Stopping Cops from targeting a Ped

[Darkmyre 701]

So I'm trying to work on a Partner plugin, however no matter what I try, I cannot get around one fatal flaw: As soon as the partner ped starts shooting near other cops, they all turn on him en-masse and slaughter him. I've set him to his own RelationshipGroup and obtained the hash for that, and am then trying to set his relations with both the player (to stop him slaughtering the player) and other police - the player relations seem to be working fine, however the cops still hate the poor guy. I've included the relevant code below, in case anyone can shed some light on wtf is going on:

Partner.partner = new Ped("mp_m_freemode_01", Game.LocalPlayer.Character.Position.Around(3f), );
Partner.partner.RelationshipGroup = "PARTNER";
Game.DisplayHelp(Partner.partner.RelationshipGroup.Hash.ToString()); // returns 169451935
NativeFunction.CallByName<uint>("SET_RELATIONSHIP_BETWEEN_GROUPS", 1, 1862763509, 169451935); //player->partner
NativeFunction.CallByName<uint>("SET_RELATIONSHIP_BETWEEN_GROUPS", 1, 169451935, 1862763509); // partner->player
NativeFunction.CallByName<uint>("SET_RELATIONSHIP_BETWEEN_GROUPS", 1, 4208871491, 169451935); //cop->partner
NativeFunction.CallByName<uint>("SET_RELATIONSHIP_BETWEEN_GROUPS", 1, 169451935, 4208871491); // partner->cop
                        
Partner.partner.CanAttackFriendlies = false;
Partner.partner.CanBeTargetted = false;

Functions.SetPedAsCop(Partner); should do the trick.

There's any reason to why you're using the natives? You can use Game.SetRelationshipBetweenRelationshipGroups(), with this you don't need to know the hash of each group or the index of the relationships types.
Some time ago I also have this relationships problem wth preventing cops from shooting some normal peds, I solved it by using Relationship.Companion, or index 0 if you continue to use the native.

Example:
Game.SetRelationshipBetweenRelationshipGroups("COP", "MYGROUP", Relationship.Companion);

 

You can try what Albo said too, that should work.

I should've mentioned I did try this, but then LSPDFR likes to take over the Ped (part of the reason I'm using the freemode model instead of a cop model)

Only reason I used natives was I didn't know there was another way lol For some reason I seem to default to checking natives rather than poking about the Object Browser.

Will give Companion a try and see if that helps, thanks guys :D

Edit: Changing the relation to Companion worked perfectly, thanks again Alex!

Great!

On a side note, there's a Functions.SetCopAsBusy() that should prevent LSPDFR from taking it over.
