Traffic Jam Helpers

[Ben (NL)]

Suggestion Description

Create a team of people, put them in a pilot car, assign them to area's where traffic is heavy like the DC-road. and give them the option to pick up a truck who is blocking the road, or got stuck etc and place them at the side of the road (teleport function) so traffic can continue very fast.

 

Secondary i was thinking of another option for them to spawn a barrier or fence to control traffic. For example Duisburg repair shop; for 10 seconds place a one-way barrier on the road so all the traffic can leave the shop and hit the road and then reverse it so traffic on the road can enter the shop. The same option on the DC road to stop overtaking trucks when there is a congestion (at the railway) so they don/t make things worse.

 

Why should it be added?

I red a comment on a rejected simular topic that  'jobs' like safety officers/ patrolling officers etc. was mentioned many many times but the management had no plans or needs for this. But i think a lot of people (including myself) really love doing this job, so why not give them what they want and then i think you will get:

- More happy players who want to help and just can 'control' a little part of the map.

- Less traffic jams and congestion's so even more happy players :p

- More time for the police to have a break and eat a donut and don/t have to deal with congestion's

This is simply a Game moderator's job. If you wish to help out with keeping peace on the servers then you should apply at the next available occasion. It is almost very certain other players will not listen to you or a player which would be in charge of such a duty. Congestions are created due to poor road design, as SCS doesn't build roads to suit multiplayer additionally jams are caused by players who have accidents, blocking the traffic is simply not needed. If you were to block an enterance to a shop for example, the congestion would be huge as players will line up to go there anyway, or simply f7 + enter which means they cannot even leave the service.
