   - Completes article-based scent identification for aimed world objects, active-pursuit articles, nearby single-owner articles, people and recently occupied vehicles; ambiguous or ownerless articles are rejected instead of assigning the wrong track.

   - Adds a physical track-direction indication before movement and after route reacquisition, including the K9's body line, cardinal direction, heading and incident-log entry.

   - Adds separate K9 Hold Perimeter and Contain Suspect commands. The former patrols a handler-centered ring; the latter maintains a moving non-bite containment ring around an identified suspect, with both reducing radius while retaining an attached working leash.

   - Extends automatic pursuit integration to native LSPDFR pursuits in addition to PR/STP, assigns vehicle-bailout scent and starts the recorded trail automatically when a deployed K9 is available.

   - Adds handler-down protection: the K9 emergency-deploys from the vehicle, engages only an immediate non-officer attacker, otherwise guards and barks beside the handler, and requests medical service when a compatible provider is available.

   - Keeps apprehension a separate aimed command during scent tracking and containment, and preserves restrained/surrendered/officer safety interlocks.

   - Services push-to-talk and recognized-command queues during interactive academy prompts, allowing the displayed SIT, DOWN, STAY, RECALL, SEARCH, TRACK, APPREHEND, GUARD and RELEASE commands to advance training without also pressing Y.

   - Guarantees healthy, trained Elite Bond teams an immediate response from 80 confidence upward; a Level 5 handler at 100 trust and 83 confidence no longer rolls random hesitation.

   - Decodes PR 1.0.0.5's generated `SearchItem.Value` field so Rex reads the populated inventory that the officer search later displays instead of reporting it unavailable.

   - Preserves PR's structured `DrugType`/weapon metadata, covering catalog descriptions that do not name their odor directly (including burnt-spoon heroin, blotter-paper LSD, morphine, Adderall and Ritalin entries).

   - Recognizes PCP/phencyclidine as a narcotics odor.

   - Classifies multiple odors in the same PR inventory and expands matching across PR/GTA drugs, firearms, ammunition, melee weapons, launchers, explosives and explosive components while excluding replicas, permits and manuals.

   - Keeps every normal field command callable while a leash exists, releases apprehension/fetch based on the rope itself, and stops rapid follow-task restarts that could leave the K9 stationary beside the handler.

   - Accepts routine attached-leash commands deterministically and renders the hand-to-collar rope without entity-binding physics that could freeze K9 navigation.

   - Advances leashed scent tracking in short handler-relative lead steps and retains the current trail point until the handler walks forward.

   - Retains the complete v0.22.11 Glass Tactical HUD, portrait loader, kennel defaults/editor, CDF/Nexus bridge, and progressive training systems.

   - Generates each target's PR search inventory once through a compatible public PR initializer when exposed, then retains that same PR-owned inventory for Rex and the officer search.

   - Uses strict `ItemName`/`DisplayName` extraction from CDF when PR search items have not yet been generated, preventing pre-search drug/firearm false negatives without reintroducing schema/category explosive false positives.

   - Treats unavailable inventory as inconclusive—not as a negative indication—and records neither a positive nor negative K9 result.

   - Refreshes PR's authoritative item list after the officer physically searches, then publishes the discovered-item narrative to the active NexusMDT report.

   - Keeps search, scent and tracking commands available on a longer working leash; apprehension and fetch still release it automatically.

   - Pins the visible leash endpoint to the handler's left hand and the K9 collar while the rope is active.

   - Exposes all 13 Belgian Malinois textures and bundles matching portraits 4–12 in the established `Plugins\\LSPDFR\\AdvancedK9\\Portraits` location.

   - Removes the human-skeleton animation from petting; the handler kneels while the K9 remains in a native animal seated idle, preventing body contortion.

   - Adds selectable circular or square HUD portrait framing, with the approved circular portrait as the default.

   - Removes the artificial HUD safe-zone gap and permits live dragging to the actual screen edges while retaining resolution-aware bounds.

   - Separates handler bond from K9 confidence and persists confidence per profile.

   - Makes elite-bond, high-confidence, properly certified K9s respond immediately and reliably to operational commands.

   - Restricts meaningful hesitation to commands still being learned, poor bond/confidence, exhaustion, hunger, dehydration or injury.

   - Replaces percentage training jumps with persistent requirements of 100, 250, 450, 800 and 1,200 XP for Levels 1–5.

