Simple Speed Radar

Hello LSPDFR players!

After searching for a simple speed radar system that fit my needs, I decided to create my own. One of my favorite radar systems was the one included with Albo1125's Traffic Policer, but with that mod no longer being maintained, I wanted something that captured the same simple experience while adding modern features and customization.

Simple Speed Radar is designed to be lightweight, easy to use, and highly configurable. It focuses on the core features most officers need without adding unnecessary complexity.

Requirements

RagePluginHook
Rage NativeUI (1.6 or newer)

Features

Fully Customizable Configuration

Customize nearly every aspect of the radar through the included INI file:

Radar window positions
Marker size
Marker color
Fast speed threshold
Lock timer duration
Enable/Disable speeding vehicle blip
Custom key bindings
Radar marker behavior
Vehicle target lock controls

Speed Detection

When a vehicle exceeds your configured speed limit, the radar can:

Display a blip on the speeding vehicle (optional)
Show the vehicle's:
- Speed
- License plate
- Vehicle model
Automatically maintain a lock for the configured amount of time or until a faster vehicle is detected

Target Lock

Need to keep tracking a specific violator?

Use the Target Lock key to manually lock onto a vehicle. While locked, the radar ignores other passing vehicles until you unlock the target.

Perfect for maintaining visual contact while initiating a traffic stop.

Moveable Radar Marker

Place the radar exactly where you want it.

Features include:

Freely move the radar marker
Improved movement controls (hold keys for faster movement)
Lock the marker in place so it stays where you positioned it
Unlock it at any time to reposition it
Reset the radar position back to your current location

In-Game Menu

No need to edit configuration files while playing.

Adjust settings directly from the in-game menu, including:

Window positions
Marker size
Fast speed threshold
Lock timer
Marker options
Radar controls

Additional Improvements

Radar only operates while you are inside a vehicle
Cleaner, modernized user interface
Improved marker movement
General code cleanup and optimization
Various bug fixes and stability improvements

Notes

I know there are many advanced speed radar systems available on LCPDFR. This mod isn't trying to replace them.

Simple Speed Radar is intended for players who want a clean, reliable, and easy-to-use radar with the essential features needed for traffic enforcement, while still offering enough customization to fit different play styles.

Credits

Some concepts and functionality were inspired by the speed radar included with Albo1125's open-source Traffic Policer project. Credit goes to Albo1125 for making portions of that project available to the community.

I am aware that there are far more advanced speed radar systems available on the site; however, this aims to be a simple to use speed radar system with basic features

This reminds me of the good old days of LCPDFR and LSPDFR. Things were much simpler but enjoyable.

Exactly how I feel lol! I love the realistic immersion when playing but sometimes I also just want simple things!

This is certainly something that I can work on and try to get implemented in the future!

I think the lock on the last vehicle would be nice as well as keeping the speed when pulled over. I will download and use it once that is implemented.

Yeah I had plans to keep their plate, speed, and model on a separate window maybe, as well as blip the vehicle!

Traffic Policer is no longer supported and hasn’t been for quite some time (last updated in 2019). As noted in the description, this actually uses some source code from Traffic Policer as Albo has actually published the source code for this reason

Great job on this! Any chance of getting an .ini file for keybinds?

My numpad is already completely used too, so the .ini for keybinds suggestion is great 👍

Sure thing! Was just getting ready to do some final testing on 1.2, but I will get a configuration file thrown together before release!

While it was not originally in the plans, if it's something you and others would like to see, I can certainly work on getting it added in!

I was only curious if it was planned really. I personally dont mind using ALPR's for that, others might like it though.

I might work on getting it added in here soon! I wanted to get some LSPDFR integration built in anyway and would be a good time to do it!

Just tested this and it's awesome!!!

Simple, intuitive, easy to use and old school for the grass roots. Love it!

One more recommendation for your next update; in your .ini, make it available to the user to move the info box on the screen to a desired location. Something like:

InfoPanelPositionX=1365

InfoPanelPositionY=660

Thank you for making this and keeping on it, this is exciting!!c 😊

Oh no I am aware that it hasn't been updated, I am just curious as to if there is any change in the code from TP and this mod is all. Or is it just a c/p of TP put into a RPH plugin.

Code is different! The one thing that I pulled from TP was the on screen text drawn and the idea of the marker (code is different for the marker).

Certainly! I just kind of overlooked this and never really thought of it! Will be added in the next update!

As others have already mentioned and I think you have responded, I am just echoing the same message. Would like to see some type of Speed Locking function, it would mainly just lock the make, model and speed of the vehicle. We can look for the vehicle on the highway, so probably no need for a blip on the map currently, unless you want to make it a enable/disable feature in the ini

Current version does feature a temporary lock for 60 seconds with a blip, locked plate, locked model, and locked speed. After 60 seconds it is dismissed back to the game to prevent from having multiple vehicles marked as persistent and causing a memory issue.

However, that being said, I’m not happy with this feature how it currently sits and am working on a different method/system.

I’ll be sure to get the description and hopefully video updated tonight that does reflect the current state of the plugin.

As far as you're not happy with this feature, I am sure you will come up with a way to bypass the current system setup. It just takes some outside-of-the-box thinking to bring that idea out of the head ya know.

I do like it kinda, but at the same time, I feel like there is stuff that is missing from this plugin that can make it even better too. But as it stands now, this will do. At least its a bit better than Prowler. Maybe a new facial look? or speed config? larger box to cover two or more lanes at a time? I'm not sure, but I'm sure there will be an upgrade to it.

I think you should make an ini file where the user can adjust the side of the bubble so it reads both lanes. I have been using it and I notice that the blue bubble is only big enough to be on one lane at a time and if try to put it in the middle, some of the ped drives far enough that the bubble does not touch it.

Adjusting the bubble side can help read both lanes and also able to place the speed box wherever the user wants to put it instead just close to the left corner.
