APB (All Points Bulletin)

APB is a server wide alert for high wanted criminals. Everyone on the server can see APB alerts.

Police usually hunt APB targets. Police get rewards for helping capture APB suspects.

Quick summary

APB starts when a player reaches 1000 wanted points or higher
Only 3 APB targets can exist at the same time
You can check current APB targets with /apb
You can also check APB on CITPhone in Event Times (press B)

Key numbers and rules

Rule	Value
APB #1 starts at	1000 wanted points
APB #2 starts at	1100 wanted points
APB #3 starts at	1200 wanted points
Max APB targets at once	3

How APB works

A player reaches the APB threshold (1000 wanted points or higher)
Everyone gets an APB alert on screen
The alert message looks like this
"<name> posted an APB on <name>, assist in arresting them!"
Players can check the current APB targets
/apb

CITPhone Event Times (press B)

Tips

Check /apb first: It’s the fastest way to see who the APB targets are right now.
Use CITPhone when you’re moving: Press B and check Event Times if you don’t want to stop and type.
Watch the top screen alert text: If you miss it, you might not even know APB started.
If you care about stats: /qs apb shows how many times you were APB.; /qs apbjailed shows how many APBs you jailed (police stat).

Examples

A criminal hits 1000 wanted points. They become APB and everyone sees the alert.
Three criminals hit 1000, 1100, and 1200 wanted points. That fills all 3 APB slots.
You want to see who is APB right now. You type /apb or you check CITPhone Event Times.
