Suggestion Title: LFB Distress Alarm
Division: Fire
In real life, the fire services across alot of major countries use some variation of the "pass alarm" or bodyguard.
What is this you may ask? It is an alarm attached to a BA kit which activates if there is no movement from a firefighter for 30 seconds this alarm activates. It gives a ten second countdown through loud beeps before a full activation. Or when it is pressed.
How would this work ingame? Ingame this effect could be achieved through the use of an "LFB distress call" via the F2 menu. This could work similar to a panic alarm or alternatively could sound an alarm from the person.
Although this could be abused, if they were to limit this to LFB then it would be avoidable and would be monitored by command (similar to fire alarm panels for example)
Why do we need it? When a firefighter dies in a building currently they have 3 options. Option one is they call firefighter down over radio, this is unrealistic and is failing RP as a dead man can't talk. Alternatively they press a panic and have the entire server come to them. The final option is they lay dead and do nothing.
A firefighter dying on scene should be an uncommon occurrence however it happens more commonly than people may think.
Any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to reply
