Can something be done to where apparatus can be picked up on calls while being moved to a different station? For all the people who do station fills in the game it's a real annoyance that the vehicle has to be in the station to be moved back home or added to a call. If it can just be changed to it being statused available instead of out of service. It makes no sense the way it is now. This has been brought up before as well.
Transfers
-
When transferring an unit from 1 station to an other it's going to be status 6 (out of service) because since won't have a crew on board until you assign a new one from the station that it is being transferred to. Also since units can be transferred to a station 1000's of miles away from it's original station not just across town.

You are making Zero sense. Why would they not have a crew? I really do not think you understand my point. The point of a transfer is to staff a station that is currently tied up with an incident, to provide coverage in that area.

TwistedOyster You're mistaking a vehicle transfer for a stand-by deployment. Transfers are logistical and generally carried out by technicians, not operational personnel. Stand-bys are fully crewed operational vehicles providing coverage where resources have been used at a different incident. The two are categorically not the same.

It sounds like you are trying to setup some sort of move-up system while the in game transfer is more for reassigning units to another station on a long-term basis (yes, it can work in game short term but it really is more about long term movements).
-
Also transferring to cover another area will not work as you need 5o swap a vehicle or pay for another slot and you cant swap a a unit on call as whitchit said they arent real personal they are technicians
-
@TwistedOyster To do what I think your wanting to do try building a staging area. Units that are in a staging area and or headed to it are fully staff and are on stand and can be dispatched as needed. The staging area is good for 24 hrs, but can easily be extended if needed.
