1Dear Eclipse Community,
2
3After weeks of hard work, I am proud to announce the 2.3.0 Development Update. In this update, you'll see many new and changed features to improve the general roleplay immersion, as well as create opportunities for new roleplay scenes. Without further ado;

61. Introducing - The Ability to Join Multiple Factions
7
8We've long been wanting to implement a system where our players can be a part of more than one faction. We want our players to create characters and build their character's story after their preference. For example, why shouldn't a Police Officer be able to work part-time as a Medic, or a criminal be able to sneak in and be a mechanic? Right now, you are limited to two factions, which is still better than one.

12Commands: 
13
14The only commands that are affected by this change are /(f)action and /fmute, which now requires you to input value before the message.
15
16• /(f)action [FactionID] [Message], 0 = Your first faction, 1 = Your second faction. 
17
18• /fmute [FactionID], 0 = Your first faction, 1 = Your second faction.

242. Introducing - Dead Player's Bodies
25
26This feature has been a long wanted feature from all sides of the community, and after deliberating and testing ways that this could work, we've come up with a system that suits your needs and our wants. 
27
28When a player is killed, a model of their body will spawn in their place. This body will remain on the ground for 30 minutes and can be interacted with, its inventory can be looted and wounds analyzed. Bodies can be despawned before the 30 minutes if they are carried to the Los Santos Hospital and dropped at a specific point. 
29
30Commands: 
31
32• /analysewounds will work on either alive and injured players or bodies of dead players. If you are analyzing a dead player, you must use /analysewounds false
33
34• Pressing I besides a dead player's body will open up their inventory. Any items the player had on them before death will be available in this inventory, with the exception if the player died in a No Crime Zone.
35
36 
37
382.1 Introducing - Ability to Carry & Storing Players & Bodies in Trunks
39
40In addition to introducing Dead Player's Bodies, we are also proud to introduce the ability to carry injured players, dead player's bodies and the ability to store them in your vehicle's trunk.
41
42Commands: 
43
44• /carrybody to pick up the nearest body to your player model. You are unable to carry more than 1 body at once.
45
46• /dropbody to drop the body which your character is carrying. 
47
48• /storebody to store the player's body in your vehicle's trunk. The trunk is required to be open before you can store it.
49
50• /entertrunk to manually enter the trunk of a car. The trunk is required to be open before you can enter it.
51
52• /leavetrunk to leave the trunk of the vehicle. The trunk is required to be open before you can exit it.

582.2 Introducing - Ability to Revive Injured Players & Dispose of Dead Bodies
59
60The Eclipse Roleplay Community have long wanted a feature to be able to revive injured players, and after deliberating and working around the idea of our system of carrying bodies, we're proud to announce that it's now possible for you to revive injured players. We hope that this will ease up the workload for our Los Santos Emergency Medical Services and for them to be able to spend quality time on scenes and go more in-depth with their medical roleplay.
61
62There are no commands to this system other than the commands for carrying and dropping bodies. You take the injured player inside the Los Santos Hospital and drop them at a marked point inside of the interior, upon dropping the player they will be revived. If the player you are carrying is dead, instead of reviving, their body will just be disposed of.

703. Introducing - Changes to the Firearms Permit System
71
72This is a controversial change that we've decided to push through because we want to improve the quality of roleplay in our community. In the past, you've been able to get a firearms permit and purchase legal firearms despite the character you play, you could become a serial killer, get caught, go to prison, get out from prison and still purchase a firearms permit and legal firearms, but with this change, you won't be able to.
73
74Firearms Permits will now be processed by the Los Santos Police Department's Firearms and Licensing Division. There is a list of a wide variety of requirements, both IC and OOC, that you must meet in order to qualify for a firearms license. While this change might raise disagreements/concerns, we are confident that this is the best option moving forward -- if you're building the character story of a criminal, we want you to focus on being a criminal and obtain firearms through connections and gangs.
75
76With this change, to avoid the emergency stockpiling of firearms, we have reset everyone's firearms licenses and you will now need to re-apply for a firearms license with the Los Santos Police Department. We hope that you can understand and respect this choice, and why we changed it. We are not trying to run a GTA Online community, we're running a roleplay community and we strive for realism and immersion.
77
78Each gun that you purchase from a gun store will now come with a serial number will be used by the police to track the owner of the gun, where and when it was purchased, and to report the gun stolen. Guns imported by illegal factions will not come with a serial number.

