  1. To add the ifrit does not have lights or the lt horn. Additionally the fix uniform phone function does not work for cops.
  2. At this point I dont understand why the shops are even separate for diving gear and patrol uniforms. It only make situations for cops harder.
  3. Does this behave like the federal events or like the drug runner missions?
  4. Just checked on server, boats was working for A-EMT and the Orca must be for paramedics.
  5. For the uninformed, what is the minimum rank requirement to purchase these vehicles?
  6. So what exactly does this mean? Content in game or other behind the scenes functions? If I understand this correctly means that the cops will know when a ticket has been issued and can now see how long that ticket is payable by civilians?
  7. Here are all the issues with attempting to make this change: 1. It takes extra work for the lieutenants to attempt to establish a working schedule and make appointments every month 2. People do not always make appointments scheduled with Lt's 3. As a Lieutenant this is not my full time job, it is a game which I volunteer my time and am not compensated for. As such I want to have the ability to chose when to have to do work. 4. Scheduling conflict which occur suddenly can cause issues with making interviews with appointment 5. Scheduling Lieutenants for times slots is impractical. Not all lieutenants can be on in the middle of the night/ early morning for interviews again making it a job These are points which I have to counter this argument. It is not perfect to become an officer, but welcome to a volunteer system and what I assume was you applying at the end of the month. The end of every month has a major slow down in activity being completed as many higher ups want to do other things. This is all my opinion and experience of doing the job of Lieutenant for 3.5 years which other higher ups may have different reasons for agreeing/disagreeing with my statements.
  8. With the change to licenses being gone for the full restart, how does that affect people who go to jail/sent to jail and are released? Can they go re-buy the license immediately or are they also bared from buying a licenses as if they were seized by a police officer?
  9. With the change to lethals how does the APD handle people outside of HQ's at 1 minute to restart who refuse/unable to pay their ticket?
  10. So constables can buy supervisor skins on sports and suvs
  11. Lotta good changes here. Awesome work!
  12. The fact that this thread still has any life is a joke.
  13. Same goes for blood bagging as well.
  14. The issue I mentioned is different from that. Though azeh was made aware of what I meant.
  15. Preliminary report: soft logging wipes prestige on cop.
  16. Not sure if this has been reported yet, will leave anyways. When ever a medic is killed then respawns they get the error message "bad vehicle type" on the spawn screen. Has been very consistent and only on medic have I found this issue.
  17. Drug pings have always been this way and I have heard they are aware of the issue with the RCO.
  18. How have medics been factored into the ratio? Was not sure if the system counted them as civilians.
  19. Having issues purchasing the Supervisor SUV skin on cop. Also EMS has the issue once respawned and looking at the spawn screen the error appears saying "bad vehicle type" I don't know why as this issue does not exist on cop. The respective EMS ranks does not have access to boats. I am unsure what the rank displacement is so inquire to one of the chiefs.
  20. Only an idea, but what aout banner which incorporates both the AFD and APD logos on the respective sides of the banner?
  21. If you were a lieutenant who wanted to experiment with different guns other than a 7.62 it is inevitable that you get asked: "why don't you have 7.62?" This isn't a fallacy it is a reality, any LT who hangs out with more then friends on the regular knows this. Cannot attest to the total number of scenarios which all higher-ups use armor both the strider/hunter as well as the orcas. I do know that it is a direct cost of the higher-up to lose that armored vehicle or helicopter and no one else. The point I am making here is that it is very expensive for higher-ups to afford to fight with all the equipment they have access to as the same level of payment is sent to a constable with low cost loadouts following a fight.
  22. Free money? How did you come to that conclusion? Staff are required to perform the day to day operations of the APD (interviews, apps, disciplinary action) to keep rank. We do not get paid with the only exception being for the completion of trainings which meet the requirements to be paid. I don't know what you mean by free money if you imply that people pay for ranks. I have to pay the same as a civilian for an Orca that has a higher probability of being shot down then do rebels. In average patrol we cannot store our gear in a house/locker to pull out at a later date. If we get the gear for a bank and no longer need it you have to patrol with it or pay for a less expensive loadout losing money on the last. As a Lieutenant it is completely expected to have a 7.62 this is not deniable. With the APD having limited ways of dealing with orcas, heavy weaponed vehicles, and ifrits; it is almost required that Lieutenants get Mks. To protect that investment into a weapon I want to have good armor which means paying for PCs in many ways.That adds up quick. On top of that both rebels and cops make the complaint that "why don't higher-ups pull armor?" Answer is simple and two part for me. The first it is expensive to use that equipment. Second it is much harder to get that equipment back when it inevitably ends up in the hands of rebels. I say this as everyone is aware that it is much easier to shoot out a person from armor with a 7.62 then say a 6.5 or 5.56. I say all this as many have no idea how expensive it has now become to use the equipment of the APD at the highest levels with Rebel gear getting a price decrease recently.
  23. If I go with a full loadout for UC it is around 17K and that is not including flashbang grenades or smokes. We are talking Mk18 (rod knows how much that costs on cop), Pilots, helmet, mags 10ish, vest, bag, and faks. Before anyone develops the though I earned all my cash through the grind on civ, specifically, scotch. Cop is as much if not more of a money sink for staff members then rebels going to the rebel outposts.
  24. This is the whole motivation to get to Corporal. Constables are considered the "basic" rank of the APD and need the basic equipment to perform their role. If you want the more "advanced" equipment you are supposed to go through the ranks like everyone else to unlock the equipment.
