Bail & Court Flow

The bail system calculates release costs, lets you pay for early release, and lays the groundwork for courtroom gameplay later on.

Bail calculation​

  • Bail starts at 2.5x the assessed fine by default.
  • The system can scale with your level and wealth, so higher-tier players face stiffer costs.
  • In multiplayer, friends can pay bail on your behalf.

Negotiation (Planned)​

  • Planned courtroom sessions will let you argue for reduced bail during timed scenes.
  • Skills, evidence, and witness testimony will influence the outcome once the court system is live.

Bail screen​

  • The bail screen shows your current amount, payment options, and real-time adjustments as time passes.
  • If the amount changes, it will update on the same screen automatically.

Tips​

  • If bail feels too high or low, adjust the multiplier in the configuration page.
