Project reunion THE CONCEPT What if you could use your unique American International LoneStar in CD Road,or drive around in a fast Scania R730 in the Tucson Raceway and even take a transcontinental job from Europe all the way to America and go back doing the same route,what if the TMP Staff instead of having to operate four different servers in two different continents for two different games they could combine them in one and make it so people that have both ATS & ETS2 can enjoy both of them without having to leave their game or even the server,sounds awesome right?,well that the idea I have for a new game mode in TruckersMP. HOW IT COULD WORK Well in my opinion the way it should work is as follows:For the people that only have one game or the other they will only be able to buy the trucks they have on their respective game and will only be able to drive around on the map of that game,but if someone that has both games comes along using the truck from another game they will be able to see their truck and trailer even if they don't have that game. For example:I have both game on steam and I open TruckersMP and I fell like using my Western Star 5700XE and taking a job using the Reefer Trailer from Duisburg all the way to Las Vegas passing CD road on the way there,for people that only have ETS2 they will only see my truck and trailer but they won't be able to buy them if they only have ETS2,and when I get to the port in Calais im able to chose to go to Dover or Tucson that also has a port and from there I go to my destination,well anyways I finish that job and decide to take another one going back,but this time I want to use my Renault Magnum and a ETS2 Trailer,well the people that only have ATS will be able just like the guys that only had ETS2 to see my truck and my trailer but they will only be able to buy them or go to Duisburg if the have ETS2 as well. WHY WOULD THAT BENEFIT BOTH SCS AND TRUCKERSMP In my viewing SCS would greatly benefit from this,first of all because it would boost sells of both games simultaneously, because people that only have ETS2 will eventually see someone that has both games going around in their Kenworth W900 and think "yeah I need one of those" and go as fast as possible to buy ATS on steam just so they can drive in one of those as well,and It could work the other way around,someone that only has ATS will see a Volvo FH16 near Las Vegas and say "yeah I need one of those" and go rushing to buy ETS2 on steam just so they can drive in a Volvo. It also benefit the TruckersMP Staff because instead of having to pay 4 (not including the arcade and promod one) different servers they would only need to pay for 2 (one for each continent) or even just 1,which would take maintenance costs down and server costs down,they could also find a new feature and reason for people to become their Patreon. WHAT COULD GO WRONG Although sounding amazing I don't think its even possible or fisable to do this,both games although they use basically the same engine they have some key differences,and implementing then in one game or the other would be really hard,and everytime a new update would come around it would f*ck everything up,the servers would also need to change quite a lot to make it work,and if the server went down for some reason it would be impossible to play the game,and I think maybe licenses from the trucks manufactures would be huge problem to go around CONCLUSION Well that's basically it, my idea is to combine both games so that the player could travel between different continents and use trucks from one game or the other without having to leave the game or the server. Ps:sorry for wasting your time reading this nonsense but I wanted to share around this idea I had the other day while drunk,sorry for my bad English and bad grammar,hope you guys have a nice day.Bye!

Suggestion Name: Possible fix: Kick for Unreliable Connection Suggestion Description: Hello everyone, since TruckersMP refuses to do a reconnect button I have another Solution. Me and every single of my Friends have the same problem: If we are trying to go to the mechanic or garage in a city were many players are you get kicked for unreliable connection. So i dare to argue that this problem has everyone. Problem: you can't spawn in cities with many players. So the explanation is that you get kicked because you are having a to high ping while connecting. This is only a thesis but I'm pretty sure its like that. But anyways: The solution: What ever trigger this message /kick -- make an exception: Option 1: To not trigger in an No-Collision Zone. Note: This Option can also be Modified with Option 2/3. Option 2: A little timer so you can load everything. Option 3: To not trigger until the game from the user is FULLY synchronized. Note: When you are in a queue you also first load the map and then (if u are queue 0) you sync to the multiplayer. (= connect with delay -- but you still get (sometimes) kicked because you have to load much at once) I hope this problem is going to get fixed. Any example images: Why should it be added?: This would make the gameplay much nicer and fix peoples problem

Suggestion Name: VTC Link Suggestion Description:Because the 404 interface after some VTC links are opened causes users to doubt the existence of the VTC link, I suggest to reuse the deleted VTC link Any example images: Why should it be added?:Because I'm afraid that players can't find them if they want to use them, so I want to reuse these websites

So, here, we post suggestions that are jokes. I will start whit... In the 1st of April, anyone that should got banned on that day normally, will instead pulling whit a 130 HP car, a 2nd caravan model that have one cargo only, named "hell", and the weight of that cargo is 666 metric tons.

