Just wanted to float this idea for a plugin or addon. Now this will probably seem silly to most, but it should bump up the realism points.

The idea is that when you are finished with a call out you can use your police computer to type a brief synopsis of the incident, ideally details (names, DOBs, tag numbers, make and models) of things involved in the incident could be on one side of the screen or the other. Maybe even like a fill in the blank or menu type thing would work. I'm not talking about writing a thesis paper here, just a few lines.

Example for computer based report: "At 12:30 Officer Snuffy observed a green sedan (tag #XXXXXXXX) that failed to yield at stop sign on Whatever street, driver (name, DOB) citied for failure to stop at a stop sign."

Example for menu based report: "Select incident type: Moving violation. Select further details: blah blah blah. Result: Citation issued/Handled by officer."

Or something that effect. Please let me know if this is something you would enjoy. I'm not a modder myself, but I still think it would be kinda fun.

 

That's a pretty sweet idea. I'm no coder so I can't speak to the actual possibility of it, but I would definitely download if someone made it!

So like TicketTime but with reports and not just tickets. Could be difficult, I don't know if you've noticed but even at this point if you try to look up someone's name on the in-car computer it will turn the lights or siren on if you press the right keys so maybe disabling actions while typing in those windows isn't possible yet? Obviously a good idea but really the only way to do it right now is have your own templates for reports open and just alt tab and fill them out or something.

Hmm, I'm not familiar with it. I'll have to take a look.
