Cop's Guide: shift, salary, badges

Want to bring order to Looty Bay? Well done, we need good people.

How you sign up

• Go without a mask to the Looty Bay police station and press `E` on Start Duty. The patrol car is in the station's parking lot.
• You can only join when there's a free spot. There are at most 4 cops per city. If it's full, try again the next time you enter the city or on a fresh server.
• Collect your salary (Get Salary) before End Duty, otherwise you can't start another shift.

How you earn more

• Arrests pay best. Kills pay less, and killing a surrendered or arrested robber earns you nothing.
• Ask for surrender before you shoot: arrest pays better.
• Answer backup requests: that's how you catch more robbers.
• A quarter of the salary comes in items, the rest in cash.
• Cops earn less than robbers, that's how the game is made. You play for fun and order.

Badges

Better badges unlock better gear. Each one is single-use, for one shift. The order: Sergeant → Lieutenant → Captain. Small badges can be traded at barter for a bigger one.

Cop tools

• You see the alarm markers on the map.
• You can take away the Drills from robbers and repair security panels.
• You can put up barricades on the bridges so nobody escapes.
• What you confiscate reaches you at the end of the shift.
