ATS 1.44 Discussion

Ok I just saw some but it also tells me that sometimes the game forces us to lower the suspensions otherwise we can't hang, but I haven't had that situation yet lol.

Try with "Advanced Trailer Coupling" on. Especially at firms like Plaster&Sons building sites.

The more I drive in 1.44, the more I appreciate the new highway on-ramps. In the reworked areas of California and at the interchange in Raton, NM, the on ramps have a much more natural flow. They're not overly steep, the curvature is appropriate for the speed, and the acceleration area is nice and long. It's much easier to get up to speed before joining the highway. I'm glad to see these improvements to interchanges, and it makes me really look forward to the interchanges in Montana and Texas.

In game I have always use the shoulder if not enough space, not something I'd recommend for IRL situations though

So, with the dropdecks... I figured out that one needs to be Level 36 as loads do appear for them at about that level.

So just today I was driving on my, admittedly, modded profile, on I-5 NB through Corning, CA. An AI car ahead of me in the right slammed on its brakes and slowed to about 20mpg as it crossed beneath the overpass. I couldn't see any traffic passing above, but the car in the left lane didn't slow and none of the other cars behind me slowed down. I'm gonna check this out on my vanilla profile once I finish this deliver and if I can catch it I'll make a bug report. Just thought I'd bring this up here though because I feel like I've been seeing this a lot more in 1.44.

[parasaurolophus67]

never had that. Could be mod related.

[Bedavd]

It's not, I've just tested it and saw it again on my vanilla profile so I'll make a report now.

[supersobes]

I've noticed the same thing with the traffic ever since 1.44 released. I've also seen traffic in the main travel lanes come to a complete stop when they "see" traffic in a weigh station or rest area adjacent to the highway.

[parasaurolophus67]

Oh THAT I did seen but only once so far and reported it.

[Bedavd]

Oh interesting. When I looked I didn't see any reports related to the issue I was seeing, so I made new ones for both the I-5 weigh station and the overpass. Hopefully SCS knows about them and they'll be fixed soon.
