Hoppah Posted September 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Hoppah did you ever try that last suggestion in the stolen car thread?Yes, I made the changes and tested again. Still no car theft event. Maybe it was bad luck, but I am not going to work on that anymore. I will see what the exact problem is after release of v1.9.

Brendon Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Aww, you replaced the ladder truck... Which was actually a lot more useful since the tiller can't use it's ladder to extract people( at least you said before? )? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was actually a lot more useful since the tiller can't use it's ladder to extract people( at least you said before? )?I did not replace the aerial ladder (or tower) at all. Maybe I didn't express it good enough, but I suggest you read that quote again."The tower (aerial ladder) will still spawn at the start of a new freeplay game, but you can send that one home and park the tiller on its spot instead. Compatible with the 'Call light force' command as well."You're right about the functionality though. I couldn't make the tiller reach windows with its ladder (yet).

But people are free to create missions and release them as a submod for the LA mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Zohar Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Rapid deployment should be removed.Theres no way all 4 firefighters would get out of their engine and all connect hoses to fight a fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soulbody Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 maybe in your opinion but for my is very handy and i think for other players too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Maybe realisticly only 2 oe 3 would, but in game it's useful, what would the rest do, waste resources? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Wulf Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Rapid deployment should be removed.Theres no way all 4 firefighters would get out of their engine and all connect hoses to fight a fire.What? Because? You base your statement on argument?Yeah, usually someone monitors the pump, but in the game is not modeled. Yeh, someone also does the leading as a chief, but in the game, not modeled.So your point was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Okay in real life, yes there are very rare times when it happens that the truck unloads 4 fire fighters who hook up and attack, however it is very rare..In game, this is good, because you can have it taken care of much faster, and most people would have all the ff's do it anyways... If this was a simulator, it wouldn't be as good, but this is a strategy game, and not everything is realistic, thus it makes sense as it is now, and there is no need to change it. Please drop this now, I don't want to have to clean up after a fight, and if there is a fight, there will more than likely be warnings, which no one wants. So drop it.

Hoppah Posted September 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Rapid deployment should be removed.Theres no way all 4 firefighters would get out of their engine and all connect hoses to fight a fire.It's absolutely one of the most useful functions in the mod (next to armed arrest in my opinion). In real life fire fighters have more tasks to do which cannot be done in the game/mod at all. For example, communication, controlling the pumps and ventilating a building. People like you keep comparing games with real life too much. One of the most difficult tasks of a modder is finding a good balance between gameplay and realism. I think I did that pretty good. Besides that, you don't HAVE TO use the rapid deployment command. Your turn now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycguy555666 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 I agree with hoppah its the most useful thing and thats gonna be tough to argue with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFAexplorer Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 there are alot of handy scripts in this game, bomb robot, rapid deployment, swat deployment, etc. but like hoppah said, and has been said multiple times, this is a game, not a simulation. if you want a firefighter sim, play flame-sim..the cost is 1500 dollars though. this is free and just as fun. so if you dont like it, create a mod with all the stuff you like and listen to people complain about what they want you to change.

Guest gangrenn Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 you should add for the police:Call a Rollback Truck;And for the medic and stretcher:Call the police; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xplorer4x4 Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 you should add for the police:Call a Rollback Truck;And for the medic and stretcher:Call the police;The suggestion thread is closed for a reason. Besides that Hoppah has said (for now) the restrictions of the game will not allow him to do that as (for lack of a better way to phrase it) the officers can not have any more commands.
