Traffic Management

[AboutPanicNL]

Dear team of TruckersMP,

 

I noticed for the last few days that the traffic at Bergen - Oslo, has significantly increased, which sometimes resulted in very hectic situations. Since there is not always an admin online, issues can not always be solved, which is understandable. Today, I drove from Oslo to Bergen, and once I was passing the truck stop at the middle of the route, there was a huge issue with one of the drivers blocking the entire road. The person had been reported several times, but there was nothing that could be done, since there were no admins online at the time. This resulted in a 15 - 30 minute wait time before the player eventually moved. A lot of people were angry and pissed about this. Once I got through, I started making my way up to Bergen, to search for an admin, but he was really busy managing traffic at Bergen and the traffic lights on the way to Bergen.

 

Sometimes these situations can be found at different locations too, such as Europoort. I was wondering ( since the admins in police cars are quite busy with other things) if it would be an idea to introduce some sort of 'Traffic Management Unit' system in the game, where admins can recruit people to be a Traffic Management Unit, wich then can have a role with helping out in bad traffic conditions. It is just a idea to start with, because today there was absolutely no way of getting to Bergen for over an half an hour. If anything like this will be added in the game, I wil be a volunteer to be one of those units, since I always try to help people out and I played ETS2 MP for over 400 hours.

 

I hope you guys can get some inspiration about my idea

 

Much Thanks, U guys are awesome. Keep up the good work.

This basically would be a second admin team, since you would need some permissions to get things sorted out. This will eventually lead to the same situation as admins (no 24h coverage, ...).

We are looking into expanding our admin team to offer a better solution for this. The traffic lights at the roadworks are expected to be fixed in a near future update, so that will help alot as well.

 

I will reject this suggestion as we have no plans to create such a rank.
