shadowzuziz Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Satellite units are usually mobile command units, deployed to large scenes where it is necessary for a controller to get up close. They would really only serve a visual purpose here, because we'd already have all the commands as the player to dispatch more vehicles etc.a satellite is for big fires but its to help fight fires its has more water than an engine the MCU is the command unit for big fires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kookas Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Why would they put a dish on it if it's not a control vehicle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kookas Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Oh, okay, I thought that it meant one of those vans or trucks with a big satellite array on the roof Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFW TUT Posted October 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 the satellites are remaining of the the old super pumper system and consist of two components... the satellite itself and a 2000 gpm engine which is assigned to the satellite company (because the satellite Co's do not have their own pumps), also each satellite has a backup engine company (in case of sat1 its e24). the stang intelligiant monitor on top also has different changeable tips and is capable of flows, for example, up to 4700 gpm through a 3 1/2-inch tip.

MikeyPI Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 *sighs everywhere is different on terminology... Satellite in general usage is litterally a mobile comm vehicle, usually arrayed with cameras, antennas, and dishes for massive communications output... In NY's case, they refer to a purdie toy truck that is basically a spraying machine meant to hose something down... Perhaps it's how they clean the streets after New Years=) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Well, if that guy pukes all the way through your ambulance, you really got the short straw I prefer putting a barf bag somewhere on the stretcher, so I always have one in range to react fast enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, in RL, it's expected of you for patient care and keeping a clean rig, and vomit's considered a hazard. idk if you've worked on an ambulance before, but basically, vomiting is a side effect of whatever reason you were called for. Anyways, i don't think their gonna have vomit in this mod. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unit 42 Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Also, to add to his question (he might have stated this) but will the mod slow my computer down or will it slow any computer down? Basically, will it make your computer react as it does with the LA mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
