Armed Robbery

Armed Robberies, usually called ARs, are outdoor robberies at fixed spots in CIT.

Overview

Armed Robberies are public criminal activities where criminals try to complete a robbery while police try to stop them.

They are separate from Criminal Events.

The main difference is:

Armed Robbery is an outdoor robbery at a fixed spot and starts by aiming at the robbery ped
Criminal Event uses a different event flow and is checked with /ce

How It Works

To join an Armed Robbery:

Use /arl, /gps, or the red money bag on F11 to find it

Go to the AR location

Aim at the robbery ped to start

Use /arl to check the current Armed Robbery.

It shows:

The current AR
The time left
How many criminals are there
How many cops are there

Use /arl update to keep live AR info on your screen.

Danger Level

Danger Level affects Armed Robbery.

It is based on the amount of cops divided by the amount of wanted criminals online.

When cops outnumber criminals, danger goes down and robberies go faster.

When criminals outnumber cops, danger goes up and robberies go slower.

You can check Danger Level with:

/dangerlevel
CITPhone > Event Times

Cops can also check it in F5.

Use /dangerlevel update to keep Danger Level on your screen.

Anti-Rush

Anti-Rush is the delay before cops can enter the Armed Robbery.

The delay depends on Danger Level:

Below 1.2 gives 120 seconds
1.2 or higher gives 60 seconds
1.6 or higher gives 10 seconds
