Alarms & Regulations Response Bug

  • I’ve recently started using the alarms and regulations which has been very helpful for me. However, the problem right now, is that a lot of the times, I have a battalion very close to the calls, and it sends a battalion that’s half and hour away. In addition, when I have multiple battalions in one station, it only dispatches one and goes to the next closest station.

  • Make sure that your battalion's are "Status 2". I found that they sometimes ended up "Status 6" or unavailable. and make sure that you have enough staff to fill them. I know its tedious work but I found more success making sure all my battalion's to be staffed by 1 rather than 3.

    They all are. I checked all of them, and they all have sufficient staffing, but alarms and regulations is still sending units 10 minutes away when theres a battalion 2 minutes away.

    Have you edited any units to not show the the alarm and response regulations? There’s a tick-box on the unit edit page.

    The system will also select the closest as the crow flies, so if a unit is physically closer but the wrong side of a large river, it will still select that one instead of one slightly further away but with much less travel time.

    I have not edited any units to not show it. All of the calls that I have gotten occur in the city, the station down the block has 3 battalions, and none of the battalions are sent, but instead, a station from a completely different county 10 minutes away has a battalion coming. Even with one battalion. It will most likely send a battalion from far away. It makes no sense.
