Scania LTD l Top Bloke Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 I had a look around on the Forums and I surprisingly didn't anyone posting anything about GPS's that told you how far until you turned off. I seem to get stuck in the situation of a truck riding the inside lane going 70km (bearing in mind I follow the speed limits) in an 80 zone. Approcahing that driver, going for the overtake then realising I was meant to turn off at the intersection i've just gone past Like since i'm so focused on the overtake and not hitting anyone and looking for traffic coming down the outside lane I take my eyes off the GPS however if there were to be an option in settings where you could in-able or disable (whether you liked the idea or not) the GPS to say "Turn right in 5km" (since 1km in this game is like 100m in real life haha). You know just give you some notice verbally of whats going on as you cant physically look at 3-4 things at once, specially with a keyboard and mouse, we have ears why not hear something instead of just looking. I feel like it would be a cool concept a bit like the concept I suggested yesterday about having windows roll up or roll down however this would be more useful and could potentially stop people from overtaking, realising that the turn they are going past is theirs and then cutting across all lanes of traffic and hitting you. Let me know what you think Kind Regards, Top Bloke | Scania LTD Director Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonathanGJM Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 +1 Good idea, but I don't think TMP can implement this into the game. There might be a 3rd party mod around already in the Steam Workshop. Kind Regards, JonathanGJM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirrland Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 I’m pretty sure Viva Trucking developed a concept of this and put it on YouTube. However, I’m pretty sure that the video has since been removed as I’m struggling to find it.

Jxsh_y Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Hello! That sounds like a great idea, however it'd take a while to be added as they'd have to make it compatible to many different languages and impliment that for the entire map, as well as all the DLC's that may be owned by some. Kind regards, Jxsh_y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieStockEnte1 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 It is a very good idea But pity that it not exist I am a duck and i like ets2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rootyyy Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 It sounds like a good idea, however it's an SCS project. Most satnav's now warn you when you need to turn off, however the ETS2 one does warn you what lane to be in, perhaps you should just try glance over and see what's coming up?

Guest Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 i think the ets 2 is a gps speaking phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/!/ James Rooki Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 It would be awesome. But I think its hard to put it in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Yes, that's a very good idea, but the SCS should bring it in first. And it can take time to adapt to all maps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Hello, i saw it some forums. I guess it 's not truckersmp' s job. It's a good idea but I think it's unnecessary. because there are many maps. such a small project will take a lot of time, better things can be done in this time frame. instead of; if you cant see the map, I would recommend glasses. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Best Regards.
