Afaik the only instances where ghost mode is enabled is right after you leave a NCZ or when you join a server (i definitely do not miss the days where you could smash at full speed into the back of a poor guy who had just connected lol). Normall it lasts for a few seconds, but if you happen to be in a very crowded place (ie: the portals to Winterland), then ghost mode will linger until there is enough space for your truck to fit in the road. Any other instances are likely exploits.

Can we just make a rule against these posts of 'i demand my playstyle to be forced upon the rest'? ETS2 is a game first and foremost. Just like every other game. It doesnt matter how much of a 'simulator' it wants to be. It is a GAME, and one in which we have a lot of freedom to play it however we want to. Why it is almost always the ultra realistic minority the ones wanting to force their realism into others? 'Go play GTA' why? Who are you to tell me how i can play the game i bought with my money? This suggestion is pointless, because speed is not the reason for the crashes, it is reckless drivers. I can get hit by people running red lights in Duisburg while driving at less than 20 kph, do you want to limit the C-D road to 10 kph? Most of the time i drive in the C-D road during peak hours i rarely ever hit 110 kph anyway, because there is some issue that slows down traffic every few kms. We need better moderation against reckless drivers, not dumb rules that only makes things worse. If you have a problem with the way other players play a game, i strongly recommend you playing single player.

Because the C-D road has very heavy traffic, anything that disrupts the flow of traffic during peak hours causes massive traffic jams. The train crossing is one of the most infamous because it is something that is part of the game, is bound to always happen, regardless of how people behave on the road. As it lasts for a fair amount of time, more and more people come to the place making the jam bigger. Then you have to add a couple of impatient reckless drivers trying to overtake and causing even more disruption. For some reason there seems to be a much bigger traffic jam going from Duisburg to Calais than the opposite direction, it isnt uncommon for the jam to go all the way to the highway interchange. I never understood the reason for this tbf.

They still have a very long time ahead of them, however, i think most of the hardest work is already done, because most of the largest states by surface area are already in the game. Plus they are progressing fairly fast now, with 3 states released in less than a year. I think they may need to switch to releasing multiple states as one DLC as they approach the east coast, because the size of these states is significantly smaller than the western ones. If every state is their own DLC it would become a very expensive bloated mess of DLCs, and i definitely dont want to pay for Delaware or Rhode Island on their own, for example. But yeah, keep your expectations low at the moment. There is still a very long road ahead. As for Europe, they are more advanced in terms of countries included. If we only include Europe proper (so no Caucasus or East Turkey), the only countries missing are Greece (which is the next DLC), Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, Iceland and the island of Ireland, plus the islands and micronations. 3 of the above are in a freezer for a long time due to obvious reasons, this may affect Moldova too because it is too small of a country to be worthy of a DLC on its own. This leaves Iceland and Ireland as the only important parts left. The microstates and islands feel unlikely due to their scale, altough if Promods has almost all of them why not SCS...

Previously you could not bring any double trailer outside Scandinavia or you would get kicked. Now you can drive with them around most of Europe, except the restricted zone. However, you cannot take any jobs from/to outside Scandinavia nor use quick travel or store a double trailer in a non-Scandinavian garage. That restriction is made by SCS for the game itself and has nothing to do with TMP. So the only way for you to drive a double trailer outside Scandinavia is to take your own double trailer in an Scandinavian garage, and go where you want with no jobs. I would suggest a garage in these cities: - Esbjerg, you can take a ferry to the UK (which is entirely allowed for doubles, just do not use any ferry to the Netherlands which in the restricted area). - Malmo, which is very close to Trelleborg, with the ferry to Rostock and then you can go all the way down through Germany and reach Switzerland, Austria or Italy. Just remember, do not go to Hamburg, Hannover or Frankfurt, nor try to go to Eastern France as only Strasbourg is allowed for doubles. - Karlskrona, from there you can go to Gdansk in Poland and then go to Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary etc.

SCS hardcoded double trailers to work only in Scandinavia. So either in SP or MP you cannot get jobs outside it.

Suggestion Name: Add a small road coming out from Calais to the C-D road. Suggestion Description: Unlike Duisburg, which has 2 exits, one of them pretty calm, currently Calais only has one entrance, if we do not count the port to the UK. This road is usually overcrowded with players, the vast majority of them are coming to C-D road. This road has a couple of sharp turns which are very dangerous for a road full of reckless drivers. Accidents and traffic jams are very common there. In addition, currently most of the players who want to enter Calais, after leaving A16 highway they need to do a left turn against the traffic coming from the city. Again, this is an extremely dangerous intersection where a lot of accidents happen. At the entrance of Calais there is a roundabout. Coming from the south is the entrance road. To the west, the avenue where the service station is located. To the north, the road which leads to the port. To the east there is no exit. If you could continue that way, you would quickly reach C-D road. If you use the free camera in C-D road, you could see a building 'in the oblivion', that building is actually located next to the entrance of Calais. My suggestion is to create a small avenue from the roundabout in Calais, to the C-D road. That way, most of the 'crowd' who want to go to/from C-D road would use that road, leaving the current exit with way lower traffic. It would be much safer to leave the city, if you want to go to C-D road, you would just follow the crowd via the new road, if you want to go via Lille, you use the default exit. Traffic coming to Calais from C-D road would just take that road and then continue via the roundabout into the city. Traffic coming from Lille would still have to 'drive against the crowd', but now in a better position, since a roundabout is much better than a left turn, also it is inside the city, which means the traffic there is limited to 80 kph, unlike the A16 highway exit where people drive much faster. Any example images: Why should it be added?: To make it safer for people to enter/leave Calais, and also make life much better for people who want to go to/from Calais but not via C-D road. It would also make leaving C-D road a bit safer, since currently you need to turn into a pretty narrow highway entrance and this usually causes a bit of trouble with players driving too fast. With this road you would have more space to turn.
