Except the roads are NOT the same as the actual roads.rookie31st wrote: ↑24 Sep 2021 12:42Yeah, meaning elevation data should be scaled the same way. So any hills we have in the game should have the grade same or similar to real life.

Not true,rookie31st wrote: ↑24 Sep 2021 13:34 Rock, as someone who has seen the ATS map inside the map editor (built-in and accessible to anyone), I can assure you that elevations in the ATS correspond with real-life elevations.
It would be even logically impossible to have more uphill road than downhill roads. Any road that goes uphill is going downhill at the same time in the opposite direction of travel. That's kind of obvious.
Re: road topography
There is much more downhill than uphill in ATS. Totally unreal - the ATS roads are nothing like the real roads. They are completely incorrect.bobgrey1997 wrote: ↑25 Sep 2021 00:34 @rock1966 what are you on about?
There is the exact same amount of uphill as downhill, as that is not only the only possibility in reality, but in any form of it we have the technology to mimic. The map doesn't change in real-time to make it so you are always going up hill. The only way you could encounter this behavior is if you drive the road in the uphill direction, then you close the game and either edit the map and create a mod or download a mod that changes that road to reverse the slope, then load the game again and drive the opposite direction.
You probably just notice the uphill more because you are driving an 80,000 pound brick that can't climb for shit. Welcome to trucking.

Re: road topography
Yeah, this is dumb. Can we get this thread locked?
There is NOT more uphill than downhill, you just go slower up the hills. Nothing wrong there. Before you go complaining about the topography, I suggest taking a drive on these roads in reality. I have driven many of the roads shown in ATS in reality, and in the same vehicles ATS has, and I can confirm the roads are correct, as far as the game scale will allow.

Re: road topography
You made another thread regarding this. If you can't find it anymore, it's because I have moved it to graveyard.
Stick to this thread regarding your problem.
That said, have you tried unbind your retarder? Sounds more like you drive with retarder on for me.