SPEEDLIMITS ACCORDING TO SIGNS IN SIM 1 AND NO CAR SPEED LIMITS some highway signs say 110 others say 140 and some dont have limits at all. can you make it so for speed limit when its 110 max speed is 110 and 140 max is 140 and so on with other limits too. second is that cars dont have speedlimiters usually but in sim1 they do so can we get rid of them? Thanks! from buroto

Suggestion Name: Timestamps in the in-game chat Suggestion Description: As a prefix to a players name time would be shown in the format of [h: mm tt] Any example images: Yup, take look below Why should it be added?: Detailed video reports, abusive chat reports or just nostalgia triggers when you take a look at old screenshots. I'd love to hear the thoughts of other players.

Suggestion Name: Suggestions for adding buses to the game Suggestion Description: Added the same permanent bus as Skoda Car Any example images: Why should it be added?: A lot of people like to drive passenger car in the game, that's why there are a lot of passenger car mods. Besides, there are already many bus stations reserved in the game map, why not use them to attract more players?

Suggestion Name: Let people know when you are typing. Suggestion Description: When you begin to type in chat, there should be a Text on top of your truck below your username. Any example images: Why should it be added?: It will be a nice little feature to add, and might be pretty useful. edit - removed some spelling mistakes

Suggestion Format: Event Suggestion Suggestion Name: Trailer Reversing contest. Suggestion Description: It would be a competition on diferent stages about parking trailers. It would show the skill of the driver. There are existing reversing contests in real life (for exemple Scania does it as a driver competition) and i think it would be awesome in TruckersMP. People with trailers would need to reverse in challanging spaces as fast as posible to a parking spot. People with the best time will win. Any collision will give +1 second penalty. There would be 3 Stages Qualyfying- People would need to reverse into a more simple parking space in a company between trailers or any objects under time. It shouldn't be too easy but neither too hard. They would have a maximum time to do this (enough time to reverse into the parking space) and if they couldn't do it in the time they would get disqualified. 1 Stage- Would be way more challenging, it wouldn't be a simple reverse but it would be longer with tight spaces and traffic cones. If driver would hit any cone more then 3 times, he would get disqualified. People with the best time would qualify for Stage 2 2 Stage- Now this would be a real challange. Driver will need to reverse into 2 parking spaces, with more challaneging spaces and after hiting 2 cones they would get disqualified. Drivers with the best time would get into finals to show their skills. 3 Stage- This would be the final stage where only a few will win. It would be way harder then any stage. (The stages are only my idea. It doesn't need to be exectly like that and can be changed) Rules- Players will need to use 3 axle Curtain trailer with no steering axles. Any collision with the truck or trailer gives +1 second penalty. There could be also 1 more championship about reversing Double trailers. Why should it be added?: it should be added because i think it's pretty good idea for another event. Right now there is Racing championship which is awesome but shows only racing skills. In this event people could show their skills in their truck, parking trailers and reversing in challangeing spaces.

? Automatic Report-System ? Suggestion Name: Automatic Report-System Description: A system that automatically detects when you get rammed and asks you if you want to report the player. Just type "/y" into the chat and the report will be created automatically. Any example images: Why should it be added?: When you get rammed, you either have to search for the player with the new search function or scroll through the whole list. However, both are somewhat distracting from driving. Alternatively, you have to stop to avoid new collisions. The system makes it easy to send off a report, as it automatically detects who caused the accident. Note: I don't know if this is technically possible, alternatively you could give both players this message, if the person who caused the accident uses the command, he would in fact blame himself.

Name: Player search function Description: Search players by their temporary ID or name. Example Images: Why should it be added: Especially in areas with a lot of traffic, it is difficult to find players in the tab list before they disappear and get moved to the history. With the search function you could find players better by their ID or name. This would prevent long scrolling trough the list and above all it would reduce the risk of accidents due to distraction. Best regards DrewK

How many of us have been in the area of Calais? Whether we are leaving the city of getting off the highway, the area is heavily populated. Players exiting the highway has to deal with this. Sometimes, rather long queues with anyone trying to queue cut to be on the exit ramp first. My suggestion would be to add a light at this intersection that would allow both queue's to flow (hopefully, in turns). Of course, there will still be light runners, but nothing can be done about them. Why should this be added? For 2 reasons Getting into Calais from CD Road/Lille areas can be a struggle in itself. Some players don't know how the intersection works and will just proceed on as if nobody's there.

