This is my opinion too. A 5 to 15 second cool-down would be appropriate. This way I am constantly thinking of creating an alt to steal back from these quick-looting guards. Besides hwere do those goods go? They are effectively out of game although still there. When I die in random encounter with NPC-s I know wasteland reclaimed goods into which someone invested their time, a pure loss for wasteland economy. But in public area... come on. Chef of police should hold auctions for reclaimed goods, just like in real life or transfer those to most favored merchant of the city.
Those are all good ideas, albeit probably very hard to implement. With that said, I don't know jack shit about game developing, but it sounds complex Smiley
awww come on... in classic Fallout there were no looting guards, so they must have implemented this one... I understand that the guard loots the body of someone, whom he has shot, but why is he looting someone he didnt kill? When you try this for example in wasteland (to loot corpse killed by guards) they shoot at you... but if they do the same to you, you can do nothing...
