Law enforcement bug megathread

[brains]

Post any and all bugs relating to any LSPD, FBI, or Mayoral commands or abilities in here. Please be thorough in your descriptions.

[Thesoldier]

/gov does not work for any LSPD or FBI of the required rank, each time you type /gov it gives you the message "You are not a law enforcement officer"

FBI News Maverick, Cheetah Car, Recon Van, and the other unmarked vehicle are still considered civilian vehicles and cannot use the megaphone command through /m

edit: Although already mentioned in the other thread

LSPD and FBI need to pay per character level to add new members in, as if it were a gang

The bail bug, where even though bail is being set by the arresting officers, the person arrested is held without bail.

[brains]

All known bugs with bail are fixed, along with /gov and the issues with /megaphone. I'll be rewriting the invite code for all factions soon, and the invite cost will be changed to only affect families.

[Mrado]

If someone is wanted level 5 the red bleep shows up, however. If someone makes an 911 call or if someone else get's wanted level 5 most of the time the red bleep disappear.

[Silver_Leo]

To add onto what Mrado said - If someone uses /find on the person with a blip, it just vanishes. And it's often abused...

Also, when you do /duty, it gives you a shotgun/deagle/mp5/spray/nitestick layout, however if you have any armor on you at that moment, it disappears.

When you spawn, you have to pretty much run all the way to the PD entrance, then back to the armory.

It's a huge waste of time during emergencies.



PLEASE change -some- of the LVPD cars into SFPD. I beg you!

[Walter_Melon]

It seems that the issue with the /find thing is that only one person can have that particular blip on their screen, so you steal it from people when you do it. Not only is it abused, it is accidentally happening when multiple officers are chasing.

If you are being recon'd and attempt to taze someone you will taze the person watching you instead of the criminal.

If a criminal is wanted level five and you or someone else /finds them it also gets rid of their blip permanently.

Also seconding some SFPD cars, I think we should have more SFPD and LSPD than LVPD.

[Chris Hansen]

I don't know if there is much difference among the LSPD, SFPD, or LVPD cars. But I generally prefer the LVPD cars. Unless the handling or acceleration is any better in one of them, I don't see much point in changing around the vehicle codes, because when that happens, permissions tend to get fucked up (i.e. people flying News helicopters).

[Alex_Street]

The MDC in police vehicles won't show what crimes a person has committed if that person has logged off/crashed since receiving the wanted level.

[Chris Hansen]

^MAKE THIS PRIORITY. It would also be great that when the suspect has more than one wanted level, it doesn't just show their most recent reason for being /su'd, but all previous reasons as well. And I think sometimes if the suspect calls 911, it might reset the reason or something.

[Akimoto Shun]

I can't /take weapons. It says I need to be Rank 1 or higher.

You're a cadet, which is rank 0. You can only use /take once you're promoted to officer.

[Akimoto Shun]

Oh, I am a failure.

[Taz]

The /camera function is bugged. Typing /camera will work in the LSPD building will work, however the camera images are grey and look glitched. I have provided some screenshots which should provide you with an example of what I am talking about.

[Chris Hansen]

That looks like the prison in Area 69.

[Gook_Johnson]

That looks like the prison in Area 69.

In the godfather server NG patrols Area 69 and they get /camera to watch the criminals. It should just be taken out.

[Keegan_Russo]

I just managed to kill myself while using /satellite.



I was observing a chase on the /satellite, hit esc to pull up the map to find the location, and all of a sudden I got the "You've been killed, $500" message. Instead of respawning me in the hospital, I was stuck in the air where the perp was and then eventually spawned back in the pd garage.



In addition to the above, if you're observing a chase, and the suspect dies, the /satellite operator also gets a suspect killed bonus.

We lose our armor every time we crash / relog

[Brendon_Paule]

Not a bug, but should be added back:

Police Motorbikes, they're missing, and many of us miss them!

Use the armory when you login.

Well, most of the time the armor and anything in the armoury doesn't spawn.

Wasnt it you who said you get like 12FPS? This is a client based game, if your client cant show it right...Welp.

[Walter_Melon]

Actually, if the armor hasn't spawned all you have to do is get a gun and it will automatically spawn. Unless the guns don't spawn for you either...

you just need to run behind the pillar in the center and back to get the armor dumbbutt
