First of all, we all have to agree LSPDFR has grown amanzingly fast since day 1, without lacking the quality or consistency. So in no way this can be considered negative feedback.

But even after all the amazing plugins we can install, all the cars mods, sirens, ELS modifcations and textures, theres definetely one aspect lacking and that is more in-game depth from the AI. No officer can protect a city single-handedly right?  A big part from LSPDFR is based on backup.
I know, I know... its a modder's nightmare and we are limited to what Rockstars offers at that department. But simple things such as better traffic recognition or even more control upon the AI seem so frustrating to not have as a feature in this beatiful mod.

Features such as:

Backup
Am I the only one tired of requesting code 2 assistance for a traffic stop, only for the backup to walk up to me, stare and leave the scene since they dont hear bang-bang? I know that @Albo1125 's Police Radio (soon to be SmartRadio) covers that with the Traffic Backup option, but its faulty. Once you arrest someone, they stop being responsive. They dont even leave the scene after that when you press T. And when they arrive the scene, they cover an entire traffic line instead of pulling over on the side of the Grand Senora freeway, which has really wide spaced off-lanes for traffic stop. Like I said, programing them to at least park behind you is a nightmare due to the existing AI, but definetely something that I would love to see it in an utopian LSPDFR.

Comunication
I'm no police officer IRL, but I've seen enough Cops to realize that police officers, in 80% of the cases, solve their situations with words. Telling everything that happened to a Supervisor or secondary unit that arrived to assist. Being able to at least ask very basic questions to pedestrians in order to determine what just happened and build up suspicions. All of that would make the game very dynamic. For now all we have is MDT and PeterUCallouts' take statement feature to report situations that happened. I think (optional) burocracy could be fun to a certain extent. Call me crazy.

AI manual control
This is mostly directed for partner mods. Some like Police Partner and Yet Another Partner Mod offer different dynamic features in each that could solve the issue of lack of control over friendly AI. The solution is simple. Combine them both in LSPDFR itself, not as a plugin. I find the ability of having a partner a prioriority and responsability from the base mod. Being able to tell the partner to follow/halt or even arrest, go to a certain location or cover someone (somehow like we had in GTA IV LCPDFR when we had  the mouse menu after the 1.0 version) should be mandatory basic controls. Also to be able to recruit  nearby law enforcement agents in order to control them while on the scene. We can do that with Yet Another Partner Mod, but only with one officer. And we're basically separating a unit from their partner... which is a very dramatic and sad story. #PartnerLivesMatter 
When dismissed, they would go back to their vehicle and drive off. If on foot, just walk away. Of course, this would mean two processes: controlling the partner and controlling nearby officers. You know, to avoid dismissing both when you just want to dismiss the nearby officers.

It is not from my nature to ask first instead of making it myself but I have no clue how to create such plugins. I took a peak at what C++ modding meant and I got terrified. If I had the availability to learn sure, but I dont unfortunally. Busy learning things I'll probably never use in life... great trade...

Although I am creating a .xml mod for Map Editor so please don't call me a freeloader. I'm just exercising my right to suggest for a better LSPDFR for everybody. I think these sugestions could really boost this already great mod to an epic scale.

My country's police department is already using this mod as an incentive to promote what good policing is. Maybe we can teach those ignorant 7News and police "professionals" that LSPDFR is a good role model, not a bad influence.


I hope this suggestion is taken seriously. We never know until we try right? Thank you for the attention of all who read this suggestion. As long we keep the great community that LSPDFR represents, I'm good. Also expect grammar mistakes. Not native.

Also if I would need any keywords for this suggestion, I would insert 3:
Better Organized Policing
