I added player-seeking hit squads to GTA 5, though the billion other mods I have installed keep getting in their way

Grand Theft Auto 5 players have discovered a mod that adds player-seeking hit squads to the game. This mod, Ambient Hit Squads, is inspired by Red Dead Redemption 2 and is designed to dispatch armed men to eliminate players as they explore the game's world. The mod generally functions as intended within a version of GTA 5 already burdened by numerous other mods.

While the hitmen successfully navigate the game's environment, they face additional challenges. Ground-based hitmen pose no significant obstacle, as the player can simply shoot them with a car gun. However, helicopters prove to be a more problematic target due to the mod's conflicting directives, causing these airborne assassins to oscillate erratically while attempting to pursue the player. This results in a comical and humorous effect, making the helicopters appear as if they are piloted by inebriated individuals.
