Help: Bieberfelde
Hi all. I have no idea if I'll find help around here but I figure I'll ask. I'm having issues with Bieberfelde and I'm having just as much trouble finding English support. Is there anybody who can direct me to how I call in a tow truck from off-map? I found towers for police backup and EMS backup, but I'm lacking any info on how to call for off-site fire/tech assistance. Every time a car accident comes up, I'm able to handle it completely except manage the abandoned vehicles. If I click a police officer and hold control, there's a "Call Tow Truck" button, but unfortunately whenever I try to, I just get "Unit is not close enough"

Edit: I also can't seem to make the pump work in the tutorial to extinguish the building, if anybody knows if there's an issue there ordinarily or not.

Hello Ryy,

In the Bieberfelde Mod you cannot call-in for more fire trucks ''off-map''. You have to handle the events with the fire trucks provided in the stations. If I may ask, why would you want to call-in more? Besides that, you do not need tech assistance in Bieberfelde if I am correct.

When you want to tow away wrecks, your police officer needs to be really close to the wreck. The notification "Unit is not close enough" implies this, you need to get closer.

If I can remember correctly I was also unable to complete the tutorial due to the pump not working. You are however able to use it in free-play right?


In case you have more questions, feel free to ask.

I haven't had an issue with free-play. I didn't realize it meant the police officer had to be closer. I thought it meant a tow truck needed to be closer. That's my mistake. Also you can call for fire trucks from off the map, you just have to deploy a Battalion as a command post, from there you can call apparatus' from off map vehicles, I think primarily stations 5- and 6-? I'm learning quickly with this, but it's certainly got a curb. That said, the good mods do. Thank you for letting me know! I appreciate the help.

Edit: Trying to install the custom GUI but that's giving me grief too. I tried the mod directory and base game directory. Is there a different location where I should be installing it?

Edit2: Data folder. Durr. I'm smrt.

Yet another edit: After responding to a fire incident in free play, I've found the pump not to be working with a split hose either. The only way I can extinguish fire is the rapid response hose, which just isn't feasible for building fires.

I think there is an issue with 1.2 and the english package. Pumping does not work with the english patch installed. Also, for tow trucks, use a police officer, get close to the vehicle and hold either shift or control ( I cant remember which one) and you can call in a tow truck.

You can deactivate the advanced water logic from the debug antenna. This ruins a bit the experience but at least you can play it: you can only have one hose connected to the engine as long as it is not connected to an hydrant. This makes fires at the park difficult to handle as you need a pumper to get to some locations (there are no hydrants).
