• the "Basic" feature set lets you change many otherwise hard-coded values of the game, and
  
• the "Advanced" feature set lets you change cop-spawning behaviour and tables without limits.
  

What does the "Basic" feature set do?

• at what time interval you gain passive bounty,
  
• the maximum combo-bounty multiplier for destroying cops quickly,
  
• how quickly and below what distance from cops the red "BUSTED" bar fills,
  
• how quickly the green "EVADE" bar fills once all cops have lost sight of you,
  
• whether player-damaged cop vehicles are destroyed instantly if flipped over,
  
• when exactly (if at all) cop vehicles are destroyed regardless of damage if flipped over,
  
• when exactly (if at all) racer vehicles are reset if flipped over,
  
• which ground supports the cops can request in non-player pursuits,
  
• the internal cooldown between non-Strategy roadblock requests,
  
• the internal cooldown between Heavy / LeaderStrategy requests,
  
• when exactly (if at all) and below what distance roadblock vehicles can join pursuits,
  
• whether roadblock vehicles react to racers entering "COOLDOWN" mode and / or hitting spikes,
  
• how HeavyStrategy 3 requests interact with roadblock requests and spawns,
  
• which vehicles spawn in place of the ramming SUVs through HeavyStrategy 3,
  
• which vehicles spawn in place of the roadblock SUVs through HeavyStrategy 4, and
  
• which vehicles spawn in place of Cross and his henchmen through LeaderStrategy 5 / 7.
  

• which notification string the game displays whenever you destroy a given cop vehicle;
  
• which radio callsigns and chatter a given cop vehicle can trigger in player pursuits; and
  
• the selection, order, and length of interactive themes that play during player pursuits.
  

• the helicopter mini-map icon is now always visible whenever a helicopter is active,
  
• helicopters no longer cast static shadows (like cars do) with incorrect placements,
  
• the game is no longer incorrectly biased in how it chooses to make Strategy requests,
  
• Heat levels > 5 are no longer reset back to 5 when you enter free-roam or start an event,
  
• Heat levels > 5 are now shown correctly in menus (requires Binary for missing textures), and
  
• you can no longer get busted due to line-of-sight issues while the green "EVADE" bar fills.
  

What does the "Advanced" feature set do?

• how many chasing cops can (re)spawn without backup once a wave of reinforcements is exhausted,
  
• the global cop-spawn limit for how many chasing cops in total may be active at any given time,
  
• whether spawning decisions for chasing cops are independent of all other pursuit vehicles,
  
• when exactly (if at all) and how many chasing cops from other Heat levels can flee the pursuit,
  
• which vehicles (any amount, with counts and chances) may spawn to chase and search for racers,
  
• which vehicles (same liberties as above) may spawn in non-Strategy roadblocks,
  
• which vehicles (ditto) may spawn as pre-generated cops in scripted events,
  
• which vehicles (without counts) may spawn as free patrols outside pursuits,
  
• which vehicle spawns in place of the regular helicopter,
  
• when exactly (if at all) the helicopter can first spawn in each player pursuit,
  
• when exactly (if at all) the helicopter can respawn if it runs out of fuel,
  
• when exactly (if at all) the helicopter can respawn if it gets wrecked,
  
• when exactly (if at all) the helicopter can rejoin the pursuit early if it loses you,
  
• when exactly (if at all) the helicopter can run out of fuel after each (re)spawn,
  
• the internal cooldown between the helicopter's ramming attempts through HeliStrategy 2,
  
• below what racer speed HeavyStrategy 3 spawns cancel their ramming attempts early,
  
• when exactly (if at all) LeaderStrategy Cross and / or his henchmen become aggressive,
  
• when exactly (if at all) the game can request a new LeaderStrategy once Cross is gone, and
  
• when exactly (if at all) the game can request a new Strategy while another is still active.
  

• non-Strategy roadblock and Heavy / LeaderStrategy requests are no longer disabled in races,
  
• early Strategy despawns or cancellations no longer stall the game from making new requests, and
  
• the engagement count shown above the pursuit board now (accurately) counts chasing cops only.
