Welcome!
Hello, Dealers!
Here's everything new added to the new Uptown Kings update!
Hopefully this guide will answer all of your questions about the new update! :)
Sector C
Q1- When and How do you unlock the new Sector C?
A1- You can unlock Sector C after unlocking Downtown Area in Sector B, then unlocking the first area in Sector C (Construction site) which will be at around level 25 (dealer requirement to unlock it) consequently, you will be introduced to the new sector and will be given a free Starter hideout near the entrance tunnel (kind of like the main apartment but just a normal hideout; which can be raided) this means you'll be able to get in through the security checkpoint in the tunnel (as you are a 'resident' with paperwork)


Q2- How can you get into Sector C? (ways to enter the new sector)
A2- There are 3 ways to enter the new sector. The first is through the main entrance tunnel, which means you will be searched at the police checkpoint, and you cannot use this way during police hours because of the cop in addition to the new Cameras guarding the gate (which will call in a patrol to bust you)
Second way is through the Stink-Factory south Gate. You will need a Factory Pass key to use the gate, which is available in sector C, when entering the sector through the tunnel, go forward until the road starts to bend to the right, look to your left and you'll find a new NPC (Alexy) which sells the key for $1,000, the key also has 10 uses so you'll be able to go through the gate ten times in total. The gate is located in Stink in the construction area behind the triple garages, rather inside a small maintenance room under the train's overpass. It is also located in Sector C Factory South, if you remember where the NPC that sells the key is, just go behind him and check the buildings there, there is a small lamp over the gate.
The third and last way is through the sewer system. Yes, the existing sewer system is now updated and can take you to sector C, but there is no going back; it is only a one-way trip. First; head to the Sector C technical tunnels, it is roughly in the Desert area upnorth. Look for the Fuze box near the alley way, disable it using a Universal key (sold at Jay's Store, $200, 5 total uses) then go to the left of the tunnels, and go down the manhole into the sewer system (near the night club) then go backwards a bit until you see the Electrified gate, it should become Open and the electricity spark should have disappeared. Open the gate, and go through, you'll be put in the sewage way (the dry part) in Sector C, which is just east of the Parking Building in construction, you'll be to the left of Tower Blocks.

Q3- How can I smuggle Drugs into Sector C?
A3- There are 3 ways to do this. First is the simplest, run through the police checkpoint in the tunnel and hope for the best. Second way is using either the sewer system or the Stink-Factory South Gate to sneak into the sector (best) Third and last way is to use the new 'Laundry' service. In downtown, head to the Laundry (after unlocking sector C the door will unlock) Put your items & drugs in the cardboard box on the counter and talk to the NPC, ask for their Smuggling service, pay $200, then go to sector C (using any way you like) head to Tower Blocks, and retrieve your items & drugs. This works both ways, so you can smuggle stuff in & out of sector C using this service. They also work as an ordinary shop just like the gas station.

Q4- What is the Pawn Shop?
A4- The Pawn Shop is located in Commune area in sector C, you can buy all kinds of Valuables: Mobile phone, Bracelet, Necklace, Wrist watch, Small and Large gold bars and pitcoins. The pawn shop does NOT currently support selling valuables back for cash, while that feature should be implemented soon.

Q5- Is it normal that my clients in sector C have very low quality expectations?
A5- Yes, that is normal. They do accept low quality/purity mixes (50/50 or so) if their expectations bar is low enough.

Q6- Can the starter hideout in sector C get raided by the DEA?
A6- Yes, it can. It is considered as just another ordinary hideout.
Laundering

Q1- How does the Laundering system work?
A1- You deposit cash or valuables into one of the 6 total laundering hideouts around the ghetto, they take that money and depending on your business level it'll get laundered over time and you can press the "Payout" button to receive the laundered money. You don't receive daily money but you can receive a Maximum daily revenue that can be increased by upgrading the business, and same with the fee that can also be lowered

Q2- How do you unlock Laundering and when?
A2- After earning your first $600 by dealing, you'll get introduced to the ATMs. After you deposit a total of $2,500 into your bank account, you will receive a call from Eddie informing you about the consequences of depositing unregistered illegal money directly into the ATM, and the Deposit option will be locked and you won't be able to deposit this way anylonger. Then, after earning a further $1,000 from dealing, you'll be introduced to Gerard; who runs the laundering hideouts, he'll inform you about the laundering hideouts and how it works.

