Tablecookie Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 @chipmunk179 don't think tricle suggested it (pl). That's his preference... I, being a cat, nocturnal creature, do not need light personally, for example. But you, humans, do make this rule, so I try to follow the rule. Can you see?

Trickle Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 @Tablecookie is right, that is my personal opinion and I am perfectly aware that it is unrealistic - as are many dreams of a better world ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipmunk197 Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 But the admins every single time it's night telling people to turn lights in but I see at least 20+ people who don't every night shift and when it's dark dark and no lights on you'll get rammed by people who can't see you coming (it's happen to me with someone with no lights on he got banned) On 8/17/2016 at 10:08 PM, Trickle said: @Tablecookie is right, that is my personal opinion and I am perfectly aware that it is unrealistic - as are many dreams of a better world ;-) It's an issue that can be easily fixed by kicking players who do it iv reported people who do and most times they'll be banned but some admins say it's kick able but I put the report in again and they'll be banned so it's my suggestion to auto kick them and then problem solved and nobody will be banned or rammed by then with no lights on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tablecookie Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 @chipmunk179 it is Not what I want cause I don't see why it is a problem really but you, this time, portrait yourself to say this is what you want.

Tablecookie Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 @chipmunk179 I gave you a rep point. Do you know why? It is because I do follow the rules (I was making a joke) but I do like to leave it to the individuals to judge what is right or not. As you can see from my record, I don't do anything too bad. You?

Mirrland Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Not gonna lie - seems like a bad idea, due to the fact that if someone wants to go afk and thus turns the engine off what happens then? -1 TruckersMP - Staff Team Member - Twitter | Steam | Facebook | YouTube | Discord - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

separnz Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 kicking if you've been warned isnt enough however 1-3 hours will teach them but then the demerit system may get annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 @chipmunk179 I think there are more important things than AutoKick with no lights. We can do without this supplement because they IGA who watch, write and remind of the power is turned on the lights, they say the ghost driving is illegal and kick players going without lights in the 19.00 - 7.00. As for your film just send a report on these players along with recorded video;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chileno Trucker Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 im wondering is too difficult to press a key 2 times after turning on your truck? apparently the answer is yes, today i have seen 5 ppl in 3mins without lights driving in the night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipmunk197 Posted August 20, 2016 Author Share Posted August 20, 2016 I see at least 10 people per night on the road to Calais with out light on I sometimes sit there and watching everyone crash and stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Dragon Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) Although there might be higher priorities, obviously, I actually support this idea. I've lost count of how many times I've come across people without lights on at night. It's an actual hazard! More than once I almost had accidents because I couldn't see them. The headlights of any vehicles are not there simply to let the driver see his/her way, but also to let other drivers see them. When you are cruising in the dark it is very easy to not notice a nearby vehicle if it has no lights on. By default, ETS2 and ATS gives the player a ticket if they drive for a certain distance without the headlights on past 7PM and before 7AM. I don't understand about programming but it can't be difficult to hook up a script to that function of the game so when the game detects the player is moving without the lights on for a while, the ticket triggers the script which then kicks them out of the server. Simple as that. +1.

If not, then read on... I think you misunderstood, David. It's not about simply having no lights on, but driving with no lights on. So the auto-kick idea is exclusively for those who are driving around without their headlights turned on. And that's a thing that the game itself already sort of addresses by itself by giving a infraction ticket for driving for a certain distance without lights on.

Even though you know what I'm saying I have to say 8pm is a better time because it dosnt really go dark till 9pm and sun comes up at half 5am so I think it should be 8pm till 6am then it's up to the players but if they are like me iv got my parking lights on 24/7 coz that's how I learnt to drive and my lights are on between 5 and 6 till around 9am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
