Hyperfinity Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Hello! If you have played vanilla ETS2, then you know that the types of AI vehicles are very diverse. They range from buses, to vans, to different cars. I was wondering if these vehicles could possibly be integrated into TruckersMP, the same way the Scout car was. The Scout car has a use thanks to caravans, and I am sure a use could be found for other vehicles too. Plus, the game files probably have the models of the AI vehicles already, so that makes the job a lot easier. It would be really cool to have the option to drive a bus or a van as well, with its specific jobs. I was just wondering if this was possible. What do you think?

Zysto Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 It is indeed possible, but a lot of work at the same time too. Some extra vehicles are added in for real operations events. but i don't know if those would be in an usable state for the whole multiplayer. So yeah, it is indeed possible that they will implement more things, but it probably will take a while. You could also make a suggestion about it, but look out first if there is this kind of suggestion already if you do so Best Regards Zysto Have a nice day!

Granite [SVK] Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 This has been already suggested and rejected many times. If this si suggestion, it's in the wrong section. I don't think this would be really beneficial. First, it took about a year to develop just the scout car, second, we don't need large number of different cars, which would bring tons of bugs, increase download size and slow down updates even more. AI vehicles are different from player vehicles, they are missing lots of things appart from interiors, and the vehicles that event team uses in real operations events are not available to public, probably for a good reason. I admitt, buses could fit in the game, they are just different type of commercial vehicles, but all bus/coach mods I have seen were not really great, or outright horrible. SCS actually used to work on drivable coaches, but last public update on that project was from early 2013. Maybe they have not completely abandoned the idea, since they keep adding purposeless bus stations in every new map expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadCowTransport Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Even just having the scout has been problematic. Since they aren't meant to be driven by the player, the way their physics work literally knocks the trucks out of the way like they are paper weight. So as far as the game is concerned, a player driving a scout has more physical power than a player driving a truck. Very annoying. Especially considering the scouts drive like they have atari controls so they are already swervy on the roads, nevermind when a bad driver gets behind the wheel of one. You have never truly trucked unless you have trucked with a MAD COW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strad Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Hello, I suggested this a couple months back, I got rejected & the team said that they have no plans to add any new cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. Frames Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I was told TruckersMP has often wanted to make playable A.I. vehicles, especially police cars for GMs. Unfortunately every update SCS releases makes so significant changes to AI cars that it would break the game and take a long time to reimplement for TruckersMP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindowsTen Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 imo it is just possible since the physics would be a little bit weird and this is a trucking game, we should not get too much other vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Quality Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I would have to disagree. The scout is very popular with many people (not just trolls) and it undoubtedly adds to the realism, making the roads feel more realistic, instead of just having trucks on the road. In regards to its physics, they may be slightly unrealistic at times, however if you stick to the speed limit and drive in a safe and defensive fashion, they should be easy to keep under control. I personally think additional vehicles would be great although I understand that FMOD has caused a lot of issues and bugs, even with existing vehicles such as the Scout.

Orovcol Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Some other car brands would be really nice too! Though I do understand the point of a lot of work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
