Is there a way where we can have a firehouse that is not maned, in the buy vehicle list there would be a button that says volunteer, you can buy them and they have a regular car and drive around, when a call goes in you can command them to go to the station to pick up the rig or go directly to the call. They would park and run into the bay and hop in the truck. Pretty sweet idea. Also, I want to make the jeep and personal car, put a red light in the window and have a jump-bag in the back. How would I do that.

That'd be sweeeeet! I'd love that sooo much

[Commander Rasseru]

That sound like a lot of scripting.

When you get to the station with a crew. The fire would be out of control or that the person hurt would be dead.

[DamageInc251]

or that the person hurt would be dead.

Is there such thing as a volunteer ambulance anywhere in the world? And the volunteer fire company idea would be awesome if there was a way to slow down the speed of the fire but other than that it wouldn't be fun at all because you'll have a whole block on fire kinda like where I live because we're all volunteers here and its all row homes which sucks but luckily we have a fast response or this town would be burn to the ground.

In honestly... Many volunteer departments would get to a scene much later than a staffed department.

Oh I know I wasn't saying anything about that, I am a volunteer firefighter and we have a few fires that get a really good start on us. What my question was, is there any volunteer amublances because you stated about the persons being hurt. I think he was just talking about a basic bls fire company being volunteer which would be a great idea as long as you could slow down the rate that the fire spreads in the game but idk if thats possible or not?

[Ami89E1234]

but how would that work? since LAFD (to my knowledge) is NOT a volunteer Fire Dept.

[Sgt.Wulf]

-Yes, there are ambulances at some Volunteer Stations. Some are staffed, some are on-call, it depends.
-LAFD is not a Volunteer-run department, so not in this game on-call firefighters.
Lastly, in my municipality, Inkoo, here in cold cold country Finland, the volunteer department where I'm working, reaches all calls as the first one, and the Inkoo is 60 squarekilometers.
Our department provides BLS ambulance, ALS staffing and ALL rescue related from animal rescue to car crashes to freezing ice hockey fields at the winter.

It is not just some simple rule that "staffed is always first". It depends!

[martjuh.denB]

maybe you know the winterberg mod
maybe you can ask them if you can use the script
you hear a horn and people are coming into the station and are after 10 seconds dressed in a fire suit than they go into the engine and drive

[Xplorer4x4]

^thats not really what hes after though.

My suggestion for the thread starter, this will never be scripted in the game so the second best thing is maybe edit a civilian vehicle and have it at the fire station for you to use. Vice it the needed commands, (Moveto and vcmdflashing lights are all i can think of). Change the traits of the vehicle to a fire vehicle so you can find it on the map when needed. Then when a fire happens, send the vehicle to the fire station, get the ff out, put him in the engine and your rolling to the scene.

Yea there is actually some in Brooklyn that assist FDNY CFR engines on EMS calls.

Oh and I want to make a personal jeep, with one red light and a siren. It would be a first responder, The dude would have an extinguisher, a jump-bag, and he would be an EMT. How can I do this??????

Basically I want to make the jeep a fire car with a fire extinguisher and a jump bag in it.

I know this I've stated I'm a volunteer firefighter and we have an ALS Ambulance at our station. I don't think anyone gets what I am asking... VOLUNTEER(as in doesn't get paid) is there any ambulances companies with paramedics that are an all VOLUNTEER company meaning that the paramedics and emts don't get paid at all.

[Hoppah]

Second, that would require so much scripting and things.

Exactly, I can also cancel the map and begin working on the 2 million stupid ideas, because I can't do both at the moment.
This idea wouldn't be a useful addition either. It requires weeks of scripting and then what? WHAT makes this idea so good?

[Paramedic_Engine_2]

50% of the people who play with the LA mod play it because it is realistic. I am not asking you to do, I was seeing if anyone knew how to make the jeep a personal fire car with an extinguisher. Like a first responder.

You mean that mod with a huge amount of automated gameplay and crashes?

Lol, sometimes it works, sometimes I want to blow my computer up.

Your best bet is to do as I said. Its not perfect by any means, but it saves you have to script something.
