SLR is Sahrani Life using ACE features, such as ammunition, weapons, effects and fatigue systems. It added new mines and requirements, new cars, a mayor taxation system, and more job roles over regular SL. It is based on SL 1.22 and was originally an unsanctioned copy which was unencumbered and through time had features added to it.

It predates final stat save, and has very crude hooks at best, so hence it by default has no stat save. Stat save is something the webs people (Not authorized) supposedly have, though I try to add other things by request. Regular SL's code is obscured by a set of scripts and is time consuming and error prone to disentangle, and most of it hooks unavailable scripts which it depends on for some functionality, and with that said it's safe to say (Even though I have a copy of vanilla SL 1.69f2) it's fairly useless, especially when it lacks some of the new functionality, and doesn't have what's needed for stat save, making it equally useful in that sense.

Most people don't seem to understand I need inspiration because I don't have much time lately and can't develop this all out of my head. I'm looking for work to keep myself from dieing, and so I can continue my projects, so please show your support or interest, I'm getting worn out worrying if there's good people out there who like competition.

Competing makes technical achievements happen, and is so long as greed not be involved, a good thing, so take your sides if you will, but be understanding that I'm just one guy, just like Issetea is just one guy, which is a flaw admittedly. Chicken and egg though, they ran off and I'm still here after all this time, trying to improve the image of rp-mods, but most people are just simply not participating when it's online.

I'd love to play CL but it is too hard because all that stuff is expensive and the pay is too little 10$ per 4 minutes for civs is a virtual slap in the face and just like in SLR the cops never play right. They play like they own everything and are virtual invaders. I just don't play because of that reason. SL was easier and more fun.

if you do deliveryjobs and buy all workplaces and shops you'll have a paycheck around 5-7k/5mins

and tbh IRL you need to work to to get a bit of money

Sorry, I can't help that as I don't have unencumbered (legible) SL code. What is had as us players is mostly unusable. I have what I have, but it's not enough apparently.

I want to rewrite large sections of the map to reduce the amount of objects sucking down FPS, but at the moment I can't do a whole lot dealing with personal things. The other issue iso having to work on server issues, where when I update it must be more automated. At the moment takes more than a few steps. I don't know if Issetea can keep this going for everyone; he doesn't even get enough donations for one of the two servers.

I'll work on this as much as I can, but I have stopped expecting much community involvement because no one seems to care. It's very obvious from (lack of) postings, and all the players being on the other server.

I appreciate those of you still here, and keeping this alive is possible, but it's just not at the moment possible for myself alone to compete with the others for features, and if what I do is not enough, I am sorry and I wish you the best of luck. Otherwise, you can give me ideas, but understand I cannot spend much time on this, and will be honest with you about that fact. Thank you.

I tested CL some, but it's way too unstable and there's too much lag. I like SL though, and would still play it, but nobody plays it. Is there some server status page?

I would let others help with the code or release it to other servers. It's better than the death of the mod.

I don't mind sharing.. just ask for SVN details. I can't keep this going on my own, or compete with the other. I still will work on missions, but for now it's just not possible to do much with it given the amount of support.
