Couple of ideas for mods

March 4, 20188 yr

I had a couple ideas for mods if anyone out there is stumped and looking for something to do that could add alot to the game. If I had any coding skills I would attempt to do them myself but I have no clue how to accomplish this.

-Move over script: activated with a hotkey, this would place an invisible barrier at a 45 degree angle behind your cop car about ½ of a lane wide making the AI swerve left around your traffic stop. The invisible barrier would need to be far enough from the patrol car so that you can run behind your vehicle should the suspect begin shooting at you. If possible, you could have a %age of chance a speeding vehicle ignores the wall, then you could catch him and ticket him for that offense.

Many states have a Move Over law to protect the officers on the side of the road. If possible, it could be set to automatically dissapear when the traffic stop ends... There's probably a variable for that since Traffic Stop Backup mod, the buddy cop detects when the stop is over and moves back to his car...

-Stop Traffic Mod: there's already an old script that works to stop traffic or slow it down, but it's old and outdated, plus all it does is add a yellow circle on the map and cars magically can't cross that line. I think it should be redone. Have a menu pop up where you can choose how wide(in traffic lanes count) you want the stop to be and what model physically appears to block the traffic, could choose from cones, police "do not cross" barriers or even have a few units dispatched and park their cars in a way to block traffic where you set them. You could choose how far from your current position you want the road to be blocked and have "ghost" models show the player just how far 50 yards really is before he select it. It would be really cool if the cars you select actually have to drive there to block the road, but I understand it might not be possible to do so.
