New Feature: Vehicle Customization

While poking around the apparatus bay, we stumbled upon a few forgotten paint buckets and spare parts. Naturally, we put them to good use and just like that, vehicle customization is officially here!

Visit the apparatus bay to customize all your vehicles with individual color schemes, sirens, and light patterns. All vehicles come with a variety of preset color patterns for you to choose from, but of course you can create and store your own custom patterns. You can also customize the vehicle’s siren sounds by choosing between individual options for the wail and yelp. Lastly the emergency lights section allows you to select a new custom pattern for the emergency lights of each vehicle. Each vehicle can be customized individually and presets can be stored and shared between them.

Owners of the Blackout Truck Edition Skins DLC (to be released tomorrow) will also have access to additional coloring options.
