When does the mission limit of 2 increase?

I've got mission on Fast speed. Two fire resources, 2 police resources. No matter what I'm stuck with 2 jobs at the most. Pretty much as one finishes another starts.

Plus, is there any documentation that answers questions like this? I couldn't find any.

I thought I'll see if there is a limit implemented and noted a variable specifically saying a limit (var mission_count_max = 2;) - I don't want to have to start editing it to see if it changes as it might break something, however I can't see anywhere else I can define this currently?

The more you build the more calls you will get.

I was wondering why there isn't any kind of paramedic or ems car in the game

There is a ambulance in the game and a ems helicopter as well... Am I missing something here ?

Quote from revcane120

I say the game have better dispatch sounds like the one in this game (skip to 1:25)

Thank you revcane120,

We are in development of better tones. At this time we have no release date

Well I don't see the point in towers however maybe the numbers in miles can be extended instead.

I think all of us here have have stumbled across the idea of, 'Why hasnt missionchief got a mobile app?' Well i'm bringing that issue to light. It can't be hard to make a browser game into an app, can it? Well, apparantly so.

So why isnt their a mobile app? Vote in the poll!

Thanks,

As stated before a mobile app is something we are doing in the near feature. At this time we will continue to improve the game and and the development of better features. We appreciate the post

Quote from UK_Central

Recently whilst dealing with an event, I discovered how far apart my alliance's resources were. It would of taken little over three hours for me to get my fire appliances to where they were needed. This gave me an idea; what if instead, being in an alliance allowed players to transfer credits and resources as well as sharing buildings (so long as the other player agrees). Such a system would allow members of an alliance to help out their friends without the afternoon-long wait.

However a system of loaning vehicles or personnel could not be instant (unless paid for by coins), but it should take significantly less time than what it would take do send vehicles to calls manually. This system would also allow the allocation of resources outwith the reach of your own personal stations. To ensure resources were given back, each would be loaned on a timer (maximum of 24 hours or so) which would then automatically send the resources back to their rightful owner.

Building sharing would only include fire schools and hospitals, as this would create a more community-like feel to the multiplayer aspect of the game.

All in all, these ideas were thought up to benefit the player by allowing them to help their friends and alliance members like never before. This should really build a strong team spirit sense of the game, as everyone is working for each other.

Hello UK_Central

* Allowing players to transfer credits has been discuss and this is something that the developer disagrees with as this would allow players to create multilple accounts and transfer credits. Unfortunitily at this time this is unlikely to happen.

* The idea to share vehicles within the Alliance is a great Idea but I think someone else said it best and that is to have whats called an "Umbrella" if you ever played fire911, this was something that was created and from my experience it help out the alliance a lot. So this idea would be something we may be able to do in the near feature.

* Currently anyone within an alliance are already able to share there hospitals with other players within the alliance only. However the idea of being able to share your buildings such as the police, ems and fire stations is a long shot but probably would cause more problems then good.

Thank you we appreciate the ideas and would hope you will continue to post new ideas.

a radio station that extends the area you can get calls as in fire police or ambo

Could you explain a bit more, I don't follow what you are saying

Quote from tyler_fire

do you know if they are currently working on a patrol feature update?

Currently we are working on a huge release. Please review our facebook posts for more details

Quote from DeputyMedic20

I was thinking maybe we can have our own tones go off in the game download a mp3 type file so u won't hear the ringing to much.. I myself
think its a good idea... The fire station where im at uses the tones from emergency

Hello DeputyMedic20,
I love your idea and I must say a good surpised has been blown! lol I was actually working on some tones and finally found some. We will hopefully be adding them this month. The idea of everyone being able to add there own tones is something that I will have to speak with the developer about and determine if this is a option or not. However great idea and thank you

Quote from Wolfman1988

I have an idea for a new mission Propane Depot Explosion here's what it looks like how is that for an idea?

