I was thinking the same thing actually. I could see a Sprained Leg or something upgrading to a more serious call needing CC, but I cant think of any reason why these 3 would need CC.
Though even Broken Ankle doesnt need CC
The Sprain calls also lack the "First responders can take full care of patients" option which definetly seems like the UK has the US version
Im just thankful for the recently added ability to delete such calls.
This has been raised but we haven’t heard back yet. Thanks for your patience whilst the devs look into it.
Thank you
Any news on getting EOD added to the Rural and Urban Specialisations?
As requested full breakdown sent to Alctw in a DM, but quick TLDR version for this thread.
It took multiple cancel and re-attachs to get 4 out of 5 patients to transport and then the final patient became so stuck that It was impossible to transport. Ultimately I just canceled all units and will leave that call to despawn as its not completable.
The "Belay Failure whilst Abseiling" mission has 2 variants, one variant requires the deployment of a Coastguard Rescue Helicopter, the issue, Bluewater units (including Coastguard Helis) cannot be dispatched to this call, making it impossible to complete.
The call is highlighted in red, the 3x Heli stations highlighted in yellow have multiple available coastguard helis, there are certainly multiple both free and close by that could be attached to this call. Its simply impossible for this call to be completed
This bug seems to have got worse as I now struggling to clear the calls. Removing units and re dispatching them isn't working now.
Can we get this looked at urgently, either fix the call or remove it for now.
Yeah, the usual technique of canceling units doesnt seem to be working at the moment. Ive got one I just cannot get to clear
As it currently stands, building extensions, perticularly those that stack or have a large quantity of possible slots, such as Prison cells or Vehicle Parking lot spaces can be extremely tedious to fully build out. Nothing more so that the Large Police Depot's 40 Prison cell slots, that need to be selected one at a time.
The suggestion I have to resolve this is fairly simple, add a "build all" button alongside the current options. No discount or anything like that, just turn 40 clicks into 1 single click. It would be a significant quality of life upgrade. This could be taken further and included onto all buildings, such as being able to select a hospital and just build all standard extensions. This would make building large number of alliance buildings for example a lot easier.
None of the EOD missions are compatible with Urban, Rural or Airport specialisations which is why you are not getting EOD calls. I will raise this.
That definetly needs to be fixed ASAP
Still havent got a single EOD call in over a week.
I have checked my dispatch centres, I have only one set to its own coverage area. All EOD bases are in their own dedicated dispatch centre, but as far as I am aware, this should have no impact on what calls can spawn.
I routinely get fire calls (such as "powerline sparks fire on farmland") which means I have POIs nearby fire stations. From my understanding the EOD bases spawn via fire stations, distance from those stations shouldnt necessarily matter.
But to make sure, ive increased spawn radius on stations from 1x to 3x to see if this has an impact on spawn rates.
I have 10 EOD bases spread fairly evenly over my setup though, including several nearby major cities with large number of stations, more than enough that at least these stations should be spawning calls.
The only thing that I can think of that might play a factor into this is that all my fire stations are set to Urban, Rural or Airport and as a result, the EOD calls might not be assigned to either specialization and so wont spawn. Please can a developer check this and ensure this isnt the issue?
If anyone has any other suggestion for something I may have missed or something to try, please let me know, but I do not beleive this is user error
So I clicked on the create own coverage area option for my SFRS West dispatch Centre. But it doesn't seem to show what the coverage area is.
Its the coverage area of the stations assigned to it.
For example. My only dispatch centre with that enabled is on the Isles of Scilly. Where I have 5 fire stations (with a few disabled), 1 ambo station, 3 Coastguard stations, 1 police station, 1 clinic.
The only calls that will be generated from those stations will be calls that only require such few buildings. So I wont get any HART calls for example on the IoS. Most of the calls are disabled
In which case I would suggest this is either a player-side error, not an error with the game itself. Likely settings you have overlooked or as I said, dispatch centres with their own coverage areas.
I have a single dispatch centre set to its own coverage area. All other dispatch centres have that setting disabled.
I have all mission requirements for most of the calls (not sorted out Marina stuff yet)
I have 10 active EOD stations
I let 300 calls stack up whilst I was out today, not 1 EOD call. Something is not right, there is no explanation that I can find that they wont spawn with my set up
I have generally found EOD missions generate for 1 in 75-100 of my missions. This is ideal for my set up and I have had no issues in getting them to work.
Ive not had 1 in a 1000 calls
That might be part of your issue, try turning the stations on within the Despatch off, then compare!
It shouldnt make a difference though.
I have the missions unlocked
I have the EOD stations active
But ive not seen a single EOD call in 400+ calls
but all my fire stations are either Urban, Rural or Airport. Which if Thomas is right, might be the issue
So somthing I've noticed may be causing the lack of calls spewing is this. Most of my stations are urban specialised with 2 or 3 rural. With these switched on the station generates the calls of such extensions. Switch them off and you then have it say it will spawn said Bomb calls. Could this maybe be one of the issues. It says I have 3 missions unlocked but haven't seen a single one.
Display MoreThe Despatch is off
The stations are active
That way in the Possible Missions the missions are active
When I want Fire Missions I set the Dispatch Centre to On, and then when I have had enough, I put it back to off
This is the same for -
Recovery
Railway Police
Lifeboat
Bomb
Similar for Police and Ambulance
When I want Police missions I turn that one on, and I get all those types (Railway Police is off)
When I want Ambulance missions I turn that one on, and I get all those types (even though HART /SORT is off)
Ah right, it only counts for the possible missions.
Display MoreMy setup -
All five Bomb stations are on their own Despatch, set to Off, the stations are set to Active
I separate the emergency services on their own Despatch; Fire / Ambulance / Police
I deleted Rural specialisation some time ago
The Bomb missions appear to be Fire stations that do NOT have Urban specialisation, but I never noticed
I will observe over the next few days
The main issue I currently have is the lack of Marine Bomb missions
If they are assigned to a dispatch centre that is off, how are any calls spawning?
Setting the dispatch centre off should also prevent the stations from working, I have a number of stations attached to switched off dispatch centres and they dont make any calls
So I let 300 calls stack up whilst I was out.... Not one EOD call.
10 EOD Stations online, most call requirements met, plenty of PoIs down.... So something is not quite right, and I think Thomas is onto something
So somthing I've noticed may be causing the lack of calls spewing is this. Most of my stations are urban specialised with 2 or 3 rural. With these switched on the station generates the calls of such extensions. Switch them off and you then have it say it will spawn said Bomb calls. Could this maybe be one of the issues.

All of my fire stations do have speacilizations, about a 50/50 split between urban and Rural, so that might very well be the issue
When you run missions are they mixed or just Fire, ie your Dispatch Centres are separated?
All my services are separated, none are mixed
My buildings are all assigned to appropriate dispatch centres, but only one has the setting where it isolates that dispatch centre, so that shouldnt be an issue
I do not think that would be enough to reach the activation threshold
I suspect it is nearer to 25 active Fire Stations, given the ratio I receive
I meant 10 active EOD stations. Ive got 158 ambo stations, 227 police stations and 301 fire stations, most of which are active
