It is not Possible due to Scripting, paths and alot more reasons.

I wish Making Scripts or " Escorts" was easy; but it's not.

Also please Post this in Central Idea, you've made a topic in a wrong place.

The addition of the Mod buildings into the Multiplayer is most likey an idea that would cause an already buggy online experience to become frustratingly worse, there are so many things that would have to work that probrably would not aside from the synchronizing of the gameplay between the computers. Aside from that, think about the simple fact of how do you control which player has control over the fire department, the helicopter on the helipad at the hospital, etc.? When you start thinking about the idea more and more you start to see how fast the idea looses it's luster due to the problems it poses without even considering the possibility of it working and how difficult it may be.

The US Secret Service was requested previously and was declined for the simple reason that they would serve no purpose to this mod other than being toys for you to look at, they would not add to the gameplay or bring anything unique to it. My understanding is that there is no desire to pursue a mission at this time related to the President, any other politician, or any other duty that would require the SS to be constructed.... Then you have the fact that an FBI 2007 Tahoe was just added into the mod and that vehicle has a new sniper rifle that is unique not just in appearance but also in abilities, you should be able to see the Secret Service really does not add much to this mod. Perhaps if this mod were the Federal mod or a mod based in Washington, D.C. it would be a practical request but this is the LA Mod and I do not believe there is much need for the Secret Service without a mission that would need them which I do not believe there will be one. You can always try the same request over at the Federal Mod, since he is doing Federal Agencies he may find a use for the Secret Service truck in his mod somewhere..

Ok for some suggestion.

- The ability to give the National guard units a gas mask. Why? Well because many of times when a outbreak of gas or radiation occurs I need to be able to contain the sence, but what use is there if they get infected when people get near them while trying to stop people from walking all over the city. This is also a realisitc practice.

- An police suspect transport bus. When big fights break out or riots and I have 15 people that need to be taken to HQ it would be nice to have a transporting vehicle for them

Military medical tents. These would be temporary aid stations that when people are inside they slowly heal until the ambulances arive for them. This can be very handy when you have 30 or so injured people and no where near the amount of doctors and ambulances to handle the situation.

-A fire fighting helicopter that can: Pick cars from the water like a crane can; transport forest fighting fire fighters;

- have the LAX appropriate fire fighters the ones in the tinfoil looking suit.

I persoanly feel these would add a lot to the mod, and would benifit most players in terms of how they handle situations.

Baaah, i was just about to post that. That would be quite useful for Online Play. I always use the black undercover car for prisoner transport now, but if a Prisoner Transport vehicle would be added that would be awesome..

Instead of having the vehicles ALREADY in the Fire Station you just gotta buy them first(just for online.) , as for the Medevac the person who BOUGHT the medevac would keep control of it, with the arrangements we play it's usually like this :

Player 1 : Police

Player 2 : EMS

Player 3 & 4 : Fire.

Not specifically in that order but that's how it is.

As for who has control over the Fire Department the host could always be the one who gets control over it, or how about a little vote at the beginning? or just let it pick someone random. The PD would be nice for online play because it's frustrating to always have to buy new cars and send them to HQ everytime you need to send a Prisoner to HQ.

Don't know if this was posted but I think it would be cool to add a LAPD Unmarked SUV.

I think it would be a great addition and would look good with the Unmarked patrol car.

EDIT:

Then you have the fact that an FBI 2007 Tahoe was just added into the mod and that vehicle has a new sniper rifle that is unique not just in appearance but also in abilities, you should be able to see the Secret Service really does not add much to this mod.

Didn't see that, so those that mean there is a Unmarked FBI SUV in the mod right now?

If so sorry for posting didn't realize because I can't play yet.

There currently is no Teargas in the game, much to my complaint.... The only thing in the game is Flashbangs but I do not know if it is possible to shoot them from a launcher or not.

the only problem I find with the flash bang grenades is that you cant see the hills sometimes, but the grenades still roll down them.

I apologize; I do mean flash bang grenades. Is it poffible to program a launcher? Hoppah made automatic weapons, after all... :12:

No, the throw commands of the grenades are linked to the PushActionThrow code and a throw animation which can only be used for persons I think.

The automatic weapons commands do something else so it's not compareable.

yea so i never heard anything yay or nay about perhaps creating an older style engine. I know it is not really nessesary, but it would add a bit more realism and will look realy cool. Another thing that was brought up in the past was about adding floodlights on more fire apparatus. The light towers look great on trucks that they are on.
