Brief Summary:
As an LSPS officer, we are told to obey traffic laws and ensure that civilians follow in a similar way. This is highly frustrating as the traffic lights of the city take years to change and are only green for a small period of time. This is highly unrealistic for the traffic we have on the islands meaning to travel a mile in the city can take 5-10 minutes. We end up pulling over countless civilians who are always fined or given warnings for traffic offences when everyone knows they are not followed by anyone and even some police.
Detailed Suggestion:
After doing a bit of searching, I found a traffic light script which is designed for FiveM. Not sure if it works well or puts too much strain on the server but I thought it would be worth a mention.
Traffic Light Script: https://forum.cfx.re/t/release-smarttrafficlights-server-side-smart-traffic-lights-v1-00/492770
The Script, if made to work, is server side so can be seen from multiple players and also works with AI. Overall, it makes the lights react a lot more realistically and improves the flow of player traffic.
The Pros:
- Improve RP
- Speed up the game and make it so that Road Traffic Laws can actually be enforced within RP
- Give traffic something to do
The Cons:
- May put too much strain on the server
- Not sure if it actually works
Does this suggestion change balance on the server ?
- Allows for police to enforce traffic laws to a higher standard.