Suggestion Name: Synchronising Weather with ability to toggle on/off Suggestion Description: Many people want weather to be synchronised right? But there's a minority that don't as well, what about having synchronised weather but the ability to turn it on/off for those with low-end PCs or who dont like rain. Any example images: Why should it be added?: It would add to the realism/simulation that TruckersMP is wanting, and it would be quite nice to have synchronised weather, plus people who don't like it can turn it off.

Suggestion Name: VTC map marker for everyone Suggestion Description: Add a feature that can make every VTC member see one persons marker if it is an VTC group job. Any example images: Why should it be added?: It will make Jobs even better.

Suggestion Name: Traffic lights at calais. Suggestion Description: Traffic Lights at calais Suggestion. Any example images: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2389036911 & https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2389036831 Why should it be added?: More safe to drive. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2389036911 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2389036831 In my opinion is that is more safer but always watch if just someone coming (for safely)

Bonjour, Je souhaiterais faire une suggestion. Cette suggestion sera que en jeu, les paramètres TruckersMP soient différents pour chaque profil. C'est à dire que pour chaque profils ETS 2, les paramètres en jeu de TruckersMP soient différents, pour qu'on puisse avoir des paramètres différents pour chaque profils ETS 2. Donc si on suit ma propositions, on pourrait avoir un TAG, une couleur de TAG, si on veut avoir un limiteur de vitesse ou non ... différents pour chaque profils ETS 2. Selon moi se serait un très beau ajouts à TruckersMP, personnellement cela m'aiderais et je pense que pour d'autres personnes aussi. J'espère que vous tiendrais compte de ma suggestion! Cordialement, St_Exu411

its weird how tmp didn't add colors to there caravan trailers i would like to see some color options for the caravan trailer and maybe some accessory's for it too i should be added because the plain white is not appealing to my eyes because of the color of the scout d car i bought and some more accessorys would go great with it

Suggestion name: Promods Rally Championship Suggestion description: It could be a new event for Promods. There are lots of dirt roads with big turns, icy snow roads and narrow challenging asphalt roads that I think could be really fun and cool for Truck rally. There could be 3 or 4 stages with differend routes and Players with best times would qualify and continue to differend stages. For the qualyfying for all players who would want to join it could be either a drag race or a simple quick race basicly anywhere with maybe jumps like in RallyCross. After Like more or less then 50 players they would qualify and for exemple on the first route players would have to get their time to atleast top 50 or less, depending on how many players would be on the event. then on stage 2 to maybe top 30, stage 3 top 15 and on stage 4 maybe top 7 (It's just my quick idea it doesn't need to be exectly like that ? ) Rules: Any Trucks with no trailers would be allowed. If anybody gets stuck either he gets disqualified (or if admins would watch they could teleport him back on the track.) For the Rally, players would have to line up behind each other for the rally starting point. After a player gets far enough or after few seconds another player can start behind him. Few routes for exemple: On this One in Iceland there could be many types of the rally routes. Then there is Kirkenes, in high speeds it could be really challenging and if you wouldn't be carefull enough you could fall of the mountain. There could also be a asphalt road for exemple like this one with these serpentines. if it would be posible it could be edited and added fence to make it even more narrower. There are lots of more posible routes with dirt roads that i probably didn't even discover yet but i don't want to spam this topic with so many screenshots. Why should it be added?: Well I think it could be a really fun new event that many players would enjoy and it could be done on Promods that never had any official events yet. Players could show their skills behind the wheel on challenging dirt roads, slippery snowy ice roads or in high speeds on narrow asphalt roads and try to get their best time and also try not to crash.

There should be a option to opening chats just for system messages and staffs.(example:/pinfo,kick-ban messages etc.) Suggestion Name: Chat System messages Suggestion Description:There should be a option to opening chats just for system messages and staffs.(example:/pinfo,kick-ban messages etc.) Any example images: no Why should it be added?:Because chat is so distractor.

