-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfixable bugs:

- The trailer of tiller does not have physics when it is not installed. This prevents the trailer from getting stuck.
- The tiller cannot be installed at windows.
- The fireman on the ladder sometimes floats in the air.
- The trailer logic might be buggy and/or slow on older computers and during online play.
- MP5, M4a1 and PSG-1 fire through objects.
- Mission 2: Canister sometimes can't be closed (restarting the game will fix it)
- Mission 3: Bomb Squad cannot pick up the briefcase (restarting the game will fix it)
- Sometimes, the wye cannot be picked up, the fireman disappears and nothing else happens.
Strange occasions: (often reported as bugs, but cannot or won't be changed)
- Vehicles on patrol ignore traffic lights
- The watercannon of parked fire engines in one of the fire stations shoots through the roof of the fire station when a fire is in its vicinity.
- When personnel of the third parked ambulance (fire station 1) exits the vehicle they sometimes appear outside of the fire station.

Also firefighters can walk through the back bay doors at fire station 1 when they are closed
One more thing I think the building some people are missing (the movie theater) is a Deluxe building but I may be wrong

First: Since tiller trailer has no physics, cars can drive through it, even when trying to block road.

and
Bucket on Tower seems to be sitting back.

Other than those two atm, great Mod.
oh and btw, i tried to replace the Tiller in the firestationstart script file, but when freeplay starts up, only the Tiller Cabin is in the station.

Look closer, it's there. The command has the same icon as the Follow command of the police helicopter.Hi , i'm new , awesome work about 1.9 but when i playing in freeplay games i don't have the chase script , is it a bug ?
Will be fixed in a patch today.Missing Building on freeplay map.
It's not a bug, but I forgot to add the icons on the mini map.there are no building icons on the mini map
The FBI vehicles should be available in multiplayer now. You just need to buy them yet (the big + button). I'm aware of the chase command bug, a similar thing happens to a few other commands. Fixing the multiplayer bugs is not really high on my to-do list now. Thanks for mentioning them though.The FBI still doesn't work in Multiplayer, when using the chase command the officers sometimes become invisible and non-selectable after getting out of the car
I have mentiond the tiller bugs a couple of times before the release of v1.9. It's one of the many reasons I didn't want to make a tiller in the first place. I can't fix that, but did add all known tiller issues to the first post. You need to adjust the script to spawn the trailer as well and attach it to the tiller. Did the bug with aerial ladder (the tower) happened more than once?Two Small bugs i found:
First: Since tiller trailer has no physics, cars can drive through it, even when trying to block road.
You need to adjust the start script to spawn a tiller and attach it to the trailer.
Will (probably) be fixed in a patch.If the tiller gets near any fires the trailer gets heavily damaged
Please take some pictures of the points where they get stuck, but I might take a look at the physics of the vans.That, and the forum child watch van seems to get stuck in traffic often. Other vans seem to as well. Other than that, great job Hoppah.
It's not static here. I just checked it. Do you have 911:FR and do more people have this problem? I think it's a 911:FR related problem.The water at top of new 1.9 freeplay map is completely static (cant show in a screenshot) and not ripply as it should be.
I will release a patch today which fixes most of the bugs mentioned above.

also ive noticed some missing civilian vehicles in the city driving around...
Unfortunately, I cannot check that out myself. Can you start the editor, load the mod, then the map and see if you can find a few of these missing vehicles? (they get replaced by that 'missing object' box). If you do, make a screenshot of that and post it here. Then I can load the map myself and can find out what vehicle is missing.

(EM 4 Standart v.)
There is only one patrol path and all my units are patroling in column.
There are a lot of jams when patroling viechle meets heavy traffic.
And when my tiller trailer starts burning (YAY

Hope you understand ;D
So, what is it the fire fighters do? Do they wait a block away before going to the station to get the truck? Nope. 10 or 12 guys go into the Station, put their gear on, and 6 of them jump in the Pump. The rest, they stay in the building in case they need the Rescue. So, Pump 1 responds from 119 Bertie St to 119 Bertie St, but, they have to follow protocol. So, they drive around they block, and stage at the corner, waiting for police to clear the building they just left.
