to read another "there's no cars outside Las Venturas" post again, as you've truly never experienced "outside Las Venturas" if you even try to claim so. As for the post about the management simply fixing the lag by Mafo or speedruntrainer's post about an "anti-lag system": Let me just say that while I have no idea how one would go about fixing the lag (I have my guesses, sure, but they are not fact), both of your posts are completely asinine considering how simple you imply these tasks to be. Unless you have a genuine suggestion about how to fix the lag, simply stay out of telling the developers what to do with such ambiguity.

In conclusion, this suggestion is not only unneeded, but also illogical. Also, Jordi, didn't you quit a few weeks ago? It's quite suspicious how you still make suggestions about the server when you claim to not even play on it anymore.

Thank you for reading!

Cheya Tef!    You said everything that needed to be said.

Okay, gf TEF.

Instead of me opening another topic about FC taxi can i ask here if that would be possible? I mean, i find that to be a useful suggestion, idk how you guy's feel about this but yeah, alot of people use FC daily and i think it would be beneficial.

Me too

My main reason for going against this idea is simply the lag that the vehicles will cause if they are all in one space.

You'll be sorry if some n00b taxies to FC and kills you while you're having a fair fight with one of your peers. My vote is against a taxi to FC.

Fc is actually half minuten from /taxi 1, so i dont think it adds any advantage...

Let's make an example.

Player 1 kills Player 2.

Player 2 gets med and says " FC nao you ez " Player 1 say's calmly " k ".
Immediately there is a duel at FC thanks to the addition of /taxi FC. No messing around with Player 2 saying " Wtf where are yU, y0 you coming ez kill ? " " Scared " instead Player 1 can pwn Player 2 again, in an instant ! How novel !

Can the management fix this lag? Some way?

All the continous timers and checking through all players ect, is causing the lag, and I think the "improved anti cheat" is the main suspect of lag. Although I could be wrong, they might of not added the improved anti cheat or something else but im not sure since I aint seen the script.
