AI Backup
Any unit can call AI units from the tablet's Backup page, then point at things and give them orders.
Requesting a unit
Open the tablet, go to Backup and press a unit under Request AI unit:
| Unit | Vehicle | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Patrol Unit | Police cruiser, 2 officers | Assists you and follows your orders |
| Ambulance | Ambulance, 2 paramedics | Treats and loads a patient within 40 m of you |
| Fire Engine | Fire truck, 2 firefighters | Puts out a fire within 60 m of you |
| Tow Truck | Flatbed, 1 driver | Tows an empty vehicle within 25 m of you |
| Prisoner Transport | Police transporter, 2 officers | Takes an arrested suspect within 30 m of you to jail |
During a pursuit you also get Pursuit backup: light, medium, heavy and air.
Units drive in with lights on and run red lights while working, like real responders. You can have up to 4 AI units at once, and each type has a 45 second cooldown.
Active units on the Backup page lists who is responding. Press Dismiss to send one away.
Giving orders
Look at a person, a vehicle, a spot on the ground or one of your units, then press J. The orders menu shows what you can do with that target:
| Order | Target |
|---|---|
| Follow me / Resume - follow and assist me | Any unit |
| Hold position | Any unit |
| Move to that spot | A spot |
| Close the road there | A spot (traffic stops within 15 m of the patrol car) |
| Detain that person | A person |
| Take that prisoner to jail | An arrested person |
| Treat that patient / Treat the nearest patient | A patient |
| Tow that vehicle | A vehicle |
| Stand by - wait for my orders | Any unit |
| Dismiss unit | Any unit |
| Pick another unit | When you have more than one |
The unit answers "copy that" and gets to work. A non-compliant person may run when an AI officer detains them (20% chance).
AI crews use the csb_cop model, because many servers' entity blacklists delete the default GTA cop models. Change the models in Config.Backup.
EMS Treatment
Patients on EMS callouts have a real condition. You have to find it, give the right treatments, then get them to a hospital.
The ERS Tablet
Open the tablet with /ers. There is no key by default. Set Config.Keys.tablet (for example 'F7'), or let players bind it in *Settings → Key Bindings → FiveM*.
