Not exactly relevant to the mod, but does the FDNY ever give or receive mutual aid?

one mutual aid giving what is well known to me, is for yonkers usually with engine 81 and truck 46... and as far as i know, the only mutual aid receiving was on 9/11/01

Actually, The FDNY doesn't really do mutual aid into Yonkers. This is because Yonkers can handle pretty much anything by themselves, so the FDNY would just end up standing by at a firehouse, which they don't want to do.

I just had an amazing idea.

Have an iccident where you have to locate a person, but do not show who it is. You have to manually question people asking if they have any info and you must close in. This could be a long-term assignment and not be restricted to time and not have risk of the suspect running off the map. Feel free to build or critic it.

I like it, but it could get complicated.

Nice idea, however, I've bet they've already thought of that and probably have included it in.
I'm not 100% sure as I just returned from vacation and haven't been on this for over 2 months now.

Some progress has definitely showed since my last visit, and it's sounding great. Keep up the good work.

The idea itself aint bad, but imo suspects should be able to get off the map. I mean irl people flee the city if there in deep shit.

It takes an act of god to get an FDNY company out of the city, but its not impossible. Just in July, when White Plains had that fire that destroyed nearly half a city block, Westchester Co. requested from the city a couple engines with their purple K units for a transformer fire and an Engine and ladder to cover the sub-station.

Purple K?

It would be very easy actually with all the crowds and traffic. I gotta a question, I remember you guys saying something about foam, how would this work?

Purple K?

Purple K is a special type of extingushing agent, we have 3 trucks in the entire city of Columbus that carry it.

From Wiki:
Purple-K is a dry chemical fire suppression agent used in some dry powder fire extinguishers. It is the most effective dry chemical in fighting class B (flammable liquid) fires, and can be used against some energized electrical equipment fires (USA class C fires). It has about 4–5 times more effectiveness against class B fires than carbon dioxide, and more than twice that of sodium bicarbonate.

Well, in a city that big, with so many police units, there is no way that that'll happen!

The car bomber from this year was in the city two days before being caught trying to leave the country. If he manged to avoid detection for two days, is it hard to believe he could escape the city?

Any updates on whats going on ??

I think questions like this just prolong updates.

I remember you guys saying something about foam, how would this work?

They already said if they do have foam, it wont be in the first version.

That might actually be cute if it wasnt already answered.

Is the map itself bigger then previous maps, or is it the same but layed out differently?

[captonbob]

Reguarding the map when we do not have a call are we going to be able to look around?? Also Kinda like ^ his question how big is it?
