Special Transport DLC
Re: Special Transport DLC
" I would imagine it involves a map editing to set up all the routes, make sure there's no obstacles along the way. "
Moders now can do undrivable trailers (to long, to heavy, etc) and do not care as long as people like and want to use them. Don't you think, that it will look similar, unless it would be required to do modification to map. I guess you can use just default map, without additional scenario, police etc. Only setup 'preplanned' route for pilots and that might work. It won't be as good as DLC, but maybe longer routes are possible that way

Re: Special Transport DLC
Anyone can add cargo the normal way, we've done it for years prior to ST DLC.
But you won't get pilot cars. You'll have to use dev camera/F9 to get past all the obstacles, and in/out of some companies.
IMO if you're not going to do it properly the mod is no good for the average player as not everyone is able/willing to F9 all the time. There's a reason the official jobs are done properly with pre-planned routes.

Re: Special Transport DLC
Correct. And it is even more complicated. There is a new object type, named "trajectory". A bit like the usual AI-lanes, but not intrinsic element of any prefab. Rather to be applied on-spot. At the starting point, at delivery, and wherever in-between where things are tight. This is really hard work. Here is an example from the city of Luxembourg, look for the yellow icons with a 'T':

Al lot of work necessary until this is all fitting. And I wonder how to integrate all this into modded derivations of the original map. To copy this location by location must be a nightmare. I'm really nosy how (and if) Promods is tackling this situation.
Re: Special Transport DLC
That make sense. However, I can see that this DLC is rather unmodable. You can of course take the trailer and add it separately, but as Moh1336 said, without Special Transport features. That seems to be interesting.

Re: Special Transport DLC
I think there's a problem.

Re: Special Transport DLC
The railing wasn't the problem, Squirrel was. He wasn't lined up properly.
I won't say it's not a tight squeeze or that it's not difficult (that's the whole purpose for it to be difficult) but it's doable without clipping if you take it slow and steady and keep an eye on those mirrors.

Re: Special Transport DLC
and be in the right place from the start when the road gets smaller
reverse back and forward will maybe mess it up more
maybe better to recognize when we are able to do this for ourselfs instead of watchin video....
and when the trip gets more difficult maybe there are 300 - 500 miles more than enough lol

Re: Special Transport DLC
Yeah, I can see that If he kept to the right, the box would have passed right over the railing.
