Elite Interceptor Pack

Rockport PD has had it and have started rolling out their new Elite Units. They are much harder to take out than the normal cars and have no problem putting their own backup into the wall to get at fleeing racers.

Notes:
-Unlimiter is required: https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/688
-ZPatch for Most Wanted is required: https://zolika1351.pages.dev/mods/nfsmwpatch
-For more fun, install Extra Options and enable PursuitActionMode: https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/43
-Spike strips are ineffective on Normal difficulty and higher due to how the cop damage works
-Finally figured out why the damage wasn't working, should be fine now
-!!THIS MOD DELETES AND OVERWRITES PURSUIT DATA AT RESET/UNINSTALL AND MAY BE INCOMPATIBLE WITH OTHER PURSUIT MODS!!
-Forgot to cap the max heat level for Super Easy-Normal, this is now fixed. Heat levels will be normal until Blacklist 2.

Why won't elite units respawn even though they are already in the scripts?

Thanks for the feedback. Are you asking about the nightmare difficulty?

I have a request, could you make a version without the health that would be great for adding it to other mods as well, so you can use the mod with free roam as you mentioned the health bar could cause crashes so a second version without this mechanic would be great! Already tested it and love it!
