  1. It could be useful if ETS2 was a lightweight game and the majority of the players were able to play at high scaling, and resolution but right now, it's not useful. Even dashboard of trucks is not clearly visible at 100% scaling; a text on top of the car, which is a hundred meters away, wouldn't be visible. It'd be a plus to the simulation experience, but in the end, it's useless.
     

    I agree with @willians1002; it would be easier and helpful if there was a "local announcement" command that its content is shown in chat or on a rectangle with no matter of display setting.

  2. It'd bring benefits that are more useful and easier than the current one, but as everything has pros and cons, it also has. Some people may act as a game moderator and do back-seat moderating, create bulk-reports in-game, which will eventually increase the load on the in-game report system and cause a reduction in service standard. 
     

    Besides these, people who use keyboard or mouse control to drive their trucks may crash if they try to click on a vehicle while driving. Sooner or later, it'll increase the rate of accidents and put the system in a loop. Adding an option to view TruckersMP ID in a column and player order by distance, closeness in TAB list would sort the mess in the list, in my opinion.

    Why should it be added?: Immersion, I REALLY enjoy sitting at a truck stop and hearing other truckers go by. Also I am 50 years old. 10 minutes isnt enough for me to go to the bathroom and get a cup of coffee. I might want to stop and google something I just saw in the scenery or some idea I just thought of. I like the idea of having an hour before I get kicked. It gives me some time I mean frankly. I think 20 minutes would suffice for 99% of my needs but I think a hour is a good number. Maybe give the other tiers some more time? I think this is a really good tangible benefit for patreon members and I think it will drive donor numbers. I have seen the topic mentioned before in the regular suggestions but never in here. (I searched to make sure my idea is unique) I get it. Bandwidth costs money. Extra people on the network creates more traffic. You guys pay per the resources consumed. You are very attuned to keeping TruckersMP quick responsive and reliable. I do not mind paying 5 bucks a month. I don't think I would be generating anywhere near the 5 dollar amount in extra traffic. I have seen the idea get shot down before and it makes sense. people idling costs money. That is why I think the Master Trucker level should get this 1 hour timer. You probably have some coding to do but this way is pretty simple.


    First of all, it's a game; you neither lose money nor gain by staying in-game. If you're pretty slow at getting a cup of coffee or go to the bathroom, you can just disconnect and reconnect when you're back. It's pointless to have idling and AFK players, sometimes I'm having to do such things as well, which may take more than the actual idling time, and I'm doing the same thing. It takes just a couple of minutes to start the game and continue driving; even if you don't have an SSD, it does take maximum five minutes. It just takes your time, but it costs money to TruckersMP. Most of the players do not have powerful computers; passing-by trucks do have FPS drops meanwhile you're getting your coffee.

    5 dollars is a steal for the entertainment you guys offer. 


    To speak for myself, I'm not paying for the perks. I consider it as a donation. I'd pay the same amount or more if there were no perks. The only two reasons I stay as Patron are TruckersMP is a community that I support, and I love to be its part of.

  4. That would be definitely useful and better than the current one but there should be a cooldown as well because some of the people may abuse it like backseat moderating with freecam around a congested place, spamming it on purpose.

  6. I learned alot, first of all, brotherhood. It's the important thing that this VTCs brought to me as an advantage. Second, having some friendships and learned how to drive a truck properly. Some culture maybe by having some long conversations with different people from different countries. Third one, behaving, well I am not a member of any trucking company IRL but I tried it in VTCs and learned how they live ( some examples not all ). Fourth and the last one, rules. Yes rules and how they should be. 

     

    Thanks FTC for making me a better person :)

  7. It shouldn't be removed, I think if developers put no collision to way (in front of duisburg service), problem will be solved.

     

    I told reason of my downvote, above. From my side, downvote.

  8. Great idea but time should be increased because 5 seconds isn't long, sometimes people horning for 1-2 minutes. My old keyboard's keys are broken and when I press 1 second, it detects as 5-6 seconds. 

     

    15-30 seconds is high enough to be limited.

     

    As I stated above, upvote.

     

    Spoiler

    I stated my idea again because old topic locked.

    Dear Dopaa

     

    It is a nice idea to put "Getting start guide" here.

    Unfortunatelly There are some faults.

    Firstly "main" is not a void function. This function should returns integer. Following the standard we have:
     

     

    Secondly, printf is quite a complicated function. An ideal function for printing text is "puts". "puts" for default adds "new line" character at end of the text passed as argument.

     

    So your first example should looks like that:

    
    #include  <stdio.h>                /* Header
    
    int main(void)
    {
      puts("Hello world");
      return 0;
    } 

    I've also added return 0. It is a normal exit from application. Any other value indicates application error.

     

    Thirdly. "C" language is case sensitive. Unix systems are also case-sensitive in file names. So there is a difference between "Stdio.h" and "stdio.h". Proper is the last one.

