Cancel !backup request - Ghutra - 2020-05-09 23:06
A way for the cop that requested backup but either called by mistake/called but realized he won't need it.
Example: pressing a bind for/typing !backup will work as normal, but pressing/typing !backup again would cancel it.

Not worth any effort. Even if you call by accident (which is pretty rare i think) you can just ask the backup to leave. Apart from that: sharing is caring. You want to join other chases too, so most cops actually call backup not only when „needed“, but rather to share and get called themselves aswell.

think bee is right .. too much effort for something so small ..
ghutra took a good approach .. but as bee says you can ask the backup if he leaves it..

It works if you are a cop requesting to join, but not for a cop requesting backup. Whilst I'm here, I'll give my opinion. The idea seems fairly nice and straight forward. But I don't really ever call backup by accident. I do however sometimes attempt to accept the wrong join request and/or have to back out quickly to chase someone else, but when you've been chasing someone for at least 2 mins, I don't think this is the case. I'll be voting no on this.

This is the most useful part of it, but I don't ever feel inconvenienced if a chase ends before I arrive. I'd rather take a chance of actually catching up and getting that XP without the fear of someone cancelling it when I'm a few metres away and the insim is updating.