   - Requires 250 XP independently for narcotics, explosives and weapons certifications.

   - Awards 0–10 XP at Levels 1–2, 0–20 XP at Levels 3–4 and 0–30 XP at Level 5, capped by session performance; specialty sessions award up to 20 XP.

   - Randomizes obedience drill order, agility direction/spacing, scent placement, tracking turns/distances and apprehension-suspect placement.

   - Adds instructional command wording and interactive handler prompts throughout academy sessions.

   - Migrates existing percentage progress into the new XP requirements without discarding completed certifications.

   - Makes the approved compact Glass Tactical concept the exact default/reset HUD layout: smoked-charcoal card, cyan frame, portrait at left, name/status, real health and stamina meters, upper-right paw, divider and compact command/distance/behavior row.

   - Bundles original 256×256 HUD portraits for every built-in dog breed plus separate German Shepherd, Belgian Malinois and Doberman coat choices, including the all-black Malinois.

   - Standardizes every bundled portrait to the same centered tactical-vest composition, smoked background and single cyan Glass Tactical ring used by the approved Malinois design.

   - Resolves portraits through custom profile override, profile name, exact breed/coat/vest/texture, breed/model coat, model, breed and generic fallback, refreshing the cached texture only after an appearance or profile change.

   - Preserves all HUD editing, scaling, opacity, anchoring and per-field visibility controls so the approved design is the starting point rather than a forced layout.

   - Corrects the CDF integration false positive that caused unrelated vehicles to indicate explosives.

   - Reads the actual item names from PR `SearchItemsAPI`, matching the list later displayed by the regular officer vehicle/person search.

   - Stops flattening CDF vehicle/person database records; empty category, permit, schema and metadata properties can no longer become K9 odors.

   - Accepts CDF contents only when the record exposes an explicitly named search/inventory collection.

   - Correctly supplies NexusMDT's active call/report number to `AppendIncidentNote` instead of passing note text as the number.

   - Retains the exact PR item list after a K9 sniff, waits for PR to confirm the officer search, and then appends the discovered items to the active Nexus report.

   - Keeps report reconciliation pending for up to 15 minutes when the report has not been opened yet, with a throttled two-second retry and no guessed report IDs.

   - Links the exact ped or vehicle to the shared PR/CDF record and reads PR's generated search-item list as the authoritative contents exposed by the installed public APIs.

   - Adds protocol v2 request/response provenance so logs identify `CDF.Items` or the PR search-items fallback.

   - Publishes completed positive and negative K9 indications to a compatible public NexusMDT incident-note API for report writing.

   - Keeps K9 indications observational: AdvancedK9 does not reveal item names, mutate inventories, recover evidence or mark an officer search complete.

   - Leaves regular officer searches to Policing Redefined/CDF, allowing NexusMDT's existing search capture to log the same inventory.

   - Adds safe configuration switches for CDF reads and NexusMDT sharing, defaulting on when the keys are absent from an existing INI.

   - Adds one-time public API-surface diagnostics and explicit success/fallback logging without per-frame reflection or polling.

   - Does not alter or redistribute CommonDataFramework, Policing Redefined, NPCI or NexusMDT files.

   - Replaces the default positions and headings for Vespucci, Del Perro, Port of Los Santos, Davis, La Mesa, Mission Row, FIB, Vinewood, Beaver Bush Ranger, Great Ocean Highway, Fort Zancudo, Paleto Bay, Brook Trail and Sandy Shores with the finalized values exported from the in-game editor.

   - Restores accessible FIB and Brook Trail kennels using the newly supplied locations.

   - Uses the finalized saved Z and heading for all 14 edited doghouses without applying another automatic rotation or ground snap; each prop remains level.

   - Leaves Rockford Hills, LSIA and Bolingbroke at their previously approved locations.

   - Adds optional `[KennelLocations]` overrides to `AdvancedK9.ini`. Each station accepts `X,Y,Z,Heading`, allowing users to move kennels while preserving their customized INI during future updates.

   - Adds a live in-game kennel editor with station selection, mouse/WASD dragging, height and heading controls, ground snapping, player-relative placement, reset/revert and explicit INI saving.

   - Adds live HUD dragging while the HUD menu is open: hold the left mouse button or use W/A/S/D to move it, and use Q/E to resize it.

   - Automatically migrates either previously shipped v0.22.10 default set to the finalized placements while leaving genuinely customized positions untouched.

