It seems that this attempt to drive on C-D road has failed in quite spectacular fashion...

Happy birthday - You're the only one on the forums, who has birthday on leap day.

We'll never forget you. Happy birthday 🕊

I wonder if that's intentional: Pressing ALTGR+A clears the in-game chat input. This conflicts with the shortcut used to produce ą in Polish(Programmers) keyboard layout. The dead key shortcut to produce the same character isn't affected.

Changed the train crossing timing on the Calais - Duisburg road (Add-On Team).

What's the difference between normal timing on the train crossing and the one provided by Add-On Team?

This unexpected player launch had equally unexpected result. The player, who failed to give way just changed into projectile, which hit the player, who just turned into the corner ahead.

With the most recent TruckersMP update, there's memorial added near the HQ building, giving respect to SpeedyTMP and Sanamaria, who sadly passed away. 

It seems that on the traffic diversion to A16 near Eurotunnel there's small design fault. Whenever I try to turn left with long lowbed trailer I always hit the traffic diversion sign with the trailer.

I've been in Pinball Station in Warsaw lately and they had non-working Hercules pinball machine. This thing is huge, especially when compared with my Truck Stop pinball machine I happen to own.

This new C-D road seems to be quite well suited for Sim2... It would be perfect if the F7 area was positioned away from the road, so the users won't get any slowdown when driving near the area on the main road when the general service area is busy. Also, the highway could be appropriately extended on both sides.

Admiring the beautiful landscape of Grossglockner while paying respect to late @SpeedyTMP, who passed away in June of 2022.

After checking the new rules, it seems that the anti-afk scripts are being outlawed from now on... 

I wonder why the new launcher wouldn't warn the user about invalid characters on the "Play" tab as well if they are detected...

I wonder if there's anything that's not unexpected at this point...

It seems that the tooltip of the "Play" button in the new launcher doesn't change. It constantly tells you that game is not installed, regardless of the fact that the game might be running at the moment.

Since the new launcher gives a warning if the path contains non-English characters, I think that such message should be visible also on default tab as well, as user will be able to easily miss it. Also, for some unusual reason, it's possible to create directories with reserved names by setting the installation path to contain such name.

I guess that the crashing issue in TruckersMP HQ is related to missing forklift model.

When the game tried to load the model located in /model/logistic/forklift/forklift.pmd, it simply crashed, since the model is indeed missing and there's no model placeholder available in game to use in such case. 

Imagine this happening in TruckersMP at some point... 

When the wrong way driver gets instant karma...

Here's my reaction to the recent changes in Duisburg:

I've just noticed this when looking at events page. What kind of changes are expected tomorrow?

Technically, the issue with Hannover Expo traffic jams could be resolved by extending the existing non collision zone to cover the area marked in red. 

The website report system load is very high. I wonder if this is related to fact that Patron vehicle is front wheel drive, regardless of the fact that the real life counterpart is rear wheel drive...

If the other player used the turn indicators properly, I would know that he was about to go in either direction. With hazard warning lights turned on it's impossible to use indicators, unless the vehicle has additional circuit, which would cut the power to the opposite turn indicator light in such case.

Well, it seems that my  brand new ST3000DM007 decided to get stuck for a bit on drive detection routine on my MSI Z97 Gaming 3 motherboard(code A2).  After reflowing the solder joints on the SATA connector of drive's PCB, the drive started being detected  successfully every single time. I was actually suspecting cold solder joints to be the reason behind such strange behavior of the brand new HDD, since I did reflow the connector on light grid board of my Truck Stop pinball machine in the past, with positive results.
