Roleplay Rules: General

  1. RP Experience
    1. Fear roleplay, commonly abbreviated 'FearRP', is the concept that your character is afraid to die. This concept is most commonly understood as "Your life is the most important". Understanding that in real life we do not have a respawn button. When your life is at stake you must fear death and comply to threats unless you are 100% positively sure that you will survive. We highly enforce FearRP, although some situations come down to staff discretion.
    2. If you have an off-character issue then you MUST contact a staff member using the /adminh your message command.
    3. Links to the active laws for PEI and the Washington.
      1. LINK: PEI (RP#13).
      2. LINK: Washington (RP#10).
    4. All forms of sexual content, including but not limited to text chat, voice chat and roleplay are strictly prohibited!
    5. Please note all of Pandahut's Global Rules apply here. Such as no harassment, racism and more.

  2. RP Vehicles
    1. You are NOT allowed to hit other players with vehicles! Note: If you get run over while on the road, it may be considered your fault. However, if the person in the vehicle sees the person on the road and intentionally runs them over instead of stopping, then that will be considered the driver's fault! If you are damaged by a vehicle and it was the driver’s fault as outlined above, please contact a staff member.
    2. Unlocking a vehicle with a stealy wheely and stealing fuel from a vehicle leads to the thief being KoSable to the vehicle owner (or group)! Under NO CIRCUMSTANCE are you allowed to kill players stealing from someone else but your own.
    3. You MAY NOT carjack, damage, pop tires, and destroy random vehicles without permission from the owner of the vehicle unless that vehicle is directly involved in an RP Event! Do not KOS a player who does so, call a staff member as it is FailRP.
    4. If a vehicle is unlocked then the owner of the vehicle who originally owned it will still be the owner of the car until someone else steals the car successfully.
    5. All player-placed objects must be directly connected to the vehicle or it could be wiped. The player-placed objects can also not be excessively large despite it may be directly connected to the vehicle due to them not having collision.
    6. If a player enters your vehicle (any vehicle type) in front of you, you are required to give them warnings (follow warning system) to step away from your vehicle if you want them to get out and/or if they are not getting out of the vehicle. Note that if the player drives away, you may shoot them (KoS) while they are within sight, or just pop the vehicle's tires. If the player successfully steals your vehicle and is out of your sight for more than two minutes, you MAY NOT kill this player. They are the new vehicle owner if the successfully steal the vehicle.

  3. Player-Built Structures
    1. You cannot randomly destroy bases outside of Raids. Destroying or damaging (within reason) any part of a base (including crops) that does not belong to you is False Raiding. Note that items like placards on the outside of a base or a locker on the roof of a base is still part of the base. Use common sense when regarding what is and what is not part of a base.
    2. In order for a prefab or player-built structure to be considered a base, it must have a claimed bed, one storage container, one door and all windows must be covered. If the building is a shop, it does not require a claimed bed BUT must be labelled as such with a sign. Shops not properly labelled are subject to a wipe warning and eventual structure removal.
    3. You may only place claim flags in your own base. Claim flags should NOT be used to claim any area located at, above, or below the map's pre-fab structures. This includes the diner, hospital, library, and other buildings that come with the map.
    4. Floating structures are NOT ALLOWED. All structures must obey the law of physics (only pillars can be used to support a structure/base; pipes and other barricades are insufficient). Raised bases can only have a max height of 2 stories of pillars to support them upwards from the ground or from the roof of a prefab. Note: pillars supporting a raised base do not count towards base dimensions, but it must be noted in the raid description. An example of a proper raid description would be: /raid "4x4x3 Metal Base Supported By 2 Story High Pillars Behind Bank in Seattle".
    5. To prevent your base from being wiped if isn't finished, you must leave a sign stating it's under construction. This will temporarily qualify it as a base (it can still be raided).
    6. Your base must have a claimed bed, one storage container, one door and all windows must be covered
    7. A player may have up to one base and one shop. A CEO may have 3 bases and one shop. Mayors can have a maximum of 2 bases and one shop. Each group may have a maximum of one group base and one group shop.
    8. Buildings that fall outside of the above requirements may be destroyed by Administrators.
    9. ShopSigns must be placed inside a SHOP at all times and cannot be randomly placed on the outside of walls, lockers, etc. They also cannot be placed inside personal bases, they must specifically be placed inside a shop. Going against this rule will result to the shop sign being destroyed amd potentially the storage behind it.
    10. Each group may have a maximum of one group base and one group shop.
    11. You MAY NOT claim areas or force players to pay in order to pass by a certain area. All players may walk around the map freely, without having to pay to pass.
    12. You MAY NOT create KoS zones! Claiming Areas / KoS Zones constitute the following:

