AI Truck Spawn Ratio Values (Truck Stops + Road Traffic) [NOT A BUG]
AI Truck Spawn Ratio Values (Truck Stops + Road Traffic) [NOT A BUG]
Hello,
With the arrival of 1.41, has anyone noticed that truck stops are only populated with the Kenworth: T680, W900, Peterbilt: 579, and Volvo: VNL 300. I've not spotted a single Freightliner, Mack, International, or Western Star at a truck stop. I'm hoping the developers can look into the ai spawn ratio values (for parked rigs at truck stops and rigs driving the roads) to ensure nothing went bonkers when rolling out 1.41.
I don't have coordinates for this report as this spawn ratio seems to have impacted a large portion of the map. I've traveled these states so far noticing this issue: Oregon, Nevada, Washington, Idaho, and Utah.
Date of Bug Report: 25 July 2021
Game Version: 1.40.1.10s
Operating System: macOS Big Sur Version 11.4
No Mods
Always Reproducible
I've attached 4 photo examples below for your reference:

Hi @Madkine, my original post has been updated to meet the bug reporting process guidelines. Really hoping the developers are able to look into this!

Hi @Madkine, any update as to whether or not the devs were able to look into this report? You can actually reference some of what I mentioned above regarding day cab representation, etc., looking at the photos associated with today's blog post: https://blog.scssoft.com/2021/08/wyomin ... s.html?m=1 —photos 9 and 12 are good examples.
Cheers!

I'm just a moderator of the forum. I can't tell whether the devs have looked at it. Be patient as they'll generally get to everything, but that also doesn't mean it'll be fixed any time soon even if they agree its a bug.

Re: AI Truck Spawn Ratio Values (Truck Stops + Road Traffic)
Evening! I'm bringing this to the top of the bug report thread. It appears there still hasn't been an adjustment made to ai truck spawn rations—truck stops are still only populated with Kenworth, Volvo, and Peterbilt models (primarily day cab models it appears). This example can also be seen in the recent ATS blog posts. In addition, ai truck traffic still isn't as robust as pre 1.41. For example, before the 1.41 update, there was quite a bit more Freightliner New Cascadias on the road—I hardly spot them on the road now and have yet to find one parked at a truck stop. I'm really hoping the devs can look into this report—it would be such a shame to not have proper representation of ATS' new truck models, especially with the new arrival of the International LT.

Adding a few more photo references for this bug report:
Again, there's not one Freightliner, Mack, International, or Western Star at this truck stop.

The "truck_trlr.cheap" set of unit hookups in the "parked_vehicle.sii" file need to be adjusted to include them.
Currently, the allowed vehicle lists for these hookups permit the following trucks:
- Kenworth W900 (3 variants)
- Kenworth T680 (2 variants)
- Peterbilt 579 (1 variant)
- Volvo VNL (2 variants)

Hello,
This is not a bug. It is chosen this way to prevent game performance issues.

I like trains.
...and trucks too.

Thanks, @TruckerDog! Is there any plan to change this in the near future? It seems like such a shame to finally have all of these new trucks in ATS but not have them represented at truck stops—which is another significant part of the in-game trucking experience.
