Hey LSPDFR users,
I'm going to post all my Canadian LSPDFR Patrol videos in this thread. Hoping to show case all the different Canadian Law Enforcement agencies and great modifications. If you make Canadian mods and would like me to use them in a video, let me know. The more Canadian mods the better :D
You can also check out my channel www.youtube.com/c/rangerscope every Saturday at 3PM Pacific Time / 6PM Eastern Time to watch a new LSPDFR video.
Thanks,
Ranger / RaNgErScOpE

I've got Winnipeg :p

Federal Callouts was created to give more purpose to the FIB, DOA and IAA models and let people more accurately play as federal agents in general. I released it now to get feedback as to what I can add to current callouts and what callouts I could add in the future.
Current Callouts
Potential drug deal - Pretty self explanatory. You're sent out to watch if a guy sells drugs, and if he does, arrest him. Watching isn't the hard part... (currently 4 different paths the callout can go when you move in to arrest the suspect). Around 20% of the time the intel is bad (if this ends up being too frequent I may lower it).
Prevent assassination - This requires more investigation. You are given a gender of the killer and an area to look for him. The assassin will strike after 1-5 minutes so your response time can be crucial. Look for the odd man out - someone who is following another person.
Armored car robbery - Robbers are moving in on an armored car. You must help the guards protect the armored vehicle. If you arrive before the robber stay with the truck and wait for them to arrive.
Wanted person - (previously execute arrest warrant) There is a suspect who has a warrant out for his arrest. Arrest him. Responding code 3 may make your job harder. (This is the first few variations of the callout - eventually there will be many more. If you are looking for a callout where the suspect is in a vehicle, check out Traffic Policer).
Escaped prisoner - You're given a name, description, prior and general area. You need to find the escaped fugitive.
Kidnapping - There has been a kidnapping in the area. Dispatch has a list of suspect vehicles and is getting 911 calls with more suspects as well. Work with your agency to locate the kidnapper and save the victim.
Current Features
Agency detection - There are two name settings. Based on which model you pick when you go on duty, Federal Callouts will pick the more appropriate name.
Suspect danger level - when looking for a fugitive or someone with an arrest warrant, dispatch will tell you that person's crimes and that will tell you roughly how dangerous they will be (armed crimes = armed suspect)
Dynamic callout spawnpoints - As of writing this only the drug deal callout will utilize this feature. This feature lets users specify their own spawnpoints (and remove existing one) for callouts. You can find the spawnpoints in /Plugins/LSPDFR/FederalCallouts. Each folder is for a different group of spawnpoints. For example, "Drug" contains the drug deal spawnpoints. You can use this tool to created spawnpoints. File name does not matter. Tags are currently not utilized. Heading (which way you are facing in the world) is used so when creating spawnpoints for callouts that spawn a single ped like Potential drug deal make sure your character is facing the way you want the dealer to be facing. When finished, simply place the XML file in the correct folder mentioned earlier and Federal Callouts will dynamically load it the next time the game starts!
Dispatch audio - All callouts support dispatch audio for when the callout pops up and many support it during the callout itself.
Vehicle Repair - Just pull up to your department's garage and the mechanics will repair your car for you, good as new. I added this feature when I heard @FirstThirtyMinutes would find it useful for streams and I figured I would like it as well. More repair locations will be added as necessary.

Planned Callouts
Sting operations - A bunch of different types. The current WIP is one where the suspect thinks he has a bomb in his van but he really doesn't. Most (if not all) will be based on real FBI sting operations.
Execute search warrant - This will be pretty simple but also take some time as I need to gather locations. Search a store or house for evidence of an alleged crime or for a wanted fugitive.
Terrorist callouts - Some of these will be sting operations. Others will be real tips and you need to stop a terrorist attack, whether it be a mass shooting or a bomb. (thanks for the idea Hystery!)
Bank robbery investigation - This might be a lengthy callout. You are sent out to interview some staff and other witnesses of a bank robbery. You need to interview witnesses and collect evidence. I might make this multiple callouts that work together (I have a few ways of doing this in mind) but it might also just be one big one, I'll see how it works out.
Investigate corruption - It might be a dirty politician or a dirty cop. It might be nothing. You'll have to tail them and find out.
Feel free to suggest more!
I do have some other ideas but they're still also a work in progress and not really ready to be revealed as they are rough.
Also, to save space, I am only going to put the callouts I am actively working on in the planned callouts section for now.
Planned Features
Better spawn locations - Drug deals will eventually spawn in alleyways and other less visible locations.
Better callout AI - Suspects will see marked police vehicles and won't commit crimes in front of them. They might eventually lose the eyes in the back of their head (i.e. instead of getting too close to a drug dealer and spooking him, he'd have to see you. think how the GTA V police search system works, where they have to look for you or you lose your wanted level)
Abundance of variation - Pretty straightforward. I hope to get rid of almost all predictability of all the callouts.
Playstyle tuning - Are you a beginner or more experienced? Tune the settings of the individual callouts to match your playstyle and adjust realism. Don't like a callout? Turn it off.
Investigation - There's a reason they're called special agents. It's because they can arrest and investigate. I will add some investigation oriented callouts and some variations of current callouts that require a little investigation (thanks for the idea Hystery!)
