Small question about TruckersMP and the Special Cargo DLC.

Hi,
I've noticed that apparently, the Special Cargo pack wasn't fully working with TruckersMP since you cannot do the escort missions. Im a bit curious, so im wondering if there will be any opportunity for the dlc to be fully compatible in the futur? If not, I would like to know why. (My guess is that it has something to do with the AI traffic in general? Since there is no AI vehicles in TruckersMP.)

You are correct that special transport is not supported because of the AI vehicles that escort you. This would cause too many conflicts with other players and would be a mess in general. 

Hello @Flaming..

I completely agree with you would make a lot of confusion among players. what if this DLC only went to the arcade server where there is no collision? it's an idea.

Due to the nature of the simulation server, traffic may become congested if an AI escort car runs in a place with heavy traffic. However, it would be interesting to see if this applies in the future in low-traffic cities or arcade where there are no traffic servers.

That's dlc cargo is over size let say you were driving in one lane traffic with oversize cargo and there is oncoming traffic coming and if you stop on the road you will block the behind you drivers or cause an accident in unwillingly you will report for collisions.

Well for now only option is Arcade server for this kind over size cargo haul.

The TruckersMP community has proven more than once that it is capable and willing to congest even a simple road without the additional help of AI traffic. 🤣

That's right 😁

I just wanted to say that escort cars and heavy cargo can cause traffic jams.

This type of cargo despite being nice would not be very recommendable for simulation servers, even being arcade, first that the cargo does not pass anywhere, the theme of the game extends a route to it, so much so that there are vehicles stopped by vehicles in the game where the cargo passes and that would be a general mess, even in scs convoy you can not get this type of cargo, because the game does not allow and you end up staying off to start the route.

I believe there would also be a potential licensing issue with players who don't own the Special Cargo DLC seeing the vans. The only other option is to not show the vans for other players, but at that point you might as well drive on singleplayer/convoy.

Didn't the same issue arise when the Krone trailer DLC was introduced and players without the DLC were shown a beautifully drafted replacement* by the TruckersMP team?

i feel like the massive issue of the loads going down the cd road ect, imagine it on like kirkenes road. The absolute chaos that would emerge. Its a shame but TMP isnt really suitable for wide loads. Maybe try doing convoy mode on normal ets (i think its supported there)

Tune in 12pm-2pm (UK TIME) every Sunday for the Lunch Time show!

I guess it could be made so the AI was only visible to you ? That way it wont affect the general Traffic ?
