= Police =

'''Police''' is one of the main CIT sides. Police track wanted players, arrest or kill criminals, defend robberies and [[Criminal]] [[Events]], and use law tools such as the Police Computer, taser, nightstick, APB system, AI partner, and spike strips.




== Quick start ==

Police is the law side. The basic loop is:

# take a law job
# open [[Police Computer]] with `F5`
# track wanted players
# send them to [[Jail]] by killing them or arresting them with the nightstick

Useful first commands:

<div class="cit-table-scroll">
{| class="wikitable"
! Command or key
! Use
! Notes
|-
| `F5`
| Opens the [[Police Computer]]
| Shows wanted players, filters, tracking, and law stats.
|-
| `/wl`
| Shows wanted stars and the top `3` most wanted players
| Useful for checking wanted status.
|-
| `/apb`
| Shows current [[APB]] targets and locations
| Cops and criminals can both use it.
|-
| `/trackapbs`
| Tracks current APBs
| Use it again to stop tracking.
|-
| `/e <message>`
| Emergency Chat
| Law side coordination.
|}
</div>
== Law jobs ==

<div class="cit-table-scroll">

|-
| [[Police Officer]]
| `LSPD`, `SFPD`, or [[Law Farm]]
| New players can use `/lspd`. At `100,000` law points, use `/go Police Officer`.
|-
| [[Traffic Officer]]
| `LSPD`
| Unlocks at `50` arrests. At `100,000` Arrest Points, use `/go Traffic Officer`.
|-
| [[Police Detective]]
| `LSPD`
| Unlocks at `150` arrests. At `100,000` Arrest Points, use `/go Police Detective`.
|-
| [[Bomb Disposal]]
| Inside `LSPD`
| Unlocks at `300` arrests. At `100,000` Arrest Points, use `/go Bomb Disposal`.
|-
| [[Police Medic]]
| Inside `LSPD`
| Use `/go Police Medic` if the Police side is unlocked.
|-
| [[Gang Intervention Unit]]
| Inside `LSPD`
| Use `/go giu` if you already have law `/go` access.
|}
</div>
== Limits and important rules ==

* The `/go Police Officer` GUI does not open if a wanted criminal is too close.
* Cops spawn with free armor only when danger level is `2` or higher.
* Cops in the main dimension are auto off duty after more than `10` minutes AFK.
* Cops cannot go AFK when a wanted player is within `100` meters.
* Cops who enter an [[Armed Robbery]] area while using Jetpack are frozen.
* Wanted players cannot enter vehicles driven by police.
* Police can enter a locked house if a wanted criminal is inside.
* Police cannot place [[Stingers]] within `50` meters of an active Armed Robbery.
* Police cannot teleport to the [[Criminal Villa]]. If no wanted criminals are there and criminals ask police to leave, police must leave.

</div>
== Arrests and jail ==

The police nightstick arrests non violent wanted players. Hit the target `3` times, then take them to the nearest police station unless they use `/surrender`.

Police can also kill wanted criminals. Killing a wanted criminal counts the same as arresting them.

Jail fine cost per second remaining is based on minutes played divided by `3000`, with a `$10` minimum per second. `/payjailfine` needs cash in hand. [[Bank]] money does not work for that fine.

== APB ==

`APB` means `All Points Bulletin`.

<div class="cit-table-scroll">
{| class="wikitable"
! APB slot
! Wanted Points threshold
|-
| First
| `1000`
|-
| Second
| `1100`
|-
| Third
| `1200`
|}
</div>
Both cops and criminals can see APB alerts. `/apb` shows the target, location, and whether the target is inside an Armed Robbery. An APB is removed when the target is arrested, dies, or quits while a cop is nearby.

== Kill and arrest payout ==

[[CIT Police Kill Reward Calculator]] estimates the money from killing or jailing a wanted player. It uses `Wanted Points`, `[[Danger Level]]`, `Police Level`, `[[Bounty]] / Hit amount`, `GIU half pay`, `Your payout share`, and `Taser split`.

The bounty or hit amount is counted separately from the normal police payout.

The base police kill or arrest payout formula is:

`floor(wantedPoints * 70 * dangerLevel) + 5000`

At danger level `1.0`, this is `$70` per Wanted Point plus `$5,000`, before police level bonuses, GIU reduction, assist splits, taser splits, and the payout cap.

For one normal cop with no assists, no taser split, no police level bonus, no `GIU` reduction, and danger level `1.0`:

<div class="cit-table-scroll">
{| class="wikitable"
! Wanted Points
! Formula
! Payout
! Effective per point
|-
| `30`
| `30 * 70 + 5000`
| `$7,100`
| `$236.67`
|-
| `100`
| `100 * 70 + 5000`
| `$12,000`
| `$120.00`
|-
| `500`
| `500 * 70 + 5000`
| `$40,000`
| `$80.00`
|-
| `1000`
| capped
| `$50,000` cap
| `$50.00`
|}
</div>
The cap means high wanted payouts stop at `$50,000` before `GIU` reduction.

<div class="cit-table-scroll">
{| class="wikitable"
! Rule
! Value
|-
| Normal payout cap
| `$50,000`
|-
| GIU pay
| Half pay and half registered wanted level credit
|-
| GIU effective max payout
| `$25,000`
|-
| Taser split
| Taser officer gets `50%`, capped at `$25,000`
|}
</div>
Police level can multiply the payout before the cap:

<div class="cit-table-scroll">
{| class="wikitable"
! Police Level
! Multiplier
|-
| `> 51`
| `1.40x`
|-
| `> 41`
| `1.30x`
|-
| `> 31`
| `1.20x`
|-
| `> 21`
| `1.10x`
|-
| `> 11`
| `1.05x`
|-
| `<= 11`
| `1.00x`
|}
</div>
After that, the result is capped at `$50,000`.

If the payout is split by damagers:

<div class="cit-table-scroll">
{| class="wikitable"
! Situation
! Killer gets
! Assistant gets
|-
| Killer is only damager
| `100%`
| `n/a`
|-
| `2` total damagers
| `50%`
| `50%`
|-
| `3` total damagers
| Killer `50%`
| each non killer `25%`
|-
| `4+` total damagers
| Killer `50%`
| each non killer `17%`
|}
</div>
Only players currently in Police Service get the assist payout. Non police damagers can still reduce the percentage paid to police.

== Police locations ==

<div class="cit-table-scroll">
{| class="wikitable"
! Location
! Use
|-
| [[LSPD]]
| Main [[Los Santos]] police headquarters, police jobs, law tools, yard utilities, and vehicle spawns.
