Temporary Locations

  • Hi,
    I think it would be awesome to be able to add a Temporary Cover Location for each vehicle.
    For example, if i had a large call, such as a structural collapse, I would like to be able to say move at least one appliance from another station to the affected area to cover it, in case there are any more calls received. When setting a unit for cover, you should also have an option to have it automatically return to its original station when either

    • The vehicle it is covering becomes Status 1 (Clear and Available)
    • Or the vehicle it is covering becomes Status 2 (Available In Quarters)

    Any ideas/opinions?

  • It's been discussed before and a sort of solution saw the introduction of the staging areas. Not the same thing but my understanding was the German version wanted the staging area and to provide some solution to what you have suggested we agreed to implement them. I can't say if exactly what you have mentioned will be looked into anytime soon but is sitting on our list of popular suggestions.
