Title: Fire Fighting
Post by: Ballast on April 15, 2008, 14:07:19

I thought i read somewhere last year that a patch would come out in '07 with the possibilty to use the fifi (fire fighting system) for the RPA vessel. I havent heard anything about it anymore since then.

What's the status of it, or is it delayed to a later shipsim version?

Greetings,
I think you misunderstoud that.
It was an idea at that time.I wrote it,in this context.
Maybe i would be nice to have fire-fighting also in the game,because Vstep has the experience to create that.
This is how i wrote it.
It's still a very good idea,however again it would take many months to create.

Thanks for your replay Marcstrat.

I don't know anymore who wrote it, but i thought it was in a official message from Vstep.

Thanks anyway,

Ballast

But in fact it has been one of VSTEP original plans to get fire fighting features to the 2008 version of the game at the very beginning of it's development.. :-\

Adverts for the game on various sites such as Play.com still state that firefighting is part of the game...."Complex and challenging missions, including ship chases, container loading, fire-fighting and exciting rescue operations."

 I also don't see why it would take long to develop considering it is already part of VSTEP's "RescueSim" (http://www.vstepoffice.nl/rescuesim/downloads/Port_Brochure.pdf)
