Fire Vehicle Capacity & Equipment Size Mismatch

  • Hello MissionChief team,

    Upon closer inspection, it appears there are multiple vehicle capacity & equipment size mismatches currently showing in game for fire vehicles. I don't know if this is due to the new trailer update that dropped a few weeks ago or if this has been going on longer.

    See the table below for complete details.

    Also, at one point, the Type 3 engine had capacity (although I don't remember if it was 10 or 20). I can think of at least three departments in our county alone that use combination Type 1/3 engines, so having that capacity back would be nice for more realism.

    If you need screenshots for proof, I can provide those.

    Thanks for all you do!

  • This has been ongoing for a long time and has been unaddressed. The trailer update PARTIALLY fixed the type 5 engines, by giving them a capacity of 10, but the lists in equipment descriptions doesn't match up because the items require more than 10 capacity.

    I got tired of asking them to fix it.

    All stations are placed on actual stations. Goal is to cover every station.

    Well...I figured while it's not seriously game-breaking, at least there's a neat table to show them exactly what needs fixing in the future. As long as it gets into their bug tracker.

  • Bump. Unresolved.
