There is a place where job trailers spawn and if you have advanced trailer coupling enabled you can't get your truck under the trailer to engage the trailer hitch. This is at Coastline Mining near Kayenta but I assume all Coastline Mining's are the same. If you enter a CM company you turn right after driving over the decorative scales, the road bends left and at your right you can follow a path to the highest reachable side road right at the back of the CM, that is where the trailer spawns and it points towards the front.
I haven't had any other trailer spawn there for me to try so I can't say if this was reproducible other than loading the game and taking the same job again. No mods installed. Cargo is sand with the dumper trailer.

Screenshot with GPS on after coupling, I might have moved a meter forth or back here though.

Re: Advanced trailer pickup problem at Coastline Mining.
Actually I admit it was rather hard, but it is possible, you might have to use slightly violent approach but I managed to preserve both trailer and truck, inflicting no damage to neither of them. So I am afraid I have to say it is not a bug.
But it was harder than usual, I give you that .

Re: Advanced trailer pickup problem at Coastline Mining.
I managed to eventually get it by using the simple trailer coupling, let's hope I get more luck next time. Still thanks for checking it out.Loutis wrote:Actually I admit it was rather hard, but it is possible, you might have to use slightly violent approach but I managed to preserve both trailer and truck, inflicting no damage to neither of them.

Put a small pile of potatoes near the kingpin, that way as the back wheels roll over them it lifts the 5th wheel slightly.
