No, not our server. Our client listen for keypresses while you are playing and you are in game, that's how the siren on J works, opening the chat on Y, opening tab, etc. It's just doing different actions based on which key.

You'll need to make a program that listens to the keypress and then does the appropriate action. While hooking into the game is possible, that is a lot of work, and I would instead recommend to just have a separate program running in the background that listens for the event. Would be pretty much the same experience, but with a lot less work.

Something like this can potentially be added when we get a server side economy.

Updated the list a bit, added a few more things.

How does the CM's doing something like this stop us from working against cheats? The CM's do not write any code for TruckersMP. They work on the community, so that we developers can work on more of the technical things.

[Developer] @Tuxy Fluffyclaws has left the team.

The website is not low priority, but we are working on other backend changes which will be completed before we make other changes. It's easy to fix, when we get around to it. This specific issue isn't high priority because it is purely visual, and the forum team page gives a better overview on the people on the team regardless.

No, there are no truckersmp oauth. However, you could use steam oauth and check with our api that a player with the steam I'd exists, and what theit truckersmp id is.

Obviously we will look at the big picture, not blindly follow the winning vote. On the cooldown question, since more than 50% of the votes currently are for one of the cooldown options, it is obvious that a lot of the people who have voted so far want a cooldown, even though they might not agree on how long it should be.

A bit off topic, but: In theory, yes. In reality: Won't happen. It's extremely easy to abuse. Any action against a player solely based on the number of reports is doomed to be abused. Especially in a MP like ours, where you can have very large amounts of players in a single spot, and you have VTCs and other groups driving around in convoys together and such.

Quoting this response to why it's in game that I posted on facebook. In addition to that, developing it and making it a part of the website, and building a voting system there, as well as doing all that properly would have taken more a bunch more time. This was something we decided to do when we posted the blog a couple of days ago, and was made in a few hours, and we have had more room to make small changes all the time until we released the voting.

If we decide to develop this way of doing polls further it will be integrated with the website, and not just in game. We do like the in game voting though, as it is a nice way to make the voting available to more users who do not regularly check the forums and website, by showing in the launcher and not requiring them to open a website.

Yeah, game servers need to complete their update and restart first.

I think you hit it literally the moment I restarted the page to add a thing.

A lot of people dislike it for certain reasons, and by fixing those issues other people hate our changes. Obviously, we cannot please everyone. But we want to make sure we get it right, for as many people as possible. And to do that, everyone has to be heard, not just those complaining loudly. We need to listen to everyone, not just a few people.

So, we've messed up. It's pretty obvious that while we have good intentions, we have listened to far too few players far too much in the /fix situation. We have read your feedback. And we are sorry. We want to improve, and we want to fix this. It might seen like an obvious thing to say, but we want you truckers to have an awesome experience, but sometimes we misjudge and don't really know what you want. Those who want something tends to shout louder than those who are happy with how things are. Here is how we plan to work on this: We are going to run a poll. Every user will be able to vote on this, and you will be able to see the results in real time. You will be given multiple questions, and options. The poll will be released closer to this weekend, and you will have a couple of weeks to vote. The exact start and end times will be announced together with the poll. The exact poll options are not done yet, and we are open for input. Thanks for telling us when we are wrong. The entire TruckersMP team View post on homepage

The /fix command has been updated. It now has a 10 minute cooldown (both from last time you used it and from when you logged in). It also requires you to have a trailer, but will no longer fix the trailer.

The maps are not up to date for either game. Likely the entire map website will be updated a bit before either game map is updated.

SCS manages WOT jobs, so it's unlikely we can do much to affect them sadly. Their servers are the "boss" for those, since they use those loads to do their events and such.

When it happens, try pressing the insert key and see if that changes anything.

UPDATE: An update for ETS2 has been released! With the new /fix command fixing your truck and trailer in game, you have a solution to some of your problems! This means lags, bugs, and even ramming and trolls should be less of an incovenience, instead of ruining gameplay experience. https://truckersmp.com/blog/75 Thanks mwl :3

The decision itself was made a while ago. We should however have been more open about it, but we had some hope that ATS would be updated quicker than it actually turns out to be.
