New Taxi System

[WhoIsKimchi 3]

I've got a new idea for the new Taxi System, hope to be accepted by the staff of Olympus, what I'm thinking is...

Whenever a player requests a taxi, just like medics, taxi drivers can accept their request and have a displayed timer (6 mins) in the top right corner. Below the timer, it displays the taxi drivers distance from target location by meters. When someone requests a taxi, a fare is made for $2500 and gets transferred to the taxi drivers bank account, when they accept. Afterward, a continuous fare will be charged by $1000 every 1km is made - All this be wire-transferred to each other's bank accounts.

 

Whats your opinion on this?

So a taxi is going to lock someone in there car and drive around to make 1k per km the entire time while getting automatic wire transactions?????

Bruh it’s $1k a km lmfao. In 15 minutes that equates to like $20k

The taxi system should be worked on but this is not the right solution and it's probably very low on the things to get done list...

No point due to the low munber of taxi drivers

what if, if the person jumps out before the taxi has reached the requested location (aka to stop people from abusing it) it sends out some type of alarm. Not really sure how it would work, maybe the car could honk, it could send a signal to the cops or something. Since there are MAYBE 5 dedicated taxi drivers, I think this might be useful and wouldn't be abused. And ik ik, you think the cops would get annoyed, so don't make it pop up on the screen, just have a system like the medic panic button. If the alarm goes off, it makes a marker on the map for cops to see. It could also automatically add a charge to the person. Maybe something like "Taxi Robbery" for something like 10k
