v0.4.0 Patch Notes | Vinewood Hills Roleplay

Medical overhaul: *first aid* (anyone) vs *complex aid* (certified EMS)
- First aid keeps someone alive, but injuries stay "patched" (limp etc.) until EMS treats them; how well it goes depends on your skill
- Complex aid fully heals and clears injuries; skill makes it faster and uses fewer supplies
EMS certifications: EMT → Paramedic → Physician, earned on the job (/emscert); shown as licences in the MDT
Hospital surgery for Physicians: surgical conditions, operating tables, surgery panel (the AI bed is a slower fallback)
New Left Alt menu: branching design with a "Medical ▸" branch (checks, tourniquet, dress wounds per body part, CPR, wake, stretcher, detox, surgery, patient chart)

Skills & levels (/skills): XP from actually doing things, tiers Untrained → Novice → Competent → Proficient → Expert → Master
Medical skills: first aid, trauma care, diagnosis, resuscitation, pharmacology, surgery, EMS driving
Fitness for everyone: running (sprint up to 10% faster), endurance (sprint longer), swimming (speed + lung capacity), strength (punches)
Mechanics skill (part quality comes later)

Alcohol, drugs and medicine have real effects, tolerance, addiction, withdrawal and overdoses, with HUD tiles
Coffee is addictive (cravings and stress)
EMS: substance checks, detox, naloxone, and prescriptions collected at the Pillbox check-in desk (shown in the MDT)
Police: breathalyser, drug swab (asks for consent), prescription check
Dispensary: budtender selling weed; roll joints and blunts, vapes, bongs, edibles

Vanilla Unicorn strip club: NPC dancers with their own prices, private dances (flirt, touch - mind the bouncer), make it rain, bar + take-away, become a regular for a discount, stress relief
Private dance panel ✅, now with a first-person camera (C cycles views)

Witnesses (RDR2-style): locals who see or hear a crime run, phone it in and describe you to the MDT (sex, mask, hat, weapon, car colour, partial plate, direction you fled)
- Night and bad weather make them worse witnesses; aim at a caller to scare them off the phone
- Self-defence isn't reported; on-duty police and EMS are exempt

Physical car keys: keys are inventory items - lose the key, lose the car; spare in the glovebox; hotwiring; /givekeys hands over the real key
Walk-in houses: story-mode houses at their real addresses
Police fleets: 127 LSPD / LSSD / SAHP vehicles from garage managers at MRPD, LSSD Davis and SAHP Grapeseed (rank-gated), with livery/extras preview
NPWD App Store: install optional phone apps per character
Admin panel redesign part 1: Housing page, player tools, saved outfits

Pockets 20 → 25 slots
G6: robbers wait out of sight with the getaway car at the roadside; protocol checks cover the whole crew (and the NPC partner) with warnings first; engine check much less strict; fleet vehicles can be returned anywhere around the depot; duffel stays on while carrying
NoPixel emergency vehicles use NoPixel's light settings and standard police siren
One dose of a drug is now enough to get high
Clothing previews show hats, glasses and earrings from the front

MDT shows the SSN on person lookups (the active MDT language still said "Personal ID")
Admin "Teleport into" for house interiors
Searching a car no longer finds keys the owner is carrying
Witnesses no longer report G6 guards fighting off robbers, and their bodies get cleaned up