864. Introducing - General Immersion Changes
87
884.1 Weapon Drawing Animations
89
90Each weapon (gun) now has a drawing animation to delay the drawing process.
91
924.2 Crosshair Removal
93
94Crosshairs for weapons have been removed as we find the crosshair being an out of character guide to aiming. We ask our player base to play fair and adapt to this immersion change like everyone else.

97
984.3 Faction Properties & Ability to have multiple builders.
99
100Faction Leaders can now attach their property to their faction and edit permissions for groups/branches to manage the property, access the property and to build in the property. This will allow for more than one person to build in the property, which is a good immersion change. 
101
102(Property being the properties that you can purchase, e.g. the Irish Tavern is a property).
103
104Commands:
105
106• The permissions are edited in the F4 menu by faction leaders.
107
108• /attachFaction and /deattachFaction [FactionID] to attach and deattach [FactionID] properties to/from factions. Can only be used by the property owner.
109 
110
1114.4Ability to Open Vehicle Doors, Trunk & Hood.
112
113This is another wanted feature by the Eclipse Roleplay Community. By simply pressing O when you're standing beside a vehicle that is unlocked, you can open its doors/hood and/or trunk.
114

116
1174.5 Ability to Transfer Vehicles
118
119We've had a lot of requests to implement a system where you can transfer a vehicle for free to another player without using the car markets and risk your car being taken by another player. This command does not give you a price input, so if you use this for your vehicle sales, then you must remember that you are not protected by any scamming rules as they do not exist.
120
121Commands:
122
123• /TransferVehicle [Receiver] [LicensePlate] to send a transfer request.
124
125• /acceptTransfer [LicensePlate] to accept the transfer request.
126
127 
128
129RULE CHANGES
130
131We are also proud to announce some changes to our server rules. One rule that is being eliminated is Killing on Sight, we will no longer allow players to attack one another without engaging in roleplay beforehand, so Killing on Sight as you knew it before, no longer exists. We're also adding a rule which removes the new player protection for new players that deliberately insert themselves into or start active crime scenes. We're also adding a rule to prison breaks that all prison breaks will now require approval from a Moderator+ who will spectate the event and make sure that it consists of quality role-play, proper planning and that there's sufficient law enforcement to handle the prison break. 
132
133The rule changes go into effect immediately.
134
135 
136
137OLD:
138    Kill on Sight (KoS) is the act of killing a player with no engagement in roleplay. 
139    The person who has KoS rights must have evidence prior to committing the kill.

148    with roleplay, only within 3 hours of:
149
150    • Severe hostile or criminal action is taken against you, 
151    e.g. someone is robbing you at gunpoint. (Excluding police aiming a gun at you.)
152    • Someone is attempting to take your life.
153    • Someone is attempting to take the life of your close friend or ally, or if you have witnessed it happen.

162 
163
164OLD:    
165    ● Players cannot steal from players with “NEW PLAYER” above their head unless it is in retaliation.
166
167CURRENT: 
168    ● Players cannot steal from players with “NEW PLAYER” above their head unless it is in retaliation.
169    ● Players with the (( NEW PLAYER )) tag that deliberately insert themselves into or start active crime scenes 
170    lose their new player protection during those illegal activities.

173ENDING STATEMENT
174
175We would like to thank everyone in the community for their patience, it's been a really long journey for us and a stressful one, and it's not over here. We understand that a lot of sides of the community want to have development done and we're slowly getting there, but we have to prioritize requests that will improve the general quality of life and roleplay.
176
177We've tested this update as much as we could, but obviously, it's going to be different when there are 200+ players on the server. If you experience any bugs after this update, please make sure that you create bug reports so that they can be fixed in a timely manner.
