0.16.1 collects everything that has changed
since 0.16.0 went live on 19 October 2026. The phone picks up blocking, hidden caller ID and money requests,
Dark World gets its first round of changes since Dirty Work arrived, housing gets a big round of fixes, and
medics and police get ready-made uniforms.
π± Phone
π« Block Numbers
Block anyone who's bothering you, from their contact, your chat with them, or the details of a
recent call.
Blocked numbers can't call or text you, send you photos, locations, money or payment requests, or add you
to a group chat
They're told it couldn't be delivered and that you may have blocked them
Their calls never show up in your recent calls, and getting a new number doesn't get them around your
block
See, add and unblock numbers in Settings βΊ Privacy βΊ Blocked numbers. You can type in any number to block
it
πΆοΈ Hide My Number
Turn on Hide my number in Settings βΊ Privacy, and the people you call see No Caller ID. Your keypad
reminds you while it's on
They can't call it back or save it from their recent calls
Businesses always see your number so they can ring you back, and your call screen reminds you when you
call one
Turn on Silence No Caller ID calls and hidden numbers can't ring you at all
πΈ Request Money in Messages
Tap the $ button in a chat and switch to Request
They get a request they can Pay or Decline, and you can cancel it while it's waiting
You both see whether it's waiting, paid, declined or cancelled as it happens, and a request can only ever
be paid once
π’ Custom Phone Numbers Work Again
The custom phone number item from the store changes the number on your phone again. Pick any free 7 digit
number, like 555-0123. The dash is optional, and numbers can't start with 0 or 1
Your new number shows straight away, with no need to relog
Your messages, call history, group chats and sent group invites come with you, and anyone with your old
number saved now has the new one
If the number is taken or already yours, or the change fails for any reason, you keep your item
π§ Phone Fixes
Losing your phone ends your call. If your phone or tablet is taken, dropped or
confiscated while you're using it, it closes and any call you're on ends. Removing someone's comms now
takes their tablet too and hangs up their call
Business call-backs work again. When a business rings you back from the mainframe after
you've placed an order, the call goes through
Your number and photos show up again. Character select shows each character's phone
number, the property auction photo picker shows your gallery, and you get a text when your car sells at
TBM
Blue photos explained. If you're on a version of FiveM where photos and videos come out
blue, the camera now tells you so. FiveM is working on an update to fix it
Phone Link. Payments and money requests no longer show up as blank messages on a paired
desktop
π Dark World
The first round of changes since Dirty Work went live, shaped by what crews ran into in
the first days.
Arrests Cost Less, and Warn You First
An arrest now takes at most 250 respect, down from 500. If it would drop you below
your tier, you keep your tier this time and get a warning instead.
πΊοΈ New Group Job Locations
Group job locations have been reworked so none of them sit next to player homes, gang hideouts
or turf safes, where guards were catching bystanders in the fighting.
