Is it one me who thinks that maps....

[HIPERATIVO]

Am I the only one who noticed that some real life cities are easier because of ther development, Kyoto is pretty easy to play,most of the streets are straight lines ,not many corners...

Please share the city you find it the most easier to be dispatcher and the hardest as well...

The hard maps is where you havê bridges dividing the city

I find my nearby town of Macon to be irritating. Half the town is separated by a river and interstate and all emergency services are centered in the downtown area making the edges of the city way far away. I try to follow the IRL setup of assigning units to the east side across the river but it never fails I need them eventually down south which results in the east side having nothing. City becomes easier after time but in the beginning can be quite hard.

My hometown (Nymburk) was pretty tough at the start - It is small town - all emergency facilities are in the middle of a map and there are several small villages around (where ironically most incidents happen). There is also river dividing the map to north and south in the middle with only two bridges - one in center and one near east side so if you operate near west side you have to go through center. But with several duties done I could afford to buy more police cars and ambulances and it is easy now but with only 2 police cars and ambulances it is very hard.

On the other hand I have tried Praha/Prague and that is probably the easiest map. Nearly whole map is urban area with dense street grid and emergency services nearly at every corner so little time wasted when driving injured or arrested back to station. Also you get a lot of units to start with even medical helicopter. So if you want easy map try Praha or Prague. Only little problem are no bridges to the south but you should start with lots of vehicles to compensate.

I have a few question and things to try,
First: are the emergency facilities locations the same as real life? that would be interesting...

Second: What stops me from having an ambulance or any other vehicles with a officer,firefighter and medic at the same time,would this be like cheating the game rules?

Third:If I have medics with two first aid kits,does that mean twice as fast recovering from injuries?

It depends on the source - OpenStreetMaps - you can sign in and fix possible errors.

In real situation they do not drive in one car together.

Check stats of unit - healing stats with and without medikits. But it looks like that all medical equipment provides same bonus.
