0.7.6 New Factions (Medical Examiner Flatbed Tow Truck)



Hey everyone, as we continue to work on 0.7.6, we have added a Medical Examiner Van and a Flatbed Tow Truck. The Coroner van is needed for incidents where person(s) are found to be deceased and need to be removed from the scene. If someone is pronounced dead at the scene, you will not be able to transport that person in an ambulance. You will need to request or drive the Coroner's van to the scene and load the deceased into the van.

The Flatbed Truck is useful to tow vehicles after a car accident. Just like the van, it can be requested or driven.

These were 2 necessary additions to the game for 0.7.6's tons of new car accidents and EMS calls.

Quick preview on new Hose system

Just a quick preview, here is something Donut has been working hard on with the new hose system. Along with tension, hose stiffness, and the need to create slack for hoses (Control man, Im talking to you), you can now stretch the hose around corners and bends!

0.7.6 Development Update

Good morning, Happy Saturday everyone. Just an update on 0.7.6. We have made huge leaps of progress on 7.6 in terms of optimization, multiplayer gameplay, and new content. 7.6 will reimplement a functioning and enjoyable Fire Academy & Manhattan Multiplayer experience, offer hours of new Fire Academy Scenarios to practice on, and a much smoother gameplay experience in Manhattan as we have put countless hours into improving performance, reducing crashes, and adding new emergencies. The developers of the rope physics system we are using for our hose physics have recently released a new version which we are working on redesigning and implementing this new optimized and more efficient system with new possibilities to have the hoses behave much more realistically and less erratically. 0.7.6 will be live on the staging branch soon. Thank you all for your patience while we work on ironing out the game so that it is a more rewarding and enjoyable experience rather than frustrating, repetitive and annoying.
