I’m having major issues with AI behavior in LSPDFR during traffic stops. Pulled-over vehicles behave unpredictably, they swerve across lanes, drive straight for long distances, make multiple U-turns, or even go off-road. I’ve tried: Lowering traffic density, Reverting traffic AI files, I haven’t redone my mods folder yet, as that’s a last-resort solution I’d rather avoid. I’m looking for guidance on which specific files control AI driving and traffic behavior so I can troubleshoot this properly. Any help would be appreciated.

This doesn't sound like normal LSPDFR AI behaviour, likely another mod or plugin causing it. Do you have anything installed which could affect ai behaviour?

i do however even when using non els vehicles traffic still acts erratic during pullovers

What about trainers? Do you have any ai/ped options enabled in a trainer? They often are the culprit with things like this

Okay. Can you upload your RPH log and I'll see if anything sticks out

RagePluginHook.logthis is the last time i launched it but can launch it again for a new one

Okay so it seems SuspectSense is spamming your log with errors, I would try without that

If it still happens, then I suspect either Custom Pullover, RiskierTrafficStops, or SaferChasesRPH could be interfering with the normal LSPDFR behaviour.

First thing I do when installing ELS is disabling the traffic control feature in the els.ini. That does not explain the swerving but it doesn't help as it causes drivers to floor it and crash. My other guess would be the realistic traffic AI mod. In my experience those types of plugins cause more problems than fixes. I have RiskierTrafficStops and Custom Pullover with no serious issues. You could try renaming your mods folder temporarily (which would disable all mods installed in there and make the game revert to the vanilla files) and see what happens with the AI.

I second the removal of SuspectSense, I had a lot of issues with that mod and had to remove it a while back.
