    This is one advantage of XML over INIs: it's pretty easy to add attributes, because you don't then have to add that attribute to every single entry in the entire file.

    That gives me an idea... perhaps a suggestion for a future update:
    In addition to livery customization, I wonder if the XML could be extended to control vehicle extras...
    For example, the Buffalo S w/ Edge lightbar that (like many cars) has the lightbar as an extra. It would be cool to set, for example, patrol backup to have the lightbar, while SWAT can show up in a slicktop.

    Good news regarding that 2015 Charger: As of today, the description now reads "*Police version will be available today* "

    Long time airsofter here... actually was at a game just a couple of weeks ago that had 500 registered players over two days. Bear in mind these are my opinions, but I don't think many airsofters will disagree with me on this.
     
    Airsoft games should be held in dedicated fields... areas meant for airsoft. Just like paintball is generally played at, well, paintball fields/arenas.
     
    Within these fields, orange tip or not doesn't matter, because you are playing in an area designated for airsoft games, run by a company that probably has insurance (ie you sign a waiver to play there), and probably has notified local LE what goes on there. Plus most fields are intentionally opened in secluded areas (or are indoor fields in which case, well, it's behind walls!) This is how I play, thus I don't generally have orange on muzzles, and believe me my guns could easily be mistaken for the real deal (anyone here know of Real Sword? Yup.)
     
    Important to remember to transport stuff in bags/cases too, of course. Many indoor fields especially are located in parking lots near to, or shared by, totally unrelated establishments, who wouldn't be too happy to see folks walking out of their cars with an AK in hand.
     
    Private property (that you own or have permission to use, of course... so that abandoned factory complex? Unless you can get permission from whoever owns it, NOPE) isn't as good as a field for plenty of reasons (eg. no insurance, no refs, etc), but if it's secluded, I'd still say it's alright, same transport rule from above applies though.
     
    Playing in a public neighborhood, or anywhere that could be seen by non-players reasonably easily? Orange tip or not still doesn't matter I'd say, but in this case it's a no-go either way.
    Here's a scenario why:
    Kids running around neighborhood with airsoft guns, with orange tips.
    Someone sees, doesn't realize they are replicas (calling them toys is sometimes frowned upon for this very reason), calls 911 and reports people with guns.
    Officer arrives on scene, and mentally is probably expecting real firearms.
     
    Maybe he sees the orange tips clearly, and the kids all drop the guns, and get dealt with peacefully.
    OR maybe one of them, for whatever reason, points the gun at the officer or another person. The officer has seconds to react, and even if he sees and processes the orange tip in his/her mind, might still consider it a serious threat and take action with his very real weapon. Frankly, even with an orange tip, I can imagine plenty of circumstances where I'd feel an officer was justified in feeling there was sufficient threat present to fire their gun.
     
    [TL;DR] Solution? Keep airsoft in your house, in a bag/case, or at an airsoft field. Orange tip for shipping as per law, beyond that, I don't think it matters much whether regardless of if you're gonna be smart with them or not.
