Important changes

- Resource creation has created unusual results such as duplicate records, similar records (APAT-602 and PAT-602) and unnecessary resources such as "TBD", etc. Because of that we have:

- Removed the restrictions around unit types. Example: When creating an OES team, you will now see all resources such as Type 3 engines in case a mixed team is needed

- Removed the ability to create a resource** Please use the help chat or reach out to me directly to add/remove resources. With the addition of Task Forces, you may want to generate lists of typical resources that are deployed and I can have them added. 

- We have/or will be merging the duplicate records to attempt to keep deployment history correct. If you come across any, please notify us

- For rostering (STENs, resources) from outside areas:
- First, add the agency and select "Leader" as your resource. In notes, you can add their call sign (Ex. CB-9)

External Leader

- When rostering, if you do not find their name
- You will need to add them under PERSONNEL (Click here for how-to). I have created station IDs for the agencies below. If there are any other agencies, please reach out to me. This will only need to be done once, so ensure to look before you create.
- Agencies: LAC, LOB, MRB, SMR, STB, TOR, ARC, WCV, ORC

- I have gone through some of the history and created personnel from outside agencies
- Example: Dustin Robertson (LAC), Brian Bennett (LAC), Robert Millea (TOR), Jeff Ohs(LOB)
