Suggested New Features


Zach

Recommended Posts

1) During a traffic stop, when you accept the license you should need to get back into your patrol vehicle to run the license on the computer, and then reapproach the driver as in real life.

2) More realistic names and a lot of them for more realistic ID's.

3) ID's should also show what state they are from. Most should be local but some could be other states.

4) A button to stop calls from coming in temporarily. (If you only want to work traffic for the time being.)

5) When you arrest someone at gunpoint, instead of them laying on the ground cuffed they should be cuffed and follow you to your police car as they do in a traffic stop arrest.

6) More options for a traffic stop: Reckless/Careless Driving, Impeding Traffic, Speeding 10/25/30+over, Noise Violation (Stereo up too loud), etc as well as the option for $50/$75/$90/$125/$250/$500/$1000 tickets. When you issue a more expensive ticket they should have the possibility of becoming angry and/or violent, but not too often. Gotta keep it realistic.. smile.gif

7) City wide police actions: It would be cool to be driving down a road and see a traffic stop being done by another officer. It would add more realism. If you could somehow program the AI officers to use the mod (not all just a few) then that would be awesome.

8) Status window - A small status window in the bottom right hand corner of the screen that shows the unit number, current location, if we're on a call or not, the location of the call, the type of call, or if we're in a traffic stop.

9) More missions: suspicious activity, fatal car crashes, officer in need of assistance, robbery, domestic dispute, breaking and entering, needing to direct traffic, prostitution, etc. each mission should have different scenarious too.. like hot dog guys dealing drugs, two cars parked next to each other in a dark alley etc.. suspicious activity calls should also have the possibility of turning out to be nothing.. false alarm.. just two scetchy looking fellows talking to each other in an alley or something..

10) SPOTLIGHT. It would be AWESOME if you could have an actual working spotlight in the car.. using the rightmouse/target button to aim the light. and it should stay on when you get out of the car and stay aimed where you aimed ot for traffic stops etc..

11) The ability to go to a police station to get more guns/amo.

If i think of anymore i'll be sure to post them!

# 11....can't be done....the maker of ELS tried...

I see.. what do you think of the rest of the ideas? I think the ability to turn headlights off would be a simple feature to add.. it would be awesome to see that in the next version.

1) During a traffic stop, when you accept the license you should need to get back into your patrol vehicle to run the license on the computer, and then reapproach the driver as in real life.

Something you can expect to see soon.

2) More realistic names and a lot of them for more realistic ID's.

I see no point.

3) ID's should also show what state they are from. Most should be local but some could be other states.

I see no point.

4) A button to stop calls from coming in temporarily. (If you only want to work traffic for the time being.)

Added in next version.

5) When you arrest someone at gunpoint, instead of them laying on the ground cuffed they should be cuffed and follow you to your police car as they do in a traffic stop arrest.

Don't arrest them at gunpoint then?

6) More options for a traffic stop: Reckless/Careless Driving, Impeding Traffic, Speeding 10/25/30+over, Noise Violation (Stereo up too loud), etc as well as the option for $50/$75/$90/$125/$250/$500/$1000 tickets. When you issue a more expensive ticket they should have the possibility of becoming angry and/or violent, but not too often. Gotta keep it realistic..

Nope, unfortunately it is only possible to have 3 reasons for traffic stops because there are 3 speech events for that in the game. And $1000 tickets?

7) City wide police actions: It would be cool to be driving down a road and see a traffic stop being done by another officer. It would add more realism. If you could somehow program the AI officers to use the mod (not all just a few) then that would be awesome.

Something I will try.

8) Status window - A small status window in the bottom right hand corner of the screen that shows the unit number, current location, if we're on a call or not, the location of the call, the type of call, or if we're in a traffic stop.

I dont want to add any screen clutter, it's just ugly and gets in the way.

9) More missions: suspicious activity, fatal car crashes, officer in need of assistance, robbery, domestic dispute, breaking and entering, needing to direct traffic, prostitution, etc. each mission should have different scenarious too.. like hot dog guys dealing drugs, two cars parked next to each other in a dark alley etc.. suspicious activity calls should also have the possibility of turning out to be nothing.. false alarm.. just two scetchy looking fellows talking to each other in an alley or something..

We're always adding more missions.

10) SPOTLIGHT. It would be AWESOME if you could have an actual working spotlight in the car.. using the rightmouse/target button to aim the light. and it should stay on when you get out of the car and stay aimed where you aimed ot for traffic stops etc..

I have tried, tried, tried and failed and failed at this. Impossible to do due to different cars having different offsets and dimensions.

11) The ability to go to a police station to get more guns/amo.

You could go to a police station but not inside one.

If i think of anymore i'll be sure to post them!

Hi

Currently the mod is very good, but I have a few suggestions for next release.

1)When you pursue someone on foot, occasionally they should just stop and give up so you can arrest them (I currently like that passing police cars help you though)

2)on subject of arrests when you make a arrest out of range of your car, it currently says you need a police vehicle any way of having a greater distance between arresting and taking the suspect back to your car?

3)I know more missions will be added, but maybe one can be at the airport, mad man on runway or terror threat or V.I.P escort with a number of units. What would be good is when you respond to a mission depending of the severity of it other police units make their way to it without you having to call backup so sometimes you follow them in (I.E 2 police cars heading for an emergency will look good in convoy) or you arrive after, or before them, I've noticed that occasionally when you go to do a suicide mission another police car turns up, though they do nothing lol. For example a mission involving a domestic you need to call backup manually yourself (if needed) but for gang shootouts or major missions ect they come automatically like I motioned above.

possible mission list

traffic accidents

assault

domestic

robbery in progress

Officer needs assistance(a random mission starts), you backup them

House raids ect... smile.gif

4)pursuits: In older versions backup units came in automatically during a pursuit it would be a good idea to implement this in the next release maybe limit it to 2 cars automatically and then you can press f10 for more. Because I am finding I am having to press F10 often before any units join me in a chase, also linked to the above comment you should be able to join in pursuits in progress by other officers as well

Overall a great Mod and the basics are flawless:-

the random arrest/search

patrolling the city

traffic stops

It just needs something more smile.gif 'cough' the above suggestions 'cough' lol.

Thanks for great mod and keep up the good work

A breathlyzer feature would be good, check alcohol limit of drivers. Then if possible, user-defined "legal" alcohol limit (0.05,0.08 etc.) Also, when trying to get people out of the car, make sure they do.

would be nice, just pull-over someone to see if the alcohol limit is reached yet.

If i remember right they didn't come automaticly. And there is no need for it as you can just edit the ini file and turn on the "automatic dispatching" wink.gif
