So, the reasoning behind the infinite lives for cops was that it's like just more police coming in, 'reinforcements'. During a bank robbery, or other major crime, police would just continue to pour in from other counties/departments.

I agree with khaos on this if there is 5 raiders and 1 cop and the cop gets killed, that just renders defense useless and the raid is now unstoppable. Bringing up another part of this topic I think that if a cop is killed whilst out of the 20 to30 meter raid zone and the cop comes back the raiders should not kill the cop unless he poses a threat. A instance of this is I responded to a raid got killed than came back fully stripped but the raider ran out of the raid zone and killed me whilst I was nowhere near my loot.

Even stripped of gear if a bandit during a raid sees a cop they are allowed to KOS you. You may pose a threat to them somehow . As long as they are raiding the building you are allowed to go out of rairsone to raid. Even though there should a mechanic where if you go out of raid zone the raid gets called off for you. In real life you wouldn't go across the street to rob a bank.
Something should be added so that way if your the only cop on you get some sort of advantage. Maybe knowing where the raiders are for a short time? This would prevent raiders from hiding in a corner and killing anyone who walks near the building. As a old raider I used to just hide in a corner while my friend raids with a blubtforce and kill anyone who walked into the building.
Long post for my phone. Not sure how this will be on the website
