ATS 1.41 discussion

TrackIR has been the constant. I'd rather change the thing that was just changed back to where it was if possible. I know where to tweak things with SCS files. I don't know anything about changing TrackIR files. Whatever it assigned, I left it alone years ago and its has worked fine. I don't know where to even look but if I did, I'd be royally pissed if I messed up my TrackIR trying to change something that SCS changed in their files. I'd rather change SCS files if I can get it working. I'll figure it out though.

It's simple. I had the same issue as soon as I got TrackIR and could no longer dev console teleport until I switched the keybind. I would rather change the keybind for TrackIR than change stuff in the game.

See the box next to Precision, which is set to delete? Click on that key box and assign to something different. You can do this for center, etc etc.

It's surely no rocket science, and it can always be reverted. But there's another point... if you use TrackIR for other games as well, you might wish to keep its settings or you'll start messing with other games' keybindings too, to compensate TrackIR to compensate ATS/ETS2. I don't know how much of an issue this is.

@ Train horns: Lots of thanks for putting them into the game!
Some issues with SCS' first attempt have been mentioned, I'll add that there's no reverb at all. This makes it sound like it's installed on a hot air balloon high in the air where you can't hear someone speak who's 10 meters away (because of the missing sound reflections). At any rate, all the real life and mod videos above include horn reverb, it just gives you this spatial feeling that makes you think "there's a train somewhere and it's coming closer".
Also the horn should be the loudest sound next to jet noise, it easily drowns out the bell. You made loud ship horn sounds for the ferry cutscenes, here's where loudness is appropriate

I hope the next thing SCS addresses regarding trains is adding the lights required on the crossing arm gates.

When they do that, they should also improve their bounceback animation, because what is supposed to be bouncing now looks like forced shaking.

[snackpack]

is the speed capped at 65 on convoy now?

[ralph_l084]

With today's update all loads are limited to 65 mph while in Convoy.

That's not possible at the moment due to limitations with the modelling software. It's something that's been looked into for quite some time.

I'm seeing this too and I DO NOT like it. Give us the OPTION at least when we host.

Are those loads that are taken in WoT or also Freight Market and Cargo Market?