      4. Blocking off roads or/and driveways.
    13. The maximum dimension for a base and/or shop is 4(length) x 4(width) x 3(height) outside of a 100 meters from any prefab in Seattle, Everett, & Tacoma. Any base and/or shop within 100 meters of a Seattle prefab cannot be over a 2(length) x 2(width) x 2(height) dimension. Any base and/or shop within 100 meters of a prefab from Everett and Tacoma cannot be over a 3(length) x 3(width) x 2(height) dimension.
      1. (a) City limits/borders are determined by the location of prebuilt structures in the city's outskirts.
      2. (b) A range finder may be used to determine a person's base location in relation to city limits.
      3. Owners of buildings that fall outside of these restrictions must be given 24 hours to ensure their buildings are within legal limits. Failure to comply will result in the building being destroyed by admins.
      4. Bases may be combined or exceed the maximum permitted size with administrator approval only.
    14. Berries are not allowed to be placed inside of Seattle. Bases inside Seattle may have a maximum of 10 crops per player within an enclosed base. Players and groups are not allowed to have more than 8 plots worth of crops/berries at a time.
    15. If you sell a base to a player, you cannot salvage the base after the transaction has been done. You cannot defend the base that you built (unless you are police) if the base has been sold to another player. Each base you have that is not sold will still count as your own base (example: you cannot have twenty player-built bases that haven't been sold yet).
    16. If two bases are very close to each other, it will count as two bases unless the bases are directly connected to each other with an exit. If the bases are connected and can be accessed between one another, it will count as a single base.
    17. The dimensions of a base should be classified as follows:
      1. In length and width, each floor or roof horizontally counts towards the dimension.
      2. In height, each wall vertically counts towards the dimension.
      3. Triangular floors/roofs should be counted from the LONGEST STRAIGHT SIDE (this may go through the center of a triangle).

  4. Friendly Sentry Gun & Traps
    1. Friendly sentry guns and traps can ONLY be placed inside a completely closed-off base and must NOT face a direct exit (open or closed). A direct exit would be classified as any exit (door, garage etc.) that connects to outside of the base. This means you cannot place friendly sentry guns or traps anywhere else than inside your enclosed base. Your base MUST be non-accessible to other players except for group members. Sentry guns are allowed in shops as long as they cannot shoot anything outside of the base it is currently in. Baiting players into a sentry gun is not allowed. Sentries inside a shop can not be placed in the line of sight of any clients.
    2. You cannot have any openable structure behind a direct exit to conceal a sentry gun or traps.

  5. EXTRA IMPORTANT RULES
    1. If you found a loop-hole within the rules, you MUST report it to an RP Administrator, or create a forum post about it, failing to do so and going forward with abusing said loophole will result in more severe punishment.
    2. When being warned to leave a vehicle, base, or anything that is not related to an arrest, kidnap and robbery, you're NOT ALLOWED shoot back in self-defense. You can ONLY in cases of resisting an arrest, robbery, kidnap, or defending yourself from somebody randomly shooting you without any reasons.
    3. During an RP event (or countdown for event start) you are not allowed to switch roles in order to participate in the RP event.

