Enhanced Law Enforcement

Law Enforcement Enhancement - Update Notes

New Features

Night Sentry System: Added sentries that spawn throughout the city at 9PM. These are deployed differently than the fixed guards at Taco Ticklers.

Improved Spawn Locations: Police officers now spawn in more diverse locations across all districts.

Technical Improvements

Performance Optimization: Improved framerate - now achieving 30+ FPS on late-game saves and up to 60 FPS on worlds with fewer active tasks using default configuration.

Upgraded Framework: Updated from.NET 4.2 to.NET 6.0 for better performance and compatibility.

New Officer Stuck Prevention: Implemented additional fixes for officers getting stuck (WIP).

Reduced Console Spam: Disabled development logging by default (can be toggled in config files).

Configuration Updates

New Config Filename: Changed generated config name to law_user_config.json (You can safely ignore law_enforcement_settings.json file, which will be merged in the next update).

Balanced Default Settings: Adjusted default values to be more optimized for gameplay and performance.

Known Issues

Officer Davis Persistence: Despite removing him from the spawn pool, Officer Davis continues to appear. Our efforts to permanently remove him continue.

Aerial Officers: Officers may rarely spawn in the air. We're still investigating this issue.

Frozen Officers: Sometimes spawned officers remain frozen. The cleanup system will eventually detect and fix them, but it might take 1-2 minutes.

Acknowledgments

Special thanks to Estonia for their ModdingUtility mod, which allowed me to log exact coordinates for the new spawn locations used in this update.

Note: This mod is being developed through hands-on learning, so feedback is highly appreciated!
