Community Discussion: Junkyard

@AC:

If we'd put everything up at only one time some people would benefit greatly and others wont.
That's not fair.

ya us poor people like me and addie and many others would watch as we got outbid, that the only thing

very true. I had a stupid moment gents

It's all good

Those ideas are nice!
Do you mean that the engine and aftermarket parts that come with the car that the BNB member sold need to run through the 'randomater' so that decides which parts 'survive' and which part do not?
Or does the Junkmaster choose? I'm thinking 'randomater'.

Depending on the number of parts on the car, the strip will be either a day till a week (just saying something)?

Keep it coming, we're getting something done here!

If you can get it to work on a randometer that would be spot on the money, and taking into consideration the 'modifications' of the car would slow down the process, I was gonna say a standard week to strip a car but you could work it as:

Bone-stock/just visual & tire modifications would be stripped in a day or two.
Minor modifications (chassis reinforcement/drivetrain/etc) day or two longer.
Full Cage cars would take the longest to breakdown.

Engines could be the same more modified the engine longer it takes to strip or just run it through a generator so x% keeps all parts the rest randomly lose parts or get completely stripped.

That seems alright.
Although I think the rollcages are welded in so those wont be able to separated, or it would take a long time.

I'll go figure something out since a week long wait is a bit long.

I was thinking this:

Car comes in, I notify everyone.
Stripping begins, I notify everyone.
Parts come up for sale, I notify everyone.
This is just for the community cars as they're fully working vehicles.

Another car comes in etc.

Same with bare shells and crashed cars.
Shell or engine comes in, I notify everyone.
Stripping and searching for useable parts done, I notify everyone.
Parts come up for sale, I notify everyone.

Just need to figure out how to make the randomiser work.

Sounds pretty good, I was thinking of it gets stripped over a period of time and if you get it quicker it has more parts on it/etc. But then it's more expensive than if it was at the end of the cycle.

haha thats awesome, you should strip unactive's peoples cars!

Only if they give permission, Michael. Otherwise whenever they come back to an empty garage and think that they're robbed. Haha.

Anyway, let's do this, Smooth!

If you give the green light I will make a complete list explaining everything.

Sounds like you have things under control TRK. If you can, send me a pm of what the thread would look like and I will make any adjustments that need be. Looking forward to adding the junkyard to our system.

Sweet! Looks like another beater is on the cards.

Yes OMG *bass drop*

here comes one of the rattiest drift cars anyones ganna see

Thats what im talking about!!!! mine will be beat to within an inch of its life and fixed with the cheapest, worn parts you can find!!! If it aint rusted, dont trust it!!

Haha, every panel is gonna be broken.

Go to random.org and put all the parts into a list. The top few or so should be the useable ones, while the rest go up for sale, go to the junkyard, etc.

You're gonna be doing a lot of notifying though.

Yep, that's what I did ;]
Works very well.

I'm setting up a list tomorrow!

Awesome TRK!!!!! If you ever need a hand around the yard let a bruvva know!!! I got PLENTY of free time at work!

Awesome!

I think if you could buy shells with no engines, it would make a market for stock engines, such as the KA24 and ps13 sr20's and so on.

they'd be super cheap, like 1000 or 2, but i think it would be good for anyone who swaps and is left with the stock
