RogerDodger Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I wonder how he got the map to show in game like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Save Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 ^Maybe it will be a feature in the future to show the map while in game which would be SOOO useful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 It would be very useful and I'm sure the developers will get around to it eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kazzoom12 Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 What do you need a map for? We all know the traffic is at Tucson and around the race track. The rest is Light - normal traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Kopecz Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 So why does ETS2 have a Realtime Map??? We all know the traffic is at Rotterdam Europoort. Please saving you this trash comments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazzoom12 Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Why does it indeed. All it tells you is there are around 10 trucks in most cities except going east which is almost barren and the rest are at Rotterdam/ Amsterdam. Surprise surprise we all already know that. I suppose it's OK for people just starting mp but for most people who have been around a while or anyone with common sense its not that useful. The funny thing about common sense though is it isn't very common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 They have other uses as well. I mainly use it to keep track of large convoys, and I think the radio's use it for traffic reports. Or perhaps you want to find where someone is in-game. I think it's a great addition to the mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazzoom12 Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 So your saying the best way to find somewhere in game is to not use the in game map but to tab out and use a 3rd party source or worse when driving look at another screen and not where you should be driving? You may say you should pull over to check it but in all honesty how many are actually going to do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunstrider Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 ^Exactly, a realtime map would not be useful. We have the ingame map which only shows those who show up in the player list. And convoys most likely use their own teamspeak to keep track SCS has higher priorities such as developing the rest of the US, adding in any other features they are dreaming of, and trying to get the remaining licenses resolved so that there's more selection.

Digital Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I personally have found this map: http://ets2map.com/ very useful when I managed convoy's in Soarfly Logistics. Yes the communications are in TeamSpeak, but the map is a great addition which allows me to communicate everything going on during the convoy to the convoy controllers/operators, leaders and tails of the convoy. Gaps in the convoy? I know about them. Upcoming traffic towards or overtaking the convoy? I know about them. Whether the convoy is going too fast or slow? I know about it. When the convoy is approaching the next convoy controller? They know about it. After I know this information, communications via TeamSpeak are then sent to the appropriate person(s). So just like in ETS2MP, if the developers can implement it into ATSMP, then why not? Whether you use it is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunstrider Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Great map there. What server am i looking at (EU 1?) Wouldn't it make more sense to wait until the country is finished rather then releasing a prototype for the free areas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 It could just get updated once more states are released, same with how ETS2Map does it. Although I think there's a few roads missing in the south of Europe on that map still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
