Suggestion Name:
Mini Convoys
Suggestion Description:
Mini convoys are just mini events that gathers players to go from one city to another, being auto generated, to ease driving with other players without schedule times or waiting too long.
How would it happen?
When someone parks his truck, like engage parking brake, in a city with more than one player, this would popup a notification to do a job delivery including other players in the city, currently parked or just parked a few seconds ago.
Visual?
Upon player opening the notification, it would show a list of every job generated still available in the city and those still not taken by anybody.
On every job detail, shows the players, their cargo, destination and distance remaning.
When does it start?
Once 2 or more players accept the job, it would wait for 3min, to get the load or trailer and for additional players to join.
After 3min, this would start the job.
What if players don't want to go too far?
When accepting the job, players can choose another city in the job path to end earlier the job.
Or maybe just accept another job with shorter distance.
Job synchronizing?
This would only generate a job with the same destination individually, so every player could continue it after one player has completed it.
Or it could be synchronized, meaning, you see players in a different colour.
Cargo/Trailer?
Players could select a default company trailer or just use their own or custom one, just like in current job creation.

Why it should be added:
There's still no AI Traffic, so players drive alone most of the time and often there's no events available on your own time or you just miss them all of the time, with this it would be easier to go on convoy with people with the same destination, starting on your current location.
Also having it be automated and activated by default, makes it easy and everyone aware of the new feature.
