Keeping Up To Date With Important Information

Discord

We use Discord as a key way to communicate between each other.

It is required that you join the Discord, so that if we need to communicate with you we can.

Forum Section

As well as applications, you can also see everything that you see in Discord in the HATO Forums Section.

Joining The Server

Spawning

When joining the server you need to select the Independant (Green) slot, and you can do so by pressing it, and then scrolling down to the Highways Agency (HATO) slots. You can chose from 1-8 slots. If all slots are full you will need to wait for someone to log off so you can take their slot.

Getting Gear & Vehicles

Gearing Up

Once loaded in you should make your way into the HATO RCC (Office Building) and make your way to the Vendor which is on the furthest away wall. Once there you can select all the gear you are required to have.

Getting Your Vehicle

After you have geared up you will need to select the vehicle you will be taking on your journey. Remember once you log off to store your vehicle so nobody tries to steal it.

Dispatches

Receiving Dispatches

When someone requires your assistance they will send a direct Dispatch to every HATO member online. It could be anything from needing a toolkit, to an unflip of a vehicle etc. To read the dispatch simply press Y and click messages and you can see all sent HATO dispatches.

We would like for you to try respond to every dispatch if possible. If you are unable to respond please reply with the "Unable To Respond - High Volume Of Calls" response.

Remember to be careful when placing items that you don't run about with them as they are known for killing people if you hit them with the object.

Setting a Clamp Price

Once you have waited for the clamp to place on the vehicle you can set a price from £5000 - £25,000. It is up to you on how much you would like the clamp price to be.

You should not go around clamping every vehicle.

HEMTT Flatbed

Loading a Vehicle

Loading vehicles is a function we use as HATO to transports vehicle around Altis. Loading a vehicle onto a vehicle requires you to have the keys to both the HEMTT Flatbed and the vehicle you wish to load onto it.

To load the vehicle you wish to put on the Flatbed simply drive behind the Flatbed and on the scroll wheel menu an option will appear as shown in the image saying load vehicle. You then press space and the vehicle will be on the Flatbed. To unload it you can do it from the drivers seat of the Flatbed or in the vehicle you have loaded on (the same way you put it on you get it off)
