Automatic Roadblocks 0.8.1

Hi 

Thanks for the temporary fix of the  modified backup unit issue. Unfortunately now while cars are now OK I am getting multiple cops with manual placement that don't go away when you remove the road blocks.

Thanks for reporting the issue.

A hotfix has been foreseen with a workaround in 0.5.4 and will be fully fixed in the near-future.

Thank you for being so quick 🙂

Seriously this plugin is one of my "must haves" in the game 🙂

Sometimes the spike strips deploys after the suspect passes, and retracts too late for pursuing units

Can slowmo be activated while using manual placement like weapon switch?

I'll check this out.  When  I request roadblock from Ultimate Backup it seems to always put the Block on the wrong road.  Like the road next to the pursuit.  I always get that Roadblock ineffective notice.  It's like, yeah no kidding, you put it on the wrong road.  Hopefully this will work better.  I want to request roadblock while in pursuit.  I probably wouldn't be interested in the manual Block but I'll explore it. 

Hello,

Firstly, thank you for your mod, it's one of my favorite lsdpfr plugins ever. Amazing work!

But there are quite a few bugs i have to report.

1. On high speed chases the roadblock takes too long to load in, you see the symbol on the gps, drive trough there but there actually isnt a roadblock yet, it only spawns after a few seconds, making them useless. Making loading times quicker somehow or make them spawn farer away on high ways would probably solve this.

2. This mod works really well in the city and actually blocks of the road, but on high ways they only cover a small area and leave a huge open space, mostly in the middle.

3. Often the cops spawned on the roadblocks are frozen and wont move or wont do anything.

4. As I said, they frequently dont move, but when they do they mostly dont pull out their gun. Either they just stand around doing nothing or they have their flashlight pulled out for some reason. On one chase the npcs even started beating the suspect up with the flashlight instead of arresting him with their guns. (If you plan to fix this you should also make sure that the roadblock npcs shoot and kill the suspect if violence is "forced on" trough the pursuit menu and only try to arrest if it's off or automatic)

Thank you

This mod is awesome. It works great with not many issues. Also, it works much better if you guys use cars with lower polygon counts or try to keep your vehicles under 20MB

Hi

Thanks for reporting the issues, I'll provide fixes for them as soon as I can.

For point 2, I'm aware of it as it's regression which has been introduced by using raytracing for detecting the road.

However, I currently don't have an idea how I can fix it as it's related only to certain highways with a different texture in the middle.

For point 3, this is already a known issue which is caused by the outfit variation in the LSPDFR config.
A workaround has already been foreseen (but not yet released).

There is something really annoying is that when spike trips is deploy, the suspect who fleeing from police have the time to pass the road block because spike trips is being deploy too late like after 10 Seconds.

Cops won't start the pursuit when the suspect bypassed the roadblock.

I'm working on this issue/have a fix for it.

The only problem now is that intersection roadblock cops also join the pursuit which i'm still trying to fix so it wasn't released in this patch.

can you  make the cars  make a u turn when you  are blocking the entered road? sometimes they get stuck

Okay cool 🙂 I'm waiting for it.

Bug: With the redirect traffic roadblock the npc that spawned was glitched and had his whole inventory equipped. He was holding his gun, police stick and little led light to redirect traffic all in the same hand

Roadblocks are mostly spawned when the suspect is already passed

the plugin is working, so far everything is fine

the files for the unit type in lspdfr/data folder (agency/inventory/backup) are read, but not the files in lspdfr/data/custom, so the officers are spawned with no eup uniform

Hi

This was indeed something I forgot when adding the officer customization feature to the plugin.

I'm currently still working on adding the custom data folder to the plugin to update the officer appearances.

Is it possible to?
Reduce Volume of radio speaking (when you dispatch a roadblock)

Keep moving the camera instead of the having cursor when opening the menu

Hi

The radio audio is played through the LSPDFR functions which don't have an option within the code to reduce the volume.

The menu itself is RageNativeUI which also doesn't have an optionto hide the mouse.

thank you for your work in this mod its great, can you maybe add a customizable vehicle file? thank you

i set the inventory text file in lspdfr/data but  cops at roadblocks are still spawned holding a flashlight in their hands and no weapons

Hi

The Flashlight is always added by the plugin, even if it's not configured in the LSPDFR data.
(I should maybe remove this as there is no good reason for the flashlight as the plugin never actually uses it)
