ETA Info on OnBoard GPS Advisor

[Dome_E39]

Hi,

I tried to implement the ETA information in the onboard navigation system / GPS. I can see the text but the information is not updated. How can I ensure that the ETA information is updated?

I'm new to the modding area of ETS2, if this has already been resolved somewhere, I apologize.

Code: Select all

I've been trying all the time to get the remaining distance into the gps!

How did you manage that it is displayed in your GPs or did you edit the image?

I‘m looking for exactly that as a mod since ever.
Has anyone found a solution?

The KW T680 2022 in ATS has the ETA Info on the onboard GPS. That might be your blueprint for doing it.
Unpack the DLC, check /ui/dashboard/kenworth_t680_2022_gps.sii around line 89-106.
The "ID" used for ETA is 1530 as documented in https://modding.scssoft.com/wiki/Docume ... boards_IDs

If you don't own ATS, here is the relevant code, including the referenced template:

Code: Select all

ui::text_common : _nameless._.eta {
 value: "22:59"
 look_template: txt.kw_t680_2022.infot_eta
 text: ""
 coords_l: 1040
 coords_r: 1223
 coords_t: 145
 coords_b: 80
 area_l: 1
 area_r: 0
 area_t: 0
 area_b: 1
 id: 1530
 layer: 3
 tab: -1
 pointer: -1
 my_parent: _nameless.18c1.86a0
}

# template:
ui::text_template : txt.kw_t680_2022.infot_eta {
	name: "zDB  Kenworth T680 2022 Infotainment ETA"
	text: "<color value=FF00C5F2><align hstyle=center><font face=/font/big.font xscale=3.5 yscale=3.5>%0</font></align>"
}

Note: Remaining distance does not seem to be available as an ID (according to wiki page).
Update Jan 22nd 2024: The ID 1530 is called ETA, but it is "Estimated time TO arrival", giving us the remaining drive time vs what is commonly known in the airline industry as "Estimated time OF arrival".
