Thanks fornthe reply.

Greatful for the addition but just feel the education side is a bit messed up. Yeah correct courses ect for the pods (we'll excuse that there are pods missing certain ones as that would screw us even more). I can manage by training PM crews in everything it's just a pain really. Would have been better just to have PM crew drop off pod at scene to be used by the trained staff there, but hey it will do as is. We can work around it.

If we are working like British crews, the crews the are mobilised on the appliance are normally trained that specialist Pod for example, that’s why HVP crew arriving are the only ones to touch the pod and have dedicated kit as they are trained, same with command support & Hazardous materials. Once on scene officers can normally support with it as they have advanced capabilities but for your standard firefighter unless asked tend to opt out of working with the equipment due to them not being trained in that field.

Hope that answers your question. Although I do understand your frustration with 3x training and hopefully we can arrange a middle ground that suits all parties.

I’m discovering more and more missions which just have completely backwards unit requirements. To be honest I think every mission needs to be updated. I understand devs are working hard to advance the game but it’s better to have strong foundations before adding more.

For example thatched cottage fires require a lot of units, why? Back pain very frequently requires HEMS.

These are just two missions of the top of my head but there are many more that have ridiculous units requests

regarding officers at thatched fires they are currently at a realistic level & in most cases can be higher in real life, you’ve got to consider you’ve got 8 pumping appliances + specialist appliances and an incident of that size would of been sectioned into smaller chunks with officers in command officers for monitoring etc. So just to put it into perspective quite a few brigades on reports of a thatched fire automatically add 6 pumping appliances and multiple officers as a pre determined attendance due to such high risk thatched fires can propose with spread, environmental impacts & incident duration.

I accept that it can not be 100% realistic.

However just now this current idea on complex buildings only favours those players that are not attempting any sort of realism what so ever.

For those of us trying to play as realistically as possible within the parameters of the game this building complex is not worth the costs involved as it provides no benefits that realistically help.

For it to be of any use to players it needs to be changed so that the condition of maxed out stations is reduced to stations to level 10 or 15 as that would realistically be more representative of what the majority of players are working too just now.

In theory you could introduce a watch system using response times in the stations but for that to fully work you quadruple the units needed and that is unrealistic but it is what some are doing and they would benefit from this current complex idea the most and are therefore playing unrealistically due to the number of units they have compared to reality as they have tried to create watches.

The complex idea is great in principle but an absolute failure in how it's being implemented. Just now I know not many will be bothering with it unless major changes are made. The reduction in price is just a joke and an attempt to make it look better the additional spaces to are not worth it either. It still works our cheaper and more logical to build a new station than build a building complex.

just curious as to what you mean within your fourth paragraph in saying “you will need quadruple the units”?

I typically send full DCA response so if it says 40 it gets 40 DCA assigned, all my ambulances are critical care trained.

I typically have stand down ems on, so it just cancels what's not needed.

Don't have any GP, RRV or Fitst Responders in main setup. I use first responders only for going to shared calls.

What do you mean first responders for calls? do you have them in your area and state 6 unless needed or just send them to only alliance calls? interested to know cause everybody plays different.

Have you got PNG versions of still blues?

Look Amazing But try making them Bit bigger so it shows all detail

I am the person you are on about, and working in the fire service and being on fire grounds I believe this is a fair amount of units & officers required.

very nice looking and detailed maybe make them a bit more to showcase the full detail?

Lokks very nice!

Doesn't this normally happen when the person who created the alliance orginally doesn't play for over 2 months and classes as inactive?

As on phone can’t tell are these real images cut out or made graphics?

Would Love to see this Happen as think it brings a whole new aspect to the game

Couple things:

1. When ambulances have treated patients how would it send ambulances to hospital with either right department or enough space?

2.What about when you've ran out of a required appliance eg Water Tanker or other specials? would it pre-Queue them onto missions or not complete it?

3.what about completing timed missions?

this was last posted on in 2017 so im guessing not

personally think all are fine the way they are except HEMS that I agree with

Uk crews usually don't stay at hospitals they tend to return to stations to refill the used equipment then move onto calls

copyright could be a issue I guess?

But realistically would you ever see a helicopter ever do that? Not only due to fact that it will cost a bomb in fuel but also usage on the vehicle etc.

wikipedia has them all on

that shouldn't be allowed as its there work and not fair use
