#20 is a marvellous one. I'd keep that and put it on a wall if I were her.

Good afternoon! Can I ask a question? Is everyone having problems with the World Of Trucks website? Is this a known bug or is it intended to be this way? Why do you have to wait for cargo from a specific loading zone from several hours to several weeks?

That's not going to happen -they can't even get the mirrors to work right for goodness sakes :roll:
Counterpoint: in each truck the setting is different for optimal driving experience. So I have to change it either way.

OK, I'll give up on preset anything.
Simply asking why the adjustments could be true to be real life, so they act like how it is in a real-life vehicle with power mirrors or power seats. There's no hand-adjust anything in all of the trucks in both ATS & ETS2. Everything's power operated.
In theory, you should be able to just click on the adjust icon, then that would start mirror travel. It would keep adjusting in that direction until you click on that same adjust icon again to stop the mirror travel. Just like in a real vehicle with power mirrors. The same goes for the power seats.

While we're at it, the F2 upper left and right corner mirrors are nonadjustable. Why?
Yes I know the obvious answer: go to cab view, push your seat back all the way to see both outside mirrors. Yes, this is a quick fix, but pushing your seat all the way back means that you then can't read your gauges and dashboard, and that doesn't fix anything if you drive in external view with the F2 mirrors.
When you drive a double, triple or long articulated, having those adjustable F2 mirrors is a necessity IMO.
The first job is to 'drain the swamp'...although that's kind of hard to do when you're up to your rear end in alligators..

1. When you press any of the mirror buttons, the mirror keeps moving in that direction until you release it, that's how it works in real life.
2. People have been wishing for the UI mirrors to be adjustable (as well as movable and resizable, and contain wide angle mirrors too). They do adjust with the main mirrors to some extent though. Try moving the truck mirrors to some extreme position then to the opposite one and check the UI mirrors each time. You'll see that they follow. They're not adjustable themselves.

Considering how many companies exist in road vehicles; I would not discard the possibility that both of you are partially right. I mean, that some companies configure their mirror interface to operate the way you describe and some other companies configure it the way he describes.

Regardin the presets in the game, I think there's no point of them to be ported to different trucks; after all, as soon as the relative positions of things are different than regarding a different truck, one will have to adjust them anyways. A different history is that we would move between trucks that are the same model; then either the presets to remain or ar least to be able to save them and restore from a presets list would be more than welcome. And that's something that has been requested lots of times too.

Considering they added color presets and lots of other GUI changes long requested (past year they focused a lot on GUI options); I wonder if that suggestion could also arrive SCsoon to the game.
