Iberia Discussion

[Some newbie driver]

It's a bug. That traffic light pattern can't be used in Spain.

They showed the same bug in a teased video months ago and I warned about them. The place I saw in the video was fixed but it could be another mapper in another place did the same mistake when assigning a cycle to a traffic light he deployed.

Someone asked one of these days how many kms the Iberia DLC have. I did some calculations and my conclusion is the Iberia DLC has about 25600km of roads.

My calculations:
Minutes before the DLC was released i had 93,10% of the map explored (with all previous DLC's and no mods).
After buying the DLC my map explored drop to 73,48%.

Iberia DLC : 93,10 - 73,48 = 19,62%

I made a trip of 300km in a inexplored part of the map of Iberia and the % increased 0,23%.

A quick rule of three:

300 - 0,23
x - 19,62

300 x 19,62 : 0,23 = 25591

Iberia DLC biggest map ever so far.

I've just finished discovering all 49 cities the last being Pamplona and Iberia in my opinion is probably one of the best map dlcs for ets2 and SCS have done such a great job with it, athough im not sure whether I prefer it more than BtBs (my current favourite expansion). I'm still hopeful that there will be some more roads being added in future updates espiecally Pau-Zaragoza. As a general example Toulouse-Zaragoza is almost 9 hours, with a route through the Pyrenees the trip time would be saved by 3-4 hours

In that document with information (previous pages) about Portugal.
The speed limit is 90 km per hour, for trucks with a trailer on the Highways is what is written in our language.

@LopeszTiago the idea to extract the value from map exploration value is good, but the maths with % can't be done that way (the rest you did)

You had 93,10 explored with an amount of X kilometers (the value of all the base map and previous DC you had). Then you had 73,48 of exploration with an amount of X+Y km, being Y the amount for Iberia. You have to do a rule of three calculation and that's assuming the % exploration is directly tied to the road distance. I really doubt that since sometimes roads become explored in both directions and sometimes only in one. Also because all yards and parking lots count for that value and they don't have "length" (unless SCS internally assigns a value for them to do that sum). So, at best we could do an approximation (that could perfectly miss by plus/minus 1.000km or more).

Anyway, whatever, you can't do that kind of maths without knowing the mileage of the whole game before Iberia release. I know the mileage of a few DLC because it was included in their announcements when released. Do somebody has all the values?

Hello i have bug while i end a load. I will receive achievement progress, like if i ended in Salamanca, will get a Kaliningrad progress. Next load i finished in El Ejido and i received many progresses, France cities, Black sea cities, Italy cities. It happens only me?

@Some newbie driver
You are right. Well, but at least 20.000km i think we can consider.

[Some newbie driver]

Yes, probably the amount rounds that number.

13,000 km behind the wheel in Iberia so far. 36 cities discovered, all of them in Spain (I'm saving Portugal for dessert).

I've found plenty of steep roads, nothing massive but they're OK, no one can say it's a flat DLC. Obviously it's our subjectivity what matters when we judge and criticise, we cannot expect any map to be like it is in real life, only to reflect it under its possibilities.

I've liked a lot what I found, there are parts better than others, some things to polish and correct, there are few signals (I like it), only 1 railroad pass discovered by now (yeah).

Another bug I've found (got the location but not the coordinates yet):

This is not a bug, but an outrage They made the índalo without the rainbow! I know they need to keep the polygon number as low as possible, but this borders a casus belli.

@Some newbie driver @LopeszTiago
I ran the numbers:
Let r be the size of the map without Iberia (in km) and i be the size of Iberia (in km).
Based on the numbers of LopeszTiago: 0.9310r = 0.7348(r+i)

Code: Select all

0.9310r = 0.7348(r+i)
0.9310r = 0.7348r + 0.7348i       / - 0.7348r
0.1962r = 0.7348i                 / ÷ 0.7348
0.2670r = i

We also know, that: 0.0023(r+i) = 300

Code: Select all

0.0023(r+i) = 300                 / ÷ 0.0023
r+i = 130,435                     / i = 0.2670r
r + 0.2670r = 130,435
1.2670r = 130,435                 / ÷ 1.2670
r = 102,948                       / r = (1/0.2670)i = 3.7453i
3.7453i = 102,948                 / ÷ 3.7453
i = 27,487

So, Iberia is 27,487 km (assuming no measurement error). Some newbie driver could be right in that though, we don't know for sure if all road sections in the percentage count equally.
