Special Cargo DLC

[Calzone]

Haven't had issues with being on time so far, but I'm working from longest to shortest route, so that can't be a surprise.

I do wonder how the trailers for the cargo's are chosen though. Why is the 25T Excavator bucket on a 2 bed 4/5 Low Loader, while the 60T Industrial condenser only requires a 1+4 semi low loader? Looking at real life ST trailers, for the excavator bucket a 2 axle low loader or a 3 axle semi low loader would have been plenty. For the 60T Industrial condenser they would probably choose either a 5 or 6 axle semi low loader or a 2 bed 4 low loader.

I'm wondering if the reason for this time discrepancy is due to time zones?

@vulchor. Good question. I noticed that same issue over in ATS. Since time zones, I have been late on some of the heavy hauls. I do take my time as I typically go 60-65mph. I have had (2) lates in 2 weeks than I have had in 3 months that I play ATS consistently. I know SCS made some adjustments for time zones and the new gps arrival time but gesh. I recall use to having like 30mins-1hr left or more at times on some jobs. It sounds like some tweaks are needed because there are many of us that are more cautious than others.

in Europe ?, except for the UK all ingame countries are in one time zone

Go figure that us Americans don't know European Time Zones, lol. The area from the French/Spanish border to the Poland/Belarusian border sure does seem like it would be at least a couple time zones comparing that area to a similar sized area in the US. That's gotta be at least 2000+ km, more than the distance from Denver, CO to Columbus, OH, which is a two hour difference in time zones. Anyway, gotta love when you learn something new every day.

even Portugal has a +1 time zone, this i didnt even knew

[SilvaTrucker]

Yes, Portugal has a different hour.. UTC. In the Summer, we also have UTC+1, but at that time, other countries have UTC+2

If you use the Better flares mod you have your problem there.

Found the culprit..., it was the Whelen Lightbar for 1.30 from the steam workshop causing them to disappear.

[xXCARL1992Xx]

i have this mod installed too and the AI has beacons in my game

[vulchor]

I have the Whelen Lightbar and AI beacons are working too, so I'm not sure that's the problem, mate.

I noticed one weird thing...
I just checked "My Trucks" screen, and it seems ST jobs don't count towards my trucks driven distance.
I bought two new trucks, did ST jobs with them, and they're still at 0. Also all profit numbers are still at 0.
Anyone else having similar issue? BTW, the only mod I have ATM is 50keda's new accessory pack.
EDIT: In driving mode, odometer shows real driven distance.

[xXCARL1992Xx]

i have to correct my statement, my AIs DONT have beacons with the whelen mod on, i tested the ST DLC first with my profile that was more advanced but didnt had the mod activ

now i do my first ST job on my new main profil with the whelen lightbar and the pilot cars dont have beacons on, a shame realy, i dont want to lose the whelen bar but i dont want to drive with beaconles pilot cars either, quite the predicament

edit:

Timon 30 has an update for the Whelen mod to work with the ST DLC but the workshop uploader doesnt want to work properly, so we have to wait
