[OPEN] [GTW] Cannot arrest suspect if suspect is also a police officer

[crinrict]

@83bienchen Yes, this was fixed before but there were still reports coming in after it was fixed, unfortunately.

I don't know what the exact current status is but as long as there's no patch notes or no one from EA coming saying it's fixed, this remains an open issue.

There are probably a lot of threads that have been fixed by now but usually if there's still me toos and people coming in saying they have the issue, something is off.

@RealGinjaNinja I'm curious, are you using mods ?

I am not using any mods. I just started messing around with the testing cheats and ended up finding the solution I did that works. I doubt it prevented or will prevent any future instance of this issue, but it's a solution you can fix on the spot in game without entering your game files or having to do anything drastic or long to do. So I'm hoping enough noise will be made that a patch will come out, but this solution isn't too annoying for me to have to do beyond the fact that I have to deal with this issue at all.

I found this thread while googling as I also had this issue and wanted to share another way to get around this glitch! If you're using MC Command Center, follow these steps for my method:

Click the suspect and select the option to open the MC Command Center Panel

Click 'MC Cheats'

Click 'Cheat Sim Info'

Click 'Career Cheats...'

Click 'Quit Job'

This will make the sim quit their career instantly on the spot. In my case it allowed the "Arrest" and "Ask about Suspect" to pop up immediately afterwards and I was able to successfully arrest the suspect.

@RealGinjaNinja Thanks for the confirmation. I did see it but didn't answer. Sorry about that :D
