Couldn't the coding from the AU server for the Mounted police be put into effect here? On AU the Mounted police are only added to missions if the player has them available. Is there a possible way to put that into effect here on the US server?

This feature is being depreciated and wont be used anymore - It was asked about the other month for one of the vehicles from the wildland extention and the devs told EMS-Chief it wasn't possible, when asked further, it was said to be being depreciated.

See:
RE: new wildland command extension

This means that the stations that are assigned to that dispatch centre are the only ones that will be considered for spawning a mission. Eg, if theres 3 fire stations to that dispatch, and another 4 outside of it, the stations within that dispatch will only be able to spawn missions that require 3 or less fire stations.

Without this option, the stations within the dispatch centre are able to see all 7 fire stations, and spawn missions that require up to 7 fire stations.

You dont have it enabled, dont worry! It's extended *call window*, not extended mission list Just thought that could have been the issue since you had LSSM, but it's not!

I don't see where that is.

If you have it enabled (like I said, Im not sure if you do or not as I'm not familiar with the default categories on USA), it'd be under LSSM settings -> Extended Call Window -> (Scroll down) Vehicle categories

It doesn't even list my Memphis smoke jumper plane

Do you have LSSM custom categories enabled? If so, do you have it set to show smoke jumpers in the wildfire tab?

Exactly - Easier to just worry about yourself on the game, other people botting doesn't really have any effect on yourself! Letting it get to you and frustrate you does nothing.

Awesome! Happy to hear

Yeah! I've never used pods with PMs from other station, so they either fail to dispatch (PM not in station), or instantly go to code 3.

I always went for more stations as that is what will unlock you to get bigger and better paying missions. You can look at the following list to see the station requirements to spawn missions:

What I did (although on the UK version, it'll generally work across versions), is to target the highest paying mission and build up to being able to spawn that. As you unlock more missions, then getting the correct vehicles to attend those missions.

If you're logged in to missionchief, the above site will highlight in green which missions you can currently spawn, and you can click through to see more details such as what units they require.

Fair! I wasnt aware of how state 9 worked, thought it would also show at the top!

Shouldn't a pod awaiting to be towed from a mission use code 9 (awaiting tow vehicle) as opposed to code 5 (transport request)?

There's whole alliances who regularly bot, have been temporarily suspended by the devs, and returned to the same behaviour. Reporting any botting to the devs is like pulling teeth, they want "proof" yet what proof can you reasonably gather besides their earnings, but it seems that isn't enough most of the time. Only way to get botters banned seemingly is to get them to admit it.

Click on "auto recruit" and the game will "hire" one person per day (for free) until you reach the number you have established for that station

Note: Auto recruit is only possible if you have premium - Otherwise you have to set it on 1/2/3 day cycles manually.

Quote from ChiefBoden61

Just adds more vehicles and or items that costs credits or coins. In my 20 years in emergency services in Florida I have never seen it required that a "sheriff" or "police Chief" has to authorize transport unless the transport has to go to some jail outside their jurisdiction.

You've also probably never seen a dispatch centre have to authorise every transport and tell them where to go. However, that's what we do when processing a transport request (remember, you're technically playing the role of a 911 dispatcher). The transport system isn't "realistic" clearly, so a vehicle/person to automate this part of the game and automatically transport prisoners is just a feature for better efficiency and improved gameplay for us!

As mentioned on another thread, I'm now working on some additional ambulance content - this includes fixing the CC requirement on missions and also the hospitals (incl departments)

Does this mean that Urology will actually be used by at least 1 mission finally? Currently the department usages are as follows:

General Internal - 214
Traumatology - 81
General Surgeon - 30
Cardiology - 6
Neurology - 4
Neurosurgery - 4
Gynecology - 1
Cardiac Surgery - 1
Urology - 0

I totally get your point. But there are the Environmental Damage Assessments and other follow up missions, and I think FEMA could be applied in that sort of way. But IMO, it would be a MUCH lower priority, than fleshing out the rest of the US S&R as defined by the four primary elements of ESF-9.

The other issue you face on this, is the devs push back heavily against anything being introduced that would not be dispatched from an emergency call centre like the fire/police/ambulance. We had a struggle on the UK game to get coastguard/lifeboats added.

I've 3.5k vehicles, maintenance would not be fun. Would become more of a chore IMO

Honestly, the whole prisoner system is messy, not sure how feasible remaking it more like patients is

Yeah we have the "inspector" training on UK, that allows auto transport of prisoners.

Yeah alliance missions are a random figure within a certain range, not linked to units required.
