Version 1.5 Cops are not allowed to work with criminals in any way under any circumstances. You should not seek revenge kills after a city change.
Shooting range improvements:- The 'mission complete' stats box now shows stats including weapon used, skill increase, new skill percentage and new skill level bracket. Was showing a $25 mission payout before which wasn't meant to be there.
- Will now apply reload animation when player selects a weapon.
- Will now show existing skill levels in weapon selection list.
- Will now hide info popups as they can obstruct the view of the range.
- Fixed players being able to shoot before the first target is down.
- Fixed players' last bullet making the Ammunation world 'scared' and disabling the Ammunation shop menu. Player's weapon set to fist when the mission ends.
- Mission panel will now update instantly when targets are shot, and will now show skill increase throughout the activity. The weapon used will also be shown.
- 'Target(s) eliminated' text is now shown on-screen with a sound effect when targets are taken down.
- Slightly reduced skill gained from shooting range. One round was awarding over 10% skill meaning you'd only have to use it 10 times to max out a gun. Remember that any bullet you fire that hits a player/vehicle increases your skill level by 0.01% also. The shooting range is just meant to be a boost.
- Shooting range now costs $115 to enter. You're sort of paying for extra weapon skill.
Daily objectives:- All references to 'Daily CHALLENGES' have been changed to 'Daily OBJECTIVES' for consistency.
- Daily objectives are now properly reset at midnight GMT exactly. This is to enable more accuracy of the following change.
- Daily objectives will now show how long until they are reset (time until midnight GMT).
- Daily objectives are now displayed in a list dialog rather than in chat.
- Daily objectives now show score reward as well as cash.
- Cash rewards for daily objectives have been slightly reduced.
- You can now request 3 new daily objectives for $500. You must not have completed any of them yet. There is no limit on this. You can keep requesting new challenges indefinitely.
- Players will now be shown the message stating outstanding objectives a couple of seconds after spawn rather than immediately on spawn so they don't get lost in chat or appear before MOTD etc.
- Interaction menu 'Daily objectives' item now shows how many objectives you've completed.
- Once a daily objective is completed, it will now show the player how many other challenges are left to complete and how to access the list.
- Selecting a daily objective from the list will show extra help and guidance on completing the objective. These help texts were always present in the database but never integrated.
- Consecutive daily objective completion days is now shown to players.
- You can toggle the new dialog display off in /settings (display) and go back to using the old chat display if you prefer. You can still request new daily objectives with /newobj this way.
Fishing:- Fishing line will no longer start to become damaged straight away when a fish is hooked if you don't reel it in. It will allow 2 seconds to start reeling.
- If you stop reeling the fish in, it will now take 1 second for the line to start being damaged again. This was previously half a second.
- It is now made clear to the player why the line is being damaged.
- When a fish is caught and needs to be reeled in, the weight of the fish is now shown on-screen.
- Heavier fish must be reeled in more slowly to avoid damaging the line. You can no longer spam the spacebar at light speed or use keybinds to instantly reel in a fish.
- Fishing line will now be reeled in slightly faster with each tap due to new limit on how fast it can be tapped.
- Fish will now bite the line a little sooner, especially if baited.

- Players that punch a player (Assault) and then shoot a player (Assault with a deadly weapon) were not being charged for the second crime - they should have been.
- When your wanted level increases, it now shows an explanation of that wanted level. For example 'Wanted level: 5 - Major felon (Arrestable)'.
Fixes and improvements to the clothing inventory and editing systems:- Clothes purchasing menu will no longer close when attempting to purchase an item that is already owned.
- Changing bone while editing an item will no longer show the attachment editor interface on top of the dialog.
- Pressing ESC while selecting to change bone in the editor will no longer end editing, just cancel the bone change and return to the editor.
- When wearing an item, the bone previously used will be highlighted green. Selecting that bone will use previously used offsets.

- You can no longer waste money re-learning the same fighting style at a gym.

- If a medic offers to heal a player and then that player attacks someone (or gets attacked) and then accepts the service, it now states to the medic that they cannot be healed due to the attack, not that they rejected the service.
- /achievements will now show color highlighting to denote none, partial or full completion of categories just like the achivements inside categories. Will also show total tiers/completion at the bottom rather than in the dialog caption (not enough room).
