Brief Summary: A change in the restaurants in order to bring more RP to them.
Detailed Suggestion:
At the moment there is very little RP brought to restaurants and they are more of a passive income for people while they go off and do other things. Hopefully the changes listed below can change that and have restaurants bring some quality RP to the server.
1. Make working at the restaurants a proper job.
Get pay checks from working at the restaurant which is set by the owner which comes out of the business account. Whilst being clocked in that then gives you access to the facilities such as the cooker and drinks machine. This would create more jobs in terms of people hiring waiters and cooks amongst other jobs with people having to apply and have an interview process which i think opens up a lot of avenues for roleplay. This stops people just trespassing making there own stuff and not interacting with anyone. I think there are already enough criminals on the server and this would cater to those who don't want that lifestyle.
2. Restaurants have food specific to their type of restaurant.
At the minute i'm pretty sure every restaurant can have the same thing on the menu although they can't make it in their kitchen. This takes away the uniqueness from each restaurant and makes them all the same. They should be selling things that fits their style of restaurant like Tiny Big Taco selling Tacos, burritos, quesadillas and other mexican food, Luchetti's should have Italian food like pizza, pasta dishes and others. I feel that making each restaurant unique would bring a lot more RP than them all being the same but with different prices.
3. More food choices.
To go with the second point i feel like there need to be a lot more food choices added to the server. There are very few options when it comes to eating food at the minute with most people just having smoothies or an english breakfast as they do both food and water. To incentivise people to go to these restaurants maybe give each shop a item of food what provides players with a temporary boost after they have eaten it. Other options could be that gas station/ shop food have a chance of making you feel sick and make your vision blury and you need meds to get rid or they simply give you half food once you have consumed them. Which means the player would have to go to a restaurant to get full hunger which would bring more RP.
4. More employee slots.
Restaurant should have more than 4 employee slots. More slots means more people working there which means more of a chance for someone to be in there working and providing roleplay.
5. Ability for Employees to close the counter
Make it so the employees working there are able to remove the menu that people buy food from so only employees have the ability to server them through the food trays or through table service. A lot of the time we have tried to RP being servers but a lot of the time people come in and take to food without even interaction with you taking away RP. Hopefully this would be a new system where people actually have no other option but to interact with you creating RP and also bring much more to working in a restaurant than cooking food and putting it behind a counter then come back a few days later to see how much money you made.
This suggestion is to hopefully bring a lot more RP to the restaurant business which i believe have endless roleplay possibilites as i believe not everything has to be cops vs criminals.
The Pros:
The Cons:
Does this suggestion change balance on the server ?
Yes
