Version 1.3

Tweaked and Revised for "Hardcore RP" (WIP)

Police Guide!

Ranks and their Duties:
Besides the already standing RP Rules
Chiefs and higher may be allowed to grant permission to carry out the search/strip of a player when arrested and processed.
Deputies call for the search of a players home when through the laws, the opportunity comes.
Captains are self explanatory.

IF THERE ARE NO OFFICERS OF RANK ON THE SERVER DO NOT ASSUME YOU CAN CARRY OUT THEIR DUTIES!!
Remember, only police captains may call a police raid.
player searches and player home searches are fair, same goes for impersonations whilst officers. (until a change is made in the rules)

Clothing: MUST WEAR ALL (You are Roleplaying, So Look the part)
Police Hat
Police Top
Police Vest
Police Bottom

Chief's wear Russian Beret, Deputies wear Forest Beret, Captains wear Desert Beret.

Regular Police wearing Spec ops will be arrested for impersonation. (Swat uniform or Higher rank Uniform)

ONLY Swat may wear:
Spec ops top
spec ops bottom
spec ops vest
Spec ops beret


Before acting upon anything, permissions must be asked through the radio to higher ranking officers if they are any on. (Roleplay!!!!)

Only Officers of Rank (Chief,Deputy,Captain) can call for the searching of an individual/with warrant. (Roleplaying again)
Deputies can give other officers warrants to search a base. (Searching IS NOT RAIDING)

Searching a base: THIS IS NOT A RAID
Recommended 3 officer's, 2 for back-up, 1 to actively search the base.
Searching does not mean breaking and entering, destroying lockers or storage units.
Owner of base MUST be online
If a player refuses for his base to be searched, constitutes as reason to Police Raid-(Go to a Captain)(Roleplay man!!!)

Searching/Stripping an ARRESTED player:
Player must already be arrested and taken to a proper facility in order to process.
Stripping/Searching a player in the open can cause "vultures" to steal items.
Player must at-least be in a holding cell in order to be stripped/searched.


Police and Kidnappers:
DO NOT CALL RESCUE RIGHT AWAY, You're an officer of the law, act the part. (Roleplay, act it out)
Check with higher ranking officers about procedures, or organize yourselves as a unit before negotiation/rescue.
Develop tactics and carry them out.
MUST Advise and TELL civilians to back away from the kidnapping situation.
(recommended to, bc then they'll die in crossfire, call kos, etc...and then a simple kidnapping sit turned into an incorrect mod sit)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Robbing a player (10 mins jail time)
Placing a hit (5 mins jail time)
Pursuing a hit (10 mins jail time) adds on with murder so hit-man kills hit = 25 minutes of jail-time
Raiding (15 mins jail time) adds on time with murder. for example, raiding and killed 3 men = 60 minutes 1 hr of jail time.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bail:
100 bamboo every minute eg. 7 minutes in jail 700 bail. Max bail is 6000, even if time exceeds an hour.
Once imprisoned IF the criminal is to be stripped/searched, all non illegal items are to be returned to the player.
Meaning take all weapons/illegals, illegals are to be taken(time added).Licensed weapons are to be returned after /arrestover.

THE BAIL IS TO BE DIVIDED UP IN TWO WAYS
Either paid to the Commanding officer for distribution, or split up among those who called the arrest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Police Raid:
Only able to be announced by a Captain.
Can only be called if sufficient evidence of illegal activities and items IN base. (usually after a Search)
ONLY OFFICERS HIRED BY CAPTAIN CAN ASSIST IN RAID!!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tips and Tricks:
Always be in a pair to minimize casualties during a resisted arrest.
Never leave a cellmate alone.
Always keep doors closed in a prison or station to minimize unwanted foot traffic.
Obey your police hierarchy! They only want to help improve your time as a cop!
If person resisting arrest is shot and killed, their Total Earned Jail Time is reset.
Leaving someone cuffed after a search is seen as corrupt. So make sure to unhandcuff.
Per last rule - NO ZIPTIES.
Ignore Police Baiting and report it to a mod as it is FAIL RP.
It is FAIL RP for the cellmate to teleport (in or out).
Never arrest someone within big groups.
Remember (WHEN IN CITIES/RP TOWNS) Bandits tend to act in groups, You WILL be SHOT if arresting another bandit alone. Arrest as a unit.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Respect Pandahut Rank above all else, Group ranks come second to this.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANY AND ALL JAIL CELLS MUST BE DESTRUCTIBLE SO BANDITS CAN BREAK OTHER BANDITS OUT
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Best Way To Securely and Safely Arrest a player and carry out processing of said player.

