Settings › Dispatch › Dispatch trucks is the list of vehicles the dispatch board uses when you give a crew its truck. It's separate from Trucks, which is what jobs are scheduled on.
Before you start
Anyone who can open Settings can change this page. There is no Save button: the switch saves as soon as you flip it, and each name saves when you leave its box.
A new company's dispatch trucks are the same three as its trucks.
The page
- Dispatch Trucks — The dispatch board lists these trucks when this is on.
- The Trucks card numbers each truck, with its Name.
- Add truck adds one. The remove button takes one off: - a truck no crew has driven goes at once; - a truck a crew has driven asks first (Warning — You are about to remove this truck…).
