Make players respawn at all hospitals (Pillbox, Sandy & Paleto)

Brief Summary:

Make players respawn at more hospitals than just Pillbox.

Detailed Suggestion:

1. When respawning there could be a chance that you respawn either at Pillbox, Sandy or possibly even at Paleto Bay hospital.

OR

2. It could alternatively spawn you at one of the hospitals further away from your death to avoid any NLR issues as you atm respawn at Pillbox even if that is the place you died at.

The Pros:

- Spread people across the map, something it seems like devs are trying to do.
- Adds some variety for the player and gives life to the hospitals up north as well as gets some use out of the interiors.
- Avoid NLR issues if you spawn at one of the hospitals furthest from your death.

The Cons:

- Possibly annoying to be sent up north as most things are still down south, but then again the devs are trying to revive the north .

Does this suggestion change balance on the server ?

Not in my eyes but would love to hear if someone thinks it would.

Would also like it if police could choose to spawn at Vespucci PD, Sandy PD or Paleto PD. Would just be a nice feature to have imo.

Would love this for both Police and NHS. Could also add faction garages up there.

Stuff like this is definetly being considered, not just factions and hospitals, but in general, spreading stuff out a bit more over the map.

In the new future we will see certain things on the map move more north, and I'm sure we can add this functionality as well.

Maybe give medics also an option to spawn on those hospitals when they get into the city.

I said this the other day, I'll do it today only thing to note is do we add the South city hospital into the mix or keep it at the 3 main?

Adding South City into the mix would be pretty neat. Are ya thinking the respawn location would be random, closest to death or player chosen?

Closest to death is much better cos if a person is given a choice to respawn at any location that can cause ppl to fail rp and ezily get away with stuff they wanted to.

I was thinking, along these lines, or we could allow chosen/random auto chosen

Die Closest: Pillbox, Respawn: Paleto

Die Closest: Paleto, Respawn: Pillbox

Die Closest: Sandy, Respawn: South City

Die Closest: South City, Respawn: Sandy

Die Closest: Paleto, Respawn: Pillbox

Die Closest: Sandy, Respawn: South City

Die Closest: South City, Respawn: Sandy

Maybe just a choice of respawn options that doesn't include the nearest hospital?

I'd be quite frustrated if I died near Casino or Pillbox and had to spawn in Paleto? Would prefer the option to spawn South City

I could get behind this. Would be extra immersive if there could be some sort of text displayed on screen to say why you ended up at a certain hospital, rather than the closest one.

A few examples:

• You were successfully treated at Pillbox hospital, but due to a bed shortage you were transferred to Paleto Bay for recovery.
  
• Your injuries were too severe for the local hospital to deal with, and you were airlifted to South City for successful surgery.
  
• Your ambulance was hijacked enroute to South City hospital, and you were used as a hostage. Fortunately the police were able to apprehend your kidnappers in Sandy Shores, and you were nursed back to health by the medical team there.
  
• The leading surgeon that specialises in your wounds happened to be visiting Pillbox hospital, so you were rushed there just in the nick of time.
  

Moving thread to accepted, expect it to hit in a update soon. It will probably be a forced spawn point and not selectable like our altis life server is. At least for now, if y'all want it to change in the future to be a menu with multiple spawn points (owned houses, job spawns, hospitals) then for sure make a suggestion when we've implemented this.

EDIT: I've implemented this now! Moving thread.
