Unless the TruckersMP team's creativity has drastically improved, I'd like to avoid another default skin made by the TruckersMP team. The one that replaced the Krone trailer DLC was completely painted in plain light grey with a white "Buy Krone DLC" lettering on it, with non-moving tires that looked like bottle caps. You shouldn't deprive anybody of the right to not agree to a suggestion for a given reason. It is valid and justifiable to decline downloading additional content, in particular if it is of significant high data volume and can only be used by VTC members.

This announcement is proudly presented by ChatGPT, the chatbot you can trust.

... provided that players in that area would suddenly start to care about road signage, road markings and mutual consideration.

For gross vehicle weight , see @Granite [SVK]'s suggestion here:

This road signal allows vehicles to make a right turn at a traffic light even when the regular red light is illuminated. The green arrow is typically displayed alongside the red light, and it indicates that right-turning traffic is permitted to proceed. It allows for a more efficient flow of traffic, as right-turning vehicles can proceed without having to wait for a separate green light. As long as a green arrow is displayed, no other traffic crossing the one directed by the arrow may proceed.

Looks like a solid base for a serious endeavor. Only European driving time and rest periods are missing and should be considered. I wish there were more players with these ambitions!

The ideal speed one should limit oneself to is the speed at which one can permanently control one's vehicle. This speed often deviates from the posted speed limit, as the posted speed limit is only valid for a specific segment of a road and considers ideal conditions, for example dry weather and undamaged road, etc.

It seems to be a twist of fate that of all things the TruckersMP logo resembles an american truck , though American Truck Simulator carves out a rather miserable existence in Multiplayer.

Why not become a TruckersMP team member yourself? Just regulary check the announcements of TruckersMP vacancies and apply for becoming a game moderator.

Out of curiosity: why in particular would I love this suggestion? As a matter of fact, I'm torn on this one. Against the background of realism, I'd welcome more realistic features, if they exist that way in the real world. But against the backgrounf of safety, these vehicle configurations bear an increased risk of distraction to the driver.

Skilled drivers seek a challenge in the narrow winding roads in the alps. Arcade players seek a challenge in driving along a straight road between Duisburg and Calais. To each their own.

Here is my idea: Conduct an annual Truck Driving Championship alternating between Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, where truck drivers compete in navigating a course in different categories, for example: operate a truck with a single trailer or without a trailer operate a truck with a single trailer and three axles operate a truck with a single trailer and four axles operate a truck with a single trailer and five axles operate a tanker trucks, which carry liquids operate a flatbed truck operate a tractor-trailer combination with two trailers Requirements: Applicant must have an accident-free record for 12 months prior to entry and participation References: https://www.trucking.org/national-truck-driving-championships

Not at all. The TruckersMP rules clearly state that European road laws and signage must be followed in ETS2 and American road laws and signage must be followed in ATS. If 200 simulation fans "coincidentally" drive back and forth the same route and additionally follow the national traffic regulations, they are not violating any of the rules.

Maybe the realistic simulation fans of this community should come together and create an unannounced convoy from Duisburg to Calais? Just to show how a truck is meant to be driven.

I'd love to see it implemented. But as with many other mods, it is unlikely to happen.

Whew! Where do I start? The most disturbing incident happened on a freeway, in an area that I considered as safe because it was far from major cities. I'm on my last third of an uneventful journey. The job: deliver a high power cargo. Time and distance pass achingly slow, but hey, that's part of the job. But then a rig appears in the rear mirror! To no surprise, it catches up fast. When it is right next to me, it suddently steers hard right directly into my rig and sends it into the roadside ditch. My truck, trailer and cargo receive substaintial damage. I'm angry and devastated. Still overwhelmed, I manage to open the chat but can't produce more than what concerns me most in that second. "Why!?" To which the perpetrator answers "Because Renault sucks!"

My most driven road in TruckersMP? None. I prefer to drive on inhabited maps where road users respect the traffic regulations --> Singleplayer.

I didn't ask for a quote. I asked you how do you think the TruckersMP team can cover the additional costs for hosting your video data.

I am quite excited to explore new landscapes, cities, and diverse road networks. If SCS continues tp put their dedicated attention to detail into their work, we can expect a mindblowing DLC that will outshine all previous DLCs.

How do you plan the TruckersMP team to cover the costs for hosting this constantly increased data volume?

Is this the beginning of the end of Duisburg and surrounding areas as we know it?

Disabling beacons, flares and/ or flashing lights will only affect their visibility on your computer.

@[S.PLH]Warrior, The Scout's physics model isn't precisely that of a 1,8 tons passenger vehicle. It's based on a truck with the power of a spacecraft to make its acceleration look similar to a passenger vehicle, which makes it the first choice for trolls. And maybe for astronauts . So instead of temporarely suspend the Scout, I'd improve its physics model. This will make the Scout less attractive for trolls. And maybe for austronauts.
