Since the release a few players have reported issues with the dog attacking others on the server, this is an unfortunate thing that we cannot fix ourselves. However, the solution for server owners and developers is extremely easy and can be one of the following issues.
Incorrect Dog Type
We have purposely put types besides the dogs due to GTAs default meta for the animals meaning that only the German Shepherd is able to be set to attack players. We frankly don’t know why this is the case but the simple solution is to ensure that you are using the German Shepherd dog when attempting to use the dog’s attack function on players.
CalmAI
We understand that many servers utilise CalmAI by default blocks the dog from being able to attack the other peds due to the configuration the simple way to check if this is the cause of issues is by disabling CalmAI, restarting the server and trying again. Most CalmAI scripts are easy to edit to remove the block on dogs.
Aiming
The default way that the dog knows who to attack is by the player aiming unfortunately with the native you need to ensure that you have the red reticle that would exist if you were able to hit the ped with that you are aiming with. If this is not there the Native will sometimes not pick up on the person which is a FiveM thing.
