Hired drivers are more efficient when equipped by good truck

#1 Post by Keldion » 18 Nov 2017 07:11

Hi !

Do anyone know what exacly is a good truck ? It is the value ? The truck analysis ? Because what is best for the player might not be the best for hired drivers, I would really like to know more info on this !

Thanks,

A good truck (for AI) is not a particular truck brand, but the upgrade you give it. AI will earn more money with bigger engine and other specific upgrades.

from where you have this info?
there was once a topic about that already, and if i remember right the result was: it´s doesn't matter which truck and upgrades your driver have.

not really important for me, just wondering. :)

Do you know what are those specific upgrade ? :) Cuz I'm wondering if the cabin or paint does anything for example. Furthermore the chassis which gives the best truck analysis is the taglift, so I'm wondering if it's based on that or if it's based on the value of the chassis.

It was implemented in a long ago update, nothing more was specified than the hired AI drivers will earn more if they "drive" a better truck.

everything matters to a degree. go figure it out .. ;)
Nobody can tell you anything about it. Those who know about it aren't allowed to talk. And those who talk know nothing.

I have tried different strategies with different profiles. Including some with the cheapest truck I can build. All drivers will make money no matter what truck you give them. I just focus on increasing the number of drivers. Remember a drop of water becomes a rain storm with enough drops. Remember the more expensive and powerful the truck, the more fuel and maintenance it will require.