     

    Fourthly in your example of program there is #include <conio.h>. This library is avaible only on some platforms. It is not a part of standard libraries. Compilation under linux will fail for example. Instead of using getch() from conio.h better way is to use getchar(). This one is a part of "stdio.h"

     

    Please also, describe something more that your application is doing.
    We both know that it adds 1 to variable "a" and then subtracts 1 from the result of the last operation. The program result is as follows:

    
    10
    11
    10

    You should also say something more about what "\n" and "%d" are for.
    "\n" is the symbol of new line. It is type of encoding "enter/return" key.

    "%d" is a keyword for parser in printf function. It describes that here should be printed value from variable passed as next argument to function printf.


    Besides, this is a really good example. The language "C" should be widely promoted

  10. C is the old and popular high-level language developed Dennis Ritchie in 1972. Though, it is derived from language B which was developed by Ken Thompson.
    So, Let's get started.
    First of all, you need to download some IDE. Experts though use sublime text 3 for it but beginner should start with DevC++. 
    The name of C program ends with extension .c e.g myProgram.c .
    Here is the basic C program

     

    #include  <stdio.h>                /* Header
    
    int main(void)
    {
      puts("Hello world");
      return 0;
    } 

    In above code:

    #include tells the compiler where to find the meanings of standard identifier. I used "printf" for it.


    Identifier
           It is the name given to the variable, constant , function in the C program. There are two types of Identifiers:
    1- Standard Identifier
        "printf" , "scanf" and library like "Stdio.h" and "math.h" are standard identifiers. You can't change them
    2- User-defined Identifiers
             You can give them any name like "onPlay" "getMarks" etc.

    Rules for Identifiers:
     

    • The first character must not be any number rather it must be alphabet or ( _ ). using (  _ ) is non-recommended though.
    • Reserved keywords like char, double, float can't be used as Identifier


    Keywords:
       Keywords are designed by the developer of Language and we can't change them. It help us a lot to make a program. In C, there are following keywords:

     

    auto
    do
    goto
    break
    char
    default
    for
    float
    short
    union
    void
    int
    if
    signed
    unsigned
    sizeof
    enum
    /* and more


    Variable
        Now, let's come to Variable.. It is the named memory location or memory cell. It stores the program's input data and its results after execution.
       These Variable are created in RAM thus it is called "Random access memory" so data stored in RAM is temporary. Example of Variables are:

     

    int  marks;
    char grade;

    here, int and char are keywords while marks and grade are variable names.

     

     

    Let's make a simple program

    #include <conio.h>
    
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    void main()
    
     {
    
       short  a = 10;               // I will name my variable a.
    
       clrscr();
    
       printf("%d \n" , a);          
    
        a = a + 1;
    
       printf("%d \n", a);
    
        a = a - 1;
    
       printf("%d \n" , a);
    
       getch();
    
      }
    

     

    You can use words instead of "a" though.  

     

    Output

    10
    11
    10

    "\n" is the symbol of new line. It is type of encoding "enter/return" key.

    "%d" is a keyword for parser in printf function. It describes that here should be printed value from variable passed as next argument to function printf.

    I love the idea, but I think this should be an optional setting for players. Some may not like it and some may favor it. Personally, I would be down into using this but like I said, other might not favor it.

    ^^

    I think he is absolutely right. We should select it from TruckersMP options/menu. I won't use it always because it is so small, I cannot see the screen when my eyes are tired. It isn't an important thing to make developers busy with this. I ain't totally sure. If developers like it, upvote. If they aren't, downvote.

    @Dopaa Right now there are 174928 registered forum members, if everyone donated 1$, that's 174928$. To get that same amount with 50$ donations, 3498 donors would be needed. Do you really think that there would be almost 3500 users willing to donate 50$? What would you choose? 100K$ from 100K users at 1$ each, or 50K$ from 1000 users at 50$ each? I know what I would choose...

     

    And let's not forget that the suggestion says that the tag would be a monthly thing... Wich makes it even less likely for people to be willing to keep that tag if the minimum monthly fee is 50$.

     There is a lot of banned and inactive members, how do you know everyone will donate 1$?

    @Dopaa It wouldn't be a "rank", just a "tag". Ranks are usually associated with some kind of privileges, being a donator wouldn't grant any. It's somehow like the "Veteran Driver X", it's not a rank, just a recognition that the user has been registered for X years. Some time ago, a new "rank/tag" was created: "Contributor". Why not "Donor"? Not only it would be a form of appreciation towards those who support the mod finnancially, it could also make others aware of the fact that there's an option to donate (and get a differentiation from other users, which for some people would be enough, I think, to make a donation). +1 from me.

     

     

    Okay, everyone will donate 1$ to get that tag if it's added. There may be requirements to get that tag (e.g min 50$ to get).

    On the C-D road, it will become a festival of sounds. In my opinion .. I do not see this as something really necessary, I believe there are other things that can be added, and put this suggestion in the last place of the list.

     I will be neutral in this suggestion.

    Absolutely right. If it is added, developers should give us ability to activate/deactivate that.
