[WIP] Kaller's Extra Callouts
That's not a bad idea, If i go ahead as i currently plan and 'de-british' the plugin it will hopefully be more relatable to the callouts of LCPDFR days included in both the core mod and the brave-hearts policing script. No thanks needed! I've loved this mod in its numerous forms for a long time, and always had the urge to develop something for it.

[WIP] Kaller's Extra Callouts
A domestic disturbance is an excellent idea. With regards to the phrasing antisocial, it's 100% a British thing, for us, antisocial behaviour is anything that is likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress to any reasonable member of the public and is encompassed in multiple acts namely: Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2014/12/contents/enacted Public Order Act 1986 https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1986/64/contents. A bit of light reading if you ever get bored!, in summary in the UK being antisocial is a crime! As someone with police experience, they're thoroughly used legislation. However! In the interest of internationalising the project I will very likely rename to Disorderly or similar so that my american compatriots in digital crime won't find it a jarring experience.

[WIP] Kaller's Extra Callouts
Hi All, I know the LSPDFR community is aflush with Work in Progress callout plugins, However I've decided to have a crack at my own, using both experience out of game, and a list of callouts I've wanted to see based on my play style. My goal is not to create extravagant scenarios, but to bolster your existing list of calls with a few of my own. Each call will encompass a variety of circumstances or locations. I'll keep a list of planned features here and welcome any and all suggestions. Planned Calls Tresspass on the railway [In Progress]: Inspired by a lack of British Transport Police calls, This scenario will have you respond to various rail network locations across the city and outlying areas to remove an individual from the track. They will attempt to flee from you. There is also a chance that the call is dealt with prior to your arrival and as such you will be stood down. Antisocial Behaviour[In Progress]: You're asked to respond to an individual acting anti-socially in a public space. They're likely going to be drunk, violent, boisterous or a combination of all three. Fail to stop [Complete]: Whilst this has been address across multiple plugins, I've left this in as it was the first callout I've created and it's sentimental! You're asked to respond to a fail to stop, in which a pursuit is already in progress. Suspicious Circumstances [Planned]: This call will encompass a variety of circumstances, including an individual taking photographs of sensitive properties such as police stations or government offices, An individual acting suspiciously at a rail terminal or airport, Reports from neighbours regarding suspicious sightings on another property, and more. Abandoned vehicle/vehicle alight [Planned]: A vehicle has been found in a public area either abandoned, or alight. Investigate the scene and handle the aftermath appropriately. I will update this list when more callouts are planned, or when their status changes. I welcome any suggestions. A big thanks to @ToastinYou for their wonderful guide, which helped massively in working out the format for the plugin. Whilst i've developed in c# before, I've never looked into a plugin until I read that guide.

You think this is good pc for lcpdfr
As mentioned you would 100% benefit from a dedicated GPU, even if you dropped down a processor spec to afford one, you'll not be able to play much without one.

No sorry you'll be needing a legitimate copy of World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade to run 0.4- Response distance
I don't mind when it happens every now and then because sometimes you'de realistically be around the corner from something, but when the majority of calls are around the corner and you press the party button to turn your lights on for about 15 seconds it tends to knock the wind out your sails.- LSPDFR 0.4 - Coming February, 2019
Very true- LSPDFR 0.4 - Coming February, 2019

Anticipation, with a dash of speculation and the tiniest amount of absolute nonsense!- LSPDFR 0.4 - Coming February, 2019
They should add that one suspect who you always come across that's the illegal prototype of Usain bolt, sprints for miles on end and requires an army of officers to contain.- LSPDFR 0.4 - Coming February, 2019
Nobody has a date, I'm not even sure the Devs themselves have a date, it may be that it does come at the end having used the month to generate the appropriate hype and have the testers work their magic.- LSPDFR 0.4 - Coming February, 2019
It's often best practice to do a fresh install, plus some may not have played for a while, installed other mods on top of LSPDFR or even play the danger game of not using a mods folder.- LSPDFR 0.4 - Coming February, 2019
The numbers mason, what do they mean?- Response distance
The only problem with fixed locations is that whenever you get that call eventually you'll have responded there multiple times before, which yes it makes sense due to repeat offenders but changed get frustrating after a while. But they're definitely a step in the right direction.- Response distance
A topic I wished to add my own thoughts into should the development team be on the prowl for any ideas. Please correct me if this has been addressed. From my playtime using LSPDFR until now I've noticed that calls tend to be generated fairly close to the player, whether this is purely down to the mod itself or the plugins used I'm not sure, but if at all possible should the 0.4 or any subsequent releases add new calls to the base mod if the range could vary from call to call from a few blocks away to the other side of the city. As a British player I tend to enjoy the response runs from A to B and usually find them fairly short in-game. I believe this would add a little extra enjoyment to calls as it makes them last a little longer, as incorporating the drive to the event is now part of the call at large and a quick but safe response from across the city adds a new factor. Thoughts welcome!- National flags are gone
Petition to add a Welsh flag? Just me? Okay then- Bug - mobile website placeholder won't load/show
Can confirm this is a replicatable thing. Same happens on my device, chrome android 8.0- New LSPDFR user
Glad you got it working! LCPDFR and LSPDFR have always required you to press a key to conduct a stop. LSPDFR's handling is much better than in IV as you press the key to blip a vehicle and then run the siren to initiate the stop.- New LSPDFR user
Albo's police smart radio here on the forums offers towing and coroners.- Cool new way to stop criminals
When it comes down to it entirely dependent on the scenario i could see it being incredibly difficult to deploy unless the intended target is standing still for long enough. Chances are it would be used in a last ditch effort to stop someone who's running off. Based off experience a taser is likely more effective, after communication and restraining methods have failed. - LSPDFR 0.4 - Coming February, 2019
