"Mick's convoy" was an example..

I'm neutral on this, not saying it's a bad suggestion but as sardarji said:

It's like /setcustomrank, why not implement /setconvoyname after X amount of Y score.

I actually like it, more customizing. :like:

We can have it like after 5k-10K CONVOY SCORE. When a player gets enough convoy score ex. 5k score we change our convoy name by /setcustomconvoyname or /setconvoyname or /myconvoyname or whatever. Its a good idea since it will encourage players to have convoy more often coz players now a days don't believe in team work aka convoy they just want to have high score and more $. Or maybe it could be a achievement and offer 500k and ability to set custom convoy name after 5k convoy score

5k convoy score = 500k + /setconvoyname? Like an achievement?

Why not?  Since it will encourage players to do  convoy more often and make new friends and be helpful too.....

Why not +500k it will be more encourageable that way since it would be like all other achievements

Post by: Ethan on August 29, 2014, 14:31
because not everything you gain through driving and work means you get 500k... my god.. you earn 500k after like 20 missions if you plan it well enough and have on average 25k each unload

So do you want more money :p or nothing just that cmd? But will it be a achievement or simple task?

Don't add more achievements, it just encourages achievement hunters to play, and it just ruins the game if the only reason to play is to gain achievements

Is there a way to see an average convoy score @ Server?

Or i/we could set it to 5000 convoy score?

Plus command: /setconvoyname so it works like /setconvoypass ?

Just make it so the leader has to have over 5k convoy score, only he can set the name? setconvoyname works though.

What about the message "There is a X convoy going from Y " ? should it be:

if(convoy message)
"The {convoy name} is starting from X. "?
else
X is starting convoy in Y

List a few examples of 'convoy names' for me, I don't get the point of adding convoy names and would much prefer adding club convoys or something.

Short missions, Long missions, Big dumper convoy. These are something that could be useful.
