What a tragedy, surely I will be in a great company!

Sorry, can't help, I'm playing completely different game. It was a mistake to even reply to this thread, disregard everything I've said as it's only applicable if your goal is efficiency and ease of use, nothing else. Goodbye.

Maybe you should try it again then before saying something that simply isn't true, real automaticst works very well, it mimics real thing afterall, the game evolved a lot. With empty trailer, it will go 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, without trailer even like 5, 8, 10, 11 12. Depends on load and incline too, you absolutely need those low gears when you are heavy. There is also eco/normal/power setting you can choose from. Sequantial can also skip gears if smart setting is enabled, and switching between automatic and sequential can be done with a button, like in real trucks. Simple automatic is just wrong, that's GTA driving, also keyboard throttle is no good for automatic transmissions, becasue you are always giving 100% and it has a tendency to late shifting and downshifting as if you need more power, so maybe that's part of your problem, analog control is highly preferable. Sorry, was meant more like sarcasm, but I just don't consider your advice useful or wise, thank you very much.

Yes, I can drive easily anywhere (not that I want to). Not so much can be said about others around me, who usually have a hard time coping with my driving, probably feeling extremely insecure becasue they have almost never seen anyone driving like that.

Because they somehow thought that overlooking most of the offences somehow magically causes toxicity and hostility from their servers to disappear. They don't want to ban people, because they don't have that many players. They somehow frorgot that most people will do what they are allowed to do, so what is the only logical result of softening of the rules and punishments and further limiting of reports? If you guessed more toxicity and hostility, you were right. But them player numbers sure look pretty, right?

This is not Need for Speed, highest price does not equal to highest speed or acceleration. You have picked pretty much the worst option for your expectations. I don't give you any more tips, sorry. What? Automatic chooses gears as needed and skips gears! All of the transmissions in ETS2 as well as ATS are AMT or true automatic, yes, those 6 or 7 speed transmissons can't even be manually operated in reality. Your suggestion is so lame it thinks reporting people in TMP is not a waste of time.

The one in the middle.

So, what you say is that if I report someone who flipped my truck on its roof via in-game report somewhere where there's just me and the person I am reporting, my report is useless? But when 20 people report someone on C-D road, because they were "blocked" for 10 seconds by someone who they think to be driving too slowly, thus "blocking" them, that report should be dealt with priority? First you need to punish people who submit useless and fake reports, just like they are punished submitting useless web reports. Secondly, moderators should be present at all times, or nothing changes and multiple web reports will be submitted anyway. As far as I know, in-game reporting is not anonymous, but there's absolutely no consequence of submitting useless reports, it's just a few clicks and done. So, with your suggestion, I will have no choice, but to waste time with web report, because my in-game report will be guaranteed to time out, just because I am reporting alone, not matter if it's 100% valid reason. I don't know how else I can explain to you that there are always pros and cons to any solution, I know that your intentions are valid and I would like to see something like that implemented, just not with the current system, it has to be completely changed form scratch for this to work without severe cons, that I was trying to explain.

Ok, let me try again. People had it in their mind, in-game reporting was someting like "call admin" button, and what you are suggesting makes it closer to that. You are basically suggesting to make in-game roport system exclusive to C-D road and VTCs, if someone alone reports someone in the middle of wasteland, screw their puny ass, the chance that their report will be reviewd has just been divided by zero. They will have to sacrifice one of their slots for web reports and wait a week or two, that will teach them for not joining the horde and enjoing everything TruckersMP has to offer. At least there is equality, however low the cances of reports being revievew, they are still equal no matter where it comes from, you want to make certain type of players privileged, while at the same time TMP is removing reporting rights from all players as collective punishment, regardless if you sumbmitted useless reports or not, becasue TMP was unable to deal with those people, by removing their reporting rights. I have sumbmitted more than 1000 web reports over the span of more than 7 years, out of those 889 accepted and 161 declined, back in the day if you submitted report against already banned player your report was automatically marked as declined, but with positive score if it was valid, hence that number is severely skewed. My report limit was over 200, but I never really needed more than 20, all that is now gone and I have no more desire to waste my time with web reports, because firstly, I feel like I am being a nuisance here, and secondly, punishments are a joke and make no difference. Now with this suggestion implemented, using in-game report system will be entirely pointlesss for me.

Why make it easier, when you can make it miserable, the nuisance they are, screw them all!

Well the guidlines are simple like this: If you are forced off of the road, forced to stop in a dangerous place like middle of the road or intersection while you avoided some schmuck causing more than 50% damage to your truck, don't bother reporting or it's -1 allowed reports for you. If you do not sumbit yourself to bullying and "cause" a collison, well tough luck, you are the culprit, case closed. If a moderator is overtaking you, make sure to hit the brakes, the handbrake and stop dead in your tracks, or face instant ban. Did I forget something? Oh yeah, no bad words, or you are banned for months.

