Inventory Theft

[shrimpsgalore]

Make it so stealing out of arrested/detained player's inventories is somehow detectable.

When a large amount of people crowds around some arrested guy, any one of them can drag an expensive gun/10k worth in oil barrels/other useful items out of the arrested person's inventory and there is absolutely no way for the player or cop to tell. Or if a cop wrongfully seizes a legal gun and doesn't return it, you can't know which cop did.

Maybe add one or multiple of the following:

-A 3 second timer to searching inventories (like how there's a restraining timer that stops when the player moves out of the way). Should make a thief have to stand right up to the player and face them for a short period of time which makes it kinda obvious. You'll see them closely following an arrested person if they're trying to steal.

-Some animation or noise that shows they're currently viewing a players inventory

-An automated message in chat that makes a player say "/me takes (item) off of someone else". It might look something like "John Smith takes Makarov PM off of someone else"

It could be possible via a /me kind of prompt, like how healing used to be. Would help cops out a lot from people who just steal their friends items out of their inventory whilst they are detained, which would also save the trouble of staff members having to ban that individual for FailRP. Would also add more roleplay and punishment for people who like to steal items. The /me would kinda be like this, “**(desc)** takes a (item) out of **(desc)**’s pocket.” (or backpack)

Would be a GREAT addition to the server.

+1 I suggested earlier I believe that many actions, which you can't see from others perspective, be seen with a /me.

That means if someone comes up to a guy and starts searching him, there is "/me Antonio Kurt searches Marco Polo"

I like this idea, I'm going to make it so your character does an animation whenever an item is taken. As well as a /me when you search them.
