Department Spawner 1.3
A ELS vehicle spawner organised by department, made becuase i wanted more control over how i spawn my vehicles instead of just one giant list.
Instead of a flat list, you pick a department first, then a vehicle. When you select one you spawn right into it in preview mode - you can browse other vehicles in the same department and cycle trough liveries with left/right before you actually comit to it. You can also toggle any extras the vehcile has (roof racks, push bars, ect) right there in the same menu.
Once your happy with it, hit Confirm and its yours. Right click if you dont want it after all and it deletes the preview car for you, no harm done.
Theres also a Upgrade menu so you can max engine/brakes/transmission/suspension/armor, toggle turbo and bulletproof tires, and repair+clean, all from the same place.
Everything is fully configurable - the departments and vehicles are just a plain xml file you can edit yourself (add/remove as much as you want, no limit on departments), and Settings.ini lets you change the menu key, spawn distance, and even the menu color.
Features:
- Organise vehicles into as many departments as you want
- Live preview before you comit - browse vehicles/liverys and toggle extras
- Confirm to keep it, right click to cancel
- Upgrade menu (engine, brakes, transmission, suspension, armor, turbo, bulletproof tires, repair)
- Fully configurable trough Departments.xml and Settings.ini
- Custamizable menu color
- Works anywhere, not tied to being on duty
Requirements:
- RAGE Plugin Hook
- RAGENativeUI
- Whatever ELS vehicle pack you want to spawn (this file doesnt include any vehicles itself, you add your own in Departments.xml)
Default key is F6 to open the menu, changeable in the ini if it conflicts with somthing else you got installed.

What's New in Version 1.3
Released
Version 1.3
- Fixed the helicopter problem: the rotors started spinning but slowed down and stoped after a few seconds, so the helicopter couldnt take off. The engine is now started and kept running for the first seconds after the vehicle spawns. Planes and boats got the same fix.
- The spawned vehicle is marked as persistent now, so the game wont clean it up or treat it like normal traffic.
- Auto Upgrade and the upgrade menu dont touch helicopters, planes and boats anymore.
If it still does not work for you, please tell me which helicopter (model name) you tried, if you where on LSPDFR duty and what other plugins you run, then I can look into it.
Note: if you update from an older version you can keep your own Departments.xml and Settings.ini, only replace DepartmentSpawner.dll.
Version 1.2
- Planes work now too, the engine starts right away so the propeller spins.
- New: Search! Its the first item in the main menu. Type part of a vehicle name (or a department) and it shows all the matches, pick one and you go straight into the preview.
- New: Auto Upgrade checkbox at the top of the preview menu. Tick it and every vehicle you preview gets fully upgraded (engine, brakes, transmission, suspension, armor and turbo). Untick it to take the upgrades off again.
- New: press F7 to respawn your last confirmed vehicle with the same livery, extras and upgrades. Its optional, you can change the key or turn it off (RespawnKey=None) in Settings.ini.
- Fixed a bug where the preview menu didnt show up anymore after using Reload Departments.xml.
- If somthing goes wrong with a game call you get a notification now, instead of the whole plugin stoping.
Version 1.1
- Helicopters work now! Before the rotors didnt spin at all when you spawned one, now the engine is on and the blades are at full speed right away (thanks for the feedback!)
- Boats spawn in the water now. It looks for deep water near you and spawns the boat there, if theres no water close by it spawns on land and you get a warning.
- Cancel now puts you back where you started the preview, so you dont end up swiming after a boat.
- Departments.xml now comes with the standard GTA V / LSPDFR vehicles allready in it (LSPD, LSSD, SAHP, FIB, NOOSE, Park Rangers, Air Support, Marine, Fire & EMS) so its plug and play, you dont need a vehicle pack anymore. You can still add your own ELS vehicles whenever you want.
