A mechanic faction

[Mircegg]

What's your Minecraft Username?: Mircegg
What's the title of your suggestion?: A mechanic faction

What's your suggestion?:
I have a suggestion regarding the new vehicle update. It would be great to introduce a mechanic job in the game. This would add a fun element to roleplay experiences. Additionally, you could add a feature where cars have a chance of breaking down. If a car does break down, players would have to take it to a mechanic and explain the issue, as there could be a chance of a part not functioning properly. This would add a layer of complexity to the game and make it more engaging.

How will this benefit the server and community?:
Players could join more factions, enhancing roleplay enjoyment.

Sounds like a good idea and it would add a new opportunity into roleplaying, but 1) we have a ton of factions already 2) cars breaking down may be hard to code and tons of bugs may occur.

I mean fair enough but we could give it a try you know?

As someone whose alias is literally ‘Mechanic’, you know I am gonna be biased on this.

I don't think we need a whole faction/role

As a playable position, yes.
But adding a new faction to it is not necessary.
(Temporarily placed under the jurisdiction of the government faction? Or other city factions?)

I don't see this as a needed enough role to put as a whole faction. There's also the big probability that a mechanic won't be online, therefore you won't be able to get your car fixed. This also just sounds like it'd be difficult plugin wise, making it an overall negative.

this. I like the idea of 1 slot roles where it can be applied for but there is only one or two openings. it gives the possiblity for TONS of roles without needing a whole faction.

What if we didn't have a plugin for vehicles breaking down, but instead optimised a [Mechanic] role for those who want to roleplay out fixing cars/their cars breaking down? It doesn't have to be a faction either, a role like [Architect] for instance isn't a faction but there are two people who own it.

The Architect role is currently occupied by Build Team members that have earned the role, however this can just be roleplayed out by adults by themselves, much like gangs just unofficial. You don't need a role to always be known as something!

As things are kicking up right now, I'd like to mention that this already exists. No, I don't think we'll be getting actual IN-GAME roles, but there is currently a group who'll be receiving a garage that can take care of maintenance of cars/bikes - just haven't been announced nor' released yet.

No we do not need more mechanic. With just one we have had like 9 kidnappings already.

The reason why there are a lot of slots in factions, including more "exclusive" ones like Shopkeepers, is so that somebody is bound to bump into one. If there was one, an entire plugin's functionality would rely on this one person, which is not just silly from the perspective of an always-online server, but the person would also have to be quite an Atlas to hold the weight of an entire server's worth of infinitely breaking down cars.

coming back to update on this

It's officially out for anyone who liked the idea! Check out the crime server and go to Karakura Autos to see more information on it (we haven't had the garage built yet but bare with me - the coordinates will be posted when it's done).
