what Functions.IsPedVisualLostLonger(Rage.Ped) function does?

If you want to learn more about functions, you can use the XML documentation which you can find here linked below. In your specific case, the function "Gets a value indicating whether visual has been lost for a moment and the last known position is being searched."

 

 

is there a function to get a value indicating whether the search (black X icon of last known position of  the suspect on minimap) is started?

That is exactly what this does!

so i can put it in a "IF" condition to trigger a hasvisualchanged Event? cause i've already tried but the event is triggered when the red blip start to blink to disappear, and not when the X appear

If the second argument of OnPursuitPedHasVisualChanged is false, it means visual has been lost for a while and units are searching.

 private static void Events_OnPedArrested(Ped suspect, Ped arrestingOfficer)
        {
            if (Functions.IsPedArrested(suspect))
            {
                Functions.PlayScannerAudio("ATTENTION_ALL_UNITS SUSPECT_ARRESTED");
            }
        }

 

 

another problem, audio string not played, happens when  the player (alone and not) arrests the last  suspect  in a pursuit , while with other AI units it is played properly with all suspect in pursuit
