I had to reimport the entire project overnight and now looks like everything is working as it should. I want to thank all of you who helped me test countless builds to try to track down the issue including @Gwinn. We can now move our focus onto fixing other bugs and issues, continuing optimization and work on the Upstate update.

EmergeNYC Upstate is a new update coming soon for EmergeNYC.



You may have already heard we will be adding a new map to EmergeNYC. The map has already been completed and is a much smaller, spread out, and rural based environment with a main interstate, small downtown area, and plenty of forest and farm land for a wide variety of different types of emergencies. Our goal with this map is to appeal to the audience who prefers small towns and rural areas over large urban landscapes like our current Manhattan map. Units on this new map will be completely fictional and different from our NYC based units currently.



There will be approximately 5 volunteer fire department vehicles including a Tanker, Quint, and brush truck with the ability to respond to the station with your own customizable POV. A small police force, and a fire department based ambulance will also be included.



This new environment gives us the opportunity to experiment with new emergencies such as brush fires, missing people, and more. Our main goal with this new map is to provide a breath of fresh air to our players, especially those who are from areas like this. A reminder, as many may complain that we should be focused on more important things. This map was provided at no cost to us, generously by Unity. No hours have been put into creating it, only shaping it to fit into what we are trying to accomplish with this update. We aim to have the first version of this new map playable by the beginning of the Steam Summer Sale next month.