    4. You cannot kill a player if their gun is on safety mode and they switch it off safety in an RP event.
    5. If the player you are calling the RP event on begins to shoot the weapon and/or swing the melee weapon they are already holding, you may kill them in self-defense. A Recording may be required by staff or it could be considered KOS.
    6. Scamming is not allowed.
      1. If a player cannot complete their transaction on either side, then the deal MUST be called off. Note: If a player can complete their transaction but doesn’t willingly do so, they might be forced to complete the transaction. This depends on the staff member at the time and the transaction itself. Transactions like a 5 million BB coin flip where one side cannot pay will not be honored, and the transaction will be canceled.
    7. Spawning in excessive amounts of vehicles, items and/or intentionally causing lag may result in punishment based on staff discretion. Bases that have an excessive number of barricades placed inside or around them are subject to wipe and player punishment.
    8. You cannot leave the game in order to leave an RP events like kidnaps, robberies, getting jailed, arrests, and court dates.
    9. You must wait at least 2 minutes after you switch to any outlaw role to perform a rob/kidnap/hit, or it is Fail RP. This rule is not applicable to Bodyguards and Doctors.
    10. If you are damaged by crossfire from an RP event that you're not apart of, you can't defend yourself, as it is considered your own fault for being in the way.
      1. If you are purposefully caught in crossfire, contact a staff member. Do not kill the player(s).
    11. If you died and your body was looted by another player, you MAY NOT demand that the player gives back your items. The only time someone must drop your looted items is if the player unrightfully KoS'ed you. This can only happen if decided by a Moderator on duty. This also counts if by example you dropped an item and a random person comes and picks it up, you MAY NOT tell them to drop it as it's your fault for dropping the item publicly. You cannot pick up KOS loot. If you pick up KOS loot, a staff member can clear your entire inventory.
    12. Keep World Chat to RP only. Do not argue and use excessive caps in chat. This rule is lightly enforced (i.e not just an instant ban, warnings first).
    13. You may not salvage anything when an RP event is called on you. If you are in a vehicle or a base, you cannot have players salvage an item to help you while you are in an RP event.

    17. If an RP event is called on a player who is actively shooting, the player must be given a reasonable chance to respond to that RP event or it might be taken as the intent is only to kill the player if you kill the player instantly.

    19. You may use the metro system to to leave a raid zone. However, you may NOT use it to escape events that are called on you.

