Okay guys, 

 

So im licensed Surety Agent with the Ohio Department of Insurance to recover bail skips. Otherwise popularly known as a "bounty hunter". Basically, your bondsman gives you a file containing information about your suspect such as, a mugshot, physical description, and basic criminal record including the crime he/she is currently on bond for. Then you hit the streets to find him. Checking where he hangs out, interviewing loved ones, etc. I love this job and I think others, including me, would love to enjoy it through role play. What better place for it than LSPDFR?

 

I have beeen playing LSPDFR since the days of LCPDFR and I have always thought a "Warrant Script" would be an incredibly interesting and fun expansion to LSPDFR. Many police departments, sheriff offices, U.S. Marshals, and FBI have "Fugitive Recovery Task Forces".

 

An experienced developer could create a plugin that generates a file on a wanted ped who frequents a few pre-designated areas. Maybe include a location on their house, place of work, and a bar/extracurricular activity. It would then be up to the player to search these areas for the ped based on the suspects mugshot. No blips or hints, just hitting the streets to find him! Integrated meetings/calls with confidential informants that call up and tell you, for example, the guy is currently trying to board a plane at LSIA. This gives players an awesome new way to role play as U.S. Marshals, Bounty Hunters, or more specialized police units. Roll up in a blacked out SUV and nab the guy! And of course ambient scenarios. He could pull a gun, foot chase, maybe he's apart of a gang, etc.. Maybe even serve a warrant on the house. Surround it and make entry (similar to the burglary add-on callout currently in LSPDFR). Surveilance, steakouts, there really are endless opportunities for expansion!

 

Im willing to offer any help I can to someone who would be willing to take on this awesome script modification. I'm sure you would receive tons of downloads. This would be an entirely new activity for officers in LSDPFR. Thanks for reading and the consideration:) I love the LSPDFR community so give me some feedback guys!

I'd be willing to take this on as a group project if there were some other developers who were interested too.

@AlconH   Great man, hopefully this post attracts some other developers that are also interested.

if you are willing to put your collaborative effects in together with me & whoever else decides to join, sure hopefully with more developers doing it it might be easier than one person trying to make it.
