Chriszx9 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Right after I noticed this strange phenomenon, I've arrived to the conclussion that the last update might be causing it. According to the last released version, posted here Changelog: Other players are visible on the world map (blips); Added winter mod; New synchronization; Optimizations. I'm not really sure if that is the main cause, but I've seen a lot of status, and bug reports with " Invisible / Ghost Trucks " or " Sync Problems" Here's an example. Therefore, I'm writing this with the only purpose to warn you. Be careful out there. You don't know when a truck will appear, right in front of you, in the wrong way. Ah... To sum up, it looks like the steam discount sales brought a lot of unexperienced drivers to the game (Or trolls). But you surely knew that already. So, be double careful Thanks for your time. Happy trucking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Dragon Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Yeah, I noticed this delay in spawning/rendering other players around you from day 1. I really don't like it. I almost had a couple accidents because of it. I'm glad that is not something just on my end. Some people should really get a license before even thinking about buying Euro Truck Simulator 2 or American Truck Simulator. Drive safely, folks! < < < Don't bet on sinking ships because they'll turn your chips to trash! > > > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Cage[PL] Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I just had an accident by something like this and now I'm not overtaking anyone on non highway roads. I also noticed that it also depends on the player's ping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chriszx9 Posted December 15, 2015 Author Share Posted December 15, 2015 I know, this problem is not new, we had it, but sporadically. Now it's more usual, and dangerous!

Chriszx9 Posted December 15, 2015 Author Share Posted December 15, 2015 Did you see how fast did the dot appear, and how long did it take to the truck to be fully loaded? You can't deny me that wasn't dangerous D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt_Tailor Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Can't say how many time's this has happened to me, connection has maintained the same as the previous patch. Just going to have to wait for another patch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Dragon Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Yeah, I do hope they change/fix this. So what we can now see players on the GPS? That's no good. Most of the time those little dots will easily go unnoticed. I barely ever notice them, to be honest. My focus is always on the road, after all. I only give glances at the GPS most of the time to know where I'm going. Even so, it's best for all measures to have the trucks render/load/spawn in (bleh, same thing) on the distance they did before. Some people should really get a license before even thinking about buying Euro Truck Simulator 2 or American Truck Simulator.

John [RO] Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I'm already used to seeing trailers only roaming the highways. I know there's a truck right in front of them, but can't see him.

Darth Wazawai Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 meh this makes the game more fun And makes wonderful videos... Tho Idk what you guys are complaining about... the only trucks that I can't see are the 0 ping/distance ones, everything else is drawn like normal. Tho I've noticed the "delay" at ports.

Mike Dragon Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 ^ I don't know about you, but to me, most (if not all) trucks have 0 ping until they appear 20 meters or less near me. It's upsetting. Some people should really get a license before even thinking about buying Euro Truck Simulator 2 or American Truck Simulator.

Aragon Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 It's much more noticeable with the admin camera, sometimes they don't appear until after you've already gone past the person, even on the default 100 flyspeed.

.StεvƐ. Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 its a pretty nasty thing at the moment, whether its to reduce lag when someone is within your area or something, but its a little unnerving when theres a blip on the map yet no truck till there less than 100m infront, not to mention when somones behind you sometimes they don't render in till the last minute, ive had many little accidents where ive stopped for lights and someones ran into the back of me, whether that's down to the rendering being screwy or just that some people don't know the actual location of the brake pedal is, ill never know. in all seriousness though, this does need attention very soon before we get "the big one" happen out there one the roads.
