Hey all,
It's time for another Flashing Lights update, and it's another biggie!
This update focuses on the fire department, introducing dynamic spreading fire - this makes fire callouts feel more authentic, realistic and engaging! We can't wait to see what you think.
We've also revamped the hose and water system, allowing you to connect hoses between fire trucks, use a secondary water spray function, and you can now drop and pick up hoses.
A new conventional fire truck has been added to the roster of available vehicles - a lot of you have asked for this, so we're happy to add it!
