Allowing VR, FLIP, savepos and gotopos outside of LV

[OttoRocket-LVP]

The idea is to allow freeroamers to use those commands outside of Las Venturas. This will give the players an opportunity to just drive around, race around outside of LV.

• Using the commands should ONLY be allowed outside LV
• We should allow VR and Flip for EVERY players. (So not based upon achievements.) So that new players can enjoy LVP in the safety of SF and LS.
• We could hand out savepos and gotopos upon completing achievements.

In short I like it.

My two points of feedback/discussion would be:

• We should have anti-abuse limits on it so that it cannot be used in a fight.
• Should there be a timer on these commands?

Agreed, but I think we should think about this a little bit more.

• We have vehicle keys for these purposes. How should the commands interact with them? The commands shouldn't be available before the vehicle keys are available.

• To provoke opinions: with available vehicle keys, do we need the commands at all, except for administrator usage to repair/flip other player's vehicles?

• I think we should split off the teleportation command question to a separate project. I'm rewriting them (see #749) and there are a lot of things to revise: they're too complicated, unpredictable, and have different requirements. We need to revisit the entire system.

Hey Lith and Russell, thank you for the feedback! :-) My pov is bolted next to the questions.

• "We should have anti-abuse limits on it so that it cannot be used in a fight." --> It's only to be used outside of LV. Most fights go around ship / FC. If they manage to escape all the way to LS/SF good for them?

• "Should there be a timer on these commands?" --> I don't think so, they're outside of LV freeroaming and enjoying themselves. Why should we limit that?

• "We have vehicle keys for these purposes. How should the commands interact with them? The commands shouldn't be available before the vehicle keys are available." --> We do, but we don't use VR and FLIP right now I believe? Would be nice to have those enabled too. I do think we should allow those for all players so that new (at that point unregistered) players can enjoy the benefits of roaming around too.

• "do we need the commands at all, except for administrator usage to repair/flip other player's vehicles?" --> For some players the commands might be easier of use. Also not all laptops have a numpad, not all players have those keys registered and other keyboard layouts might make it difficult to use.

• "I think we should split off the teleportation command question to a separate project"--> Sure, I do think savepos and gotopos can be handy here for doing (and re-trying) stunt jumps for example.
