Damnlag Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Suggestion Name: Convoy Load Selection Suggestion Description: A option to start up a convoy and invite players around you to join into the convoy. Where the leader of the convoy can then choose a destination for everyone that will find a load or different loads, that all go to the same location for everyone in the convoy. Any example images: N/A Why should it be added?: While people can still find loads to places along the convoy route to go to instead, most of the time, but not always. Something like this could make things easier and keep convoy events organized better. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the bored hermit Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I see what you mean but i highly doubt it will be implemented as it is we have VTCs for a reason the owners or event managers in the VTC will make convoys annd we also have haulage64 coming up.

Caricature Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 This could be an interesting aspect to be added though I'm not sure how much of a workload it will take on the MP team. I'm guessing you're taking the idea of quests parties from MMORPGs and porting it over to the simulator. +1 to this but I would suggest to have such an idea be limited to about 3-5 within each city, whereby if there have been 3-5 convoy parties "hosted/started" already, no more can be "created" until 1 or more leaves that particular city. But just saying that alone, I'd imagine a lot of work/coding to be done.. so Idk.. goodluck for your suggestion though, I do like it.

Trucking Gekco Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 +1 Being from a VTC this feature would help during company convoys. Right now we need to sync our jobs through an external program and if you fast forward time in any way you need to resync. If there there was an option to sync loads with players in game and it stays that way regardless of time fast forwarding then that would be much better. This would also help streamers who might want to do a convoy with their fellow viewers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_.Queen Rosalie._ Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) It's borderline what's possible with the actual games code because all player loads are randomly generated when time is set, so in order to allow specific players get loads all going to the same location while keeping the random loads spawn would require a lot of modification to the way loads are generated, it's one of those things that is difficult to setup without actively editing people's games.

Rev. Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I'm sure there will be some form of function to force spawn a specific trailer. If not, then this game isn't programmed how I thought it was.

If not, then this game isn't programmed how I thought it was. Oh there are ways, but it requires intensive file editing, the simple "same trailers for all" would be to get everyone to download a mod that only spawns x trailer, grab a load going to y destination in singleplayer, join mp and the trailer should save, but it's a lot of work. people forget that not everyone is a part of a VTC or wants VTC specific things and with a game that isn't exactly design to run multiplayer, it's hard to code things to spawn identically for multiple players, I mean, there isn't anything like a "create your own jobs" in the game so really it's down to the luck of the draw.

Project Manager Luna Posted August 10, 2017 Project Manager Share Posted August 10, 2017 The problem is, that it isn’t possible to implement. How big is the radius, advisors cannot set to all people and the freight market isn’t so customisable.

slushbro Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 +1 This would be very nice. Convoys with the same load a rary especially if the people are driving for many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaisercharly Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 This good be implemented in a web-based environment. The game can identify your steam-friends, why shouldnt it be able to identfiy people that are in a "Party". And even force these members to drive the same load.

MB10 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I think this a very good idea for the vtc mainly especially the ones who might want cargo specific convoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LasTears Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 +1 Very good idea. Our team every time using any save files and this process so long and hard, Our team and most logistics needed for this party system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaktmaestarn Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 This is a realy good idea! It maybe can be posible on a separeate convoy server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[GLI] saeed kamali [CEO] Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Hello, Excellent, Nice idea !!! But TMP Still Has Some Bugs, So i think first they should solve that's and then add new options,, New options require time to test and debug...

NoFearzz Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 if developers would be able to implement something like this that would be amazing +1, All though I've had a lot of luck using the external contracts (WoT) and being able to get the same hauls as my friends.

Owen. Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 -1 We have World OF Trucks which gives the ability for friends to get the same trailers we also have Virtual Speditor which gives us trailers of our choice. But +1 due to the fact it'll make it easier to distinguish convoy participants and also it gives a higher chance of getting the same trailer. So I am in the middle with this suggestion Support | KB | Feedback | Appeal | Recruitment | Reports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Baker Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 It'll be very helpful option for VTC's to control convoy. +1 from me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trigzd Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I think this would be a really good idea, but I don't see it being implemented anytime soon. We already have tools like ETS2 Job sync helper, speditor etc. so as long as you figure out how to install them you're good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[TPH] SP Gaming Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I get your Idea it will make it faster and convenient for everyone to get in an convoy, but I'm sure they will not do it because it will need lot of time and as of now we have different tools to have same loads Add me on Steam Follow Me on Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harii Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 +1 Definitely a good and helpful idea. However it's unlikely that this is going to be implemented soon. VTC Leaders have their own methods to do the same exact thing and it's not an issue for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babou71 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 (edited) Hello, I like this idea because I often play with my friends but I never find the same mission as my friends and that is too bad. This is a great idea for the VTCs Regards, BABOU71 Edited November 7, 2017 by Babou71 BABOU71, un singe génial #TPMP & #TMP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowWolf2k7 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 I am not in a VTC, but do drive with friends in both ATSMP and ETS2MP, when we are driving in mp we have no issues finding loads to the same city and it is usually the exact same trailer using WoT. I do understand that it would be nice to haul the exact same trailer in a convoy, but imo this feature really isn't needed, since we can use WoT for a similar feature.

TruckersNEW-Hao Nan Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 The problem is that this is not possible. The radius is so large that consultants cannot be set up for everyone and the freight market is less customized. To do a sacred thing, one must work hard, and I know some rules.

NeonLeon Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Normally a good idea, especially for little convoys. But I think the normal "convoy system" is good enough for the players to join convoys. However.. The idea is good but I don't think the mod needs this.