3 Arresting officers call arrest.
1st warning to follow instructions/hands up arrest in global chat (can be said by any of the three officers).

Cuffs DIRECTLY after.

Immediate transport to station.

Officer who cuffed + Extra go and bring Crim to jail cell.

Remaining officer watches the main entrance/station.

Officers in Cell, One checks the player for any and all weapons.

Prisoner drops ALL weapons.(If the arrest is for unlicensed weapons, Have a strip search (when given permission by ranked officer) as well. Crim IS STILL CUFFED.

After all illegal items and weapons are taken by the CUFFER. The Officer who cuffed the Crim will uncuff crim.

Extra Officer will have his weapon trained on the Crim.

Have the Crim EAT after collecting illegal items and crim picks up own legal items. (NO WEAPONS ALLOWED ON CRIM)

Hands up, Cuff the Crim.

NOW you calculate the time. Calculate Bail using the guide.

Start the time, Extra officer goes outside to where the third officer was and they both guard the Crim/Station.

THE OFFICER WHO CUFFED THE CRIM stays in Jail cell with the Crim, and watches the Crim for attempt escapes, communications, etc.
This officer may leave the jail cell of-course if the time for the Crim is more than 5 minutes, and they may patrol the station together.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are an officer of rank and another officer disobeys a direct order, pm a mod reporting the player, mod will then investigate. and punish if the fail rp or incorrect cop persists. Remember, keep the RP flowing.

Now if an officer is obviously acting corruptly, take the in-game actions as officers of the law and carry out the law. I believe that an officer has 1 strike, they can get arrested once. After that one time, if they commit another crime and are arrested for it, a staff member will strip them off their duties. PM a mod for this.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Change the Rank names to something that makes sense.

Police officer--Police officer
Chief-------------Sergeant
deputy-----------Captain
captain-----------Major
SWAT is SWAT
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Perhaps add one more police rank. That being the Chief. Not applied for but voted for,
Similar in strength to that of a Mayor, except The CHIEF is head of Police, and Mayor is the head of all citizens.
When there is no mayor, a sate of Martial Law is set and the CHIEF of police rules the server. (if this is approved more info will be given in a separate post)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit and change the donator police kits to be allowed when higher ranks:
my suggestion is to just give them access to the sniper kit, seeing as they already are given rifles. so /kit police sniper as a ranked officer when a donator should be possible and easy to include

Remove Spec ops gear from the Captain, add Berets as mentioned above to the Ranks, in order to distinguish them.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Granting Mayors the power to edit or amend them whilst in office. must make post on forums in order to do this.
Voting post for a change of law? Must already be in compliance with RP Rules. NO RULE BREAKING CHANGES
Moment the Mayor resigns or a change of power occurs, THE LAWS revert back to how they were before. This way The Laws stay consistent.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THIS IS STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS PLEASE POST YOUR COMMENTS AND OR SUGGESTIONS!!!!!

Some officers on 13 have been arresting players for having a stealy wheelies, in my opinion, SW's should be illegal unless you are a mechanic, and or have permission from a higher ranked officer to use one in order to repossess a stolen vehicle.

I can't wear specs ops as a reg cop wtf

This has been answered in past iterations of the the guide, remember that this is a work in progress.

If you are a police officer you are not a SWAT officer, so do not wear their uniform, get it?

GET ACCESS TO CUSTOM KITS & COMMANDS!
