📋 About This Mod

Be careful when walking the streets — there's always a chance a faction might discover your location and send their men after you.

You never know when it might happen, so watch your step and always have an escape route nearby. This mod is inspired by the Fixers from Watch Dogs 1, who could randomly cross paths with you — and if they spotted you, the chase was on.

Now, as you walk through the streets, there's a customizable probability (adjustable in the script) that a gang will detect your location and come after you.

Be warned: sometimes two gangs might show up at once. While one may confront you with a not-so-friendly conversation, the other could arrive with blood in their eyes — leading to a full-blown turf war while you scramble to escape. I guarantee this is extreme fun — pure chaos in the best way!

You will need the James Lurk Edition scripthook.

The installation follows the same procedure as the others:

put the file on WATCH_DOGS2\bin\ScriptHook\data\scripts\trainer\menu

Add this line to menu.lua: include("Ambush_Mod.lua")
