@Timmjimm those are great 1st screenshots :o
Here's me with a not so great screenshot of my Scania R530.
The 530 is probably a little bit too much for a 18 tons load. But i wanted a V8 :D

I took this screenshot when for the first time I managed to park the truck in a pretty tough situation.
It took several deliveries to get a decent ability to handle the trailer in reverse to park it. At present, I still struggle in some situations, but overall, I improved significantly.

@TheClubber The secret is when backing up guide the trailer wheels not the box. Keep an eye on the box, but trailer wheels are more important. ')

First I was told to turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction I usually do when I drive a car (or the truck without the trailer). Indeed, observing the trailer behavior, I noticed it made sense.
Then I understood to turn the steering wheel just the necessary and then to correct the rotation, even turning to the other direction to "straighten" the trailer.
Eventually I got it.
It's really easier to do it, instead of explaining it.
Just try and try. And don't give up.
