    1. AI Update Part 2: AI Backup + New Light Bar DLC Out Now
    2.  
    3. Hello all,
    4.  
    5. I'm happy to announce that the AI Update Part 2: AI Backup is out now! This update expands and improves on the recently introduced AI backup system by introducing the ability to use a walkie talkie to call for backup while you are out and about in the open world.
    6.  
    7. This update also lets you call for backup from police, fire or EMS departments, regardless of the department you're playing at the time.
    8.  
    9.  
    10. Emergency Response Lightbar Collection available now
    11.

    13.

    21.  
    22. New
    23. - Light patterns on Mod.io (Add prefix Lights_ to exported file, example: Lights_My Mod Name.txt and upload as .zip (no folders))
    24. - Dispatch now give calls around players (1300m radius), the range limit is ignored when using next mission command [/nm_]
    25. - Sheriff partner character
    26. - More props for pedestrian crossings in City East, Cod Town, Beach Town and City Marina
    27. - Partners and backup units now show on minimap and full map UI
    28.  
    29. Traffic Spawner Improvements
    30. - New waypoint finder around player (might improve multiplayer lag with 6+ players)
    31. - Using optimized waypoint finder the spawner will try to use free spots to spawn more traffic
    32. - Distanced traffic optimization (based on distance it will turn off AI driver character or wheel animations)
    33. - Pedestrian waypoints added in City East, Port and Beach Town Pier
    34.  
    35. Pedestrian and Traffic Fixes
    36. - NPC loading improved to fix loading hickups at game start and when loading missions (The NPC pool now has 60 pedestrians which should be enough for default pedestrian count and missions, if for custom missions need more, it may load more pedestrians but could cause some hickups)
    37. - NPC pedestrian pooling was broken and during gameplay new pedestrians were created for each spawn causing memory increase over time and possible crashes or lag on multiplayer
    38. - NPC in missions now despawn when player cancel the mission and leave area
    39. - NPC pedestrians no longer stop spawning after a while
    40. - When loading a game, now only the host creates NPC pedestrians and traffic, solving an issue with clients loading duplicate NPCs and traffic unnecessarily, causing lag for all players and memory increase
    41. - Sorting and fixes for multiplayer entity ID mismatch causing random sync issues and lag while Photon tried to fix it with destroying NPC clones and creating new instances
    42. - Pedestrians no longer spawn partially in the ground while loading before they start walking
    43. - Pedestrians no longer walk around with a gun floating in front of their head
    44. - Function for missing traffic lights in City East and Beach Town
    45.  
    46. Fixes
    47. - Multiplayer car seat rotation sync fix for players
    48. - In multiplayer sometimes pedestrians stopped walking
    49. - Toggle auto-off sirens setting now saves when you get out of your vehicle
    50. - On each game load and each vehicle menu launch, customized siren slots previously got messed up
    51. - Beach Town pier poles rendering fix
    52. - Hovering parked cars aligned with ground in Beach Town and Cod Town
    53. - Parked cars are now using optimized traffic car models
    54. - Changed default setting for parked cars from Low to Medium when creating a game
    55. - Changed default vehicles for new players (SUV for police and Engine for firefighters)
    56. - Map buildings and roads were previously loaded duplicate on CPU
