    This is a repost/re-imagined version of the "Make It Rain" event I suggested a long time ago. This one will be better thought out and more specific.

    Build Round Changes:
    • All players have access to thrusters.
    Battle Round Changes:
    • Money Bags will begin appearing above the water in random locations around the maps. Money bags should have some sort of particle effect so they are easily identifiable by players.
    • Money Bags can be picked up by players by simply walking into it. Players can use thrusters and boat motors to reach the money bags.
    • Occasionally a Gold Money bag appears.
    • Normal Money Bags are worth $500. Gold Money Bags are worth 1 Token.
    • Money Bags can have a max number of bags spawned at one time depending on how many players are alive. Maximum number of bags is 3 bags with 2-4 players, 4 bags with 5-8 players, 5 bags with 9-13 players, 6 bags with 14-19 players, 7 bags with 21-26 players, and 8 bags with 27-30 players.
    • Due to the main goal is to get as many bags as possible, focus on combat will be lowered significantly. The only weapons available that everyone will have will be The Golden Gun (4 shots total), Bug Bait (3 uses), the Sledgehammer (unlimited use), and the Harpoon Gun (Unlimited use).
    • The Sledgehammer, when thrown, will cause a slight knockback upon contact with another player as well as the normal 20 hp damage.
    • After some debate, I've decided to keep water damage at the normal rate.
    Remember the main objective is to make as much money as possible by collecting money bags.

    3 flood suggestions today wow..

    This sounds like a really enjoyable gamemode. However I feel like it is slightly pay to win because only VIP/Staff are the only one that have used thrusters before. Everyone else would be left clueless and randomly ramming into walls.

    yes but at the same time if we leave it out, vips/staff will still use thrusters to get around quicker than everyone else.

    I should probably leave harpoons available now that I think about it.

    There should be a prop limit of 4 so people don't have some crazy long ass boats and so the thrusters would actually work.Overall this sounds like a great idea it's kind of like a giveaway of sorts to help the newer players out with money.

    I still believe we should scrap thrusters, even for vips and just give a free boat motor. That way players won't be zooming like fucking rocket man to the money drops and the particles from the thrusters won't lag and/or crash the entire server.

    I don't think we should remove thrusters , they aren't that easy to control and they are mostly for fun. The harpoon is there for non VIP's so I don't really see a problem with it. As for the bonus round we could just not use thrusters for it and use the boat motor instead.No need to remove them completely.

    I like this event but I like the idea of a motor instead of thrusters.
