New York Modification {In Progress}

That sounds like a good idea, i know in real life if 6 officers try and arrest 6 people both parties are going to be hurt cause of people fighting back

[TacticalRooster22]

One idea: I've noticed especially when there are larger riots it is difficult to have to individually select an officer then rioter to "deal" with. Is there any way where you could select a group of officers and add a disperse crowd command or somethign where they each arrest someone...or no?

You'd need a lot of officers, than. You need at least 2-3 per person.

Will the battalion chief be able to pull equitment trailers like in the LA mod?

[TacticalRooster22]

When you've got Res1cue, I don't think that they're needed.

I just thought that it would be faster.

That's what the rescues are for. I have been in R1!

LUCKY! I have only been in vintage firetrucks in parades. I would love to ride along with firefighters and see how they handle emergencies

[Ale]

I'd like to see more police units. Will you put more pictures ?

[SleepyLizard]

They are trying to keep things secret, so i doubt they will show any more!

I always found this to be the most pointless feature.

[captonbob]

yes it was a good idea but realy it has no use at all why no call a truck to do the same thing and have 2-6 guys

[Guest espnty]

WOW!! I read this everday and it gets better and better.. Its driving me nuts cant wait.. Keep up the awsome work. Keep us UPDATED

[Xplorer4x4]

Exactly, although, I admit I might use it more if say we pushed the to fire station button, then the BC went, parked the trailer and unhooked it, then drove to his assigned spot and parked.

Why not join your local fire company or see if you can get a tour?

He is 13.

[search_destroy]

When I turn 18 I want to become a volunteer fire fighter.

[captonbob]

I agree xplorer or if we had limited resorces like in the ny mod i have a small fire and my light force responds but it turns bad and help is more than like 5 minutes away i would have my bat. cheif respond with that for the extra help but in the LA mod we have pretty much unlimited help so its reall ynot needed

Although it seems in new York that they send tons of units to the simplest of calls.

From the little bit I have listened to the LAFD scanner feed online, the same applies to LA. I have hear medical calls where a light force was sent despite having resources on scene. I could understand an engine for lift assistance but, in my uneducated opinion, a light force just seems like to many people for anything else. How many guys can work on one patient at a time?

Such as?

[captonbob]

Yes but you never know how many people you will need. I remember this one call of some old lady has fallen and cant get up. They sent 1 truck, paramedics, and 1 transport and PD. WE got there shortly after fire and I kid you not this lady was the pack rat from hell. They had to call out for a light force becuase we where going to need all the help moving alll her shit out to get to her. SO i understand them over killing on help just so they dont have to send more units later

but think about it in a city like new york anything can go wrong at anytime and they have the resources so why not use them better to have to many guys there than not enough

You got that right!

The FDNY has a Dispatch Police which configures which units respond to the different types of calls.

e.g. the usual First Alarm structure response are 3 Engines, 1-2 Ladders and 1 BC

A LAFD Light Force does not get splitted under normal circumstances, so Engine and Ladder respond togther.

The Engine of the Light Force is only staffed by 2 Firefighters.

[TacticalRooster22]

I'm curious about the staffing system. Like, can you run out of people to staff the trucks?
