dragonslayingmaster1000 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I just did a test making a sharp right turn at 100 km/h (62 mph) with a truck (no trailer) and the car and the car ended up flipping over but the truck was totally fine. How the hell does the truck not flip over!? This makes literally no sense and I have seen videos of cars going at high speed and making drifts and they don't flip over. I thought they fixed the problem in the scout car rework. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[ETS2.GR] Alligatoras Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 That's because your settings are set for the trucks. You can go and change all the settings but it's really bad idea. Maybe a new profile with customized settings just for the car should do the work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barba' Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 ben, because it is much lighter than a truck, it also has a moderate footprint at high speed and can overturn more easily at high speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leandro Santiago Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I've always wondered the same thing. It is worth remembering that the game was made for trucks, not for cars. So, I think, the settings really are meant for the trucks, as our friend said up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonslayingmaster1000 Posted October 9, 2018 Author Share Posted October 9, 2018 ^Yeah I guess even with the weight tweaks they did it's not easy to fix the car physics because it's a truck sim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making a sharp right (or left) turn at 100 Km/h (62 mph) makes no sense. People keep complaining about "Bad physics" when the truth is that there's no such thing, it's just "Bad driving".

Hawkmusen Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Skoda cars 100 km to return to the sudden return if you do not think that the physics is not bad It's easier to control Skoda with the steering wheel, but wants some experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Skodas are cars with truck physics. This car compared to other mods is way better, so you should be happy with the improvement that has been released last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogdwm Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Trucks have better stability because they are big and heavy. The cars are small, light and are more unstable. As far as I can tell, if you drive with a steering wheel, pedals and gearshift, the cars are more controllable. Maybe it helps you: - if you are newbie in TruckersMP community, go to Knowledge Base section; - if you need support, go to Help section or create a ticket here; - if you want to learn more about TruckersMP, Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, go to Guides section; - if you want to join a virtual trucking company, go to VTC section.

I don't drive like this normally but I just did this to prove a point. The car should not flip over but just drift like in real life but unfortunately I guess it's not possible because the car is based on a truck and they may not be able to change that.

In real life, cars don't drift when the driver loses control on a corner. Drifting is a deliberate technique which, for the most part, can only be done in RWD cars. In a genuine loss of control on a corner, the more likely result is that a car will simply either spin out, put its nose into the wall or tree on the corner, or plow through the corner. In a RWD car you have oversteer, which causes the back end to go out and keep the nose of the car pinned to the inside of the turn, which is why it's popular with sports cars because it allows faster cornering. FWD cars on the otherhand have understeer, which is where the steering becomes less effective the faster it takes a corner; the end result being if you take a corner too fast, the car will simply cut straight through it and you'll end up either hitting an oncoming vehicle, or flying into the field on the outside of the corner. Cars that are most prone to flipping over when taking a corner too fast are those with a high centre of gravity, like SUVs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am talking about the general in-game settings. Like the brake stability etc. These stuff can be changed inside the game. so in that case you can make a new profile and customize the settings to fit in the car.

dragonslayingmaster1000 Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 ^Braking sensitivity doesn't have to do with handling though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuly Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Working with mods is extremely difficult. It will take time for it to become perfect. Meanwhile, try to drive it slowly and increase the break intensity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowWolf2k7 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 @Vanellus the braking sensitivity is fine, they fixed that problem. I know, I drive with a sensitivity at about 10 to 15% and the car stops a lot sooner then my truck does when driving at 65 mph. as for cornering, I didn't notice any problems, however this test was done in ATS, where we have sloped corners on most highways and freeways. as for ETS, I cant say one way or another seeing as how I don't drive the car in that game, but if it is based on the trucks in it, then I can see it flipping over easily since a good amount of the truck there have a high center of gravity.

Kap. Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I think if the turn was quite sharp, it's quite obvious you will flip at such a speed. We can't make the car stuck to the ground as that would not be very realistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 It can basically be narrowed down to this: Yes, the car's handling could be better, but so could the skills of the person driving it who keeps crashing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to miss one point: we're not playing Need For Speed but a trucking simulation. It's quite normal to flip when taking sharp turns at 100km/h. Even if there's some room for improvements on the Scout car, the work done on it so far is quite amazing knowing how bad it was before. Today, this car is way easier to drive. If you're still flipping it, then the issue isn't the car itself but the player who drives it.