Suggestion Name: Allowing Custom Paintjobs Suggestion Description: Allowing Custom Paintjobs in the game, Like a VTC can have their custom skin on the truck to advertise the VTC. Any example images: N/A Why should it be added?: Because It would put a new element of fun in Truckers MP, It would allow people to advertise stuff on the side of their trucks just like Trucks in real life do(pic 1). Pic 1:

Suggestion Name: Get an email on the status of your web reports Suggestion Description: When your web report is posted ("Your web report has been successfully posted"), changes status from new or waiting for admin to "waiting for admin", "declined" or "accepted", get an email alert to tell you about it. If an admin has left a message when accepted or declined, it should also quote that message in the email. Possibly make it an opt in/out service? So people will start to get the emails but at the bottom there will be the words opt out as a hyperlink, taking you to a confirmation page saying "Are you sure you want to opt out?". Also there should be a button on the reports page to opt in again if someone changes their mind about opting out. EDIT: Maybe make it an opt in thing instead. Any example images: Nope. Why should it be added?: So people know if their report has been declined or accepted so if it needs extra attention (eg, more evidence/video needed) and they will not forget about it/forget to check it.

Suggestion Name: Disable the AFK kick (not timer) when the server population is below a certain threshold. Suggestion Description: Disable the AFK kick when the server is nowhere near full capacity so that players can be a bit more leisurely in their trucking during off-hours. When space is needed (when the server is above 75%-85% full or something like that), start kicking the ones who have been inactive the longest. Also, let players know with a message in chat when they're about to be kicked, so they can move if they're not actually AFK. Any example images: N/A Why should it be added?: When the server is fairly empty, I find it pleasant to take longer breaks between loads and have a snack, people watch, or just lay back a bit.Sometimes this means parking in the garage, sometimes it's by the repair station, or in a lot, and sometimes it's on the shoulder or in a truck stop. During off-hours, when server demand is lowest, I think it would be nice to see other truckers doing the same, either taking extended stops in rest stops as well, or just parking nearby to chat a bit. Making this change would allow players to take it a bit easier when less people are on, and also increase the average amount of players online during those times.

Suggestion Name: Add chat channels. Suggestion Description: There should be different chat channels. For example if you want to create a convoy, you could do this: (image) Any poor edited example images: Why should it be added?: This would be a easier way to create events in game. There could also be [Global] chat too. You can decide if you want to join or leave the channels by doing a simple command.

Hello Description: Some sort of warning system as ”punishment”. Sometimes players are reported, on the website, for offences that could just be worth a kick or just not enough to be a ban. I reported a user who failed to pay attention to players in a roundabaout and drove out having me collide with him as I was coming around the roundabout. The admin who claimed the report denied it and deemed it to be just kick-worthy. The player in-game seemed to be completely unaware of what he had done. Why? I think this would be useful and perhaps also healthier for the community. With this players would be more aware of their mistakes and perhaps less would get banned for incidents that could be solved over a warning. With a warning system players will be aware of their mistakes and hopefully not repeat them. This would benefit everybody; players will be more educated how to properly drive in different situations and countries. Innocent players seen as troublemakers for mistakes/accidents will get a second chance. Players negatively affected will get some sort of relief knowing the player who caused them ”harm” in-game is aware of their mistake. Perhaps even Staff will learn new stuff too from unique situations. No images, but perhaps it would also notify a user in-game that they have a unread warning on the website in some way. EDIT: Just had another report denied because it was deemed only kick-worthy. This user failed to yield, slightly ramming me, blocking me and another player. He might've thought he had right-of-way when in reality he was in the wrong, now since my report got denied he might keep this thought and continue ignoring the give-way on that road. No information related to my report will be sent over to him, to either punish or explain his error. That is where my suggestion comes in.

Suggestion name: Suggestion on server division Suggestion Description: The big problem with TruckMP is the server division. To begin with, if there is a Server1 that is from EUROPE, because Latin Americans or Asians have to enter. The Asians have their own empty server that if all Asians would enter they would have it like those in EUROPE. The same case applies to Latin Americans and especially to Brazilians. They have the USA server, that there is nobody, because these people do not use them. This leads, that users like them with more or less 200 or 300 ping, annoy the game fun of people who try to play seriously. The ping limit that is set is very high and is useless. Why should it be added ?: What should be done is, first of all, tell him to go to his servers. One of the rules I would put is to download the ping from EUROPE servers or, by default, not let people from other continents enter. That they use their own servers for that they are paid and maintained having 10 people. Thank you
