The operator has the task of dispatching adequate amounts and types of police, rescue and fire teams to incidents. The word team, unit and squad are generally used interchangeably.
Management[]
Teams are created in management mode in the squads column.
There are three columns in the management screen. The Resources column on the left hand side contains staff, vehicle and equipment purchased, but not used. The Squads column in the middle contains active staff, vehicle and equipment. The Shops column on the right permits purchasing new staff, vehicle and equipment.
See the vehicles, equipment and team member pages for more information.