Hi Wolfman1988,
Such a great idea sir! We will be adding this to the list of calls suggestions. Thank you for your suggestion

Quote from tyler_fire

1) Patrol.- Patrol has been mentioned alot on the forum and everyone
loves the idea. just think about it, pretty much all the players like to
build "real life" stations. fire stations are fine but there are way
less police stations in cities because police patrol instead of sitting
at a station for calls like fire department. a patrol feature would make
the game wayyyy more realistic, and thats what the players want.
realism. and same for ambulances, allow ambulances to patrol also, many
places use private ambulance companies where theres one main building
that sens out ambulances to patrol cities in an area.

2) Police- The police in the game needs more calls. such as "Person Spotted with gun"
i have a call idea perfect for "Person Spotted with gun". the call can
require 3 police patrol car units. And the call can be like the fire
alarm system. so the call comes in and 3 units are sent, then once they
are on scene there can be a 25% chance the call turns into "shots
fired", which would then request an additional 3 units, or a 25% chance
the call turns into an "officer down" call.

so basicaly when a "person spotted with gun" call comes in, theres a 50%
chance it will stay that, 25% chance it will be shots fired< and 25%
chance it will turn into an officer down call.

And just more other police calls, and an alliance mission call like
"Active Shooter" which would need 20 patrol cars, 5 Swat units, 10-15
Patients.

Just only these things could make the game great if done.

Hi Tyler_fire,
Thank you for the wonderful ideas for police calls. We will be logging this information and we hope that we will be seeing these calls in game at some point. Again thank you very much ! Keep them coming

Quote from jwillie3112

Just an idea here, but give players the option if they wish to stop playing, instead of losing everything they have done they have the option to donate the station and equipment to someone else in their alliance. Any other thoughts on this?

Hi jwillie3112,
Thank you for the suggestion.

Quote from Wolfman1988

i have an idea a snitch feature which could be used to report trouble makers and list the violations they are causing

Thank you Wolfman1988 for the idea. However we are currently working on a form that will be release soon where players may report other players or any incident that we may need to look into.

Quote from Wolfman1988

I have an idea you might like FBI Field office how does that sound

Could you explain more please ?

Quote from Wolfman1988

i have an idea for a police vehicle for transporting prisoners the paddy wagon how does that sound and instead of using patrol cars to transport prisoners you could use the paddy wagon instead how is that for an improvement?

Great! I love the idea

Quote from tyler_fire

many departments have units like a rescue truck and a squad.

just like how a quint is an engine and ladder truck combined. A rescue truck is a Heavy rescue and a ladder truck combined. please add this, many departments have it.

and for the Squad. many departments have them as well, they are called
"medic squad"

it does nothing but provide more manpower and assists on medical calls with the ambulance, just like a medic engine.

and the game already lets units assist on medical calls so all that would need to happen is it gets added, no calls require it, its just there to use.
Here is a picture of a medic squad

Thank you we will take this under advisement. Please understand that this does not mean it will be added but that we will simply take your suggestion into consideration. This is the first anyone has spoken in regards of replacing our Heavy Rescue also keep in mind we also have lots of departments that do use the heavy rescue. I think maybe about three or four depts in the west coast region uses these sorts of apparatuses as you explained the Squad or Medic Squad....

Quote from Michelle68

I am just wondering why some of my vehicles will go through yards or buildings and not stay on the road, LOL..... Any one else having this problem? Plus, whenever I click on the alert button, it won't send out my calls until I do it after 4 or 5 times in row, then it will send them out. Any idea on what to do?

Hello Michelle68,
Thank you for reporting this to us. I have forward this issue to our developer for review.

Quote from firefighter47

I was just curious when we go to disptach stations there is always tab for THW will this ever be implemented?

Hello Firefighter47,

Correct we will not be adding vehicles in THW but in the future we will be adding city vehicles like

Utility Vehicle, Gas Vehicle, and others

Quote from hawker5

Hello everyone,

Great game. I have a suggestion in regards to managing police.

1. Is it possible to have a patrol option? For example, enable an option to allow patrol cars to go on patrol. Instead of police cars sitting at station, add option to put them out on patrol and they just drive around city, no particular route set. Same as real world, they patrol and when call comes in, they get dispatched.

Thoughts??

Thanks.

Love the idea and I think this would work great! I will bring it up to the Advisory Team and the Developer for approval. Thank you for posting
