Safer Chases (Smarter Driving for Cops) 1.5

Could you give me the RagePluginHook.log file inside your GTAV folder? That's where it says what's happening.

Works nicely.
I'd have a suggestion though. What about going a step further and letting the player toggle the AI aggressiveness? Maybe have the pursuit be on 'Safe mode' when it starts and as soon as the player hits a certain button, the AI cops should be more aggressive and attempt to stop the suspect (using the standard LSPDFR/GTA V AI). Let's say it gets out of hand or the suspect speeds away, have the player hit the button again which toggles the Safe mode again.
That'd also be useful for when the player is just a helicopter pilot (since the way it is now, there is no way to tell the AI to attempt to PIT the suspect other than do it yourself which makes the AI aggressive).

@Eddlm

That's the idea, but I didn't want to add yet another hotkey for the players to remember. Looks like its going to be more useful with a toggle.

Could it be Shift + E?

Nah, it happens quite often that there's one suspect fleeing on foot and one in a car. I sprint after the runner (which is Shift) and tackle him via Police Radio (which by default is E) which would then toggle the mode. So I know what you mean.
Maybe have Ctrl + E by default?

So my backup wasn't responding so someone told me to download the saferchases again and it fixed it for them, played a little bit, the police responded but the script didnt work, still ramming into things and crashing into cars. after a couple of chases my backup went back to the same thing, just sitting there and no responding. I'm out of ideas here, starting to get really annoyed

Alot of frame drop when in pursuit and close to other police cars, I turned off all settings except: 
;Do you want to prevent the cops from ramming the suspect?

I think it needs more optimization, I got a intel core i7-3970X and 2 gtx 980

I settled on this for an .ini and it obviously doesn't stop them from ramming suspects, but it's much less performance heavy.  I don't mind them ramming suspects either, just don't ram me.

[SETTINGS]
;How fast can cops pass by you? In KM/H.
CopMaxRelativeSpeed=20

;Do you want to be able to take primary position on the chase?
AllowTakePrimary=true

;Do you want to prevent the cops from ramming the suspect?
PreventSuspectRammings=false

;Do you want to be able to force other units to yield to you if you press the horn?
CopsYieldToPlayer=true

;Do you want the script to help cops manage traffic and pedestrians?
HelpCopsManageTraffic=false

;Do you want the game to inform you of what is this script doing in real time?
Debug=false

thanks i'll try it

Love this script, maybe for future development you could help us all solve the age old issue of:

• Pull someone over,
• Drag them out at gunpoint.
• The minute you aim a gun or god forbid, fire a weapon, all nearby traffic tries to kill you and your suspect, as well as nearby officers.

If anyone can make a script that fixes that properly then you can.

Having the same problem. It also fixed it when i deleted saferchases.

Everyone who has crashes, upload the Ragehook log. If you don't, I can't check what is causing issues and can't fix anything, people.

I had 2 crashes as well... But for some reason when it does it my RPH log does not LOG it in..  there seems to be missing data

Are you going to update to RPH 0.36?

Completely forgot that RPH scripts need to be updated when RPH is.

Yeah, give me a few hours.

When I try to load the plugin it get the error " does not have the required plugin attribute" and "ParamiterPath: Assembly path". Any idea why?

hi and thanks for a great mod but i cant use it anymore because of the upgrade, so just wanted to know if tou are going to upgrade soon .

thanks nad keep up the great work

Oh good. I am tired of the AI arriving going 90 mph after a pursuit ends with a 10-50 causing more accidents and killing themselves, suspects, and civilians. 

Eagerly awaiting the update!

Game Crashes and FPS drops ?

Eddlm, great mod bro. I can relate when the police is trying to kill me and the suspect by running me off the road, so this is great. I do however run into a issue where a pursuit starts and I call backup and the police cars will appear in the street with officers inside but the engine isn't on, no helicopter will respond nothing. Everything works fine when I take your script out though. I looked on the RPH log and didn't see any events, but I will let you take a look and see if you see anything. I have a feeling it might have something to do with Traffic Police mod but I'm not sure because after a traffic stop assist if the suspect pull off into a pursuit, I noticed the issue starting and will not change even after starting the entire game over.

RagePluginHook.log

Same here...

I am pretty sure this was causing my game to CTD, but it never logged anything to the RagePluginHook.log so I have nothing to post. Unfortunately I had to remove the mod and the CTDs have stopped.

After a lot of testing i be leave this needs a update.

This script so cool but sadly it cripples my game performance (FPS) already when more than two police backup units are in play.

Were you getting memory crashes to desktop or just random crashes? I seem to be getting the memory error embeddeddalloc 4 error now and I'm not blaming this script I'm just at a loss for what could be causing it as it was fine in the past.

Edit: Just played for a solid 2 hours with no memory crashes after removing safer chases. Disappointing as I'd like to keep using it :/

So I've been getting the issue of the AI drivers freezing up in pursuits(Backup spawns and does nothing) and have uninstalled the mod, that fixed it. So I re-installed the mod with a fresh download and now I have the issue again. I would be grateful if this issue was looked into.

If you're using secondary callouts mod take it out. That should fix the freezing police cars during pursuits but it won't stop the memory error. I had to take it out because of that. It's a great mod, wish there was a fix to this and I have a high end PC.