   Pasted content

   K9 behavior and handler gunfire

   • Places the deployed dog in a dedicated ADVANCEDK9 companion relationship group while maintaining friendly two-way relationships with the handler, player and police.

   • Prevents LSPDFR ambient police-combat systems from classifying the animal as a human police ped and applying incompatible combat presentation when the handler fires.

   • Blocks native shocking-event, aimed-group, flee and human gesture responses without clearing or replacing the K9's active movement task.

   • Rex now remains in his correct animal pose and continues following normally while the handler fires a weapon.

   • Gunfire protection is restored whenever the K9 is created, revived or returned from treatment.

   Leash and command handling

   • Keeps the dog mobile while leashed; the leash visual does not freeze or attach the K9 entity to the handler.

   • Maintains a retractable handler-to-collar leash length so excess rope does not continuously fall through the ground.

   • Allows every command that can safely be performed while leashed, including Follow, Heel, Sit, Down, Stay, Recall, searches, Track, Find Trail, Hold Perimeter and Contain Suspect.

   • Automatically releases the leash only for commands that require unrestricted movement, including Apprehend, Fetch, vehicle entry, carrying and veterinary care.

   • Prevents repeated leash-follow task clearing from leaving Rex standing motionless.

   Following, interiors and elevators

   • Uses handler-relative following and route recovery through doors, corridors, rooms and custom interiors instead of sending Rex toward an unreachable corner.

   • Captures the handler's walking line and uses it as the safe navigation corridor during supported movement and working states.

   • Detects elevators, teleports, floor changes and large interior transitions; Rex catches up beside the handler and immediately resumes following.

   • Preserves elevator/floor catch-up with or without the leash attached.

   • Stages vehicle exit and Door Pop through the opened rear door with an animal-safe jump to a collision-safe exterior position, preventing Rex from phasing through the vehicle body.

   Building search, tracking and recall

   • Rebuilds Building Search as a live handler-led sweep. Rex works ahead and alternates across the handler's route through doors, rooms and corridors.

   • Requires close range and clear line of sight before Rex alerts on a building-search subject, preventing false runs toward pedestrians through walls, glass or inaccessible corners.

   • Recall, Follow or another replacement command immediately cancels the current search fiber and prevents an old search point or animation from taking control again.

   • Makes Rex lead approximately 4.5–6 meters ahead during active tracking while blending scent direction with the handler's recent walking direction.

   • Paces leashed and off-leash tracking to the handler, retains each recorded scent point until Rex reaches it and prevents distant trail-point skipping or corner fixation.

   Injury, first aid and carrying

   • Places an injured or downed K9 in a stable animal side-lying pose instead of ragdolling, standing or twisting.

   • Correctly transitions first aid from downed to stabilized condition and allows veterinary care to recognize the stabilized dog.

   • Prevents the previous loop in which veterinary care repeatedly requested first aid after first aid had already succeeded.

   • Allows the handler to carry Rex whenever he is injured or downed and keeps the dog flat in an animal-safe carried pose.

   • Restores collision, health, movement, gunfire protection and the appropriate injured or follow state after treatment or set-down.

   HUD, localization and controls

   • Corrects the HUD field toggles so Food, Water, Certifications, Trust, Training and Injury appear when enabled.

   • Adds selectable menu and voice-command localization for English, Spanish, French, Chinese, Portuguese, Russian, Thai, Turkish, Vietnamese, German, Czech, Italian, Japanese and Polish.

   • Supplies localized labels, wake words and spoken alternatives for all 49 commands, including detection, tactical, medical, vehicle and training actions.

   • Adds an in-game language selector that saves to AdvancedK9.ini and rebuilds voice recognition immediately.

   • Supports user-defined voice alternatives through [CommandPhrases] without removing built-in phrases.

   • Makes every shortcut key and modifier configurable while retaining the existing defaults; None, Off or Disabled permits modifier-free shortcuts.

   Patrol XP and confidence

   • Adds random patrol-command training rewards using base ranges of 0–10 XP at Levels 1–2, 0–20 XP at Levels 3–4 and 0–30 XP at Level 5.

   • Applies the approved 50% live-action XP markup to eligible patrol rewards.

   • Awards a separate random 1–3 confidence with a successful patrol reward; genuine hesitation or disobedience can randomly reduce confidence by 1–3.

