On the contrary, I'd say I prefer having a smaller station with only a few units. I find it more challenging to try and deal with as much as possible using as few units as possible, only calling in extra units if I'm struggling at an incident rather than just bomb bursting vehicles at everything. But then that's just me!

Its not just you, I do the same, IF I need more units like for a large traffic accident or a fire that is getting out of hand, but even for that, its usually the light force and a an extra engine or 2. Personally I like it that way because the Battalion Chief gets used more.

Yeah I agree.  I try to get the most use out of the units on the map before I call in more, but if I need more I only call in the ones I need.

Playi with only few units is very challenging, yet when i get a call of a house fire if my units are not geting there in 2 mins the fire gets out fo control, so waht should i do call in another unit or maybe u guys have advice to give me?

Since the map don't really match the units/stations I park a pumper and a ladder at the station that's on the map and another pumper and a squad somewhere else on the map. I figure since its still a city map I'll play with the units I figure a city that size would have.

At one time i had edited the map and created a Medical station at location of the old fire station.  However since I am not that great with scripting or VOs, I didn't have much success.  I had to disable the ambos from leaving the map then try and manually park them back in the station

how you disable ambo from leaving the map?

object DummyGoHome : CommandScript
{
	DummyGoHome()
	{
		SetGroupID(20);
	}

	bool CheckTarget(GameObject *Caller, Actor *Target, int ChildID)
	{
	}

	void PushActions(GameObject *Caller, Actor *Target, int ChildID)
	{
		if(ChildID == 1)
		{
			Vehicle v(Target);
			Game::ExecuteCommand(CMD_STANDBY_ON, &v, &v);
		}
		if(ChildID == 2)
		{
			Vehicle v(Target);
			Game::ExecuteCommand(CMD_STANDBY_ON, &v, &v);

I went into the script for the hospital and added the standby command at the end of the "ToHospital" script. Simple, but it works.

Looks sweet

Yeah, almost finished. Just some small light edits and moved it to Woods maps then edited the map so the traffic isn't so awful as it was before. I'll release it if Bama's cool with it

What the whole mod or just the map and light edits? It looks great by the way

Go for it!

[Fred03]

Bama do you plan to base the map off the real Monida Pass?

Loosely, but the real Monida Pass is almost a ghost town. There's not much I can take away from it.

[Fred03]

Perhaps Lima or Spencer could be better inspiration, keep the name but when it comes to units/buildings that might be a place to start.

Just want to give everyone a quick update, I'm still working hard on the map, it's around 20% done at this point, but looking great. BMA and I are in collaboration to make a simple volunteer fire response script, but can't put it to use until the new map is done. Just about every model is being replaced with an American counterpart. Tons of new road signs, road textures, utilities, you name it. Expect new media within a week or so. Feel free to ask questions.
