[TC] CityDriving – Licensing Update Q&A

What's new?

- We have added a vast number of new features, these include:
- Licenses (For Cop, Tow and Med/Res) each requiring an online test.
- Profile Badges (For teams, DJs, trainers, special awards etc.)
- A few tweaks to the towing system.

What are licenses?

- Licenses are available for Cops, Tows and Medic/Rescue unit. Everyone will need to take these tests regardless of prior experience.
- In order to acquire these licenses you must first sign up for a test.
- In-game, go to the HOME menu, click Licenses and then click on the license you wish to acquire. Follow the instructions from there.

How much does each test cost?

– Each test differs in price from €1000 - €2500. You can find out how much a test costs by driving to a Safe Zone, entering the HOME menu, followed by selecting Licenses. The price will be shown under each license type.

• COP: €2500
• TOW, MED & RES: €1000

How long do I have to complete a test?

– You must complete a test as soon as you can. There is no timeout, however you may only complete a test in one go, there is no “save and come back later”.

When do I find out the results of my test?

– As soon as your test is over, you will be instantly shown your results. This will consist of PASS or FAIL and the quantity of questions you got wrong.

Can I find out the questions I failed?

– You cannot see a copy of your test after you have completed it. [TC] Members will not discuss the results of your test with you either. We can only suggest that you revise all aspects of your role specifics prior to taking your test again.

I failed a test, when can I retake it?

- Every test has a cool-down period before you can retake it. Failure of the TOW, MED & RES test will require you to wait a 24 hour period before attempting to gain your license, whereas failing the COP test will require a 7 day period.

How long is my license valid for?

– You will be shown within the HOME > Licenses menu how long a license will be valid for along with the price of the test. At any point after obtaining your license, you may enter the HOME > Licenses menu to see the license expiration date.
Alternatively, you can use the !licenses command or check on your profile-page

Why have some players got badges on their profile with no expiration date?

– Some licenses may be issued to players permanently by [TC] Members. In most circumstances, the type of licenses will be team based licenses, achievement licenses or other role based licenses.

I am in a team, however I have no license badge on my profile! How do I get one?

– We will only currently issue a license badge to affiliate team members. To request a badge, you should either contact your Team Leader or a TC Member to put in a request for your badge.

I have completed my cop test, how come I still can't play as a cop?

– If your cop rights have been revoked, regardless of your licenses status, you will still have to participate in a training session with an official trainer. You must complete both training and the test before you can gain your cop rights back.

My license has been revoked mid-term, why?

– Administrators have the power to revoke any license at any given time if we feel you have broken rules related to that license. You may retake a test in order to gain your license back, however you will still be required to pay the administration fee for the examination. Alternatively, you may ask why your license was revoked in the “Server Administration Tasks” forum area, where an administrator will be happy to help you.

I passed my test but the license won't show up in-game, why?

The data synchronization may take up to 10 minutes. Either wait the period of time or disconnect and reconnect to the server.