  6. Warning System:
    1. When using the warning system, you must only warn players if they are refusing to follow your commands (allow them some time to follow your commands) spamming warnings simply in order to get to 4 warnings to KOS the player is not allowed and can be punished by means of FailRP.
    2. Most of our roles need the use of a warning system. Roles like Police, Bandits and Kidnappers use warnings to successfully complete their respective missions. Each role must give out 4 warnings. For text warnings, you MUST make your first warning in World or Area chat and the last three in Voice or Area/World chat, depending on the situation. All warnings should have a 7 seconds interval between each warning, although upon reaching your 4th warning you must ensure that you allow an extra 7 seconds after you've given your 4th warning before KoSing the player. Failure to do so will result in a ban depending on the severity and will be considered KoS. Make sure that your warnings are CLEAR on what you want your victim to do. For example:
    3. If a player is in your base, you may give them 4 warnings to leave. If they do not comply, you must warn 4 times in world chat before killing them. IMPORTANT: The player must be INSIDE your base. If they are just hanging outside of a base, that is allowed. Warnings to leave reset after 5 minutes. (Warn a player twice, they come back 3 minutes later, warn them for the third time.)
      1. Mechanic: "BananaMan, out of my base now! Warning 1! (You MUST add the player's name, since there is no command to ask a player to leave your base.)
      2. Bandit: "Warning 1, drop your visible guns and backpack. Do NOT pull out a gun." (There is no need to add the victim's name since the /rob command has the player's name in it when announced.)
      3. Police: "Warning 1, do not pull out a gun, please put your hands up." (There is no need to add the victim's name since the /arrest command has players name in it when announced.)
        1. Police officers may NOT continue warning the player if they are complying with the officer’s request.
        2. Police officers MUST utilise their taser to conduct their arrest if the warnings are not followed, the only time you may shoot to kill a player is if they equipped a weapon, or have still not followed your instructions after having been tasered and handcuffed!
    4. Any scenario not outlined below required a target name.
      1. Roles that are required to use the warning system are the following:
      1. Bandits - Required to use the warning system right after using the /rob command.
      2. Police - Required to use the warning system right after using the /arrest command.
      3. Kidnappers - Required to use the warning system right after using the /kidnap command.
      1. Situations that REQUIRE a warning with the PLAYER NAME included. (All roles)
      1. Stolen Vehicle - You are required to follow the warning system when someone enters your vehicle in front of you. However, if a player stealy wheelies a vehicle, he is instantly KoS to the Owner(s). If the player has successfully stolen your vehicle and is out of your render distance, the vehicle is now considered theirs. If the player successfully steals the vehicle and it becomes theirs, they MUST wait 2 minutes until they can add that vehicle to a garage.
  1. Rules: Kidnapping
    1. You must NOT kidnap friends repeatedly for the purpose of creating a KOS zone, kidnapping should be used on random players the same way a robbery would be conducted. Kidnap events should be random, and therefore you cannot ask players if they want to be kidnapped.
    2. People not involved in the rescue or kidnapping RP events cannot intervene (i.e No blowtorching walls or destroying police charges just if you own the base but aren't kidnapping.)
    3. Kidnappers can KOS anyone who enters the kidnapping base if the base was fully closed at the start of the RP Event and they do not bait people to enter the base in any way.
    4. Kidnappers can only kill police officers inside a kidnap zone, defined as 50 metres from the kidnap base. Police officers are only allowed to assist the rescue or kill the kidnappers from inside this 50 metres, this also means that police cannot shoot explosives from outside the kidnap zone in order to gain access to the kidnap base.
    5. You cannot fly around in planes, helicopters or any other air vehicles with plates to cover yourself. The kidnapping can be in a vehicle or base, but not in an air vehicle.
    6. Has the right to self-defense and may shoot if the player being kidnapped pulls out a weapon (Only if the weapon was pulled out AFTER the kidnap starts.) If a weapon was already in the victim's hand before the kidnap command was utilized, you must follow the warning system specified in section VII.
    7. The kidnapped player has the right to self-defense and may shoot and kill the Kidnapper.
    8. Upon your kidnap being over, you MUST officially call it over by using the command /kidnapover. Failing to call the kidnap over can lead to being killed by police officers that believe you are still kidnapping. Being killed for such reason is considered your fault and CAN lead to punishments for not following the FearRP system specified in section I. Some examples of when your kidnap would be over include but are NOT limited to the following:
      1. Receiving a ransom.
      2. Hostage running away.
    9. If a Kidnapper must use the warning system on a hostage, then at least one of the warnings must be in AREA or WORLD chat. The rest of the warnings can be in Voice Chat, AREA, and/or WORLD chat.
    10. The kidnapper MUST use the kidnap command on the player they're attempting to kidnap.
    11. When responding to a hostage situation, the police officers must use the /rescue command. When a rescue is called, any officer within 50 m of the kidnap base is now KOSable to the kidnapper and vice versa. Rescuing officers may raid the kidnap base or vehicle to get to the kidnapped victim. Note: The rescuing officers must only raid the minimum amount needed to retrieve the kidnapped player. Excessive raiding during a hostage event may result in player punishment. You may however destroy multiple plates.
    12. Police can only end their rescues if they must leave or the kidnap is over, this is to prevent abusing /rescueover to re-position.
    13. During an active rescue, Police in the area are KoSable if they are in proper uniform.
      1. This is to prevent police from running around, giving info, hiding nearby and calling rescue when they got an unfair advantage.
      2. Note: This applies ONLY to active Police rescues.
    14. Kidnappers may also be paid the ransom by another player before releasing the hostages. Once this is done the kidnapping must be declared over using the command /kidnapover and there can be no shooting from the police force.
    15. Upon kidnapping somebody, you MUST accept a ransom. Simply kidnapping somebody and refusing a ransom WILL lead to punishments.
    16. You must call over if failing an on-going chase. This typically means that if the kidnapped player has left your sight for 5 minutes, then you MUST call the kidnap over.
    17. Kidnappers may NOT kill hostages, unless the hostage attempts to run away or kill the Kidnapper. Kidnappers are NOT required to feed, heal or assist their hostage whilst in their custody. If the hostage attempts to run away, you MUST follow the warning system which is specified in section VII.
    18. The maximum ransom amount you may demand during a kidnap is the following:
      1. The maximum for random players is 3,000 bamboo.
      2. The maximum for Police Chief's is 3,500 bamboo.
      3. The maximum for Police Deputy's is 4,500 bamboo.
      4. The maximum for Police Captain's is 6,000 bamboo.
      5. The maximum for Mayors is 7,000 bamboo.
    19. Kidnappers cannot come back to the area around the kidnapping if they die until the kidnapping is officially over.
    20. During a kidnap, kidnappers MUST remain within 50 meters of the kidnapping base for as long as the hostage remains inside of it.
      1. If the kidnapping is not taking place at a base and the hostage runs away, the kidnappers must actively try to re-capture the hostage.
      2. If a hostage is placed inside of a base, the kidnappers must remain inside the kidnapping base or stay within 50 m of it, while still being prohibited from entering any other structures during that time.

