Are assets affected by any game randomization logic

payday-2

Let's say I buy the Nightclub Truck asset, which gives me a truck to pick up the cash, right behind the office where the vault is found, which helps a lot since the crew doesn't have to run the streets carrying the bags of cash.

Is there any randomization effect over this/all assets?

Let's say, in this case, the time for the truck to arrive.

Or if you buy a certain chopper to make your job easier, will the spot where arrives be the same every run or can it spawn somewhere else?

NOTE: This answer was written for an old version of the game (around update #15) and might not be accurate anymore.

Some assets are, some are not affected by random chance.

  • Blueprints,
  • insider info,
  • keys,
  • bag shortcuts,
  • additional roof access,
  • bad music,
  • extra helicopter fuel,
  • armored vehicle,
  • floodlights,
  • ammo and doctor bags and
  • shutter codes

have no random elements to them, but

  • Ace Pilot pickup location can change and
  • camera access location can change.
