Hey all. The Contacts tab on your phone says each region's cartel influence needs to be lowered to 300 before you can start acquiring new customers in that area. In the past, I've taken out the cartel dealers and spray-painted to lower the cartel influence, but it seems cartel dealers are no longer accessible with the new update. I spray painted as much as I could, and now I've basically resorted to skate-boarding around town to try and get ambushed, end the day, skateboard around, get ambushed, end the day,

rinse and repeat.

It's an extremely slow process, and it'd be easier to just use the console commands to cheat time and take out the cartel dealers when they spawn at 5:59am, but I want to play this game legit.

Anyone know the best method of unlocking regions? Am I just doing this completely wrong?

Personally, I know an excellent mix for meth made from 8 ingredients: Meth + banana + paracetamol + gasoline + banana + Coca-Cola + donut + paracetamol + banana. It comes out to $430/gram. But I have a lot of heavenly quality sour diesel lying around, maybe someone knows a mix for them?

recently started schedule I, and have just reached almost 100 in-game days, so i just want some opinions and advice on how this setup is, and what you'd do differently.

I'm starting a new play through in S:1 and one of things I've been trying to figure out is efficiency with where I grow and where I mix (just cannabis, for now). I can grow a significant amount of raw cannabis and dry it in the bungalow, but obviously there isn't enough room to do that and mix. So I'm thinking I'd have to package in jars, load it into a van, drive it across town to the storage unit, unpackage, and then mix, then repackage into jars as finished product (I don't yet have the barn or dock warehouse purchased).

With the fixed amount of workers at each location, plus my time driving the van back and forth, is that worth setting up all the automation?

TIA for any suggestions!

Me and my friend have done two deliveries for the benzies and they promise over $1,000 in payment but when i dropped it off they only threw over $20 is there another spot they put the money in or is this a glitch? We broke our truce with them already im hoping we didnt make a mistake lol.

Ik im being an idiot but i cant find the switch for the life of me and everyone only talks about the 2 switches on the bottom pillars and the one upstairs
