Happy Rogue Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 The lag and dysync would be horrid, I'm all for F7 and enter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tandre Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Yes i like the idea. Even better would be if you could spend a line between two trucks and pull them upp But im stil with Des to becuze lag and desync would just fuck it upp. So if the team could fix it without desync that would be great!

Tandre Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 -1 Pointless, F7+enter is in the game, if you flip your truck and have to f7+enter just tell you friend to do the same. There are many other things that are way more important than this. No this is a fantastic idea. This wont work if your truck are flipped but if you get stuck in a trench ......

Mix. Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Stop being lazy and use F7 + enter. + an issue this can cause, is that it can be abused to damage other trucks. If it teleports the truck on the road where another truck is already parked, then both of them will go flying. - I'm not saying I'm Wonder Woman; I'm just saying no one has ever seen me and Wonder Woman in the same room together.

Reaper Posted January 5, 2015 Author Share Posted January 5, 2015 Stop being lazy and use F7 + enter. + an issue this can cause, is that it can be abused to damage other trucks. If it teleports the truck on the road where another truck is already parked, then both of them will go flying. I feel like you have not fully read my original post, I said: "A simple /tow command. If Truck A is within 10-15m of Truck B, Truck A could type /tow [2]. Truck B would write /towaccept [1]. This would simply teleport Truck B into a parked position 3-5m behind Truck A. Truck B could mirror the direction Truck A is facing, and simply be placed behind a few meters." I also suggested in a post afterwards, this could be achieved using coordinates ingame, the same way the admins/streamers use coordinates to move around. It also has nothing to do with being lazy. It is more along the lines of encouraging players to interact with each other, I thought about what is a very common situation in Euro Truck, truckers stuck out on the road (it really doesn't matter how, crashing because you're a bad driver, lag, someone ramming, it's irrelevant), you always come across someone who is stuck, somewhere. This simple (albeit pointless I admit) command would give players the power to do something about it, which in turn gives players the tools to interact with someone, in this particular situation. This is not a bypass to the services function, by any means, It would just eliminate the need to constantly use it even when it's not really needed to fix some simpler issues. I do not think however, IF in some way this would get accepted, that this kind of feature should be implemented right now. As alot of you have said, there are far more important things to take care of first, than adding silly commands for players. I think it's best to make these kinds of suggestions in any case, in the future if something like this seems possible, we already have a record of it, and some feedback and so on so forth.

Sorry for late replies, and a (late) Happy New Year to all I have read your post. You just didnt understand my post. Truck A is stuck. Truck B wants to help. Truck B parks up and is ready to tow. Suddenly truck C appears and parks up behind truck B. Truck A accepts the tow and truck A is teleported on top of truck C and both of them goes flying. This is really not needed at all. The F7 + enter is enough. - I'm not saying I'm Wonder Woman; I'm just saying no one has ever seen me and Wonder Woman in the same room together.

DrToxic Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 The ability to drive a flatbed and pick up/tow a friend/stranger to their destination.... I like this idea. Screw towing trailers, I wanna tow TRUCKS! +1 Ah, my apologies, I understand now. Fair enough, I suppose that would cause some issues, but I think the chances of that are quite minimal. Thank you for the feedback ^^ Why not ghost the truck being recovered during said operation. I can forsee ghosting being a requirement to mount a truck on a flatbed trailer. On a second thought, this would work much better within the VTC's where the players have some chance of knowing eachother enough to /not/ tow the recoveree away from their destination.. Trolls block people now, imagine if they can pick up your truck and drive you around? of course, you'll be stuck on the trailer because nobody is allowed to sit in the truck being recovered... no chance of letting the handbrake off and rolling off the trailer.

CRAZYdog113 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I do like this idea but it could cause some server lag. If a lot of people keep crashing they will have to be teleported and this causes lag. This is why you can't use the enter key to finish a job, as your truck teleports and causes too much lag. Add me on steam HERE if you wish. Just message me saying that you found me from the ETS2MP Forum. Have Not uploaded many of my deliveries as waiting for STVTC TruckLive.
