Hey team,
Not sure if this is a bug but thought I’d raise it incase it is.
The second version of subject ejected from mva says it requires a police helicopter.
Just wanting to check if this is right or needs changing.
Thanks

Firstly let me preface this by saying that upon checking the coding spreadsheet that i didnt code this mission, (i code using a tool which puts out code in specific manner and the coding in this case does not match that) due to having had 2 major surgeries in the last couple of months and not being able to concentrate enough to code at the time. ( I have since coded two new different missions for upcoming weeks). The mission idea ( taken directly from the mission suggestion thread) was also written by a player who doesn't play on this platform so between me and whomever coded it this wasn't picked up.
However in my experience if someone has been ejected, they can and have ended up in all sorts of weird and wonderful places sometimes significantly far from the vehicle so aircraft with heat sensors and other technical equipment attached to such aircraft as a Police helicopter would be useful if a primary and even secondary search has failed to locate them.
Having said that if more people feel strongly that its out of place i can put in an application to have it changed, Just be aware there is a process to follow and the change will take time to implement.
I'd recommend removing the PD Helo from the mission, especially as that mission has a POI requirement of a Gas Station.
I think PD Helo usage in case of an MVC Ejection would be very limited and generally would require a prolonged missing patient (think if the helo is not already in the air, it would need time to get in the air and attend the scene).
I'm thinking that it should be Air Ambulance attending these scenes (Field Trauma Triage) and not PD Helo.
Imo the poi shouldn't exist
Completely understand it will be a process to implement the change

It was your mission so whoever coded it just used the information you put on it lol
Ok upon further inspection I think i know whats happened. The developers have been adding what they call "missions with overlays" to our newer missions regardless of who has coded what. So for newer players with "basic" stations they get the typical vehicle type requirements. However, more advanced players with things like the senior sergeant expansion, SES and police helicopters that triggers the advanced requirements and these are then added to that mission . Basically they think if you have them they should be getting utilised. ( Dont worry i had to have this explained to me the first couple of times too)
I will reach out to who i think coded the mission to confirm and if this is the case what can be done about it but this is the new "normal", I'm not sure if you've noticed until now. You also get compensated a whole lot more for having specialised vehicles now, so requesting a change ( if it can be changed) will likely result in a whole rework of the mission payout structure for that mission also.
Here are some more examples
And from my partners account who does not have any specialised vehicles
Thanks Katnip, all that info is very intriguing.
The police heli seemed odd that was the only reason I thought I’d raise it.
If it’s not a bug or mistake then there would be no need to change it.
Appreciate you passing on the information
I believe, for the rarity that a police helo would be required for such a mission, it should be removed (in my opinion).
It was your mission so whoever coded it just used the information you put on it lol
I don't believe I did.
Edit: I did suggest it on the Australian Forum but I wrote "flying" instead of "fleeing" lol I put it with no poi and the devs added the gas station poi on their own accord lol could the poi be changed?

Has nothing to do with the POI thats besides the point the issue was the heli which you wrote lol

Yeah I wanted a heli for a "Fleeing suspect form MVA not a flying form MVA made a big typo 🤦 so I'd admit that this is 100% my fault and I apologise for that
Any update on this mission getting fixed?
