Bubba Stik (NOR) Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I keep seeing drivers who can't seem to control their trucks, they are all over the road and causes alot of accidents. I think this is due to some people using the keyboard or a gamepad to steer the truck with. I suggest only allowing mouse or a steering-wheel to be used as a controller. I don't know if this is technically possible though, so it's just a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lxl Semper lxl Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 (edited) That's virtually impossible and I don't think that's the case in this matter the case is plain busy areas attracts poor judgement at times and people still think its cool to treat the game like GTA rather than a simulation or answer another way the user is going too fast to react to the conditions ahead and start to lose control when trying to adjust too late.... or even better still they are going too fast round a bend or jerk the steering too fast that will alter the trucks trailer or stability of the unit which in-turn will make you lose control again..... There is endless possibilities of how this could happen its not just down to k/b + mouse or steering wheel or even game pad as I personally have managed them all at different times and never had an issue! its always down to drivers error Edited June 26, 2017 by lxl Semper lxl Information about MP | In-Game Rules | Forum Rules | How to become an IGA | Guides for MPHelp | Report Someone | Game Sever Status | Staff List | Recording Software | Allowed Mod's MP Treat people how YOU expect to be treated and your journey will be nice and relaxing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I' ve seen a lot of youtubeers using the keyboard to drive. Well I drive with mouse, but you have to concentrat yourself so much... that's why you see a lot of accidents..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.StεvƐ. Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 -1 it's not what people use to drive, it's how they drive. Who's to say that someone who can't drive in a straight line with a keyboard is going to be magically 1000 times better with a wheel? Plus it's cost, not everyone is able to afford to buy a wheel or a decent mouse to control with. I mean, the only reason I got my G27 and my SKRS was through a mix of luck, xmas and birthday help and just saving in general. So no, plus, something like this would require a lot of code manipulation to exclude the use of certain inputs for drive controls, it's just not worth it for the slim to no gain, if it was going to make a difference like night v day then sure, but it's more like night v night with a few stars in the sky, not much changes, but at least it looks a little nice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Biu] - Luo Shen Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 -1 This is not necessary, and truckersmp cannot restrict the controller! It also reduces the fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[TPH] SP Gaming Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Not a good idea mate. It's not on what you're using to drive. it's in your skills and discipline . Add me on Steam Follow Me on Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerAmpelmann Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Hello @Bubba Stik (NOR), When posting suggestions please use the suggestion format: I personally like driving with a gamepad. It doesn't beat the wheel, but does the job well. The controller I use has never made me a danger to players around me, so banning the use of gamepads or keyboards as controllers would hardly change anything. It could just have a drastic effect on the player base, especially the size of it. Ready to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#null Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 -1 I know a lot of players use keyboard and they drive very carefully. The reason why there are so many crashes in the game is nothing about what you use to drive, it is about whether you drive carefully. I am a nice guy.

Weepydruid Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 -1I play this game with keyboard I even have a few beers while i'm at it yet I can keep in my lane.... Next we should ban players from driving all together.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanguinem Luna Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 -1 from me. I use a Wired Xbox One controller/gamepad to drive and I drive perfectly fine. I would almost dare say nearly on par with people who use Steering Wheels. As others have said here, it is not the device that the player is using to drive, it is the player themself that is bad at driving. Not to mention, even if TMP wanted to do this, I don't think they can. That would mean they'd have to severely alter the actual game and they would almost certainly never do something like this.

Caricature Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 -1. You probably haven't met many people in this community who drive even better with keyboards or gamepad steering. imho, the way your suggestion is phrased is a rude way of thinking and categorizing/stereotyping people within this community. I suggest that you improve on having more respect for people and their choices for what they wanna use for their type of controls.

naxcel ( PL ) ( GB ) Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) -1 I bought that game, spend money on it and on dlcs. If game has option to use different controllers so it's up to me whitch one i use. Using only steering wheel is not and shouldn't be required. Not every player have and maybe some of them don't want to have a wheel. Many people are much better on keyboard than that silly, yelling kids playing on their brand new, shiny G29. Most important is to drive safetly and carefuly. Nobody should be forced to use one specific item if there are other options. Game is for everyone! It's like: don't drive bike on the road - roads are for cars. Does everyone have to buy a car then? It's people choice. BTW: how you know for now if someone driving on gamepad or steering wheel? I think there is no way to see the difference between mouse, game pad and wheel. Edited June 30, 2017 by naxcel ( PL ) ( GB ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
