New Life Rule

New Life Rule (NLR)

Definition:
When your character is downed and respawns at the hospital, you must not recall any events leading up to being incapacitated.

Respawn Restrictions:

• Emergency Services En Route:
  You may not respawn if emergency services are already responding to your location.

• Active Scene:
  You may not respawn if the initiating party or any relevant participants of the scene are still present.

Timing Rules:

• 5-Minute Rule:
  If you're involved in a shootout or similar scenario and no police arrive within 5 minutes of being downed, you may respawn.

  • If police arrive within this timeframe, you must remain on-scene to facilitate ongoing roleplay.

  • Police may request "angels" to revive your character for RP continuity, preventing unnecessary scene interruptions.

• 30-Minute Rule:
  After being downed (killed, 0 BPM, or having "seen the light"), you cannot return to the original scene or interact with its participants for at least 30 minutes, even if the location changes.

  • This applies universally to players, PD, EMS, civilians, and gangs.

  • Even if EMS revives your character, your participation in that scene ends upon being downed.

Additional Guidelines:

• Always attempt to call for medical assistance when incapacitated.

• Drive realistically, mimicking actual driving behaviors. Avoid persistent high-speed or reckless driving unless specifically engaged in a legitimate RP scenario (e.g., active chase).
