Morphine is hard to come by currently. It can be obtained from only two sources, neither of which can provide it in a supply level akin to other drugs within the city. The profit gained does not really equate well to the effort put into obtaining the drug. I dont want to stipulate too much of the facts here for fear of metagaming suffice to say it is very difficult to come by from the shops where it is obtained and the prescription route only works once in a blue moon.
I would like to propose two solutions - one would potentially be a pick up in the world - like the old ephedrine pick ups from when the server first started. I suggest this as it wouldnt be as easy to bulk produce the derivative products due to the necessary additional ingredients and the process but it would significantly increase the supply.
The other would involve a slightly longer process but borrow from existing mechanics within the game. Growing poppies. Seeds would be obtained from shops as normal and be completely legal, flowers would be grown in pots and then when harvested you would need a poppy knife (that youd possibly have to craft) and then youd be able to take the morphine from the poppy.
The morphine could then be processed in the usual way and become useful in other RP scenarios.
I would like to see either one or both of these suggestions implemented if possible - dependent on what people think is fair. The complexity of the process means this sort of thing isnt going to be everyones cup of tea i admit but for those who want to immerse themselves in some more interesting scenarios rather than simple profiteering it might be a good fun escapade.
Does it imbalance the server: well it gives people another way to make money so yeah in one way it does but in another it could be fun so i guess that balances things out.