Five new Stockpile Raid sites: the airport cargo hangar, the grain silos off Route 68,
the Grand Senora dish array, the Paleto Bay farm and the Ron Alternates wind farm
New Smuggling Run pickups at the Terminal docks, La Fuente Blanca, Union Grain and the
YouTool car park in Sandy Shores, and new boat handoffs on the north shore of the Alamo Sea,
off the Paleto Bay farm beach, at Procopio Beach and below Mount Gordo
A new middleman drop at the Humane Labs car park, and the Harmony middleman no longer
stands in the garage doorway
12 paid group jobs a day, up from 10
βοΈ Group Jobs
Guards fight back. Guards now spot and fight any crew member they can see instead of
standing idle
Reinforcements drive in. Stockpile Raid waves and reinforcements now arrive by car from
a few hundred metres out, shown as red blips on the map, instead of appearing on top of your crew
Smuggling Run ambushes only happen once the truck is out on the road, never in the pickup
car park
Abandon a job. The leader can abandon a quiet mode job that is already underway from the
Dark World app. Nobody is paid, anything picked up is lost and the cooldown still applies. Police mode jobs
can't be abandoned
Sunk trucks. A Smuggling Run truck that ends up in deep water ends the run instead of
leaving the crew waiting out the timer
Driving away from a Smuggling Run handoff and coming back no longer sends the waves again
Sea Run arrow. The arrow now leads to crates spilled from a sunk boat first, then the
islands, then the buyer, and says "Dropped crate", "Next island" or "Buyer" for where it's pointing
No more random failed runs. Smuggling Runs, Sea Runs and Shakedowns no longer fail
because the game briefly showed a vehicle or the debtor in the wrong place
π¦ Contracts and Arrests
Boot and dumpster drops are clearer. The job tracker says it's a boot or dumpster drop
the whole way there, you're told on arrival that there's no contact this time, and for the last 200m the
arrow at the top of the screen points straight at the car, dumpster or contact
Contract tracker only ticks off what you can hand over. Items in too poor a condition (or
of the wrong grade) are no longer ticked off, so if an item isn't ticked, it won't be accepted yet
No more instant Shakedown fails the moment the debtor appears
Smaller arrest penalty of at most 250 respect, about three quiet group jobs to earn back
Tier warning. If an arrest would drop you below your tier, you only lose respect down to
the tier line and get a warning. Get arrested again before you earn 250 respect back and you drop a tier.
The warning comes back once you're 250 above the line again
π Armoured Truck and Redzones
The armoured truck's trunk stays shut until the weld is finished, and tells you if the safe has already
been emptied
Armoured trucks are no longer written off mid-heist, and the chop shop says when a truck has been written
off instead of "already chopped"
A redzone sign-up nobody enters now closes after 30 minutes, and a new one opens shortly after at a
different redzone where possible
π Housing
π’ Enter Every Unit You Own From the Door
If you own more than one unit in the same building, the door now lists each of them ("My unit
HT-1234"). Pick one to enter it, manage it or hand out its keys
Losing one of your units in a building no longer hides your other unit there
The floating furniture IDs from /furnitureids now switch off when you leave the property
π Keys and Visitors
Removing keys at the door works again. It used to act on the first key you'd opened that
session, so removing someone could fail or take the wrong person's key
Extra keys no longer show up twice, and losing a key to one unit no longer takes away your key to
another
When a Tebex property is refunded, the previous owner's keyholders lose access too
If an interior is slow to load when you're let in, you're returned to the door instead of a black
screen, and being kicked or moved out fully clears the visit
ποΈ Interior, Garage, Furniture and Storage
Realtor edits no longer reset the interior you chose for your home
A property garage that gets moved works at its new spot straight away
Walk-in furniture no longer doubles up when the property updates while you're inside
Housing Storage now holds 1,500 items instead of 1,000
Deleted properties no longer come back after a restart, and refreshing houses before your homes have
loaded no longer hides them
Detectives with no department no longer break the building access logs
π Emergency Services and Businesses
π Ready-Made Uniforms
Medics and police can put on a complete uniform in one click from the Outfits tab at their job
changing rooms, matching the uniforms used on EU.
LSMD: EMT, Paramedic, ACP, Doctor, Surgeon, Surgeon Alternative, Lieutenant, SAR and
Weekend uniforms
LSPD and BSCO: Cadet, Cadet (Phase 4), POβCPL, SGTβSSGT, LT+ and Raid uniforms
Male and female versions of each, unlocked by rank, and the missing EMS and police pieces (including the
LSMD badges) are now in stock
Go Postal depots now sell the Go Postal and Post Op courier uniforms
π§ Fixes
MDT phone searches now find numbers typed with the dash, the way the phone shows them,
and respond faster
Call duty ends when you log out. Workers who logged out to character select stayed
counted as on duty, so customers were sent to a line nobody answered. Logging out now ends your call duty
and any call you're in, and turning duty on while your business's Calls channel is closed switches it
straight back off
