I am not here for competition. I made my mod for myself and decided to shared it with everyone else.

sorry for being too harsh with you in my post, sharing with others is nice, but people need to know what is included in your mod. what I don't understand is this:

All these big patches in close succession, hard to keep up!

the 2 files files from your mod, traffic_data,sii and traffic_rules_spawn.sui did not change from 1.31

Hi,

Do you have ETS2? If so, would you interested to make a similar mod for the european counterpart?

I don't have ATS myself but, I just got caught by your presentation of your mod. Don't know how well the ATS behaviour could be translated to ETS2 though, but I could try to make a version of your mod if you can't

Cheers

Thats insane. And completely unrealistic, but if he wants a joke of a game, he is free to do it.

While you mentioned there are still problems, you might want to look into AI behavior rules and try to see if there's any sort of parameter you could adjust in order to avoid situations with highway ramps. On just one trip from Sacramento to San Francisco, I already ran into a completely clogged up highway ramp. The traffic wouldn't move at all for at least several (real time) minutes, while there had been other stops on right-most lane during the trip, those were usually cleared in less than 15 seconds.

IDK about Sacramento or San Francisco, but I lived in the Carolina's and drove into Charlotte to work and there were times when traffic was backed up like that on I-77, especially southbound traffic from Lake Norman [fortunately, I drove in from SC]. A few minute backup seems pretty realistic to me.
