Territories

A territory is a polygon drawn in the creator. Every gang has an influence in every territory, from 0 to Config.Territories.maxInfluence. The gang with the most influence above minOwnership owns the territory.

Ownership#

Config.Territories = {
    enabled = true,
    maxInfluence = 100.0,
    minOwnership = 25.0,
    contest = 0.5,
    decay = { interval = 60, amount = 2.0 },
    payoutInterval = 60,
}

• A gang becomes the owner as soon as it has the highest influence and at

  least minOwnership.

• The owner keeps the territory as long as nobody passes it. A tie never changes

  the owner.

• If the owner drops below minOwnership and nobody else reaches it, the

  territory becomes neutral.

When the owner changes, the gang that captured the zone receives Config.Points.zoneCaptured and the previous owner receives Config.Points.zoneLost. Every payoutInterval minutes, each owned territory gives Config.Points.zoneOwned to its owner.

Contest#

With contest = 0.5, every influence gained by a gang removes half of that amount from every other gang in the same territory. Taking a zone back from a strong owner is faster than building influence in an empty zone.

Set it to 0 to disable the contest: gangs then grow their influence independently.

Decay#

Every decay.interval minutes, every gang loses decay.amount influence in every territory. A gang that stops being active slowly loses its zones.

Influence sources#

Presence#

presence = {
    enabled = true,
    interval = 5,
    amount = 0.5,
    maxMembers = 4,
    ignoreDead = true,
},

Every interval minutes, each gang gains amount influence per member standing in a territory, counting at most maxMembers members per gang and per zone. maxMembers stops a large gang from taking a zone just by standing in it.

Kills#

kills = {
    enabled = true,
    influence = 4.0,
    victimLoss = 2.0,
    points = 5,
    rivalsOnly = true,
    zoneOnly = true,
    maxDistance = 300.0,
    cooldown = 300,
},

When a gang member kills another player:

• the zone is the one where the victim died;
• the killer's gang gains influence and points, the victim's gang loses

  victimLoss;

• with rivalsOnly, only victims from another gang count - killing civilians

  gives nothing;

• with zoneOnly, kills outside every territory give nothing at all;
• the same killer and victim only count once every cooldown seconds, so a kill

  loop cannot be farmed.

On the map#

Every territory is drawn on the minimap and the pause map with the color and the logo of its owner. On the pause map, hovering a territory shows its owner, the influence of every gang and the current drug demand.

Players can hide the territories with /gangzones or the G key on the pause map. See Configuration to restrict who sees them.
