An update went live this morning, here are the changes!
After the first phase of weapon balancing, I have gone through every pairing of firearms to make sure there is always at least reason to choose one gun over another. Previously there were several weapons that were worse or equal to another in every variable, but costed more. This is no longer the case. The following changes are to make this happen:
- Reduced the recoil of the Spas-12
- The MP7 Grip now requires 3x25% Refined Metal and1xChunk of Polymer
- Fixed bug in the crafting mixtures of the following magazines: HK45, MP7, MP9, MP5K
- The HK45 now requires an additional piece of metal
- The Luger now requires 1x25% Refined Metal instead of 1x50% Refined Metal
- In varying amounts, reduced the recoil of the following firearms:
- FN SCAR-L
- Colt M16A4
- Famas G2
- Enfield L85 A2...

Chemical Table Update Log - 22/02/2019
After many months of hard work from the entire development team, we are pleased to announce that the Chemical Table update has been released. This is has been one of the more complex updates, stretching some of the limits of what is possible with the engine, with complex and dynamic models that can be added to and adjusted on the fly.
Chemical Table
Overview
Chemical Tables can be placed in most properties on the map, but there are specific locations inside the properties that they can be placed. Simply equip your chemical table in a property that you have keys for, and you'll be able to see where it can be placed. Each property has a limit of how many chemical tables can be placed there.
Things that can be placed on the Chemical Table:

Update Log - 26/11/2018
There will be a significant update tomorrow morning, mainly focused around helping various aspects of the server stay balanced at all levels of activity. While I'm not going to go into detail on all of the numbers that we have chosen, then general approach is to aim for low risk resulting in low reward and high risk resulting in high reward if successful. As we have only been able to test balance settings on spreadsheets, once these changes have been live for a while we can tweak them if we receive detailed and constructive criticism on how fair and balanced they are.

These events will take place on Sunday.
Halloween was a success, so be sure to free some time next Sunday for some more great events.
ONE IN THE CHAMBER (BUSINESS)
The concept is simple, you get a gun and a knife.
Your gun only has one bullet, however you gain another bullet after each kill.
Your knife is your other option, but be careful as you can only use that close range.
Stabs and shots are one hit kill, so be accurate.
