Dennislp3 Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Any tips on dealing with multiple emergencies in Freeplay? I seem to do just fine...then I get multiple emergencies which leaves me with lots of people sitting around either during or after an emergency...wasting tons of resources (I am playing the LA mod so I only have so many assets on the map and don't like calling in t many off map units)...especially firefighters who are at one scene with hoses out...getting em back into the vehicles is a pain...is there any "everyone back in the vehicle" button?

Guest Karlos Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 "especially firefighters who are at one scene with hoses out...getting em back into the vehicles is a pain...is there any "everyone back in the vehicle" button?"After the firefighters have been rapidly deployed, just press the 'Rapid Deployment' button again and they'll all get back in.As for making things easier, I'm not too sure. You could edit the XML files so that you can change which emergencies run, so you could disable things such as earthquakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grim_Wizard Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Yeah, it's unavioadable though, it's not that bad though because for me even though they're still at the emergency site, I don't need them to go to another emergency situation. Also to Emergency Planet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groovybluedog Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Hmm... How can I stop some events happening so much, yet make some events happen a lot? I know its in the XMLs but I cannot find out where. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 The freeplay params is where you can adjust the frequency of events. Lower them all around to get lesser call volumes.. It's all labelled in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoelJoshi Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 it helps to have a lot of Cops patroling, as they can call some vehicles inalso, you should have multiple Battalion cheifs around the map, saves alot of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Personally, I keep the one, and I set him as group one (select then ctrl+1) and he can be easily accessed to automatically ddispatch the nearest unit to the scene. Works like a charm. Also avoid using ladders unless needed for fires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
