What Do Boosts Actually Do?
Based on community testing by JR Wheels (April 2026):
Fire Rescue Van: +2.78 Transportation Score on vacant lot, +1.79 Service Score boost when placed on a Fire Station property.
No official documentation of boost values has been published by Upland. These numbers come from player testing shared in the community.
Upland announced service vehicle boost activation on February 5, 2026 via Squallmuzza in the official Discord and in-game live updates. However, the announcement included no documentation of boost values, stacking mechanics, or building-specific interactions. Players had to independently test boost behavior to confirm what was actually working — JR Wheels documented specific values in April 2026, roughly two months later. As of April 2026, trade route functionality for semi-trucks remains pending despite the broader boost system being announced as active.
