So I created a callout, but when I try to use the code below, the suspect blip still remains on the map.
 

        public override void Process()
        {
            base.Process();
            if (Game.IsKeyDownRightNow(System.Windows.Forms.Keys.End))
            {
                EndCallout();
            }
            if (mySuspect.IsDead || mySuspect.IsCuffed)
            {
                EndCallout();
            }
                    if (!Functions.IsPursuitStillRunning(pursuit))
                    {
                        EndCallout();
                    }
        }
        private void EndCallout()
        {
            Functions.PlayScannerAudio("ATTENTION_ALL_UNITS WE_ARE_CODE FOUR NO_FURTHER_UNITS_REQUIRED");
            Game.DisplayNotification("3dtextures", "mpgroundlogo_cops", "Dispatch", "", "We are ~g~CODE 4~s~, good job officer!");
            End();
        }
        public override void End()
        {
            if (myBlip.Exists()) myBlip.Delete();
            if (mySuspect.Exists()) mySuspect.Dismiss();
            if (myVehicle.Exists()) myVehicle.Dismiss();
            base.End();
        }

 

[LukeD 1858]

Would need to see the rest of the code to fully confirm.

 

However my guess is for whatever reason the reference in memory to that blip is lost during the runtime of your callout, which means myBlip.Delete(); is never called because the callout doesn't think it still exists.

 

I would check what you do with the blip and whatever you attach it to (if anything) to be sure.

When in doubt debug too. Add Game.LogTrivial("stuff here"); at various points in your code and see where it goes and what happens yo your blip.

[LMS 2055]

To add to what Luke said, perhaps you are creating the blip twice (or multiple times) so that you are only deleting one.

Instead of: 

myBlip = mySuspect.AttachBlip();

 

Do this: 

myBlip = new Blip(mySuspect);

 

And by the way, it's not good practice to spawn in anything in OnBeforeCalloutDisplayed. Wait to spawn it in until OnCalloutAccepted, otherwise if the user doesn't accept the callout you're spawning in a vehicle for no reason.

@PNWParksFan the blip still remains on the map.

As previously advised you should add comments throughout your code, especially things like Game.LogTrivial("Blip exists:" + myblip.Exist()); as this will allow you to see in your log file where it stops existing (and therefore help figure out why it doesn't delete.

[Xonyne88 3]

Also @PNWParksFan and you @LukeD, do I need to make a new gamefiber to use gamefiber.sleep in a callout?

Now I have this problem. I have this code. First, I can only hear CITIZENS_REPORT IN, without the actual name of the crime.
When I try to speak with the agent(press Y), nothing happens, even if I am close to him.
