Detailed Suggestion:
The Strength/Stamina stat in game feels like a one-off job that people need to do to get specific features/improvements to their gameplay (Locking on, Flipping cars, running for extra amounts of time etc.) While it does take a fair amount of time in the short term to max out this stat, I feel like there should be some kind of deterioration value over time which means you have to keep on top of your strength and stamina.
For example, I go to the gym on the 1st September, I workout and get myself back to 100 strength, I do not go to the gym for a couple weeks, so my strength has deteriorated to 86 (-1 per day?), however this value can be changed depending on what the agreed rate is. I then need to start going back to the gym and maintaining this value to ensure my strength is kept to a maximum.
As well as this, maybe a cap on how much you can workout per day should be implemented? Realistically I could not sit at a gym for hours on end working out until I was a lot stronger as eventually I would get tired (and probably injure myself after a period of time)
The Pros:
Gives gyms more use overall, potential for people to meet up to go to the gym together and workout
Could potentially result in some good RP scenarios in the gym
Means players will have to constantly look after themselves and ensure they are keeping strong instead of just running in there for 40 minutes and working out once
The Cons:
People may feel that this is going to be an inconvenience to their time on the server, having to actually maintain it instead of it being a "one and done" kinda job
Could potentially be difficult to find the perfect balance of deterioration over time
Does this suggestion change balance on the server ?
It will mean that players are forced to maintain theirstats instead of just forgetting about it, balance doesn't massively change, but this will add more effort required overall
