Yep, a major bug has been found. And I tried to put an illegal accessory once to see what happened, and took it off immediately when the server gave me the boot. Man, what an update this has been. I feel sorry for the Truckers MP development team. In fact, one of my VTCs fellow VTCs members found a truck trailer glitch where someone went past and the truck and trailer looked like one.

I got into ATS MP this afternoon, onto US1, in my pilot car, and I get two kick notices. The First, for my terrible internet, and the second, for being in the stupid car. Why has using the car been made grounds for being kicked? Who screwed up? Seriously? There are only two servers for ATS, And people actually use the thing for what it was intended. I was planning on doing that the day I posted this. I mean, I screw around in it, but I do it at the race track. If we could get a news post stating WHY, I'm pretty sure the community would appreciate it. We could at least have got a warning about it's impending ban.

This is mainly a suggestion for when most of the states are completed, and this was intended mostly for speeding, racing and the like. Not trolls. I understand the part about trolls and not making it. Speeders and racers would be so busy they wouldn't notice the report go through. If they did this for trolls, they would never get caught. I was thinking more smokey and the bandit style bootlegging trucking. High reward, high consequences. "{[Edit]}" It could also be used for 'Bootleg competitions' where a truck and a runner car have to get a load to a certain place without being caught by the admins. It would be held on the yearly anniversary of TMP, along with the other contests they have running. Actually, I'll continue that in another post.

Think of it this way. Instead of all the admins having to cover the whole country when the rest of the U.S. is added, it would be broken up into several 'departments', therefore making easier to cover all of the ground that is the continental United States. Possibly Alaska and Hawaii, and maybe even Mexico and Canada. I'm thinking long term here.If you have all the admins free to go where ever, there are going to be blind spots that can't be covered, and there will be people going against the rules without repercussions. This would also be more realistic since this is how it works in the U.S. (minus city and county).

I personally think that they should make the in-game admin feature a little more in-depth policing system. Having 'State Police' and 'Federal Police' systems in place would also make it funner. Because if someone is running red lights, ramming, and other illicit activities, a witnessing trucker can file a report and an in game admin would be dispatched depending on the state the perpetrator was in and in what direction they were headed. if it goes on to long, or it goes across a state line, a state admin could get help from the next state over, or from a 'Federal', or inter-state, admin. 'State Police' admins would only have the power to carry out bans and such in the state that they are assigned, and are limited to certain time bans. 'Federal Police' can carry out bans and such in any state, and for any amount of time. For instance, if a group has been street racing across the state for a long time, it would mainly be handled by the 'Feds', with a little help by the State Police. You would have to be a state admin before you can become a federal admin, and only the best got promoted. there would have to be additions to the game. some are suggestions, some would be required. Required. Paint Jobs for each and every state. A simple fully color able paint job for the fed admins(if they want to put themselves out there and not drive an 'unmarked' cruiser). Optional More american looking cars, like the old Dodge Monaco and Ford Crown Victoria. Maybe even the Ford SVT Raptor if you can't get some made. You could even use the default police car models for it, you'd just need interiors. More light bars and 'unmarked' lights(including a pilot bar that is activated using flashers if someone wants to seriously go undercover). An actual admin tag only visible to other admins. A statewide frequency for each state( for talk between police and and a frequency for the whole state for the cb radios. 'Truck impounds' were someone will have to pay to get there truck back after doing something illegal. Now, I know this may make it harder to catch people, and it will probably spawn some organized 'runs'(think Smokey and the Bandit), but that would be the fun in it. You may even attract new players to the game, like actual police officers. Pro's More realistic. More fun. Con's Harder to catch criminals. May or may not spawn more illegal activities. May spawn illegal car racing with new vehicles. Anyway, what do you all think? Voice your opinion below.

I hope the image shows. This was taken in ETS2, but it's a Scania T Series Conventional mod on the steam workshop that I think should be added into ETS2 MP, along with the modders Parts Mod. The custom beacons on the truck from the parts mod make the picture even better (If modded trucks are not allowed, I have another pic that can be used for this instead).
