Macro Points
Macro points were introduced into the game to stop players using macros and scripts to do the work for them. To stop this, a "Routine Check" page was introduced. This page appears every so often when you go to the schools, Suicide Hill, Corner 7/11 and other similar areas.
On this page there is a randomly generated picture telling to click a number from 1 - 25 on the grid below. If you leave the page without clicking anything then you lose two macro points. If you click on the incorrect number you lose four macro points and have to click on a new number. However, if you do manage to click the correct number, you proceed to the next page and gain ten macro points.
Your macro points can go up to a maximum of 30 and go down to a minimum of 0 points. If you reach 0 points you are automatically jailed by the system for two days.
Macro Picture Problems
If you are unable to see the macro picture, then you should try the following steps:
- Make sure your browser is allowing images and your firewall isn't blocking them. If everything seems fine and it still isn't showing, go on to step 3.
- It's possible that there could be an error in your computer's registry which is stopping your browser(s) from reading the correct image headers when the image is formed with php. Try downloading and running WinSock XP.
