I know some minor discussion has been made about it however I think a good poker script is a huge benefit to a server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe even the option of playing with chips, versus playing with cash. Playing with cash puts the game off books however can easily be interrupted by a squad full of gunmen, who will respectfully take your cash.

Definitely rooting for this to appear in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Bulldog Ferrer Posted March 24, 2022 Followers: 1 Content Count: 145 Reputation: 175 Joined: 05/27/2021 Status: Offline Last Seen: 4 hours ago Share Posted March 24, 2022 Blackjack can realistically be played with /rnumber 13 (or the equivalent of) without the need for an extravagant script. Though a script would make it more (new) user friendly. When you develop the poker script, please make having a designated dealer a must so there's someone who controls the pace of the game and doesn't make it an OOC poker room with no IC interaction. The quality of LSRP casino scene downgraded significantly after poker script because everyone only played poker through the script and nobody played any other casino games. Casino owners didn't even bother organizing events (music, boxing, raffles et cetera) to draw players and there was little need to hire staff because you didn't need dealers for practically anything. The whole casino experience became atrocious compared to the earlier days when casino owners actually had to make an effort because they didn't have one automated script to do it all. Nearly every popular casino game except poker can be played with /rnumber (or the equivalent of) if there's a dealer and a player who both understand the basics of the game they're playing. pi fari un giuvanottu i malavita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll think of an alternative later on. Perhaps a scheme people can apply for. We'll see though. We'll encourage everyone to do whatever they desire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caporegime Posted March 24, 2022 Followers: 0 Content Count: 21 Reputation: 52 Joined: 11/24/2021 Status: Offline Last Seen: March 3 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Is there a particular reason and or script limitation that only allows the development of a poker/blackjack script as opposed to a generic script which emulates a deck of cards? I'm genuinely interested. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