    3. Bodyguards cannot kill police officers actively responding to kidnaps actively being rescued without participating in the RP event or vice versa, all kidnap and raid zone rules apply to the bodyguard role as well.
    4. If a Bodyguard took part in their client's event, they may only KOS the killer of their client for up to a minute after an event has ended, OR as long as they maintain a line of sight with the killer. (If a kill is justified by the latter, a video will be required in order to verify the information at hand).
    5. May KoS any unwanted intruder of the building they are protecting. The intruder must be warned FOUR times to leave the premises.
    6. The bodyguard can be KOSed in any situation where the client can also be KOSed. Note: The bodyguard is a separate entity in RP situations. Example: If a bodyguard pulls a gun during an arrest on their client, the bodyguard cannot be killed because of that.

  1. Rules: Arrests & Arrest Warrants
    1. Arrests
      1. The player must be handcuffed only after the arrest is called.
      2. Police are not allowed to use RPGs during an arrest.
      3. Once the player has been arrested and put inside a cell, their arrest warrant must be removed.

      5. Police officers must wait at least 10 minutes to arrest or ticket the same person for the same reason.
      6. Arresting players without a valid reason can result in FailRP punishments in extreme circumstances (such as arresting for illegals, when none are present, with the intention to KOS that person only).
      7. During an arrest, if a criminal runs into a base, police may raid the entrance to the base, destroying the least amount of buildables needed to get to the criminal inside. Police cannot use any explosives except precision charges during an arrest raid. The police /raid command is necessary for this event.
    2. Arrest Warrants
      1. Upon having a warrant on you, the only time you may self-defend is when a police officer has started an arrest on you, at which point you may KoS them. Meaning, you cannot go ahead and kill every single police officer you see simply because you currently have a warrant on you.
      2. When a player with a warrant is surrendering, they must announce their surrender in world chat at least once.
        1. NOTE: If a player has a warrant on them any officer by the law may arrest them.
        2. Once a surrender is declared, the player may not resist arrest or do anything to prevent officers from taking them into custody.
      3. When a player surrenders, they must be taken to a police station and be FULLY inside before the arrest can be called.

