K9 Drug Dog Sparks False CP Raids

[You Are Foolish]

Category:

Bug

Priority:

Medium

Description:

The drug dog will see plots and entities that don't exist and no one else can see that also cannot be interacted with or destroyed.

How to reproduce:

I have a theory that the method of destruction of the plots has something to do with persistent images through walls. I never destroyed any of the plots with the dog bite attack, but many of the CPs in the the raid previously had destroyed planters in those same spots with non-class spawned weapons. Even if Foul was just lying and covering his ass, we still had a confirmed case of it happening on the raid prior which can be vetted by Shek Wes. I believe Foul was telling the truth being a server moderator. Once he comes up with his footage we can better understand it.

We had a bug earlier on the DarkRP server where I detected drugs as Police K9 in planters that only I could see. We raided a previously occupied building as CPs and no one else could see the farm plot entities or plants. It was the same building we had raided successfully prior and had thought they set up shop again. We considered it a one-off and forgot about it after having only encountered it once out of the 12 or so drug raids we had done. This became an issue later on. The NEXT building we raided had a server mod named Foul basing in it. I detected a drug plant through the wall and we started a raid. We weren't able to break through the defenses and he was unwilling to share his side of it when I came back to try to recreate it or figure out why it had occurred. This bug is an issue for the obvious reasons of causing unnecessary raids to happen. I believe all the planters (if they ever existed) in the building were his. There were no other owners on the only entrance to the building. He claimed to have a recording of the encounter and I have mine including where I stopped everyone pre-warrant and double-checked there was at least a drug plant in the building and not just plots. If he could be convinced to share his footage I think a better picture could be painted and better theories made. He was rather upset about it at the time talking about "fail warrants" and "f for cps." I think now that he's forgotten about it and settled down we can actually look at what happened. Unfortunately I don't have footage of the one off event, but it wasn't really an exciting thing to see a bug we didn't really think about biting us in the ass later. The footage I do have just pertains to the second raid and I only have it in order to protect myself and the other CP's from retaliation. Later into the video you can see the dialogue. You may have to view on YouTube to see the 1080p version. Here is my side of it:

So when yall showed up I saw you guys because of in game voice chat raduis. But we had nothing in our plots. i dont think i have the logs for it and I don't have the video anymore. This would need to be looked at through archives, Either way the warrants I was just like " what?" because they did not make sense to me cause the warrant was for havin drugs but I didnt have any planted or anything. As well in that video it doesnt show any drugs. wheres the vid for the other side?

cocaine plant  is kinda hard to see in video. I didn't think I needed every angle. Only one building with one owner. Didn't need to verify who owned the plots. They can be bought from other people and you were the only owner on the door. It was on building that only you owned. Didn't think I was looking at a bug again at the time. The only reason I have this is shadowplay.
