@AidenDem, sir there's an akward bug with the recognition system, after you get arrested by the police, the recognized status does not dissapear and player gets instantly a wanted level as soon as it spawns outside the police station. I don't know if you still work on this mod, but please check out this bug.
@AidenDem Oh good to know, i hope you won't give up on your mod soon, ur actually doing a great job. A long time ago there was a mod like yours that got removed, it was called something like Police rebalance and Enhacement, it didn't got updates since 2016 so it does not work anymore, it's really amazing seeing someone actually doing a simillar mod that works with newer version of the game. Also idk about Rockstar patching animals reporting to police, I always get wanted level for shooting in locations without people like mount Chilliad or Senora Desert where the only peds around are animals.
@AidenDem As you asked for suggestions, here are mine:
1) Only one police car responds at 1 star wanted level, to make the gameplay more realistic
2) At 1 star, cops only warn player without attacking, but at 2 stars police is less agressive and actively uses tasers against the player and switch to firearms in case the player starts shooting back.
3) I know this one sounds wild but It would be cool to have police dogs chasing you while on foot at 1,2 and 3 stars wanted level.
3) You actually get a wanted if walking with a firearm in front of a cop
4) Tanks and Jets that actually attack you spawns at 5 stars wanted level (1 jet spawns at 4 stars)
5) police search you in the last known location after you manage to hide, that means they don't know exactly where you are.
6) Silencers are actually quiet and you don't get a wanted level for shooting from a silenced gun as long as nobody saw you.
7) Cops are less agressive if you stand in front of them, that means they won't attack you after 3 seconds of staying still.
8) Swat team + Noose comes out at 3 stars and FIB + Swat at 4 stars
9 ) Police helicopters do have a respawn time of 60 seconds to give the player an opportunity of escaping after managing to shot them down.
10) A marking for stolen vehicles would also be very nice, Something like this: you'll have a 70% for hijacked cars from peds to get marked as stolen and 20% chance for parked vehicles. If a policeman or a street patrol sees you driving a stolen vehicle, you'll get 1 star, and to avoid unwanted attention, you can change car color in LS customs.
11) This one I think will be very hard to code, but It also would be nice to have police using PIT and BOX maneuvers instead of just ramming you in the back.
12) Not every peds will report you to the police. There will be an 80% chance to get reported in LS, 50% chance in Paleto Bay and 25% chance in Sandy Shores & Grapeseed. In unpopulated areas like mount chilliad, grand Senora Desert and Palleto Forest you wont get reported at all.
@AidenDem Sir, does this mod improve police chases? I mean if cops don't have the 6th sense anymore so they don't know exactly your location, If there's a cooldown for police helicopters so they do not spawn instantly or if cops lose your sight, they're gonna search you in your last location before hiding etc. Also I heard there's a stupid glitch Rockstar have not patched which consists of animals being able to call cops.

@AidenDem Thank you for your dedication, gta 5 needs very much a good rework for police ai & wanted system. Good luck with future updates!
