Incident Commander

Patch Build 2225
This patch build fixes the issue for certain MacOS where the game crashed after launch.

We apologize for any annoyance this caused. Enjoy!

There was also an issue with squad icons not displaying on certain test machines. This has been fixed except for one stubborn Windows laptop test machine that still displays white circles instead of the squad icons.

If you experience this issue or any other, please bring it to our attention. We can't promise a quick solution, but we do pay attention.

Good luck, Commander!

Update Build 2209
We have released a new update build, version 2209, that adds a new mission and fixes some multiplayer issues.

New Content



  • Flood mission
  • Search and Rescue (SAR) boat
  • Throw Bag order (available to Firefighters and CERT)
  • New Steam Achievement


Multiplayer Synchronization


We investigated and fixed a number of synchronization issues that were interfering with multiplayer sessions. During these sessions, the host and client players might see different movement of squads or different outcomes of objectives. We did our best to track down these issues and fix them. However, if you notice any difference between the host experience and client experience that interferes with completing a mission's objectives, please bring it to our attention. Thank you!

Patch Build 1634
We have released a new patch, build 1634, that fixes three discovered bugs:

  • Missing Hiker event: The bug that prevented the player from giving First Aid to the missing hiker is now fixed.
  • School Shooting mission: Sometimes the shooter would find an angle to fire through a closed door. This is now fixed, and all staff and students inside locked rooms are now safe.
  • School Shooting mission: There was an issue with repositioning school staff inside a locked room which made the staff person move to the door instead of to the point ordered. This is now fixed.

The School Shooting mission is perhaps the most challenging, and these last two fixes should improve your chance of success. Good luck, commander!