In-game report system was never ever filled with countelss reports, it always holds limited number of reports, and thus a limited number of evidence (in the form of saved demo), and when it fills up, new in-game report submitted will push the oldest report out and it will expire. If a player is reported in-game, until that report expires, no new report can be submitted against that player, this serving to maximize number of reports against as many players as possible. The system has severely limited capacity because it holds the evidence. Now, about your suggestion (meanwhile already suggested multiple times), what about those additional multiple reports against single player, those do not need to be supported by evidence? Or each "click" on the report button against aleady reported player will also record additional evidence? Imagine moderator wading through all that evidence just to ban one player for 5 days, since it's still just one violation, not mentioning that capacity would need to be greatly upgraded. If it would be just some number added to the first report, it can be abused. Everyone knows in-game report system sucks balls, because anyone can report anyone for literally no reason, just one player can park in a busy place and report every single person that passes by and keep filling up the system without fear of anything happening to them. Combination of TruckersMP neutering web report system to the ground, and this non-functional in-game report system will not help anything, but will contrary increase frustration, toxicity and hostility among players, trolls can be even more carefree and more players will be taking matter into their own hands, knowing that the chance of being reported will be minimal.

In a way, TMP also adds content or functionality that isnt's or wasn't part of the game, depends on how you look at it. Still, it's all only talks and theories about potentional legal issues that will probably never be fully proven or refuted. TMP could also expand the patron membership, leaving free service very basic and limited, maybe even limited session time, without locking any of the standard content behind paywall. However, It wouldn't make sense doing this now when TMP is nowhere near their prime, it would backfire badly.

I don't think so, there are lots of pay mods for ETS2/ATS around and they don't take legal actions, only ban them from their platforms ... then there are certain scum developers/publishers that take legal actions against free modifications, because they make them look like amateurs and jeopardize their profits, go figure.

A bit off topic, but I doubt it will be Poland, as larger part of it is DLC, and SCS confirmed they will first rework base map before touching any expansions. So there you still have BeNeLux, a group of relatively small countries which will be replaced one by one in major updates like Austria or upcoming Switzerkand, there's also base map parts of France and Italy, which has received only retextures and minor reskins and very few complete reworks of cities (Paris, Milano, Lyon). UK, while being part of the base map is a different story altogether, and it has to be scrapped completely, because it is made in different scale than rest of the map (ported from earlier SCS game, and some visual trick si used to make it appear smaller on the map than it actually is), so rebuilding it in stages is impossible, if they want to bring it in line with everything else. Poland and Czech republic may come in two parts, a base map and DLC part. That said, I think BeNeLux is high candidate for being next, and that is bad news for C-D road, and while still probably a couple of years away, enjoy it while it lasts.

Just look at Promods, very likely, SCS will change it to something similar or even better, though, who knows when. Just be patient and eventually the whole C-D road will be thing of the past.

There is no contradiction. A game moderator in this case simply means a member of game moderation team. While game moderator is also a rank/role within the team, in this context, every member of the moderation team is a game moderator regardless of rank/role, if their name and rank is unknown, so it just makes sense calling them game moderators in general, rather than staff members, since not any staff member deals with reports.

But why? The whole friggin map is out there for all the extensions you could ever need. Why bother adding roads, which isn't exactly simple or fast process, if you want quality results, and would complicate compatibility with updates? C-D road wasn't made, but chosen. Why don't you choose from what's available? Guess this community must be really lost, since they are unable to find any other roads on the map, or even choose correct server which they asked for and were given. Just amazing. Why not step up the logic behind this idea and just erase entire map and leave only one road.

What is this, why? How would you put that in, in an underground tunnel, or elevated highway? Why would you puzzle your mind trying to fit abomination like this into the map, when there's literally hundreds of thousands of kilometres of existing roads? Horrible and wasteful idea, anyway, nobody can spell scezcin correctly, besides poles.

Serious? People already use any space to get ahead of someone, be it shoulder, middle of the road or even grass on the side, why would they not use this lane anytime they wanted, or respect any directions from automated system, presumably some dynamic signs, which they would have to pay attention to in the first place? C-D road is vehicle combat simulator, you simply can't improve anything about the road, remember that saying - guns don't kill people? Problem isn't the road, it's the people.

I would say these two parts should be combined into one, becasue they are closely related and the second one is actually the reason why the requirement exist, and is the only context you are and should be looking for: Evidence of inappropriate use of language, impersonation of any kind and inappropriate content, in the text chat must show the full chat open and unedited. Evidence containing insults or otherwise offensive marks from the reporter won't be accepted and the reporter might be banned for inappropriate use of language, depending on the severity. That would make the rule better in my opinion, both apply to any evidence, not just screenshot, so there shouldn't be an issue. You can't exactly get full context from picture, you are even allowed to report insults not targeted at you, if you happen to drive by someone having an argument and you capture some of their conversation which you were not even part of, if you feel like doing so. The full context is actually pretty much irrelevant.

I don't find any issue in singleplayer. Any example pictures, preferrably a video, would be greatly appreciated, because I don't have a faintest idea what this is all about, partly because some people here claim that at night tail lights are visible, but at daylight they are not. Also confused about if the issue is related to tail lights or brake lights, which are two different things, daytime or night, and don't understand why tail lights and even brake lights should be visible at daylight to the same extent as at night.

Enjoying a gift from the idiots - a metric units, are you?

@[GER] Kev_hapunkt What about removing map modifications made by TMP (Duisburg, C-D road, TMP HQ) from this server as well, would there be any need for them? This is so friggin hilarious to read, but thank you for confirming my suspicions. TruckersMP should focus heavily on TikTok and make every announcement exclusively in video form, preferably slowly repeating everyting at least five times within a each video, for this great community deserves it.

Oh, let me guess, you managed to get your ass banned for 3 months with the present day pathetic rules and punishments, so you suggest to make those even more of a pathetic joke. Well played sir, well played.
