Traffic light perspective problem

[Lao Li]

 

First-person perspective stopped at the stop line, unable to see the traffic light

It is a great idea not to get too close to the stop line if you can't see the light - that's what we do if we can't see the light in real life if we get too close. So just keep a distance that allows you to see the lights. Alternatively you can use exterior cam.

Yep thats an "Rellife-Issue" - Thatr even happens if I come to close to the light with my car since I am very tall and can't see traffic lights through my roof. Just keep some distance and ingame use the third person view if you got to close.

Keep distance

Considering that you already have 2 bans in your punishment history, follow the instructions of the forum friends.

Section 2 of the rules doesn't correlate to Section 4. I'd be more concerned about the possible hacks they have installed.

• The road from repair to their location wasn't drove on. So that indicates a TP Hack.
• Their money is sus. Nearly all 6's? Makes me think they used a money hack so they don't have to deliver anything.

 

As for the core of the post, Yes. Europe's Lights are like that. Where the light is placed on the stop line and it's impossible to see from the driver's seat. You either have to stop far enough back to see it. Or, use Camera 2. Course, the other option is to just run it since nobody's around.

Teleporting can be achieved with advanced save editing - The money can be achieved with save editing as well. None of them currently violates any of our rules.

While i can't confirm for sure, that isn't save editing for single player.

• There's a workshop mod that i've used in the past: Easy Money.
• If this is Single Player. They probably used the Free Camera TP. Similar to how GM's TP around. Because there's no way they would of gotten the coords from that exact spot, save edited, and included truck rotation to not be facing the wrong way.
  → There's also a TMP Hacking Community out there with a hacked trainer making it easy for some crazy hacks.

This is prob EXACTLY why the lights are always on the opposite side of the intersection in both China and Canada, for max visibility and max throughput of the intersection (so you don't have to stop TOO FAR from the stop lines)

Well my friend,

I think you're just looking for subject. Considering your terrible punishment history of bans, I also recommend that you follow the instructions of the forum friends.

 

A weak hug!

Exactly why America has them either across the road or configured in the center. I can't imagine getting neck pain just from looking up because it's right above.

 

The city revamped this busy intersection to make the lights go diagonally from on corner to another.

Know your place rookie. I recommend you stop trying to mini mod the forum because of their ban history and to stay on topic of the post.

Stand back a little or switch to the overhead camera. Best regards

[SjefNL]

Thats real life, Most of them have one in the distance or low right side.

At least in UK there are repeater lights ahead. This also lets you see if the nearby road is about to get red light, so you can be ready when your light is about to go green.

When approaching the light, you must stop at a distance where you can see it, but if for some reason you cannot see the light, you can look around using the right mouse button. If you violate the red light, you may be removed from the game or kicked off the server for careless driving. I hope this explanation has been helpful to you.

No admin is going to kick/ban for running a red in a desolate part of the map. That only applies for CD Road.

[StackOverflow]

That's wild to call the man out for his ban history

 

But most people already said stop before the line.
You can actually change your position in the cabin with the F4 key, lower your seat or something xD
