Lieutenant management

[Wilson V. Ball]

I couldn't find info on it so I am just going to ask here:
a) Can I fire a Lieutenant? Or kill? At this point I don't even care, he weirds me out. I want him gone.
b) Paying a Lieutenant with dirty money seems counterproductive. I have a Lieutenant stationed at a residence that always has money. Overflowing actually, also annoying. As soon as I send them out to deliver dirty money somewhere I get a notification that they haven't been paid. Like, you have been sitting for days on a stack of cash and doing coke, you just wanna get paid the second I send you on a job? Also: They don't take it just out of their money delivery.

I don't really care about b, as I just pay them clean now, but a is really important to me.

There are some lieutenants that can assassinate others. You just select him, choose assassionation and click on whoever you wanna kill

LTs are really badly designed. I mean they were okay until:

1) Allegiance was introduced, and with allegiance constantly dropping their salaries have to be constantly increased, to the point they start earning much more than the benefit they bring you and the only way is to kill them and replace them with someone who'd do the same job for less.

2) They made it so not only cities but smuggling points need a constant LT inside. This means in most cases their perks are irrelevant since they'll be stuck inside doing nothing most of the time.

Consequently, they made it so LTs are viewed by the player not as characters but as a disposable resource, with no distinct difference between one and another.

When you kill your LTs, just don't do it inside cities.

Yeah as I said on the other thread, you need to have a tech tree of some sort on management and character development. The upgrades should also be able to do once exp is hit, not if there is a promotion slot available.

Silent assassin, doesn't care if they do it in cities FYI.

I gotta check if my capo or one of the other lieutenants have that capability, thanks. Also, due to the fact that there are more cities and smuggling points than spots in the cartel, doesn't that technically mean I can never control the whole map? No matter how "powerful" I am?

There are 10 cities and 15 cartel spots. Meaning you can control the whole map if you so wish. You never need to control all the smuggling points anyway. Feel free to ignore the ones you don't need. Will be captured by "rival gangs" but that's irrelevant tbh.

However there's no real benefit to controlling the whole map outside of more laundering buildings. A single production chain can bring you more money than you'll know how to spend.

would be nice to add some option to pay them all in the same time
