Making pitting suspects easier

[marwaan 36]

Hi guys, when I'm during a pursuit I noticed that the suspect's vehicle is kinda heavy,

sometimes my police suv get pushed away by a little car

Anyway can I make pitting peds easier or more normal?

Thanks

Unfortunately, no.
AI-cars drives from A to B then to C eg they just drives around and they can be made to PIT very nicely, i made that in code, and thought that i had fixed the PIT scenario ..But
Pursued cars are completely different. They are controlled with 'showers' of directional and speed control commands by the base-game-engine. It means that if a pursued car is forced into a different direction it will imediately be commanded back on the chase-course by the game-engine, that is what you feel like 'being heavy'. So real physic PIT where one car uses momentum to spin another car around, that cant bee done.
I have made a pitiful version where the chased car is thrown into a 90 dg directional change, but that is done with a press of a button, so not at all realistic, but by all means.. It feels a bit like a PIT. I can shoot a short video and show what it is if you are interested, just let me know.

Well yes I am interested, I hope installing the other version does not need coding or something complicated

Request PIT via StopThePed context menu while in pursuit, and make sure the below setting is set to "true" in StopThePed.ini:

 

// Enable Realistic PIT Maneuver Physics. This will fix bad vehicle physics on LSPDFR 0.4.x which makes it impossible to PIT suspect vehicle. (yes/no)
EnableRealisticPITManeuverPhysics=yes

I vaguely recalled a flag in the vehicle metadata indicating the vehicle's inability to perform a pit due to its weight. You could try removing the BIG or STRONG flag to see if it makes a difference.

You must request PIT via the context menu first. 

 

Note that the difference is minimal but you should definitely notice it.

If STP cant do what you want let me know if you want to see my lame method

Yeah I noticed the difference but the suspect car still heavy

Damn that is way easier than I thought, anyway I will try this as last solution. Thank you
