New Update complaints/ideas

    Unless something is bugged, the tiller trailer is useless.
    I'm having to get both the trailer and a Semi cab just to do the same thing as a platform, except with the rest of the update I can make add equipment to make the platform more versatile. The platform, like everything else I can see, can hold 10 equipment (only Heavy Rescue Equipment). The tiller can currently hold 0.

    The tiller should be able to hold some, preferably 20, equipment. The two pieces of equipment it should be able to hold, at a minimum, are Fire Hose (so it can be made into a Quint), and Heavy Rescue Equipment (so it is on par with both a Platform and a Quint). While kind of on this topic, Fire hose should include 250-300 gallons of water. The hose is useless unless you have something on the truck. I don't know of any hydrants that will get you enough pressure to run hose off of for any offensive fire attack.

    Another issue is, while the equipment itself helps, currently Search and Rescue, and Technical Rescue can't be put on the same truck. The issue created is if I wanted 1 truck to be a single-purpose USAR rig I can't. This can be alleviated in two ways I can think of. The first, allow Heavy Rescues to hold 20 equipment.
    The second is "custom" fire apparatus. This would be something where we could select options (each costing both money and "space") so we could have the above USAR rig, an Energy Generator and Light tower on the same rig (possibly with Mobile air to make a Light & Air unit). Certain items could block another, such as I can't have both a light tower and an aerial device. Besides being locked out of options by selecting another, we would also have the "space" limitations to limit us.
    Some of the options available could be, Water tank & hose, Aerial Device, any of the added equipment options, anything else people think of that makes sense.