      2. You cannot search warrant two bases that has only one owner at the same time.
      3. Players must be given a reasonable amount of time to respond to any search warrants.
      4. After completing a search warrant on a base, the searching officer must declare the search warrant over.
  1. Rules: Bandit and Police Raids
    1. After the raid command is executed, the base cannot be salvaged by anyone
    2. All raids on a player made bases MUST include the dimensions/size of the base, as well as direction (north, south, east, west, across or behind) from the closest landmark (town, building, Administrator TP box, not including Player-made landmarks). Your raid description allow anyone to easily find the base without having to guess or look in a wide area.
    3. If a prefabricated building (buildings that come with the map) has multiple separate owners of different groups, you cannot raid the entire building in one /raid. (ex. If it's an apartment building with each floor owned differently, although if all floors are owned by the same group you can raid them all in one /raid). Player-built buildings may be raided in a single /raid, regardless if there are multiple owners.
    4. IMPORTANT: You must wait 3 days before raiding the same base. This also counts for groups! Even if one person in your group raided a base, the entire group CANNOT raid the same base for 3 days!
    5. Raid Zones and each side of a raid:
      1. Raiders: Once raid timer is up, Raiders are allowed to kill any player in the immediate area (around 50 meters) of the base being raided, so long as they are still attempting to break into the base. If you are shot by a raider outside of the raid zone, you are allowed to kill the raider. However, if you are shot in the raid zone and you are not a defender, you cannot defend yourself.
        1. If you are raiding a base, you must stay within 30 meters of the raid building destroying parts of the base, in order to show that you are actively raiding. Failure to follow the rule shows that a kill zone is being created and the raider has no intent to raid, just kill. Raiders must end the raid if they leave the raid zone area listed above.
        2. You must start the raid from outside the base. You cannot start the raid while inside the base.
        3. You MAY NOT place anything besides metal plates and window plates (one way plates, and bullet proof plates) in and/or on the base you are raiding. Note: You cannot build a base and hide in it while raiding a base with the intention of circumventing this rule to not allow defenders to raid your building.
      2. Defenders: Defenders consist of Base Owners as well as Police/Swat Officers. Defenders are allowed to only kill the raiders unless a random player is caught in a raid zone which makes the defenders unaware whether he is a raider or a civilian, this is considered as being caught in a crossfire and is not counted as KoS.
        1. Bandit Raids: General Rules for all Defenders
          1. Defenders should be around 50 meters of the base to be allowed to defend it. This is to prevent players from taking advantage of the 2-minute cooldown or engage in cross-map sniping.
          2. Defenders cannot come back after being killed, however, Police can. Note: If a police member owns in any way the base being raided, they cannot come back after being killed.
          3. Defenders may destroy any raider-placed object to gain access to the base they are defending. They must not damage anything but the plates. They cannot use any explosive weapon or item. (Ex. Detonators and Charges). Armor-penetrating guns such as the Dragonfang are fine.
        2. Bandit Raids: Specific Rules for Police Officers
          1. If an Officer in uniform is seen near the base (~50 meters), they may be killed by raiders as they are considered to be defending the base.
        3. Police Raids: Players MAY DENY a search of their base by Police.
          1. During a Police raid, officers of all ranks must take screenshots of the raided base along with any illegal/controlled substances found in the property. A screenshot of the outside of the base must also be taken.
          2. Only base-owners (group) are allowed to defend the base.
          3. Police can only destroy what they need to get rid of the illegal items. They cannot destroy the entire base.
      3. If ALL the players participating in the raid have died, the raid is considered OVER. If any raid member has died during the raid he CANNOT come back unless all participating raiders have called their raid over. Police may come back after being killed.
        1. You CANNOT place a bed near the base you're raiding.
      4. If you have destroyed their beds, the owner(s) can still reclaim their base. Note: After the raid is over, the surviving raiders are allowed to stay in the base for 10 minutes to pick up loot and so on. Base owners CANNOT tell surviving raiders to leave until the 10 minutes are over.
      5. When you've raided a player-built base you CANNOT claim the base as yours! The base will forever be owned by the person who has built it.
      6. Any bases that contain a prefabricated building may be claimed, but only when ALL player placed objects (small barricades like plates, lights, placards, & signs don't need to be destroyed) are destroyed in a valid raid. If an object is hidden from view, it does not count.
      7. Objects are counted from being hidden from view if they are but not limited to being inside cabinets, fridges, walls, under tables, inside other objects, tucked away in corners. Mod discretion will be used to determine if an object is hidden or not.
      8. Hiding lockers/storages to use for reclaiming bases is not allowed, so there is no reason in hiding weapon racks or any other storage items.
      9. The following are the ONLY roles that may call or assist a Bandit Raid:
        1. Bandit
        2. Smuggler
        3. Drug Lord
        4. Hitman
        5. Kidnapper
        6. Terrorist
        7. Mafia Boss

      11. The following roles may ASSIST BOTH types of raids. (No cooldown, must be paid to assist):
        1. Bodyguard
        2. Doctor
    6. You cannot bait raiders by going in and out of the raid zone.
  1. Rules: Police, Lawyers and Judges
    1. You may set a maximum jail time of 10 minutes.
    2. Law enforcement roles may only issue out tickets and warrants if they witness the crime. They MAY NOT use chat for this advantage. Witnesses can tell law enforcement roles if they see a crime, which the officers can then act on that without needing to witness the crime themselves.
    3. The minimum bail that MUST be given is 500 bamboo and the maximum is 5000 bamboo.
    4. Note: You must apply on our Forums to be considered for Police Deputy, Captain, Chief, as well as Judge positions.

    6. If a player has been sentenced to death, the player must be executed within a reasonable amount of time.
    7. Players with a prison sentence of 5 minutes or longer may be charged by Police Chiefs or higher. Players may choose to not go to court and instead serve their time entirely. Players cannot be forced to do attend court.
    8. If an officer is planning to raid, counter a raid, rescue, or arrest, the officer must be in proper uniform.
      1. At least 3 pieces from a set of clothes or full uniform (spec ops clothes paired with coalition clothes and/or regular police clothes is still proper uniform), must be instantly recognizable.
      2. When a officer is in /agent mode, they are exempt from using police clothing during arrests but must identify themselves as an officer.
      3. Agents must wear 3 pieces of police clothing during raids and rescues.
