Suggestion Name: Shared jobs 'hub' Suggestion Description: I image it like this: There'll be an extra option in the job dispatcher, or perhaps when you open the chat window, where it says 'shared jobs hub' or something like that. Example: I go to Amsterdam. I'm lonely and have no friends and I would like to drive with other people, but it'd be a hassle when I had to keep asking in chat all the time. So, I make a job with the dispatcher, or select a job with the in-game options. Then, I click 'share job in Hub' option, after I've accepted the job. A popup would then appear in the chat window of people in the city I'm in (In this case, Amsterdam), saying something like 'Lowlander is sharing a job to [Location] (give it a job ID, let's say, 1). 'Type /sharedjob 1 for details' -> Mr T. Rucker who is also in Amsterdam would like to go on that job with me together. They type '/sharedjobs 1' and see the info. They can then type /sj decline 1 if they change their mind, or /sj accept 1 if they wish to join me. If they accept, they'll get the destination to the starting company where their cargo is waiting for pickup. They can they go with me complete the job, or we can wait longer for more people to join us. To prevent breaking convoy rules, there would be a maximum of 4 slots per 'shared job'. If I recall correctly you can already share jobs but not in a manner like this. I think this could make it easier for people to find others 'on the fly' to truck with, even in busy areas. If you wish not to get such offers, there would be an option to opt-in/out to see/not see such offers pop up. -> Offers made will automatically be removed from the listing in 5 minutes (to prevent them staying up indefinitely) or when the one who created the offer de-lists it before the 5 minutes run out. Once delisted, the person offering can re-offer the job, if so desired. Any example images: N/A Why should it be added?: I think this bring more 'social' interaction to the game for people who don't usually socialize as much, or people who want to do things together but not with a specific VTC, stuff like that. It's just something nice to have, I feel. I think this could also help in a sense that, since you're going with multiple people, you'd want to go somewhere else where normally there aren't that many people (somewhere that is not C-D) as you won't be lonely because there's others with you. Thoughts?
