None of these PDA’s for the game are based off London. Unlike the US, these officers are not Battalion chief vehicles which act as a command post (that’s what the ICCU is for) based out of stations, they are take home vehicles for anyone from the rank of Station Manager and above. Take this other service for example, they have 35 stations across the county and a total of 32 officers cars, most based out of Wholetime stations and headquarters and they are also take home vehicles. These missions that have a high count are based on the most serious of incidents where you will need a TacAd, and other specialist roles that are provided by other levels of incident command.
You will not find a major incident anywhere around the UK that will have 1 or 2 officers cars attend. There were lots and lots of complaints from people on the US game when that was the only platform about how unrealistic it was, we are trying to set out so the UK game is realistic but now players don’t want that either?

As for the colour changes, I didn’t even know they were doing it. I also don’t control what’s posted on the Facebook so I thought I would be courteous and at least get some information out to people, guess that was wrong as well

@TACRfan I reckon majority of players appreciate the realism, we also appreciate the work you put in keeping us updated with the forums, its good to get a bit of an insider view, keep up the good work mate

Heavy rescues and SWAT, I have 6 swat and every so often ill just get slammed with calls that I need SWAT for

you only have 3 employees in your station, you will need to hire more people, the "2" next to the ambulance only indicates how many staff your ambo can take not how many it has in it

I think that for particular missions type 5 and 7 engines should count as engines
missions such as,
- Burning motorbike
- burning grass
- Burning leaves
- bulk trash fire
- bale of straw fire
- tree on road
- little field fire
- little wildfire
- mailbox on fire
- brush pile
- burning trailer

hopefully this can be considered and bought up to the devs

@TACRfan what about patients being released an hour from when they were put in, instead of one every hour

I have not had any Swat Call outs in Probably over a month now. I have 18 Police Stationa spread out around Minnesota. with the Police stations I have atleast 2 assigned to the same dispatch center, some have 3 Police Stations. But I had no issue before when I was getting the calls? I do have 2 Swat Vehicles and 10 People assigned to each Police Station also.

anyone else seeing this?

you're saying you have at least 2 stations assigned to each dispatch centre, my understand is you should have to have at least 8 stations assigned to a dispatch centre for swat missions to spawn

they shouldn't count unless in a SWAT vehicle anyway, obviously was a bug that is now fixed

sorry about that, I swear it was working before

Can I use the new types of forest fire fighting like normal engines or do they only work with forest fires?

Otherwise we have a problem. Since this is an extension of a normal firestation, "normal fires" are also generated here.
That would mean I have to station normal engines and ladders at the forest fire stations, which are normally not to be found there.

And the other way round - can you extinguish forest fires with normal engines? I don't think so.

It would have been better to run something like this as a separate station -> which "only" generates forest fires.
Or install a switch at that station,that does not allow normal fires if u don´t want this

The best thing would be if the expansion ONLY simply unlocked forest fire missions. What I then fight against, whether type 3-7 or normal engines, doesn't matter.

Sry about my bad english

as far as I know the type 3 and 5 act as regular fire trucks, I haven't tested the normal trucks on the forest fires

that will be nice as calfire has some forestry
I will like to see a Fire Dozer in the game as calif has alot of them

pretty sure one of the mods has said that a fire dozer is in the works

can it be changed so that instead of a forestry expansion we have forestry stations. only suggesting this so we can have rural setups and we don't get missions like factory fires in rural areas. apart from that I really like this update. good work MC team

Nice. Thanks for the reply. That was very clear.
Some times i see like 2T and some other words what are those?

I believe the rest of the code just determines what the injury is, America uses a coding system for patients which is what we see, the only thing you need to worry about in the game is the A-E

BLS can respond to A and B calls ALS can respond to A,B,C,D,E
Fly car + BLS will act as the same as an ALS

Quote from TACRfan

Most of the time you will need an ambulance however there is a chance with certain called and patient codes that are A that a flycar will release them on scene. It’s rare though

thanks for clarifying, what about b-e patients that don't need transporting, I thought that fly cars had more advanced paramedics so they should be able to clear some of those right?

I was under the impression that fly cars could completely treat patients that didn't need transport but I always seem to have to send an ambulance to finish a call even when it doesn't end up transporting

Quote from StuartA1984

have you actived the section on the buildings as sometimes they are not active while you train your staff.

yeah I made sure they're both active

Are the large fire and rescue boat dock missions working, I've had stations for a couple days with qualified staff and they are in service. but I haven't got any missions

don't know if this has been brought up. What would everyone think about water police? could respond to missions like search and rescue, Dui's on boats, things like that.

Hello everyone!

Since a month, I have an issue with the calls. They are so far away from my dispatch center and stations.
All of my stations and the dispatch center are in once city (Győr, Hungary), but the calls are more then 50-100 kilometers away.

Do you have any idea?

Thanks for the help!

looks like you've built your stations super close to each other, pretty sure if you do this it will make your calls further away as a sort of anti-cheating thing

if you move vehicles or staff you won't be able to refund it
