Firearms Regulation

Description
This script restricts weapons to certain peds in order to simulate a scenario of having strict gun laws in San Andreas. Unlike other scripts, this script only removes weapons once, allowing weapons to be added by script after weapons are being removed.

Using LSPDFR with this script is not supported. Only standalone usage is supported by this script. This is due to limitations since this script cannot communicate with LSPDFR and thus might causing troubles.

Features

• Remove weapons from most peds
• Allow few gang members have weapons (they are not removed, but if you want them have guns they must have them already, game must given them first...) (chance & groups considered are configurable in INI)
• Allow all SWAT team members have weapons (configurable in INI)
• Allow cops to respond with weapons after certain wanted level (configurable in INI)

Requirements

• ScriptHookV by Alexander Blade
• ScriptHookV .NET by crosire and it's contributors

How to Install
Copy everthing in To Game Folder folder to your GTA V install folder (e.g. where your **GTA5.exe** was located).

Known Issues

• If a script or mission spawns peds with weapons without setting them as persistent, they will likely get removed. This is due to game limitations.
  Note that due to script only removes weapons for once dismissing peds are ok.

You can report more issues at either the issue tracker, or in the comments section.
