Suggestion Title: Police helicopter
Suggestion Description: A police marked helicopter equipped with a camera flown by a pilot and a copilot. Limited to only 1 in use at a time and special certification required for use. Perhaps needs clearance from a supervisor before being used in an incident. I suggest making it difficult to fly to make it only useful when operated by specialist officers and not too unfair
Why should this be added?:
- Would add another layer to police operations such as pursuits, raids, etc. Wouldnt be too unbalanced since it requires good flying and line of sight from the sky to get good information as well as knowing the position of the car to follow. For example a car goes into parker tunnel, Tango units on the ground pursue but the helicopter has lost sight, the car makes a U turn and the ground units need to communicate that or the helicopter will lose the vehicle. This also doesnt overshadow CCTV too much since CCTV can reach underground/places the helicopter cant, and the helicopter wouldnt be able to deploy solely for patrolling. In summary, a police helicopter would add more interesting gameplay and tactics from both the PLPD and criminals, overall improving the classic "Cops vs Crims" aspect of Perpheads.
What negatives could this have?:
- Could be too unfair in the PD's favor if not carefully balanced. Certainly very difficult to program into Gmod as far as I'm aware. Could overshadow CCTV a bit.
What problem would this suggestion solve?: Doesn't exactly solve a problem. But could add more immersion and fun
