SUSPECT MOTOR FAILURE (SMF) - THE (WORLDS FIRST) ULTIMATE REALISM OVERHAUL [FOR LSPD:FR]
Tired of suspects driving like tanks after a 100mph head-on collision. Suspect Motor Failure brings realistic damage consequences to your pursuits. No more "immortal" AI engines - if they crash hard, their car dies.
--- KEY FEATURES ---
Dynamic Engine Death: When a vehicle's body is significantly deformed (e.g., after a successful PIT maneuver) or the engine is hit, the motor will fail, stall, and begin to smoke or burn.
AI Logic: Once the vehicle is disabled, AI drivers realize the car is useless and will exit the vehicle at safe speeds, creating seamless transitions to foot chases.
Dual Threshold System: Separate health checks for Engine and Body deformation to ensure maximum realism.
Performance Optimized: Uses a 500ms check interval and HashSet tracking to ensure ZERO impact on your FPS, even during heavy police chases.
Player Protection: The script intelligently ignores the player's vehicle. You can ram suspects without fear of your own engine dying.
--- CUSTOMIZATION (.INI) ---
This version comes with a dedicated SuspectMotorFailure.ini file. You can easily adjust:
Scan Radius
Engine & Body Health Thresholds
Chance of the engine catching fire (70/30 Smoke/Fire logic)
Safe exit speed for AI
--- COMPATIBILITY ---
LSPDFR: Fully compatible.
Damage Mods (DriveV / RVD): Works perfectly. Note: If using "Realistic Vehicle Damage", it is recommended to let SMF handle the failure logic.
--- REQUIREMENTS ---
ScriptHookV
ScriptHookVDotNet v3.7.0...
--- INSTALLATION ---
Drag and drop SuspectMotorFailure.dll and SuspectMotorFailure.ini into your /scripts/ folder.
Adjust the .ini file to your liking.
--- CHANGELOG ---
Update v3.6
API Fix: Fully updated for the latest ScriptHookVDotNet3 (fixed MissingMethodException).
User Request: Added StayInCarChance! Suspects now have a random chance to stay in the vehicle instead of fleeing immediately (Thanks to the community for the idea!).
Customize: Customize the StayInCarChance in the .ini.
Architecture Update: Project compiled in x64 for maximum stability.
