TOPIC: [SSRP] SWAT Improvements

Introduction

The SWAT Job has been in ZARP longer than most of us have been around. Added early on as a benefit for purchasing VIP, the SWAT Job has been a filler job that has really provided no strategic support to the police force. In a Community where we strive to offer the best experience, why not make SWAT Worthwhile, but not broken? Through this suggestion I hope to improve the SWAT Experience for everyone on the server, offer strategy to the job and police force, and add a bit more realism to the job.




Differences

The Difference between SWAT and any other Police Job, simply put, is the player model, and one costs money, the other doesn't. We need to add some benefits to this job to not only strengthen the police force, the role-play, realism, but as well as add some extra "oomf" to buying VIP if you're interested in playing as this job.




New Changes

These new additions with the Riot Shield, Smoke Grenade, and Door Charges, will allow the SWAT to be a more STRATEGIC force in game and on the police force. These items, similar to the MP5, will not be holsterable or dropable by the SWAT Job so as to not interfere with the economy.

Door Charges

The SWATs will now be able to use Door Charges to break open doors only. These will not be applicable to fading doors. They have battering rams, but they're a bit clumsy and bulky at times when trying to use them in game and to give SWATs a Cheap yet effective item, a door charge is both strategic and makes sense.

RIOT Shield

This, also a major strategic boost to the SWAT Job! Riot Shields are in game currently but few possess them and are rarely used. SWATs could use these in multiple situations. Anywhere from PD Raids, to base raids, vault raids, and more.
