you can assign a pod to the PM and then assign staff to the PM that you assigned to the pod.
For Example I have a Hazerdous Material Pod I assigned to a certain Prime mover and then I assign the trained staff to the prime mover
Right, but you have multiple, different PODs and 1 PM for them.
What if you want to send an MDU/MDR (meaning: hazmat) POD, then a HVP?
You'll reassign the personnel? Not very fluent gamewise.

This is the exact problem I will have unless I train in all 3 needed for the pods.
It's just annoying really. I certainly do not want to have to continually reassign staff which would be more annoying.
Couldn't a more fluid system have been done that would make it easier.
A great update and one that is needed but doesn't seem well executed.
Hi would it be possible for missions to require the staff o/s so i can send staff on another unit to cover it (still allowed us to send staff on pms) also not requiring pods
Nice to have the small u/grade, thanks indeed.
Just noticed that foam couldnt be built yet, only ambo, PM. Intended?
cheers.

Would be great to get foam at small stations - even if it’s a smaller foam expansion that only allows CAFS Pumps / Rescue Pumps
I’ve asked if CAFS vehicles can be bought in any station but the foam requirements won’t be active until an extension is bought. I’ve also asked for them to consider building more than one extension but this is a long shot
it's OK, my problem is that the foam extension isnt active for small stations (just the others), and if im right this new stuff should incl foam as it is an expansion as well (?).
Until an extension be built? But you can have only 1 in a small station, so how can i build another +the foam? 
One expansion/small station is a good start, im not complaining.
edit: actually absolutely no extension is possible now
edit2: now its working again
My local station has a prime mover and a incident support unit what unit would this be a hazamt or a ICCU (pod obviously)

Incident Support Unit in Devon & Somerset refers to a BASU unit - so it could likely be that, or an OSU type combination unit

as far as i know, the hazmat PODs are the MDU/MDRs, but correct me.
Could the foam extension be available in small stations, please

I will try and get foam added as an option

ISU I would use as an OSU in game

I agree
as far as i know, the hazmat PODs are the MDU/MDRs, but correct me.
MDU is a general decontamination pod, MDD and MDR are specific decontamination pod, and then every service is different and uses them for different things/carries different things.

I will ask
As I said in a post above, the HVP may get requirements for things like flooding, but for major fires it’s players discretion.
Honestly I’m not sure, I did just tell them this pod should have this education and then they implemented it the way they did so maybe it’s the only possible way with how they have done it.
Could HVP use POI's? Such as lake, river and new ones such as hydrant points? I understand it would take a bit of work but if players have a lake or hydrant POI then certain missions requiring HVP could generate nearby, meaning it's less of a gimmicky appliance and players will have more of an incentive to train and buy them, other than the possible flood missions.

London has over 180,000 fire hydrants alone, hydrant PoIs won’t work, hydrant maps are also classified on the basis of national security so you will not be able to source that information . Water sources for HVP’s may work but I don’t want to put a requirement for HVP’s as not all counties have one which would cause problems for players with.
It’s also not just about sources, how does the game determine that the call needs an HVP, or a Water carrier, or both.
just curious how would i implement foam into my stations when all my units carry foam on them?
Edit: Nevermind bought an expansion for a call in one of my fire districts and it sent the apparatus as foam trucks too. So no new additional units needed.
Are you talking about the American game?

Don't like the idea of restricting calls that use the HVP to places that only have a large body of water.
They can be set up to deliver water to a scene and that can be miles between water source and scene.

HVP could still act as a water carrier, yet unique missions could generate surrounding POI’s, using some sort of ‘HVP only needed when available’?
Just of the top of my head as an example, ‘Large Field fire near lake- HVPU only required when available’. I also understand that hydrant POI’s is an unconventional POI.

Maybe you could do it so it is only required if the player owns 1
