My fault on that....Just got in the mix of doing too much at once!

This is just some ideas that have came to mind for future callout scripts. I'll provide a brief example to some callouts I list. The examples provided are just to give you an idea of what the callout/script could possibly involve. So lets dive into it! Delinquent Callouts - - Truancy/Minors skipping school Example 1: You receive a call from a highschool principal reporting he/she has seen 2 students wondering off school during lunch. It's your job to find the truant stundent(s) within the area reported and handle at your discretion. Example 2: As your patrolling any given neighborhood (some neighborhoods more likely than others) you see a group, 3 at most. That just don't fit in for the time of day, especially during school hours. You can sit back and observe from a distance if you should pull up and ask some questions regarding age, etc. You get the idea. :D - Contributing to the delinquency Example 1: You receive a call from a concerned bystander reporting they've witnessed what looks like a middle aged man/woman with what looks like a group of underage teenagers and some appear to be intoxicated. Maybe the person who notified the authorities could be wrong as well. How you handle & investigate the situation is up to you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyday Callouts (Non-violent or intense action) So, not every call out has to result in an officer being dispatched to a heated dispute, a violent person, etc. Even though, all those are fun! I will not deny that! But what about the simple things. Here a some simple, yet in my personal opinion just fun to be a part of type callouts/etc. I'd like to suggest. - Temporary Traffic Control Example 1: Its shift change at a construction site, school has ended, a huge gathering has ended, etc. and the area where the large group of occupants/pedestrians must cross to get back to their vehicles,etc is located at a busy intersection. That said, you are dispatched to temporarily alert and slow down traffic with your lights by simply positioning your unit near or ahead at the given crosswalk or wherever the crowd is crossing for their safety. Goal of this callout is to simply let your presence be known to those drivers who don't pay as much attention on the road! (I'm sure we've all atleast once witnessed our local P.D.,Sheriff or State Police posted on the side of the road to alert traffic of school starting/ending, shift change at a mill or plant, a busy gathering,etc. Just anything regarding where there will be a lot of pedestrian crossing and traffic could be an issue. Not to get this mixed up with the officers who physically direct traffic with the whistle.) -Elderly lost/Nursing Home patient wondered off: Example 1: Simply put, you get a report from dispatch that they received a call from a concerned grandson/granddaughter/son,etc or nursing home staff that their patient/grandmother has gone missing or maybe you see a dazed and confused elderly person wondering the streets of Los Santos on your daily patrol. It would be nice and a good rep for any officer from any department to kindly help bring back grandma to their loved ones or return them back to safety within the nursing home. Rather than have them mugged or taken advantage of in the cold streets of SA. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now here are some callouts/events I'll name off without examples. Property Dispute Noise Complaint (Party at a house Late A.M., etc) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- One other neat Idea I had was a ped motion, where a suspect tries to reach for your gun. It's a simple motion, but it does happen out there. I figured something like that would keep you on your toes and add to the alertness of any officer! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So there are some ideas I have had. Just please note, that I have no experience when it comes to scripting. So I do apologize if these are not able to be implemented. Maybe the ideas I have given can spark something else in mind for somebody looking for script/scenario ideas. Also, the names I give for the callouts are just sample names, if anybody decides to go with any of these ideas, feel free to change the name! Just ask that you give a little credit as to who helped with the idea! :D I will add more ideas, if they pop up in bulk! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That said, thanks for taking the time to read this! Have a nice day!

Are you still looking for a texture for this vehicle? Or is it already completed?

Perfectly answered! I couldn't agree more! I would take heed towards the above statement. To all of those who have the mindset engraved that the developers must act at the snap of a finger, I'll be respectfully blunt.. Just imagine (theoretically) a world with a not-so-friendly Developer/Staff. Where they decided something along the lines of - "You know what, we really don't owe anybody anything concerning this mod. Lets just stop here at the current build and leave it be. " or better yet, "Instead of free, how about we start finding ways to charge the player-base for the services provided." That's just some food for thought! :D Not for all, but for the ones who cant quite see the bigger picture yet! -------------------------------------- What it all boils down to in my personal opinion. When it comes to MAJOR updates....Its a "Needs of the many vs Needs of the Few / Quality over Quanity" kinda thing.
