We have lots already, problem is they get found early on as most of them spawn at the coast or near stary, people use them for a quick run north, find something better or break a wheel and they are forgotten.

I'm thinking about adding in a script to remove and respawn bikes on a nightly basis, what do you guys thing about this?

We are running with a min 5 and max 15 bikes now, it was min 2 max 10.

Boats are pretty pointless anyway except the pbx, I might add a few more spawns for that though and lower the normal boat count. It's up to the players though really what does everyone think?

I think the script should check for 2 separate conditions. Look to see how damaged a bike is. Condition 1: (especially since you cannot repair a bike) If the wheels are busted, remove it from the map and give it the chance to respawn again. Condition 2: If the bike is not damaged AND not touched in 5 days, remove it from the map and give it a chance to respawn.

As for boats, we should add a few more PBX's and add some buildings to Skalisty Island. That way boats wouldn't be pointless. Add a firehouse, market, some warehouses and a couple deer stands to the island. (check out BMRF's island). With this stuff on the island, it would be cool to make it your home and defend it from intruders.

I didn't know you couldn't repair bikes, I'm too used to that old bug where you used to get off it and back on and it was fine I guess. I'll start removing any damaged bike thats not been updated in more than 48 hours. So they should show up on the coast more often :)

Yeah I'll swap some of the shitty boat spawns for PBX ones when skalisky gets its face lift in my next building update :D I've not played bmrf still, but firestation and deer stands are in my plans :)