Laundering Business Levels: https://drugdealersimulator.wiki/Laundering_Pool

Q3- More information about laundering businesses and how laundering works
A3- When you deposit money or valuables into a laundering hideout, that cash & valuables worth in cash will be added to your *Laundering Pool* (amount of illegal money to be laundered) This money will be laundered progressively overtime, and then added to the *Laundered Money* (amount of money laundered and ready to be received) To receive the laundered money; press the green "Payout" Button. This money will also go through the Fee, which can be lowered depending on the laundering business level.
You can upgrade your laundering business by pressing the 'Upgrade' button at the bottom of your screen; provided that you have enough bank balance to afford it. You can check what the upgrade you can buy improves by Reading the new Stats it will improve, such as a higher maximum daily revenue or a lower fee (return rate).
Inventory Overhaul
Q5- Inventory Overhaul
A5- The inventory system has been completely redesigned, no longer a list but rather a more common grid design. Much better system. This also means your pockets are normal slots now, which can hold upto $5k and a kilogram of a drug. There is also no weight limit to bags, but rather just a slot limit (space)
Dealers Leveling Up & Jail Bails
Q1- Any change or additions to dealers?
A1.1- Dealers are now the main way of making money. They can level up now, upto level 10. Dealers gain XP and level up overtime by dealing with them by delivering an order or collecting cash. They can also order much higher amounts of drugs depending on their Level and if they hit a 'Crit Chance' (a low chance to double an order amount, etc, also applicable to clients) the maximum drug order recorded yet is just shy of 300 grams.


A1.2- Dealers can now be busted by the police and be sent to Jail. This is not permanent, you don't lose the dealer if they get busted. The risk of having them caught is determined by your exposition factor, dealer level and luck (RNG) They usually spend 3 days in jail or depending on the severity of their crime, and can also be bailed out for a fee (paid with bank balance) You can alternatively just wait the jail time out until they are let free.
Gang Nerf & Cash Deposit
Q1- What happened to the gangs?
A1- The gangs have been nerfed very hard. They now order way less often in smaller amounts but still pay the same amount. La ballena (cocaine gang) orders a maximum of 8x 50g bags weekly, pays $39/g, while Keiji (meth gang) orders a maximum of 50x 20g bags (frequency not sure, should also be weekly) pays $11/g.
-Please note that the current decrease in order sizes overtime is not intended (bug) should be fixed soon.

Q2- How do we collect money from the gangs now?
A2- You no longer meet and collect a cash suitcase from both gangs anymore. You now will find all your gang money in the new Deposit point in sector B, near the Pharmacy, it is marked on your map.

Q3- How do you unlock the gangs now?
A3- That remains the same as previously, unlock downtown, wait to be level 20+, receive a call and get assigned to either gang depending on your Exposition Factor (low exposition: La ballena (cocaine gang) High exposition: Keiji (meth gang))
Hideout Inventory System & Shipping/Selling
Q6- Hideout Inventory System
A6- You can now use the new Hideout inventory tab to sell equipment or furniture stored in your hideout for about 50% of the buying price, or ship (send) them to any other hideout (except main apartment) paying with bank balance.
Exposition Factor & General Risk Factor Removed
Q1- General Risk Removed
A1- The general risk factor & exposition factor have been put into only one exposition factor. The new exposition factor now takes into account your average activity during the past 3 days. Lowering it works as usual, working during police hours. DEA Raids also still work as usual.
Drug Changes
Q1- Any changes to drugs?
A1.1- AMP and Weed are now more addictive, making you able to score addicts when selling them pure early game. This also means AMP can occasionally cause Overdoses especially if sold in large amounts or to an addict.

A1.2- Heroin is now apparently slightly more deadly than before. The difference is usually unnoticeable by most players who use a proper mix to avoid overdoses. Try cutting your heroin with baking soda (75/25)
Weekend Bonus
Q3- Weekends
A3- During weekends, clients and dealers order twice as fast, twice the size, which means you'll be able to make more money faster in the two weekend days.
Weed Growing Changes
Q1- Any changes to growing weed?
A1- Yes, weed plants now take a little bit longer to fully grow and be harvested (outdoor plants take about 5 days, indoor plants not sure but about the same as previously) The plants still give the same harvest amount as previously (same wet weed grams)
Trash Containers Despawn & Loot chance
Q1- Any changes or additions to the Trash Bins?
A1- You can now interact and use all trash bins in the map. You can put any items you don't need and they will be despawned at 7am daily. They also fill up with actual garbage over time starting at midday, and there's a chance of finding valuable items amongst the garbage which can be laundered like cash.
Time Speed Changes
Q1- Any Changes to time?
A1- Time is now multiplied by 2x as previously, so time now goes by twice as fast as before.

Q2- How does that time change affect Order times and other aspects of the game?
A2- Eddie order times are now updated to be double the length as prior, but they still take the same length of time IRL.
Bushes
Q1- Bushes
A1- The new big bushes slow you down when ran into and make some noise, which can alert nearby cops. They also can be used as cover but I wouldn't recommend doing that.
Suitcases Removed
Q4- Suitcases
A4- Since you no longer collect gang cash in suitcases, they have been removed from all shops, making them unobtainable on a new game.

Oh? I honestly just thought my game was bugged until I read your guide and saw they changed it to weekly orders. Big props on the guide though, I played the game back in 2020 and have recently got back into it (40 hours deep so far) so there were some really helpful tips in here, thanks man.

That is a very old bug which hasn't been patched yet, and it indeed is helpful for the extra money :yeswesmoke:
Scuffed Flippy 11 Oct, 2022 @ 11:49am 
I found a helpful 'bug' with the La ballena gang. If you save and restart your game, they soon place an order. I've done this pretty much every in game day and they put an order in.

Appreciate you pointing it out :) fixed now :yeswesmoke:
