Little to no callouts

[Jdh1221 4]

 For some reason I'm experiencing a lack of callouts with 1.0. And let it be known that when I downloaded it about a week or so ago, I had a normal amount; but now it seems that I won't get any callouts whatsoever. Also, after playing for a few minutes, I'll press F7 (to go 'busy') and a callout will INSTANTLY pop up. So, long story short, after downloading the game, I would get callouts as normal; now I don't get any unless I wait a while and press F7--which is counterintuitive since going busy means I SHOULDN'T get any. I don't have any additional mods other than a couple weapon scripts, and after reverting to a clean backup, I can affirm that these have nothing to do with my situation. Anyone else having this issue?

The busy state is a known issue and they're working on a fix for it, basically the toggle busy state is backwards meaning:

Busy = Yes, receive callouts

Not Busy = No, don't receive callouts

 

I would check the .ini file because you may have installed the mod with the default state being not to receive callouts, so when you appear on duty you are by default busy and so wont receive callouts.

 

As for the lack of callouts you can adjust this in the .ini file, there is 3 lines in there near the top which should say something like:

minTimeBetweenCallouts = 60

calloutMultiplier = 250

maxTimeBetweenCallouts = 120

 

Something like that anyway, I don't have my install handy to check them :P

Basically if you adjust the minimum time and maximum time it will alter the times between callouts, so if you lower the maximum one you will get more callouts closer together (because you lower the range available) and if you make the multiplier higher it will increase the number of callouts possible.

 

Hope this helps.

 

(for other experienced users, if I have gotten the .ini file names wrong correct me please, I'm on my laptop so have no way of checking if they're right)
