Police
Police are a core mechanic of MCDrugs. They roam the spawn world, searching for players who have drugs. They can frisk players, which checks the player for drugs. If they have drugs, the police officer gets the drugs and the player goes to jail. You can Identify police by their dark blue armor. The lighter an officer's hat, the higher their rank. They may also be in SWAT mode, which has them wearing a black leather hat and their armor being enchanted for PVP. Any player is able to enroll into the police force once they reach the Smuggler rank with /police enroll. However breaking any police rules or found cheating while on duty will result in a permanent demotion from police and being reset to junky rank.
Police System
Police Duty
You can go on and off duty with /duty, at higher ranks you can go onto specific duty modes such as /duty sergeant. Once you reach Lieutenant you gain access to SWAT duty with /duty SWAT. While on duty you have a separate inventory than your normal one, this inventory clears when you go off duty. and when you die it also will clear your off duty inventory. It is highly recommended that you go on duty with nothing in your off duty inventory.
Duty Tips
Being seen while on duty can make it harder for you to frisk players and get their drugs. It is smarter to find places along selling routes to get a jump on players before they can react. Learning all the ins and outs of the most used selling areas will also help you cut players off who you weren't able to get the jump on.
Police Abilities
Police have access to special abilities that they can use while on duty. These can be unlocked from the ability tree by doing /ashop. Earn ability tokens to unlock these skills by ranking up as a cop. Abilities are either passive or active, you can have one of each while on duty. While on duty, police have a radio. Holding this radio and typing a message in chat will put the message into a private police chat.
