Account & spawn
How do I log in?
Account name + password in the login dialog — the same credentials as in the UCP.
Where do I spawn after login?
New players start at the LS Boardwalk (~1109, -1796). Right next to it: scooter rental (/rollermieten, $50).
Change spawn type: /spawnchange (newbie, house, hotel or faction).
Forum & UCP
With your in-game character name and password you can sign in to the UCP — no minimum level. The forum often works the same way; alternatively a separate web account with optional character link. In the UCP: account, vehicles, bank, quests, bug reports, roadmap.
Newbie chat
Command: /nc [text]. Available to all players (cooldown ~30 seconds); staff can see and moderate messages.
Typing indicator for RP
The chat bubble “typing…” is on by default. Disable with /tippt or /tippt aus, enable again with /tippt an — useful for RP at tables, phones or switches.
AFK/afk pauses payday time — you no longer count as actively online.
Hospital after death
If you die in RP (not in paintball/gangwar/jail), you are taken to the hospital in LS (All Saints General Hospital, entrance ~1182, -1325).
You are frozen for 60 seconds while doctors “treat” you. Afterwards you are released and can play again.
Medical costs: $120 (cash). Cheaper with health insurance: AOK covers half ($60), BKK covers everything ($0). Insurance: /versicherung at AOK/BKK pickups (hospital / SAMD) or via /stadthalle.
Waypoint: /navi → emergency service / hospital. Low HP on site: /healme at the hospital (separate treatment cost).
Economy & payday
How does payday work?
Every 60 minutes actively online (not AFK) you receive salary on your bank account — job pay, faction pay, taxes and insurance are settled. In-game you see “Payday!” with your level progress.
Bank
In-game at the counter: /bank (deposit, withdraw, transfer). In the UCP: statement and transfers also while offline.
City hall & insurance/stadthalle on site: ID card, unemployment benefit, health insurance (AOK/BKK).
Health insurance also directly: /versicherung or /versicherungen at AOK/BKK pickups (hospital / SAMD).
Licenses & driving school
Licenses (driving school LS, ~1892, -1599)/autoschein — car test (theory + practice, checkpoints 4 m radius)/motorradschein — motorcycle (PCJ, 6 CPs; car license required)/lkwschein — truck test (car license required)
Other licenses
Boat, flight, weapons and fishing licenses — via agencies, jobs or shops in-game. In the UCP under My account you can see your licenses.
Jobs & job skills
How do I get a job?
Get an ID at city hall, then at the job location: /join → /accept job. Waypoints: /job at the job centre (2230, -1159) or /navi. Quit: /quitjob.
Job skills in-game
Many jobs have skills (level 1–5). Check: /skill [number] (list without number). Skills increase through job activity and are saved on disconnect/payday.
Job skills in the UCP
Under My account → statistics: all job skills as level · points — state after last save (not live while you play).
Factions
Joining
Leaders invite with /invite — or apply as leader in the UCP. Faction and civilian job are mutually exclusive.
Base cars & faction dealership
LCN, Yakuza, Grove and Ballas again have base vehicles at the faction base. Leaders buy more cars via /frakhaus in LV.
Changing clothes at the base
Use /umkleide at the faction base to switch between civilian and duty clothes (incl. duty skin). Details in the Faction FAQ → “Umkleide”.
Mobile speed cameras (LSPD & Ordnungsamt)
From rank 4, police and OAMT can place mobile speed cameras: /createblitzer [km/h] [0|1] (0 = outside city, 1 = inside city). Manage: /blitzer, /editblitzer, /destroyblitzer. Cameras persist after restart; speeding uses the normal fine system (fine + Bayside points). Details in the Faction FAQ → “Mobile Blitzer”.

What is gangwar?
Gangs and organisations capture or defend territories on the map. Each territory has a territory value for the faction bank. Per zone: 3 flags + gang zone on the minimap.
