sorry didn't read the all the pages but know that i know im not going to ask again sorry stan but you and hoppah are awsome i plan on buying 2 copies of 911 1st responders from the shop to support the site and mabey another game and i was just making sugestions the ones that i made before where undertaken by hoppah and completed and i say thanks just want to know if the game could feel a little more like home because i don't know that much about scripting
Suggestions are no problem, of course. I'm very happy people like the mod and some ideas are very good. But I can't add everything to my mod. Creating a second fire station is A LOT of work and won't be added in the NEXT version.
@ others:
Please stop the discussion about being polite or not. Using the Search function for a certain question doesn't work, so it isn't firemedic28's fault. It's too much work to check 57 pages. That's why I'm going to expand the LA MOD FAQ. I'm also going to create a new (sticked) topic about the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) soon. People have to check the FAQ first before they're going to post a suggestion/question again. This will prevent the same questions and discussion (and irritations) like this.
Problem(s) solved.

I just wanted to make a small suggestion for the new mod coming out. I was wondering if there could be the possibility of including a slicktop in the mod. If so, I will post a pic of it. Thanks for such a great mod :1046275747_biggthumpup:
REgards,

Vehicles without flashing lights are no fun.

wow dude, you need to think about what you say before something dumb like that comes out of your mouth.
just because a slick top doesn't have a light bar, doesn't mean it doesn't have lights. how are they going to pull you over, follow you untill they get close enough and throw their shoe at you?

I'm sure everyone has experienced when you send units on patrol, they sometimes get bunched up or stuck in traffic. i used to before this ability park cruisers around the map with there lights off then when a distant call came in, i would have some units in the area. But, i also love that the "call for backup" feature is back from EM3 LA Mod, but units not on patrol or at the station can't be called in using this feature. I was wondering if you could make a command that would put the cruiser or ambulance or engine in a "standby" mode where they are currently parked. They are still "in service", but are standing by from a dispatch from a officer or battalion chief.
and another tiny suggestion. i took a look around the script for the "heal" and the stretcher command for this but couldn't find what i was looking for. When you separate the stretcher crew into 2 paramedics, unlike the just paramedics you can call in, they don't auto heal a close victim. sometimes when you have a lot going on, this feature lets you unload the ambulance and worry about something else for a moment without having to micromanage each medic to a victim. those few seconds can sometimes save the gas explosion, train light failure, drowning people trapped in cars, and a guy running around shooting the first and every thing he comes across

anyway, something a little more reverent and constructive:

I can add that to the 'Call for backup' commands and it will work like this:
Enable the 'Standby mode'. (select vehicle -> click icon)
As soon you move the vehicle to another position, 'Standby mode' will be disabled automaticly.
But if the vehicle is in standby mode, you can use the 'Call for backup' command.
Call for backup will check the following things in this order:
1. Parked vehicles at fire station or police station
2. Patrolling vehicles (patrol cars & ambulances)
3. Vehicles in 'standby mode'.
Maybe I should switch 1 and 2?

I just checked the script and it says this:
Med1.SetAutoHealDistance(0.1f); Med2.SetAutoHealDistance(0.1f);The distance seems to be wrong, but I don't know the default distance.

i was going to say right off the bat from reading this that you should switch 1 & 2, but now that i think about it, since then units that are dispatched by an officer on the scene don't respond from the closest patrolling unit, it really doesn't matter, even if the station is right next to the scene, "calling for backup" could dispatch a unit from the other corner of the map. So as CHP said, If you're looking for realism, then you should switch 1 & 2. but in this case, it really doesn't matter (unless somehow you could script to have the closest unit respond)
Med1.SetAutoHealDistance(0.1f); Med2.SetAutoHealDistance(0.1f);
i saw the same thing when i took a look around, i tried to chance the values a bit, but i didn't really see any difference

don't respond from the closest patrolling unit
I tried to add that, but even Bass-ti (the script master) told me that isn't possible.

If that was possible, it would be great to call for outside help from special units (Hazmat, MCU, fire plane), since some situations can become tricky in a matter of seconds.
In the same line of thought, I was also thinking a police equivalent of the battalion chief could eventually be useful (something like a patrol supervisor or captain, maybe?). He could have the ability to call for a SWAT team, a hostage rescue team (scout + negociator) or any other police vehicle that might come in handy. Also, if calling units from outside the map can be done, police officers should be able to call for a towtruck on the scene of an accident.

That's a very nice-looking NABI 40-LFW CNG! :1046275747_biggthumpup: I'd nitpick at it, but I won't.I am working on a bus since the release of v1.2.
It will replace the original EM4 busses.

In real life, the bus is even longer. But I decided to make it shorter so it would better match the game size.
It's almost twice as long as the original EM4 busses.
