----------------------------------------------------------EXPLINATIONS----------------------------------------------
<Chapter.Rule.Subrule>

CH1

1.1.3 You can shoot people who blow up your stuff

1.5 This is a one-way engagement from the person who has a friend in restraints to the captors. The captors either need to engage like normal, or wait until they are shot at to return fire. Once the captured friend is released the rule ends, and so would any engagement being held up by this rule only. If shots have occurred in the past 5 minutes, the engagement would continue following rule 1.7 

TLDR: If a group member or gangmate is in restraints, shoot away.

1.2 Group tags are a thing

1.3 A player must give time to read and react to an awful text message. If you choose to engage boats, cars, planes, and trains all in one message you have to add some extra reaction time. 

1.7  no need to check the RNR handbook for rules about how to be a civilian.

1.10. Code 3 is now officially engagement. Civs can shoot cops that code 3. Cops can only shoot if the civ runs in a vehicle, or they engage like normal.

Ch4

4.5  Storing a vehicle preemptively has been treated as CL for a while, now it's in the rules. 

4.6 This is moved from the MISC chapter as it makes more sense here.

Ch5

5.3 This is still a thing you can do. I don't know why we specified you are allowed to do a thing you are allowed to do anywhere in a helicopter. 

Ch6

6.1 && 6.1.2 There are lots of reasons to mess with the RNR, as long as a player is engaging and RPing correctly, feel free to mess with the RnR. 

Ch7

7.3 && 7.3.1(Old)  We are combining the two rules.

7.3.1 (New) The auto-unrestraint was not considered a safe release before this rule because the hostage player was never 'released' It's now stated more directly to alleviate confusion.

Ch9

9.1.1 Terror is now open season! Kill everyone in sight.

Ch11

This whole chapter was removed. Most of these things aren't possible anymore, and glitching out of jail would be exploiting which is covered by rule 22.7

Ch14

14.7 Randomly causing death and destruction is the definition of RDM and RVD. Depending on the circumstance, this is still against the rules but is better covered by the appropriate chapter. 

 Ch15

15.6 Kill them cops.

Ch 18 (Now Ch22)

We moved the chapter because it was weird having Misc rules in the middle of the rules.

18.2 Moved to Ch4 because it makes more sense there.

18.5 Don't ban evade.

18.6 && 18.7 Become 18.5  We combine two rules into one.

18.14 && 18.12  Rewording to make the rules clearer. Betting outside the game is not allowed.

Ch20

20.3  This was the most convoluted rule in existence. The rule was if you have a WPL hostage in a red zone they must be restrained so that the APD doesn't strip the WPL hostage license. It's worded so poorly and so niche that we think the rules are better off without it. Cops still shouldn't strip WPL's for no reason.

CH 22

Just changed some wording, and added a clear indicator when a medic is doing flight training. 

 

 

If you have any questions about the new rules please submit a Gen Inquiry and we will do our best to answer them promptly.
