So can prisons only be built individually and not as using alliance funds anymore?

Very small Alliance that is open for new members...open to anywhere in North America that is not already taken. Easier to chat person to person so search for us or just message me here if interested
-
Why cant the heavy rescue with boat carry SAR equipment?.
-
If the creator / admin of an alliance is deleted from the alliance will the rest of the alliance still exist, or does the original account need to stay there?
-
Any chance there is a possibility at some time that you have the option of turning off individual POI?
I know you can disable all POI except your own but that creates a ton of work on a big account in the sense that you then need to put in every single POI that you want to use. It is nice that you can use the POI that others place but when they are clearly incorrect it would be nice if we just disable them. I get airport stuff and chemical stuff and water stuff in residential areas.
It’s not a huge deal as a mission is a mission. But it is a little disheartening when I am trying so hard to be realistic.
Thanks. -
its literally only these two missions & the swat SUV doesnt count, in a pursuit you’d more likely get an SUV anyway due to speed /:
Yup annoys me too. Armoured vehicles don’t pursue

depends on the department, At LA County there is a shift at 1 station on their Light Force that everyone is on the Quint and the Engine responds with only the Engineer.
That is how LA County deploys a resource. It has nothing to do with if the apparatus is a quint or a dry ladder.
what makes a quint a quint is the addition of a water tank and a pump.
A dry ladder can have a crew of 1 or 6 and some places maybe more. No different for a quint.
Again the term “quint” has nothing to do with crew size -
Looks like it just started
-
The difference between a platform and a quint in real life is the addition of water and a pump. The manpower is the same. It would be nice if the game could reflect this.
-
It would be nice when these new updates are released that there is a way to update units already owned.
I already have tactical rescue trucks, now I need to completely replace them all with new ones with boats, and the current ones have no trade in value or anything. It would be nice for this to be addressed. -
Ok......just some clarification for my troubled mind? I have played for going on 3 yrs and in that time have built out most of Florida now. However, I only have one (1) dispatch center. No issues with call generation. "If" I now add more centers will units still show up as closest in jurisdictions that each other. As an example Each Center has multiple counties and some counties stations are closer to areas but they are in another Center's area. Will the other units show up? Trying to stick with the Statewide Mutual Aid as it exists in Florida so I have resisted adding more centers because I was not sure how or if it allowed units to cross dispatcher center availabilities?. I hope that question is clear as mud and thanks for the answers in advance.
The game has worked fine with one, but the problem I am having now is when I go to that center to check extensions or units, those tabs never load and i am "assuming" that relates the huge amount of "stuff" assigned to that one dispatch center. All the other "tabs" in the center work?
Yes. Should recommend the closest units regardless of their assigned dispatch center

You sure about it transporting patients?

I suppose in rural areas the chief of dept might be there (opposed to a battalion chief) so maybe use the mcv for the chief instead of a BC

Interesting... I feel like I've had Foam Trailers not fulfill the requirement but maybe I'm crazy.
As far as Mobile Commands, in the US they are very rarely deployed. Missions such as:
Commercial Fire
Unknown Tanker Spill
Fire in an Office Building
Fire on Farm Medium/Large
Museum Fire
Etc.
Should not require an MCV. In the US most of these would be a simple Commercial Structure Fire response, which rarely requires an MCV. For those who are attempting realistic setups where there are only 1/2 MCVs in an entire region this extremely taxing.
I use Battalion Chiefs for Battalion chiefs and MCV for Division Chiefs or City Wide Tour Commanders to satisfy the MCV requirements

I find small fire stations work for most of my stations. Not many North American fire stations have more than 5 units. For the ones that do buy bigger. For the others don’t.

1. Build Police Station
2. Name police station KiCkApOo Highway Patrol
3. Change name of police car in station to KiCkApOo Highway Patrol 1
4. Fill in “Highway Patrol” in the own vehicle category section
5. Click “only dispatch vehicle as own class“
6. Click Save
Repeat 1-6 for new buildings. Repeat 2-6 for new units in existing buildings
Boom! Done!
Basically all of my units in 4 different cities with many unique fire/police/EMS vehicles have their own category, it’s not that hard or time consuming. Writing this took longer.

Did you spend any real money to get coins to use? I’ve been playing pretty regular and still a long way from Division Chief, however I do limit myself with dept specific realistic responses
-
I have the resources, but I am saying the resources required for this mission (other than the EMS element are absurd!
My latest reply was more aimed at Nigel and his Riot squad comment. I completely agree that it’s not very realistic to expect ARFF to travel between airports.
-
there is an option - if you also play on a mobile device - you can finish once a day watching a vid
Or send them to a staging area then dispatch them from there. Or click the button on your dispatch centre to only generate calls for the resources you have
-
AS long as it is optional and not mandatory I am ok with it.
100% agree it should be optional. It allows for players to add more realism which is something I think many of us strive for.
