Armed Robbery

Armed Robberies, usually called ARs, are outdoor robberies at fixed spots. Criminals rob the location while police try to stop them.

ARs are different from Criminal Events. ARs start by aiming at the robbery ped. Criminal Events use /ce.

How to find and start an AR

AR means Armed Robbery. Use /arl, /gps, or the red money bag on F11 to find the active AR. Aim at the robbery ped to start it.

All Armed Robberies have a second ped you can aim at to start the robbery. /arl update pins live AR info on your screen.

AR vs CE

AR is an outdoor fixed robbery that starts by aiming at a robbery ped. CE is a public criminal event checked with /ce.

Rules and limits

Rule	Value
Anti rush when danger is under `1.2`	`120` seconds
Anti rush when danger is `1.2+`	`60` seconds
Anti rush when danger is `1.6+`	`10` seconds
Projectile cooldown	`20` seconds for `Teargas`, `Molotov`, and `Flashbang`
Return time after leaving area	`5` seconds
Disabled near AR	`/disturbance` and wanted by aiming within `200` meters

An AR will not start if a CE is in progress and less than 5 minutes have been played. AR ends after half the time if no armed robbers are alive.

Rewards

The base AR reward is $34,500 and 100g of a random drug, including Weed. If you get a kill, there is a 1 in 5 chance of 5 units of a random drug.

Payment is halved if criminals do not damage cops. A kill assist reduces the time left by 30 seconds. Kill assisters get 30% of the rewards.