   • Allows command farming: the first two consecutive successful uses retain full reward potential, while the third and later identical commands receive progressively smaller XP.

   • Continued nonproductive repetition can randomly remove general-training XP and 1–3 confidence, with the penalty chance increasing from the fifth repetition onward.

   • Exempts genuine active Search and Track work from repetition penalties.

   Major Feature Update - K9 now keeps up with handler when running.

   Pasted content

   # AdvancedK9 v0.23.2-beta

   AdvancedK9 v0.23.2-beta expands the working-dog experience with persistent K9 partners, improved searches and scent tracking, medical transport and rehabilitation, more reliable voice support, and corrected follow and recall behavior.

   ## New and improved

   ### Persistent K9 roster and kennels

   - Added an eight-dog roster with separately saved names, breeds, coat and equipment selections, certifications, training, trust, confidence, health, injuries, care needs, rehabilitation status, kennel assignments and deployment statistics.

   - Existing single-dog profile and trust data migrate safely into the active roster.

   - Added persistent duty, kennel and rehabilitation status for every K9.

   ### Vehicle searches and evidence

   - Added vehicle-specific sweep paths using available bumper, wheel, door, trunk, cargo and seat-area positions.

   - Added suitable fallback search paths for motorcycles, standard vehicles, utility vehicles and long-body vehicles.

   - Positive alerts now record the exact location and named vehicle zone.

   - Added temporary evidence map markers and persistent CSV evidence records.

   - Added explosive-first safety behavior with a silent indication, automatic handler-side recall, exact marker placement and close-search lockout.

   ### Scent collection and tracking

   - Added scent collection from vehicle seats, doors and handles.

   - Added scent articles from dropped clothing, weapons, blood, personal property and last-known-location scent pads.

   - Each scent source has its own quality value, further affected by age, distance, rain, vehicle travel, fatigue, training and trust.

   - Added a visible full-circle direction test at the beginning of a track.

   - Added realistic wrong-direction chances and route rechecks based on training, trust, fatigue and weather.

   - Added a strong leash-pull and body-line indication toward the selected route.

   - Water, steep terrain, traffic, railroad crossings, fences, gates, construction areas, alleys and other obstacles can affect scent quality, speed and direction checks.

   - Pursuit changes, arrests and restraints now clean up stale tracking, vehicle, containment and apprehension state.

   ### Medical evacuation and rehabilitation

   - Added stable side-lying K9 injury and carrying behavior.

   - Added emergency loading into a stopped patrol vehicle.

   - Added a drivable veterinary transport route and automatic clinic intake.

   - Added persistent staged rehabilitation with saved health and stamina recovery.

   - Certifications remain preserved during treatment and rehabilitation.

   - Added explicit veterinary clearance before a recovering K9 returns to duty.

   ### Following, running and recall

   - Reworked normal and leashed following to use one continuous handler-relative movement task.

   - Removed repeated navigation resets that caused the K9 to walk or run only a few steps before stopping.

   - The K9 now continuously runs alongside the handler and uses full canine movement speed when catching up.

   - Added measured stuck detection so navigation is repaired only when the dog has genuinely stopped moving while the handler is moving away.

   - Corrected seated recall so the K9 runs from its actual position instead of teleporting to the handler.

   - Preserved automatic catch-up after real elevators, teleports, floor changes and major interior transitions.

   - Improved leashed mobility without attaching navigation physics to the dog.

   ### AI voice and controls

   - Corrected AI transcription requests that exceeded the provider's 896-character prompt limit.

   - Voice failures no longer disable keyboard commands.

   - Packaged the required NAudio Core and Windows multimedia runtime assemblies at the GTA V root.

   - Preserved configurable keyboard shortcuts, modifiers, push-to-talk and multilingual voice-command alternatives.

   - Commands remain available while leashed when they can be performed safely.

   ### Stability and compatibility

   - Corrected the invalid GTA clock access that could terminate the controller during environment updates.

   - Improved K9 spawn and runtime assembly reliability.

   - Preserved gunfire immunity, handler safety and animal-compatible movement presentation.

   - Retained optional compatibility with Policing Redefined, Common Data Framework inventory, NexusMDT, NPCI and Stop The Ped through supported integration surfaces.

   - No third-party integration files are redistributed.

   After Rex creates an evidence marker:

   1. Open the AdvancedK9 command menu.

   2. Select Search & Detection.

   3. Choose Clear Evidence Markers.
