An '''APB''' (All Points Bulletin) is an alert for a criminal who has very high [[Wanted Points]]. When an APB happens, the server shows a message and the target becomes a priority for [[police]]. Both [[cops]] and [[criminals]] can see APB alerts.
<code>APB</code> is a server wide alert for very wanted criminals. It starts at <code>1000</code> [[Wanted Points]]. The server can have up to <code>3</code> <code>APBs</code> at the same time, and each extra <code>APB</code> needs more <code>Wanted Points</code>.

APB

APB means All Points Bulletin. It marks a wanted player as a priority target for police. Both cops and criminals can see APB alerts.

How it works

APB is a server wide alert for very wanted criminals. It starts at 1000 Wanted Points. The server can have up to 3 APBs at the same time, and each extra APB needs more Wanted Points.

2nd APB 1100
3rd APB 1200

When an APB is posted, a message appears at the top of the screen saying "<name> posted an APB on <name>, assist in arresting them!"

Use /apb to see the current APB target and location. The target also gets a yellow star blip. /apb also shows whether the target is inside an AR.
